Eh, just you wait until Bill implements AI into it and/or a xz-like backdoor and then says its “for your own good”.

Quite a controversial take, but I think dietpi is a very solid choice, even for x86 PCs.

Nah, the average “just werks” user won’t leave Windows even if it took money out of its credit card.

I too can’t wait when biologically-modified dogs, cats and alike beat videogames using their own undeveloped-yet-modified brain for the first time.
