You didn't ask for a video game, but the first piece of media I thought of was, Yakuza Kiwami and Yakuza Kiwami 2. They literally made me cry at some scenes because of how wholesome parts of them are. He kinda adopts a little girl, and starts an orphanage. There's even a section of the game where you just walk around town holding her hand. Although the game has a lot of mature elements and is not entirely about this.

I can't really think of many parent/child wholesome media, but Mr Rodgers is something I enjoy watching with my daughter.

Edit, I just remembered, I Love Lucy is pretty wholesome with a parent child relationship

When I used windows, I would have issues every other update.

With Linux it's like once a year, unless I do something stupid to my own system with sudo.

I still remember all the time I sunk trying to remove candy crush soda saga from the enterprise windows 10 image I cloned to all office computers back when I worked IT. That shit was basically a part of the core OS.

I did in fact get fired shortly after rebuilding all the on prem servers to be linux and introducing Linux mini-PCs which could be used to rdp into windows cloud pcs.

That was the last time I had to work as a windows admin so it was great to get fired and move onto full time Linux work.

I'm not pretending anything. I literally did what I said and gave it to my grandma and I hooked her up with a local computer repair guy that will do house calls and knows Linux because I live very far away. This worked well for 10 years or so until she died.

Im not saying people don't have issues with Linux. It's still a computer.

Are you saying people don't run into issues using windows?

If you need windows for very specific thjngs, I get it. But for most people, if they had a local PC shop that they could trust with Linux issues, then it would be as convenient as windows if not more.

I gave my grandma a Linux, she had no idea. All she needed was a web browser that didn't feed her ads and give her issues. Fedora with KDE was super simple for her to figure out how to use and actually had better accessibility features for her. And it was free.

Linux is actually pretty noob friendly nowadays. And if you don't want to mess with it yourself, you can buy computers with Linux preinstalled today.

I get that sometimes people just want to complain and not solution. But like, using windows and other surveillance capitalism adjacent products is a path to fascism so like...maybe people should just, critically evaluate their problems and think of solutions every now and then?

Caporegime (en.wikipedia.org)
 

A caporegime or capodecina, usually shortened to capo or informally referred to as "captain", "skipper" or "lieutenant", is a leadership position in the Mafia (both the Sicilian Mafia and Italian-American Mafia). A capo is a "made member" of an Italian crime family who heads a regime or "crew" of soldiers and has major status and influence in the organization. Caporegime is an Italian word, used to signify the head of a family in Sicily. In general, the term indicates the head of a branch of an organized crime syndicate who commands a crew of soldiers and reports directly to the don (boss) or an underboss or street boss. The shortened version "capo" has also been used to refer to certain high-ranking members of Latin American drug cartels.

 

Chris Christie: “This is no longer, the Department of Justice. This is no longer the premier prosecuting office in America. What it is now, is a Caporegime, who goes out and executes hits when directed by the Don to do so. That’s what it is.”

Feds delayed medics who had come to pick up an injured protester. Then, according to confidential incident reports, the agents became aggressive.

“I then placed the ambulance into park, took my foot off the brake, undid my seat belt and opened the driver’s side door. I looked up and suddenly the entire group of officers…were crowded around the open car door, some of them leaning forward towards me, inches from my face.”

An agent, the driver recalled, “pointed his finger at me in a threatening manner and began viciously yelling in my face, stating, ‘DON’T YOU EVER DO THAT AGAIN, I WILL SHOOT YOU, I WILL ARREST YOU RIGHT NOW.’”
