I mean, when I started using Linux I also tried to avoid the CLI, and I was successful at that with Mint for quite a while. Actually, updating Mint in GUI is faster. I didn’t find a way to enable parallel downloads for apt like for pacman, but the GUI does just that.

Very much possible nowdays. I haven’t even switched from Windows, I got a first computer, didn’t know the difference between Linux Mint and Windows, but I found Mint easier to use. Windows confused me with separate settings and control panel, and then some guide asking me to do woodoo in scary looking registry editor…

Oh, you can vote whether it should be opt-in or opt-out.
Oh, voting requires “Trust level 1”.

Anyway, I may stop donating to Manjaro due to this. Now I just go with Arch anyway. archinstall even makes it quick to setup a VM.

Especially if shops like Tesco as much as double your prices without loyalty cards. Tesco is the worst, haven’t been there for months (as a customer).

Tesco Clubcard, Kaufland Card, Billa Bonus club, Lidl Plus (app required), Coop Jednota Club.

There is no alternative. Supermarket chains killed most small shops. Oh, and you may still need an app to manage it even if you have a plastic card.

Mind explaining why use the content warning for this?

I get it when it’s used in some larger text perhaps with possibly triggering content, but this seems unnecessary. These domains don’t link to anything else than cock.li and airmail.cc either.
Warnings that are overused loose value.

If you’re already using Ubuntu, I don’t think it’s worth it. They’re fairly similar. Then again, I didn’t even get to install Ubuntu in the first place, the installer kept crashing.

Unless the laptop is a potato and you don’t have a better computer, you can try Mint, or any other distro in a VM to see for yourself.

And welcome to Linux. If someone recommends you Arch Linux, Gentoo or LFS as other newbie-friendly option, it’s a joke.

It was supposed to be released in October already, but it seems there’s absolutely no new info about it. Perhaps the idea got abandoned like P18K and P16K.

Unless they’re simultaneously connected you could share the same private key in all of the configs.

Except the 5 device limit. With OVPN it means 5 connected devices, with WG it means 5 registered public keys.

Say you use the official Mullvad app and also setup some 3rd party WG client on your phone. That’s now taking up 2 devices. Or perhaps you do have 6 devices, but you never have more than 2 of them running at once. With WG, that’s still 6 devices regardless of them being connected or not, while with OVPN it will indeed be just 2 devices.

When you live with someone else who insists on you putting together and decorating the Christmas tree and gets mad at you when you won’t do it just for you to have to repack all that piece of shit into boxes mid-January.

Seriously though, my country’s government used similarly weak password in the past: https://spectator.sme.sk/c/20002161/security-bureau-hacked.html

The Slovakian (SR) National Security Bureau (NBU) has used the username “nbusr” with password “nbusr123”.

Only if others require me to participate in that. I don’t like it myself.

What exactly do you mean by that? I don’t know who that is.

Definitely NSFL, and as there’s no such tag, NSFW should do for now.

Don’t worry, it’s probably going to be even more locked down.

I miss Android 7 and prior. The only improvement I see is permission management and UI on tablets (dp >= 600). And perhaps app updates without prompting user from 3rd party app stores (like F-Droid), but I don’t like automatic updates anyway.

Which is why I said power rating as opposed to voltage or current.
