I agree. However there are some gems. Got one good piece of advice from https://lemmy.world/u/BombOmOm and now I’m on the Linux train (at least on one laptop anyway).

I do like the control aspect. I also really enjoy how clean it feels compared to windows.
If it works well (and I mean very well), I will consider doing the same on my main machine. The one the family uses. Maybe just set it up so I boot both windows and Linux… Either way. Very happy with the results so far.
Back to this comment to report that I took the dive. I have a second laptop that wasn’t getting used so I wiped it and installed Linux mint. Love it so far and no issues with any of the basics. Took me all of 1 hr to get up and running.
Maybe. I use Settings for quick things like Bluetooth pairing, changing monitor settings, etc. I do use Control Panel a decent amount and would never want it deprecated though.
Interesting. I had no idea, thanks for the in depth explanation. So in this case it probably played no or very little role. Things are just often more murky than we make them seem when commenting online is more the general idea I was trying to convey.
How could you know this so definitively?
Yes. Apparently a single senator from the above users comment.
Not like I understand Australian politics but one senator could be an influence.
It’s noteworthy that it doesn’t appear black canceled the tour just out of nowhere. I think they were getting pressure from the government based on what I’ve read.
It’s risk mitigation for the banks. You don’t have to put 20% down, but generally you’ll have to pay an additional insurance (PMI) if you don’t.
I work in analytics. I usually enjoy the work. It’s fun showing people insightful things, but it can be a drag when folks don’t listen.
Coffee beans are seeds from a fruit.
Good to know and thanks for the tip. This was back when I did more on a personal computer, but I remember spending hours just trying to get software to work. Again, this isn’t something I need to worry about today, but getting Octave (free version of Matlab) to work on Linux was a nightmare.
Don’t disagree, it’s just fascinating to see it all play out.
It’s interesting how ahead their government is with some things and behind it is with others (generally speaking they have a lot of crime in their larger cities).
This feels like me. But I read somewhere that even if I am on windows 11 ,my current laptop won’t have this feature. So I think I’m okay for now. Maybe my next one will be Linux.
I’ve used Linux before and I kind of hated it. It was fine for me when I had time to fuck around with every setting and go into rabbit holes. But I don’t know if it’ll work on a family device. I have 1 laptop in the house and myself, my wife, and kid all use it. Other than that, all devices are just tablets or phones.
We use the laptop for browsing, casting, document editing, and that’s about it I think. So since it’s that simple, I would hope Linux would “just work”. But we’ll see on my next device.
A Tolkien based active community would be great. Reddit had/has a few that were fairly active. There are communities here but really not active at all.
Also wish the NBA community was more active - quite frankly surprised it’s not.
Took me a minute to figure out exactly what this even was. This is pretty cool. Had no idea such tech existed.
An AI chatbot for a cloud service I use helped me find the right documentation for setting up SSO. It’s not all bad. But the way it’s pushed is bad.
