They are a relatively established game storefront, and have been at it for over a decade. Same Corp that's also behind CD Projekt Red.

In the end, any storefront that distributes executables could in theory distribute malware, but I'd honestly be more worried about steam, since their publishing process seems a lot more automated, with less oversight.

Do people really see kerrygold as a premium option? I haven't bought butter in a long time, but I always saw kerrygold as overpriced mass market shit.

I don't think it's necessarily worth it for anyone currently on Linux, but if they provide support and a warranty, it might be helpful for some folks who aren't that computer savvy, but still sick of Windows.

I'd argue that gog might be a bit better, since you can download executables from their website, and then use them offline, without telemetry. But still, I think neither are necessarily all that relevant here.

Yeah, OK, I was thinking of my sister, also around that age, but I guess I have a bit of a "cool older brother" bonus, that her mother might not necessarily have.

Did manage to get her into Linux, though, so I see that as a win.

I guess you could install cockpit (via Terminal, sorry, but it's pretty straightforward and there are good guides). After that, you could use the cockpit web interface to deploy docker/podman containers. It's a bit clunky sometimes, but it does the job purely in UI.

You can also manage updates, backups, etc via cockpit if you install the required modules.

As base, I'd use any stable Linux distro that's reccomended for server use.

Uh, if he's your son, you might be able to teach him? Like, without my parents encouraging it, I don't think I'd have learned half as much about computers as I did in my childhood/teens.

Really depends early GenZ was born in the late 90s/early 00s, and I can Attest that there's quite a few who're pretty good with computers. Mostly depends on what you got in touch with at home.

Now, Gen Alpha, I'd say, is on average proper fucked regarding computer knowledge.

Or, more to the point, the generational blocks don't really matter much for this, but there's certainly a declining aclemation with basic OS concepts.

I don't like buying perishable stuff without having a plan for it, because I know I'll forget about it half the time.

Sure, that's why I use it. My point was more that improved battery performance, at least to that degree, is a your-specific-usecase thing, not a Graphene thing.

I do that all the time. I have 4 super markets I can easily walk to, so I usually just get the stuff I need for whatever I'm gonna cook. Don't usually do the whole "weekly shopping" thing. Makes it more annoying to plan for when you need fresh stuff, and how long you can store it.

If I already have some of the ingredients I need, it isn't that uncommon that it's less than 10 items total.

Makes sense, but with that setup, a different custom rom on a phone with better life would deliver even better results.

I like my pixel, I like Graphene, but I still feel battery is a weak point.

Show me a Pixel with two days of battery life with heavy use. My 8a lasts about a day, sometimes less. Similar reports for a friends 8a and my brother's 7a.

I use atomic distros on my server and a media centre, but don't see any reason to do it on my main systems. Stability is fine, and atomic distros make said tinkering more difficult.

On the one hand, I don't doubt it's gotten worse. On the other hand, I've always heard stories about US immigrations being unreasonable, entirely humourless, and possibly detaing you or sending you back for the smallest mistake or omission.

Apartment person here. I use electric. An electric train, that is.

I mean, I get all that, but even if we leave out the conditions that might or might not be present in the prison, and how many of the inmates might be innocent (how would we know, without the possibility of due process), I don't see how anyone could justify rounding up people from the US, who where in many cases in the immigration system (meaning not "illegal immigrants" in the classical sense) in the streets and sending them to a prison in a different country, with no legal representation, no contact, and no knowledge of what will happen to them long term.

It's practically government sanctioned kidnapping.

What is "zero idleness" but forced prison labour, and what is forced prison labour if not slavery?

Also, while I don't disagree that it used to be worse for many El Salvadorians, that doesn't mean one should be silent about the total lack of any process with which alleged gang members are being imprisoned there, seemingly for life. If you want to claim that's worth it, that's your prerogative, and as someone who's never been to El Salvador, neither before nor after the crackdown, I don't think I can judge it. Still, you can't ignore the issue.

In my experience in Germany it's just available. Only for the business focused models, but still.
