    1. Grab Ubuntu - super easy for new Linux users.
    2. install next to windows. Don’t replace it.

    Just get a feel and poke around.

    The moment one of those Linux users see that I said Ubuntu they’re going to froth at the mouth and lose their entire minds. It’s like their identity is tied to only using the most obscure, unpopular nonsense.

    It’s easy enough - and the Snap store (app) is good enough for what you’d need. Its not the best in some situations, but if you’re not doing anything crazy and you just want to search web or whatever without all the surveillance and copilot slop being forced onto you - it’s a good start.

    It’s a learning curve, but it’s not bad. I use Libre Office instead of MS Office now. Shortcuts and interface still fucks with me after growing up with MS Office products.

    I dual boot Linux and windows on both my machines. When I game - I boot up windows. When I do anything else, I boot up Linux.




















  • Are they fireproof?

    Honestly the cooling system used is the only thing that anyone needs to hit to take an entire data center down.

    Without cooling, everything would melt.

    Could be that they all use the same default password - easily searchable if true because it’s probably pinging out asking for connections.

    Also massive supply chain attack surface due to the 3rd party dependencies.

    If someone were to get within WiFi range they could cause a lot of damage to their infrastructure by attacking the supply chain.

    It’s really too bad Claude code identified all those 3rd party security holes opening up these data centers to all these cyber threats.
