Yeah, I think that for new hardware there's more chance of compatibility issues. But when it comes to old hardware that's too slow for Windows, I think installing used SSD and something like Mint is always a good idea over buying

Linux Mint with Cinnamon really reminds me of Windows 7 in terms of UX, and runs well on old machines, usually without any extra configuration required. I would recommend that.

>Yet you've decided that the best solution for her is an OS that requires debugging miscellaneous hardware and driver issues and runs a mishmash of software with no consistent UI language. I guess you've never tried Linux Mint

Smartphone is easily the worst, too distracting and addicting. Internet I could still handle when I only had access to it in certain places.

Mainly those that are already having trouble feeding their populations. For example in Africa and Middle-East many countries are in trouble with the effects of the Russian invasion. I can only imagine what will happen in these parts of the

Indeed Sweden as a whole is safe, but organized crime related gun violence has become a problem of different size than here in Finland for example. It's quite worrying as gunfights between gangs do carry a high risk to other people who

I think it's just good to have open discussion on what these demographics changes might mean in the context of different societies. Both Europe and North America will see increasing migration from more overpopulated and poorer parts of

These could become quite popular for tourist charter flights as they should have a decent range even when packed to max capacity. Plenty of long-haul tourist flights from Europe to Africa, South-East Asia and Caribbean could use something l

I don't see what impact the aircraft being narrow-body has on travel comfort. It's all about seat pitch IMO, and that can be bad also in a wide-body.

Everyone else should not have a choice to buy new equipment as cheap as they can do today, whenever they wish. That's simply not sustainable.

I would recommend trying to find a hobby that involves traditional physical activity outdoors, away from screens. It's easy to sway away from doom scrolling, porn, food deliveries when you're trekking outdoors, working in your for

Calling it a "woman's salary" is a bit of an exaggeration, when mainly-women fields such as nursing requiring higher education pay about 2900-3500 EUR including extras from night shifts and sundays (or about 2500 without any

Still, historically people have died from diseases at a much higher rate than even during the worst of COVID pandemics. I think if anything people should be more accepting towards death, recognizing it as a part of life that is eventually u

Defeating aging sounds like a horrible idea as long as we aren't able to conquer space. The planet is badly overpopulated already as it is.

Wiping out malaria from Africa probably wouldn't save lives long-term, considering the totally unsustainable levels of population growth at the same time when climate change renders many areas less habitable. Massive starvation seems i

I would argue that it's easier to switch energy completely to renewables than to significantly cut global energy usage. It's also more ethical solution than forcing people to live in tiny apartments and preventing them from travel

Those are good things to do, but voting for people who support stricter climate action is at least equally important. Most important decisions (taxation, building clean energy...) are ultimately done on society/government level, not by

I definitely agree that getting a property is a good idea. I feel much better and it's easier to stay away from news & social media whenever I go to countryside, where I have lots of free space and things to do outside. In an apart

I don't think the problem is necessarily knowing what kind of place the world is, but being constantly reminded by it. I believe social media would be harmful even if it was full of happy news, simply because it provides constant distr

Social media is bad. What is even worse is that smartphones allow people to use it anywhere, whenever they feel bored. The impact isn't massive just on mental health, but also on general productivity and people's social lives. It&

A blasphemy law will do nothing to stop the actual issue in Sweden, which is the failure of its migration policy and integration. Riots like this are just one symptom, massive gang-related gun violence is another. But nobody cares since it&

Not just America but pretty much everywhere. I'm Finnish, and when I read about problems of American nurses it all seems pretty much identical to what is going on in my country, except maybe for some legal problems. Low pay, angry pati
