Personally I'm a fan of Nebula

Obligatory super nice guide by apalrd

"Come back with a warrant!"

Debian as a base, flatpaks/nix for anything new or shiny.

For the most part this confines anything that might break to your regular user account (so you're even less likely to break the system).

If this thing ran grapheneos I'd get rid of my pixel tomorrow

Imagine this: instead of removing a full lane and just making the rest 33% wider, you remove that lane, make the car lanes 10% wider, and use the rest of the free space for a 2-way bike lane. There's no way that 5 minute driving commute would be more than 20-30 minutes by bike. Less by ebike.

That's technically true but pretty misleading. Sure, OpenStreetMap just serves the map. Every OSM app though (OsmAnd, organic maps (comaps), etc) runs live navigation local to the device.

Must be on their roadmap right after the printer

There should be consequences, sure, but life long financial ruin isn't exactly a punishment that fits the crime here.

Big fan of searx and use it on all of my devices. This will be a welcome addition.

Obligatory actual direct link (it's just a common sense subdomain): noai.duckduckgo.com

The problem with a beginner using NixOS is that it teaches them, well, NixOS. Using just about any other distro will teach them transferrable skills; i.e. suffering , until they embrace ansible;)

Unless that other distro is Guix, in which case Stall man smiles upon you and I wish you the best with your ultra libre Pentium machine.

Logseq still supports plain .md files ("Logseq OG") in addition to the new DB backend., so a convoluted import isn't necessary.

The article linked above seems to roughly agree:

• $6.5B state aid + school funding / life insurance payout shifts to state responsibility
• $2.8B from the city via delayed pensions + taxes on second homes valued >$5M

Earlier this year, Ms. Hochul committed $1.5 billion in state aid for a host of municipal services. The state budget, which has not yet been finalized, is also expected to include a host of policy changes and revenue increases that will funnel another $4 billion to the city over the next two years.

The largest share — about $2.3 billion over two years — is expected to come from the city’s delaying certain pension payments, a change that requires state approval and buy-in from municipal unions.

The mayor and governor also expect another half-billion dollars to flow from the new tax surcharge on second homes worth more than $5 million that Ms. Hochul recently announced. But the city comptroller recently argued that number might be overly optimistic, and New York City’s byzantine property valuation system means that the new tax would come with substantial implementation challenges.

The city is expected to save another $1 billion over two years from several changes, including the state’s expected agreement to delay a class-size mandate in public schools (despite Mr. Mamdani’s support for the mandate as a candidate); more school aid from the state; and the assumption by the state of a larger share of death benefits for families of police officers, firefighters and emergency medical workers.

I feel obligated to mention Logseq here. It's similar to obsidian, but FLOSS (AGPL-v3).

That's not how hardware works, like at all. I agree with the spirit of what you're asking for but you can't just wave a magic wand and put any software on any hardware.

Obviously spin is how the electron feels about being observed

Pedantry warning

Mamdani is mayor (city level), not governor (state level).

Be careful what you wish for... My i7-1260p failed a few months ago.

I will say though, upgrading to an ai 340 is a serious quality of life upgrade in terms of gpu and battery life. Even the NPU is useful now with the latest drivers and kernel modules.
