As long as your kids currend and future friends will be on Windows there will be potential issues. There’s also the matter of familiarizing yourself with an environment that monopolyze the professional environment…

It says they do but they kinda mostly don’t. I’m playing from linux on my old steam windows folder on a very much NTFS drive and I never had an issue.

Dual boot 100% no doubts. Don’t unilaterally impose Linux on your Son, he will likely be cut off from many socialization on current and future popular multiplayer games that may or may not run smoothly on Linux.

Obsidian with calendar plugin here.

My granfather’s watch.

Don’t other people’s banks have web portals?

Sadly, some finance services are app only, app-that-don’t-run-without-Play-Store only.

It souds like this is literally your first step outside of windows.

Don’t listen to any of these people, stick to dual boot, especially if your quality of life (I mean your hobbies) are tied to mastery of a known ecosystem of specific softwares.

Linux can work but you will need to compromise, and you will royally fuck up and unless you are embracing troubleshooting as an hobby you won’t like it.

Dual booting allows you to have a safe harbor for when things go south.

I’ve had a dual boot for around 6 years and only this year I have, not deleted windows but set up my boot to default to linux (it used to be last OS booted).

I had to give up the quality of some audio filters for streaming, I coud not for the life of me figure out how to run a couple of specific games, I’m unable to uncompress big .exe archives (yarrr) in certain specific disks and after a year of smooth daily sailing I had my drivers go nuts and had to dive in and fix it, doing research on old shitty reliable windows.

Wifi in apps that have no reasonable need for it, because it’s basically location.

There’s a spectrum, but if I were to map all and every dark pattern, random loot surely qualifies.

If a fight is compelling it has its own reward, random drop chances (especially abysmal drop-rate) will have you mindlessly repeating it no matter the quality of the boss design.

including those yet to exist.

That, believe it or not, is jail.

On the one hand, better chatGPT than the guy she’s cheating with, on the other hand, if you can tell how inappropriate that is and she can not, maybe you are not meant for each others?

I suspect you may have gone at it in a bit of a brutal way that I’m not sure is entirely effective, but then again I guess in this community there are better judge for that than myself…

How did you degoogle exactly?

I flashed a degoogle OS (Lineage) and immediatly flashed MicroG, before the first boot.

I was under the assumption this was the proper way to do it, but it’s been years at this point, maybe I misremember or maybe stuff have changed.

I have MicroG and don’t get those. I’m not sure it’s what you are looking for…

I see where you are coming from but degoogled chromium is ridden of the “bad” stuff that Chrome adds, it does nothing to actively fix what is unhardened in both Chrome and Chromium.

It’s also the more relevant criticism, the entanglement of Brave with crypto, but within the chromium ecosystem, it IS the best you can get.

I use arch firefox btw.

Absolutely not. It’s the least shitty Chromium based browser by far. https://www.privacyguides.org/en/desktop-browsers/#brave

Yes.

Let’s simplify the “riddle”.

It states: a number is 1 plus half that number.

What is a quantity that added to “half a number” gives the number? What do you add to 0,5 to make 1?

The other half.

So we go back to the original statement: “a number is 1 plus half that number” and change it to “a number is half that number plus half that number”.

If you go back and forth between the two you may notice that one the one side there is “1” and on the other “half that number”.

$1 is half the cost, what is the total cost?

We leave the last step to the readers.

Something plus half the price is the full price.

So something is half the price as well.

1 is half the price.

I work with engineers, a senior likes to ask the same question to people on their first day (how much does a brick weight that weight 1Kg plus half the brick) and I shit you not these people second guess themselves all the time.

Given, it’s probably the pressure of being new to the job and having this guy put you on the spot, but I find this “riddle” really really easy so, maybe, go get that degree?
