  • Oh, yeah, I understood that - it was the fact that this is for the everyday “consumer” (for consumers) tech that inspired the comment, that regular folk will get up & personal with such tech soon & make it a regular mundane chore.

    I could think about how much electricity an electric plant produces (& couldn’t comprehend it in daily terms that would make sense), but sitting in a charging car you get a much clearer picture of what that means, of how much energy (and “how much driving”) is running through that cable every second, etc.








  • … that is def not my case, openSUSE is saving me a lot of time.

    I’ve switched all my fiends & family (desktops) to Tumbleweed like 5 years ago bcs I don’t have to do any maintenance ever (not even customisation at the beginning, beyond setting them accounts). It has always been stable with exception that they only became “almost” out-of-the-box gaming friendly only in recent year or two.

    Tumbleweed is just there, always updated, and feels nice. Oh, it’s not the quickest boot maybe?

    Previously (15+ years, maybe 20 my parents) I had my family on Debians/Ubuntus which were stable but always very fiddly to distro upgrade, I don’t even remember what went wrong with old Fedora, but I changed it back in less than a year (almost 10 years ago, not relevant).
