This meme made me feel better about myself. Been copy pasting from Stack overflow for more than a decade, vibe coding was a real step up for me.

Not quite there yet, still waiting on the holographic AI hardware design. Coming soon I hear.

Always making friends on the bus..

I have one in my wallet - just in case someone wants to steal my phone and I somehow have time to remove my SIM and SD before they take it.. optimistic I know

Don't tell my wife! I've been looking for an excuse to move her onto Linux for years. I'm the IT guy for our company and frankly if something goes wrong with Windows I'm stuck.

Her laptop "won't work" with Windows after October, ok?

If you don't open external files there is no problem? We paid for it and it does the mail merge so that's what we use. Been looking for Linux alternative with the same functionality and no luck so far, LibreOffice is almost but not quite good enough. Nobody else does mail merge from spreadsheet?

Also I'm guessing it will be more secure on wine

I looked it up there was an issue with btrfs just after they started Linux version which was why I stopped using it. That was a long time ago you are right, seems to be resolved now.

If it's anything like Linux desktop the apps you really need (for me, WhatsApp) are going to be available in 10 years. After that it's a short slide to "if you don't have Linux (why not?) by the way here's how to install on android/iOS if you must."

At least that's my experience as an early Linux on desktop adopter. Yes Linux is a niche thing in mobile at the moment but the truth is the developers are the ones who make it happen and they are already there.

This is actually a big comedy moment in South Africa - look up "Die Groot Tsek" on social media!

I have this exact situation with my wife's work laptop, which can't upgrade to windows 11. The requirements are pretty simple, something that runs Chrome and Dropbox as well as Microsoft Office 2007.

I'm going with Mint Cinnamon for her (I use arch & kde btw) - was pleasantly surprised to see Dropbox now has Linux support actually, haven't looked at it for years!

Almost everything she uses her computer for runs in Chrome.

If you are worried about disk space don't use backup on btrfs though it fills up yr drive I never encrypt my drive but maybe you should Manjaro is great though!

No it's running Windows game on Linux so cracked versions work just as well. Don't ask how I know that..

Which Minecraft mod pack is that from?
