My sisters dog really does not like rain. She bought a raincoat for him, but if he wears it, he simply does not move. He just just standing still and does not move one step. He prefers getting wet over wearing a coat.
I would really like to have one. But I own a XBOX Series X and realistically that's fine for me to use. hardware wise, the Steam Machine is not even a big update.
Also, do you need that long battery life? If yes, ARM or really new intel processors with energy saving cores seem to be the way to go.
I don't have experience with it myself. But what I've read so far is, that the Snapdragon support by Linux is quite bad. Not sure if I would recommend that...
But the new Intel CPU's are great. They are quite efficient and performant.
The problem is not really the end of Windows 10 itself. It was released in 2015 which is more than 10 years ago. Even Apple and Linux do not support versions of their OS fur such a long time.
The real problem are the hardware requirements of Windows 11 which do not allow users to install it on older PCs, but the article mentions that only in one short sentence.
In my opinion, end consumers should have the right to buy each PC/notebook with at least two Operation System options and the vendor must provide open source drivers for the hardware. The reason why so few people use Linux is, that Windows is preinstalled on most computers.
Governments and companies should switch to Linux to be independent from Microsoft. It's simple risk reduction.

As a Linux user for more than 10 years now, I can not really understand why so many people switch from Windows to CachyOS.
Yes, CachyOS is great. In general I see the advantage of Arch based distros, but only if one knows what they are doing. It's great on fresh installs, but over time users need to fix issues and make decisions and this only works if they know what they are doing.
Similar wis NixOS. Great distro, but not for low maintanance and beginners. If you just want something that runs super stable and you don't need to fix anything, go for Debian. And there are a lot of options between Debian and CachyOS.
Wie genau die Anlageprodukte gestaltet sind steht noch nicht fest. Theoretisch dürfen die Anbieter der Altersvorsorge 1% Gebühren verlangen. Das klingt wenig, macht im Vergleich zu einem ETF Sparplan mit ~0,2% Gebühren über einen Zeitraum von 40 Jahren mehrere zehntausend Euro aus, die an den den Anbieter und nicht an den Anleger gehen. Der einzige Grund, warum sich ein Anlageprodukt mit so hohen Gebühren überhaupt lohnen könnte, ist die staatliche Förderung. Aber hier geht dann eben auch ein großer Teil der Fördersumme an die Finanzdienstleister und nicht an den Anleger.
Wenn der Staat aber nun selbst ein halbwegs gutes Produkt mit 0,5% Gebühren und auch sonst ganz guten Konditionen anbieten, dann setzt das Mindeststandards. Die privaten Finanzdienstleister müssen ein Konkurrenzfähiges Produkt anbieten, damit die Leute die Altersversorgung bei ihnen und nich beim Staat abschließen. Das macht das abzocken von uns zukünftigen Rentner schwieriger und der Finanzbranche gefällt das wohl nicht so sehr.
Do you kbow where Europe get it's uranium to power these nuclear power plants from? No? Let me tell you: We import it from countries like Kazakhstan, Niger a bit from Canada. France, one of the biggest nuclear powered countries imports it's uranium from Russia.
This is exactly the same as with oil and gas. So tell me: How do nuclear power plants help us, if we have to import the fuel?
Do you know what are the resources we have in Europe: Wind, water and sun. To be fair, we have cole too, but this is one of the dirtiest ways to produce energie.
It's not that easy. E.g. Europe was on good terms with Russia. It is not like Europe decided to become an enemy of Russia, Russia attacked an European country. Of course we should question ourselves if we should have trusted Russia in the first place.
The only way out is to become more enery independent by using more renewable energies.
My mum, who is in her 60's, and never used anything other than Windows is on Linux Mint for nearly two years now and has no problem using it. I was surprised she has even explored features like virtual desktops and is using them now. She is far far away from being a tech person. And she never needed to touched a terminal while using it.
But I needed to install Mint for her. I think she would have given up at the point where the boot order had to be changed to start from the USB with the live/install media. And this is the biggest downside of Linux: You can't just buy the average consumer pc/notebook with a pre-installed Linux. It is always windows installed. That's why people keep using Windows. Not because Windows is better.
The most famous one is probably PayPal. But I assume for people who are privacy focused, that would be not the first choice.
There is Curve Pay, but I know nothing about it besides the fact that it exists.
Samsung Pay exists, but it only works on Samsung devices and therefore is not really an alternative in this case.
And then there are some regional options. Here in Germany are same banks that offer their own payment apps, most famously the Sparkassen. I heard there are also some Indian and east Asian payment apps, but I don't know much about them.
Es ist wirklich eine Schande, dass die SPD seit Jahren aktiv am Demikratieabbau arbeitet.
Die CDU natürlich auch, aber da hat ja niemand etwas anderes erwartet.

There is an official Fedora KDE edition for more than one year now.
I would really like to have one. But I own a XBOX Series X and realistically that's fine for me to use. hardware wise, the Steam Machine is not even a big update.
I'll wait 8 years for the next gen Steam Machine.

Who uses left or right to determine directions in the field of Geography can't burn anyone. He should have called it west side park.
Fully agree!

Gefährliches Halbwissen:

Edit: Ich finde Finanztip erklärt immer ganz gut zu solchen Themen. Hier ist deren Artikel zum AV Depot: https://www.finanztip.de/newsletter/aktuell#teaser1

Same here. Guacamole is totally fine. But besides that, I can not understand how anyone likes to eat Avocados.

Not a knitter, but I just scrolled by this post while my wife is taking photos of a sweater she just finished on the floor.

Contactless payments does not need to be Google Pay. There are alternatives.
My guess is, that they will offer a new Thinkphone model with GraphenOS to target business customers.
But of course I don't know it, just guessing.
