I disagree. Native packages are still a bit more hassle-free, but snaps have gotten really good by now. And you can do some things that debs can’t, like setting up an entire nextcloud installation with a four-words-long terminal command.

also get a dumb tv ofc
edit: despite what people will say, ubuntu is still a rock solid distro. Alternatively, tumbleweed is brilliant too.
I’m sure it’s not literally all of them, and it’s almost never preinstalled. But available in the repositories.
Ubuntu has zero telemetry if you flick the switch they show you right after installation. And steam is proprietary software, yet basically every distro ships it in their repos. Your points make no sense.
I feel like it’s more important than ever to call out creators that still produce high quality content. So, if you care about gaming / PC parts as a whole, give gamers nexus a shot.
this is insane uplift for an OS-update. the fact that it also boosts Ryzen 7000 and barely affects intel makes this even more interesting
I see, they don’t state anywhere that the results of the screenshot analysis are never transmitted to them.
Good, but as pointed out by another user, you might need to reconfigure grub after deleting the windows partition. Or save your files on an external media and reinstall debian over the entire disk if you don’t want to mess around.

No internet or cloud connections are required or used to save and analyze snapshots. Your snapshots aren’t sent to Microsoft. Recall AI processing occurs locally, and your snapshots are securely stored on your local device only.
That’s better than I thought. For the moment.
It can, but that’s not what I meant. When booting linux, do you see the blue windows menu where you can decide between debian and windows or does linux just start? If it just starts, you can just delete the windows partition (make sure to check that all important data has been copied to linux or you will loose it!). If unsure which partition it is, it’s the one with ntfs as the file system.
You could use GUI partitioning tools to just remove the windows partition and expand your debian installation. Did you install an extra bootloader for linux?
Did they make hard commitments to 100% keep the data local and never use it to spy on you? What does their privacy policy say? Come on dude, we’re talking about microsoft. You’re more likely to receive millions from a nigerian prince than to get some privacy from them.
Is it that bad? I run gnome on two 4k monitors with 100% scaling and large text and it’s great
You could do anal and read up on laws, just maybe not at once
I always worder if these sums include the fee of the lawyer. Would really be a much smaller payout if true.
In this horrible summer heat, there are few feelings more satisfying than a fridge-cold beer after a long day of work. But it’s hard to stop after the first.
It used to be a major pro-AMD reason for me too, but it’s become irrelevant since pluton. Weird thing is, pluton was announced with much fanfare for Ryzen 6000, but I’ve not heard about it since.
Edit: I just read up on this topic again and found out that both purism and system76 disable the Intel ME in all their products (don’t know if all of it is disabled, since it normally controls a lot of necessary components)
Edit 2: they can either remove most of its code from the flash, or use a disabling system that Intel had literally developed for the NSA.
Difference is that Intel’s Management engine can be controlled via the network whereas AMD’s platform security processor is local-only.
The much bigger problem is Microsoft’s Pluton coprocessor, which they plan on making mandatory for using windows in the future.
Agreed
