This is what the Microsoft system requirements page for Windows 11 says

Windows 11 Pro for personal use and Windows 11 Home require internet connectivity and a Microsoft account during initial device set-up.

I guess you were building machines with a Windows Enterprise license. This would explain why you had the option to setup an offline account.

Without new programming languages we would still be using FORTRAN, AGOL and LISP.

One reason why new languages are developed is the creation of a "Domain-specific language" or DSL. See Wikipedia for more information.

Programming languages are tools you pick the one for the job, there are situations where Java's garbage collection could be a problem so it would not the right tool to use.

These are updates that will come through the repo. See the release note that is referenced by phoronix.

Please note that the point release does not constitute a new version of Debian 12 but only updates some of the packages included. There is no need to throw away old "bookworm" media. After installation, packages can be upgraded to the current versions using an up-to-date Debian mirror.

I use GIMP rarely but a quick search shows that you can use Shift-click to force straight lines or Shift-Ctrl-click to limit both the angle as well. https://thegimptutorials.com/how-to-draw-rectangle-square-box/

I half-remembered the Shift-click.

I've used a Brother business AIO Inkjet for some years without any problems.

This seems to have worked for the older devices, but I don't know about the newer devices, for example far as I can tell the "Flint" doesn't have mainline support despite being over a year old.

OpenWRT support on GL.inet devices seems to be complex. The following is my understanding of the situation.

GL.inet have an OpenWRT fork on GitHub https://github.com/gl-inet/openwrt This is what is installed on GL.inet devices.

The OpenWRT developers in due course try to work out how to port mainline OpenWRT onto OpenWRT onto GL.inet devices.

Have a look some of material on the reading list on Politician Compass for left libertarian it may help you.

When people talk about libertarians they are almost always talking about right wing (Ayn Rand) libertarians. They get attention because they are having direct impact on our current politics.

Have a look at the reading list for right libertarians at "The Political Compass" https://www.politicalcompass.org/libRightBooks and you will be be to come to your own view. You might want to take the Political Compass test.

I found this article on what happened when a town became a Libertarian experiment interesting - https://newrepublic.com/article/159662/libertarian-walks-into-bear-book-review-free-town-project
