Ah, the city of Volos, who elected the same mayor three times in a row.

The mayor, Achileas Beos, of course denied any responsibility and blamed everyone else.

He’s also a nightclubs owner and sports team owner convicted and jailed for setting up match results for betting schemes, has publicly beat up a bunch of people and threatened to beat up a bunch more and when confronted about it by the media said “So what, you want us to behave like fa***ts?”.

Last year, under the same guy’s watch, there was a massive flood and the response to it was abysmal, he did the same thing, blamed everyone and yet people of Volos still support him. If the election was today he’d still mayor tomorrow.

Mainly Kali for my needs, completely hassle-free on VMware but any ARM version should work.

Want me to try a particular distro as a test?

I dunno if that counts, but I was given a Macbook Air M2 from work that I didn’t need and I’ve been happily running macOs on it for simple daily use.

Whenever the situation requires Linux I fire up one of 3 distros I have as a VM and they work like a charm. I pass-through one of the USB ports to the VM and it’s basically an M1 with Linux at that point in terms of performance (well not really, but it’s very smooth, no complaints).

Might wanna go that route instead, just run macOs natively and your favorite distro as a VM.

“We are the default country” lol get outta here!

You’ve been down voted to shit in this whole thread, I wonder who “everyone else” is exactly?

I don’t see USA mentioned anywhere in that comment. I assumed it was a joke about the “overly polite Canadian” stereotype.

YOU assumed it was about the states cause you know the average American is batshit crazy

One way to do it is for each company to develop their own flavor to ship with their laptop, in much the same way phone manufacturers just modify Android and ship it.

As an example, check out System76 and their laptops featuring their Pop!_OS distro, which is very user friendly and stable in my experience.

Am Greek, most buildings and almost all businesses are air conditioned. I would expect any country neighboring Africa directly across the Mediterranean to be the same, at least in their southernmost regions

We’re in the days of Intel’s top chips degrading themselves in a matter of weeks due to thermals being simply unmanageable under anything less than a beefy 360mm AIO or custom loop cooling at stock settings

Hello my friends, my name is Amram Eimnan and today we learn how to defeat missiles

Am sysadmin, can confirm I don’t wanna learn it.

Non tech savvy people don’t install windows or macos either. Everything comes pre-installed with the machine you buy.

If you make it to the point where you kinda know what Rufus and an iso file are, Pop! OS and Mint are easier to install than Windows.

I suppose a program could be made that partitions your OS drive and installs a distro on the second partition with a dual boot selection screen on next boot, but if you’re at the point where you’re curious enough about Linux to try it, you’ve probably learned enough to use Rufus and an iso file.

The answer is system integrators need to pre install and actively support one of the more friendly distros (like Valve with SteamOS on the deck) or it’ll never catch on.

Simple users don’t care what OS you present them with, as long as it’s already there and it’s easy to use.

If nothing else it would be fucking hilarious observing the interaction between a state of the art LLM with ML baked into it and an 80 y/o grandpa who just shit his pants and needs help

Am Greek. Used to think it said Φisneφ.

They know how it works, but they also know the average person won’t go against a billionaire and the army of lawyers they can afford. It’s a scare tactic.

Alright, fair enough.
