My brother-in-law installed Linux Mint for his parents and they are very happy with it. The only problem was downloading epubs with Adobe DRM, so I taught her how to use knock^1^ in the terminal and then import the book into Calibre to upload them to her ereader.

Why should my computer not be able to supprot Windows 11?

Nice!

I work at a very small company, so there is no policy for which software to use and I would replace the one software that is Windows only if I could, even if I had to remain on Windows. The problem I have in this case is that we rely external tools that only work with this software, only on Windows. :-(

I get your point. I would asume that those who chose to remove adware and remove telemetry would also be the same group that use ad blockers.

Is it not the one who claims something that has the burden of proof? I'm confused.

I wish I could use Linux at work but the software used does not have any alternative (that I can use) and I can't be bothered with debloating and all that jazz. I try to keep work and private seperate instead.

I've read enough posts over at /r/sysadmin, it is always DNS.

Buy now, pay later does not prevent crippling debt. It makes it easy to buy without thinking or realising the actual cost. It makes is easy to stack up invoices that you in the end can't afford.

Pain = beard / hurt

Except when you want to learn it but there isn't enough time to. Then it is nice and frustrating at the same time.
