Comment It's hard to take them seriously when they're lyin (Score 1, Troll) 84

Wind and solar are. 10x cheaper?
In what universe.

I understand that they think its a crisis, and there should be no hesitation, and we should do whatever it takes no matter the cost.

But they simply not being honest.
They are also not listening to legitimate concerns or criticism.

I don't trust the. Climate extremists. It's a cult.

Comment What are they trying to do? (Score 1) 147

The real question is what are they trying to do.

Man pages are for someone who wants to type commands, most people don't want to type commands and be "computer geeks".

I'd consider
1. Try to install windows

If you install Linux, you're their personal tech support forever.
I'd go with any debian based distribution with the default desktop environment.

I've been using Linux a long time, and I still don't think it's an end user OS for people who don't care what the OS is.
I've even switched, my servers and development is on Linux, my actual daily OS is Windows.

WSL2 has made this very convenient, hopefully they fix ipv6 soon.

Comment File management (Score 1) 165

Uhh, I'm on the older side and my kids are very computer literate.

They understand file management, but they don't understand why you should bother.
The idea of carefully curated records is a silly hangover from the paper days.

Files are either active, stored in a proper document database, or just dumped into an archive and go search if you need them.
I am almost upset with the massive amount of time I've wasted carefully managing files.
