No it’s a great recommendation.

I didn’t say “average person” and end the sentence. I said the average person installing linux. The type of person who installs Linux in the first place is already extremely far from average.
I would consider act of installing Linux itself to be “tinkering”.
I didn’t say average person I said average Linux installer which is FAR from the average person.
Zorin is a solid distro and is designed to appeal to Windows users.
Buuuut knowing what I know now I worry Zorin’s simplicity could turn people off of Linux. Zorin is a good OS for your grandmother but the average person who would consider installing Linux wants to be able to tinker. Heck, I would consider the very act of changing your operating to be tinkering. Nobody accidentally stumbles installing Linux.
The options with Zorin are either use it as-is or risk breaking it. That’s why I would personally recommend a KDE distro, probably something immutable like Fedora Kinoite. That way you can tinker to your heart’s content with no fear of breaking it.
You’re not thinking critically when you start from a conclusion.
Agreed
That’s the opposite of critical thinking.
Agreed
That’s literally just continuing to believe and not question something.
Agreed
Did you write this with GPT? Skepticism and critical thinking are not biases.
I do not consider critical thinking skills to be a “viewpoint”. I consider them a requirement for intelligent conversation.
Nice thanks!
This quote from Ford’s CEO:
“It’s going to be a vibrant industry, but it’s going to be smaller, way smaller than we thought,” Ford chief executive Jim Farley said at an event on Tuesday.
Combined with the following quote he recently said:
Speaking on the Everything Electric Show podcast, Farley praised the [Xiaomi] electric sedan. “I don’t like talking about the competition so much, but I drive a Xiaomi,” he said. “We flew one from Shanghai to Chicago, and I’ve been driving it for six months now, and I don’t want to give it up.”
Really feels like Kodak in the 90’s kinda-sorta investing in digital but not willing to fully transform a majority of business.
If these catch on (unlikely imo) it’s only a matter of time before I have an awkward interaction with someone when they come into my house wearing them…
Wow, 7tb for $21/month. That’s much better than I’ve been seeing.
Problem with that is there is no backup in case of flood/fire/tornado etc.
Yeah it sucks because Microsoft charges $10/mo for 6tb.
Anyone know of a good managed hosting (or vps) for Immich that doesn’t break the bank? I have about 5TB of photos/videos and I don’t feel safe without a remote backup. I played with self hosting and I really (really) like Immich but I keep Google photos/Drive just to ensure I won’t lose anything.
Hm I like that idea. That’s a bit out of my wheelhouse but worth looking into. Maybe also have two zones? A larger one to trigger the location update?
Hmm my phone always takes a few minutes to update that I’m home.
Ah ok thanks, so just to be clear, when you come home it will still “alert” you to an “intruder” (until your GPS updates presumably).
That’s cool, so with the AI chip it can recognize individuals people and pets? Just wondering how you prevent it from alerting you for well, you.
Last I looked into this Frigate was the most robust path to take, they recommend cameras that are about $50-$100 each but in my playing around I connected a Yi camera ($10) with custom firmware.
That said it was all a bit over my head and I had trouble connecting it to home assistant and gave up
I would love a follow up post with whatever setup you go with!
Oh my goodness automatic theme transitions finally!
