That is a cool story, thanks for sharing.

I live in the US now but miss having an avenue to pursue if unjustly treated as a consumer. A watchdog with a modicum of actual power is a good thing. A small example: at one point…

I like System 76 and I use Pop OS on a desktop PC. I don't know how else to say this but crikey, these machines are ugly. Edit: I expect to be downvoted, and this is just my unhelp…

This quote does not support your argument.

What a depressing, callous analogy. You are comparing the IP of an entertainment product to a drug of significant consequence to the health of citizens throughout the world. Well d…

The tank was empty introducing it. I don’t think removing it reflects poorly.

Only one half of you needs to be.

Is voice chat always on?

I've found the "CPU Power Manager" add-on pretty good for battery life. I flick between the profiles depending on what I'm doing. Could be better, but I still get at least 4 hours …

I was using an add-on to enable experimental scaling but it's noticeably slower and my remote desktop client doesn't adjust its scaling accordingly. But you're right – browser scal…
