Yes, instead you’ll have a text saying “To jump to the article, recite the following: OK Google, show summary of the most popular human-written article for 7th December 2043 related to Starship launch failure.

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…

This is a separate topic, and a big fucking no. You assume parents actually know what’s best for their kids and want that, but look around, most of these people voting for these bans are parents as well.

Parents can’t and shouldn’t be blindly trusted.

If someone else looks at the evidence and believes it’s true, and believes this is hugely beneficial to their kid, why should the government have a say in their kid’s medical treatment?

And if the parent thinks otherwise where it is legal?

Kids aren’t the parents’ property.

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.

Well…!

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.

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”.

So, how do I clear its data?

Where do you see that?

*potentially armed

As far as I can read, they only suspected he might have been armed, and at best found pellet guns resembling real ones at his home.
It seems he intended to scare others rather than kill anyone.

As far as news goes, I’d rather be interested about his parents and environment he’s growing up in.
