Zines has been a thing forever. A zine is a magazine that is a non-commercial, often homemade, online and usually about specialized and nisch subjects.

I used to browse BMEzine a lot about 25 years ago. They’ve been a thing since 1994. It’s short for “Body Modification Ezine”, where Ezine means electronic magazine.

I’m not some old Unix hacker, but after 20 years with ‘Linux’, I can without any doubt say that Linux-based operating systems—that’s meant to be stable and reliable—is stable and reliable.

They’re light years ahead of Microsoft and their operating system. Even Microsoft knows that. That’s why they keep replacing Windows with Linux for their backend.

With that said. Linux is not perfect. And while I like Linux and believe it’s overall a really good option for a lot of people, especially beginners, I’m not in any way some sort of fanboy. I’m quite the opposite. I’m the first person to be vocal about everything that’s wrong with it. :D

In regards to intuitiveness, I believe the issue is you here. ;) It sounds like you’re an experienced Windows users, and therefore also set in your ways in regards how Windows work. However. Linux is not Windows. Different systems may work differently.

I had the same issue when I started using Linux. I previously only had experience with Windows, and I tried to use Linux like it was Windows. This didn’t work at all, and it made it into a quite frustrating and poor experience. :)

It’s hard to give any sort of help with no information. You should have tried to debut it at least. :)

What case do you have? CPU fan? Case fans? How have you set it all up?

What output to stdout do you get from the AppImages?

I don’t know of the issue is ZorinOS or you, but have you tried other options? I have no experience with Zorin, but I know that Linux Mint is a great option for a beginner (as well as experienced users).

Heat or no heat, if you leave your kids at age 2 and 4 alone in your car, you’re clearly a stupid idiot who lacks all form of intelligence.

It really angers me when their stupid actions affect innocent and helpless people like these two poor kids.

Paying for software is an exception, not a rule.

And we only have proprietary software because there’s greedy people out there that take advantage of people who don’t know better.

With that said. I’m not saying that developers shouldn’t get paid for what they do. They absolutely should! And a lot of them do, even when the code is free as in free beer and free speech.

Talk to the person in charge of the meeting room. Every meeting room should have good ventilation, electricity and water. It’s like human rights kind of stuff. :D

Didn’t you talk about getting a new laptop computer?

It always stays in your backpack at home, and your meeting rooms at work don’t have electricity?

I don’t understand. A laptop computer on standby lasts days on battery?

If I had to regularly use a laptop computer I would charge it every day when I got home. It would just have been part of the daily routine I have when I get back home from work.

How often do you work for 12-14 hours straight without any access to electricity?

If Linux is actually of any interest for you, giving up on it because of a few hours of battery life, feels weird for me. Why not invest in a power bank or make it work some other way.

With that said. You’re obviously free to use whatever you want to. I personally can’t stand Apple and their incredibly barebones, limited and locked down operating system.

I don’t know who this is, but he clearly made some people here upset. :D

The whole post is about him not finding any sensible use for a 1 Gbit Internet connection for himself. He never ever mention any one else.

I really don’t understand how this can be offensive for anyone else. Why is he not allowed to have an option about himself?

PS. I do believe that the title is somewhat click-bait though.

There’s always Devuan if you want Debian before Debian moved to systemd.

I can also recommend Linux Mint. It’s a great general purpose option for both beginners and experienced users.

Helium should be fine. They’re, to my understanding, a fork of ungoogled-chromium, and they seem to proxy all calls to Google for you. It shold be a safe enough web browser for ‘regular’ people who care about their privacy.

It does, and there’s nothing you can do about it either, other than, obviously, switching to an alternative web browser.

It won’t. Well. Perhaps some distros might see new users/customers when everyone’s abandoning Ubuntu.
