We did, and there was some cool stuff coming out of MS now and then. I remember when the first Power Toys came out - there's nothing really magic in current ones though.

This sounds like the perfect use case for a simple, straightforward VM. Dual booting is dangerous, time consuming, and makes it inconvenient to share clipboard, stuff... why don't you use a Windows VM instead? You can freeze a VM (savi

RustDesk already encrypts connections going via Relay. Encryption is missing in direct IP to IP connections only - but you could set up an SSH tunnel, or a SOCKS or HTTPS proxy though. Another valid alternative is Xpra, and it does support

Sounds interesting, and promising! I'm no expert in streaming videos, but your shell reminded me of mosh [1]. Mosh's auth approach is also interesting - it leverages ssh for authentication, something that you might consider too. M

Sorry, you're right. My assumption was that, given meteorites are metal rich, and two orders of magnitude more mass, the human contribution was negligible. It turns out I was wrong.

LEO satellites come down on their own in a few months/years. 100 tons of metal burning in the atmosphere seems a lot, but it's barely the total mass of meteorites falling in 24-48 hours, actually.

Minisforum, Gmktec also have Ryzen AI HX 370 mini PCs with 128Gb (2x64Gb) max LPDDR5. It's dirt cheap, you can get one barebone with ~€750 on Amazon (the 395 similarly retails for ~€1k)... It should be fully supported in Ubuntu 25.04 o

Debian Testing isn't really unstable - the dev wasn't exaggerating. But I'd also suggest Kubuntu (you can remove snap and all of its packages, and install Firefox and Thunderbird .deb's from the Mozilla repo)

Yeah the real mistake was starting with Endeavour. I wonder just how many people are turned off by their initial Linux experience because they choose stuff like Arch, Gentoo, or some obscure variant rather than Fedora, Kubuntu or Mint. Even
