Linux Mint is my favorite operating system, if y'all have nothing tethering you to windows you should give it a try
If you want software that will last as long as your hardware (10, 20 years and beyond)— put Linux on your Mac or Macbook

The Alexa feature "Do Not Send Voice Recordings" you enabled no longer available. Now everything will be sent to Amazon cloud server and it may become part of LLM training. Only Amazon knows what they are going to do with all that data.

I see a lot of people saying that the end of windows 10 is going to be a massive e waste event, and while this is true I see the more pressing issue is that the majority of casual users won’t upgrade their PCs or switch to a Linux based OS. The bigger issue imo is the cyber security implications.

Relevant information for protests: Cell Site Simulators will in effect log who is at a protest, and their communication. They can also be a platform for launching hacking attempts on phones or for DDOS.

My first gameboy color mod I did a few years back, swapped out the screen for an IPS display and gave it a glow in the dark shell. Pretty easy mod if you’re looking to get into retro console modding.
