You could try out this crazy new thing called reading the article

“available”

Cool, where’s the code?

Exactly this. The goal of requiring explicit cookie consent/refusal is admirable, but the implementation of cookie banners is both useless and terrible. We already have a way to communicate to websites whether we’re alright with cookies or not, they’re called HTTP headers.

We were hoping for a new Tesla and instead got yet another Edison.

Check journal, you should see either an error or a wakeup reason

Idk, mine can. https://docs.qmk.fm/#/feature_unicode

Most modern OSes feature emoji pickers though

Correct, users that are not explicitly configured as sudoers are limited both in files they can access and commands they can run.

Yeah, Linux was built as a multi-user system, so user and group permissions have always been a core aspect of it. The “password locked admin account” is just the root user, although you should maybe leave that as a “failsafe” account and create a separate user with sudoer permissions. Every file and folder in Linux has an owner and read/write/execute permissions for the owner, members of its group, and others. By default, users are limited to their own home folder (/home/username, where folders like Documents are stored) and a handful of world-writable locations (like /tmp) If you need more specific permissions, ACLs are also available. Or SELinux.

The biggest difference regarding distribution choice is that some distros ship with SELinux enabled, while most don’t. For everything else there’s not much difference, so maybe start with Debian for its community support/resources?

Yeah, that’s the error you get when trying to run an x86 program on ARM or vice versa

“Yeah this update is going to make your phones slower” is not something any smartphone producer would ever say. The difference might be negligible, but less power = less performance.

No one with half a brain would assume the FTC actually said that. OP’s title is verbatim from the article, as it should be.

until recently, it punished anyone on Nvidia

My brother in Christ, it’s Nvidia punishing you for using Wayland.
