Why would they? The current stable kernel release is still v6.19

Fixing tech debt is more a people/commercial problem than a technical one. You just had to send a report to one guy, but that guy has to spend ridiculous amounts of energy convincing execs and stakeholders that it is worth breaking their current real workflows for a future imaginary payoff. Piling AI on the broken establishment model is relatively more appealing. That Principal might have just done you a favor you didn't realize.

The only way communism works is if it is grassroots instead of a top-down imposition. Vietnam seems to have done (and is doing) well for itself, will be interesting to see how it goes.

Age of Empires 2 DE is an addictive brainworm that eats up hours like nothing and turns your mind to mush

Yes, unfortunately you have to clean install (they have a guide for it). It's fine for me since it's based on Debian, which has a very long support cycle spanning two or more years generally.

No, I chose systemd for the familiarity.

I tried COSMIC on PopOS and had the same sour experience that LTT famously did in his recent video. And honestly, considering that it is visually and functionally no different than GNOME (which is already on wayland and much more stable), I don't know why they're even bothering with it.

addy.io is the one I'm using

Did they pay in Rupees? I recall a headline from a few years ago that Iran had agreed to sell oil for Rupees.

 

Longtime Mint stickler here, never developed a taste for any other distro schools (Arch, Fedora, other *buntus and Debians). But tried out MX after a long period of deferring and I am genuinely blown away. This distro has everything I could have ever ask for - Debian stability coupled with advanced hardware support (with more recent zen kernels and drivers), a solid opinionated Plasma DE setup that is both minimalist and all-encompassing at the same time, and a full stock of sensible and pragmatic utilities to cover the boring stuff.

Mint's relative lethargy at migrating to wayland has been increasingly becoming a sore point due to the sheer practical difference it makes (especially in terms of multi-monitor HiDPI and fractional scaling, in addition to security and performance). MX KDE has all that covered and then some. It's the first time I had to genuinely stretch to find any fault. The only complaint I have is that they aren't letting me post this testimonial in the MX forum because it doesn't accept anon-aliased emails for logins.

Why not just switch to systemd-boot?

Strange, I have weed stashed with me and two joints I rolled two months ago but haven't been touched yet. Just never get in the mood.
