I would have thought that those people would require the most structure to get value from an informational video?

I really want to like his videos but they're so disorganized. I genuinely don't understand how he has such a large following.

I switched to Niagara a few years back because Nova didn't have good support for foldables and tbh I haven't looked back. It's very different but once you get used to it it's much faster than a traditional launcher.

I like the long-term overlapping security release that server-first focus gives me. I rely on it even. My daily driver is built from Ubuntu server headless LTS, X11, Awesomewm. My automation really only needs updates every 5 years, and I get the option to update it every 2. The same script I wrote to remove the esm motd message 10 years ago still works. I don't know what else people want from canonical.

Long-time (and current) Ubuntu daily-driver here. When I first started dabbling 20 years ago, Ubuntu had unparalleled out-of-the-box driver support for things that required third-party drivers. It gave them an era of dominance that had a secondary effect of "if I have a Linux problem and Google it, Ubuntu guides are the most likely to exist" which kept me using it to this day. Is it the best? Probably not, but I have twenty years of automation built around it and it's comfortable.

The people that still use it today are the functional tinkerers. I don't generally engage with these threads because I assume that every user making these posts isn't searching for the answers that are already out there in previous threads. The paths that lead to Ubuntu aren't the same paths that the "I use arch btw" people take. It's a case of the kinds of users that choose Ubuntu, don't go out of their way to interject that they're Linux people. We're just regular people that don't want an adversarial relationship with our operating system.

Snap, esm, Ubuntu pro, they all get out of your way with a simple command or single line in a config file, and they respect the same signaling they've used since each product's inception. I want a product that is both open-source and financially sustainable, because it leads to stability in my life. If windows had easily togglable telemetry and functional automation I would never have switched in the first place.

If you ran a raw Ubuntu/fedora/whatever, you can use qemu/libvrt to run small virtual machines as required. You start and stop them with virsh, define them with simple xml files, and can easily automate the creation/destruction of them if desired.

Am I allowed to find it funny at an NFL game but in poor taste at a WNBA game?

if you're automating the creation and deployment of vms, and the downstream operating systems, and not doing some sort of HA/failover meme setup... proxmox makes things way more complicated than raw libvirt/qemu/kvm.

Maybe for the initial setup, but nothing is more repeatable than automation. The more manual steps you have to build your infra, the harder it is to recover/rebuild/update later

Don't get me wrong, I use libvrt where it makes sense but why would anyone go to proxmox from a full iac setup?

I do 2 at home, and 3 at work, coming from 4 at both and haven't looked back.

OpenAI's browser is built atop Chromium, Google's own open-source browser code, two of the sources said.

Any legal precedent for this has to be a win right?
