I’m a fan. It took me a few weeks of properly rating (raising, lowering, and blocking) to get truly customized results. Once I did though, I found I’m able to research far faster than before. I’ve also become a fan of their AI assistant. It has multiple llm’s to choose from and is more private than using them directly.

I personally use the Comet and have had a great luck with it.

I don’t have a specific model, but in general I’ve had success with Epson Tank printers and Linux. It opens up the ability to use third party ink easily. I’ll use the Epson Connect feature for scanning (to email in my instance, but there’s other options) without needing to input a server address or install anything on the OS. The main caveat, like most ink printers, they work best if you print often. This is to cut down on dry out and manual print head cleaning. In my experience using them weekly is enough.

This has become my go to OS for less technical users. I’ve even had a couple go for the Pro version so they could get the pre configured macOS like desktop.

Not sure if it’s available where you’re located, but did find this listing. https://a.co/d/bztqux3

I wonder how cloud accessibility plays into this. In the past if I had a dedicated windows app I might typically have maybe a hundred windows desktops accessing onsite servers. Nowadays I can replace that with thin clients and cloud based RDSH servers.

Aliens ended the franchise. Slightly different answer, nothing occurred between the release of Predator and Prey.

I’d likely use a case in this instance. I remember dropping the Pixel 5 several times for that reason.

Knowing it’s so easy to repair, do you think it’s worth bothering with a case and/or screen protector?

Have you had to replace any parts yet?

If you’re looking for a challenge you could try FreeBSD. While not Linux it’s still unix like and can provide a great learning experience. I believe they have retroarch in their packages, and I’ve seen videos of people getting Steam working. They provide excellent documentation on their OS as a whole.

Do movies getting the Rifftrax treatment count? If so, then Birdemic.

Lots of great options here. Just wanted to add it may be worth using KDE if they’re transitioning from Windows. I try and get the look visually close to what they previously had so they’re not fighting against muscle memory.

I’m fortunate to live in an area with two wired broadband providers. And wouldn’t you know it, they don’t have to enforce data caps here for some reason. I’m sure it has nothing to do with the fact that a customer can leave whenever they want.

I think it depends on your use case. For my gaming desktop I use Fedora to get the latest packages. For professional scenarios I’ve been using Almalinux the past couple of years. It started life as a RHEL clone, but since RHEL changed their code distribution rules I see them more parallel in the stream rather than down. It’s completely free, but there are options to purchase support and live kernel patching if required.

If you want to go the Suse route, Opensuse Leap will give you the closest experience to Suse enterprise. I believe Suse actually offers conversion tools to convert Leap to the full enterprise OS. I don’t have personal experience with it, but have considered it in the past and this is the information I recall.
