As much as I lean to hate this despite it not even affecting me as a Linux user...

I’m going to structure this as a Q&A with myself now, based on comments online

What is that? "I'm going to pretend to ask questions that I'll then answer myself the way I think it'll outrage that most people do I'll get a lot of clicks on this shitty article"? What crappy excuse for content creation is this? I hate it.

I want to get off Mr. Bones' Wild Ride

but I have the impression that people sing easily “Deutschland über alles”.

What the fuck?

Dude, please connect to some Germans that aren't Nazis.

Liked your comment so much I just did it there.

If the alternative is Windows which is increasingly filled with ads or Linux which shifts the burden of computer administration to a user who might not have a clue about what they're supposed to do if their WiFi doesn't "just work", paying for a managed walled garden that doesn't try to install candy crush without you asking for it isn't such a bad option.

I'm not sure if I'm convinced. Could you post a screenshot of a solved captcha to prove it?

^/s^

Nice. So, I have an encfs folder on a cloud storage. Any way to use vaults to access it? Haven't even found a way to load existing folders that were set up with vaults, let alone using something else...

What shielded bases were there in the books?

I mean, there was the "shield wall", but that was just mountains that protected Arrakeen from the desert.

You bet they could place shortcut icons to websites on a grid of icons? Pretty bold statement there.

The touch pads are the killer feature, imho. They are the key to making mouse centric games playable. I wouldn't want to touch eg stellaris with an 11 feet pole with joysticks or touch screen but sank so much time into the game on the deck.

I mean, there's also so much other stuff... The device running on Linux and giving unrestricted access to the desktop. The software being great. The case being screwed, not glued. Valves super relaxed stance on people modifying the hardware. It all adds up. But from a purely user centric pov, I wouldn't buy a PC based handheld without the pads after I saw how well they work.

There are enough web based office instances running for Linux to be functional in that regard.

Photoshop on the other hand...
