If you have never used a password on windows or some other authentication mechanism then your Windows is not very secure.

Most of the differences you quote are pretty much the same both systems.

I guess the one exception is the UAC prompt which on Linux is a bit more secure in that it requires a password. Some random person or app cannot just click through it.

There was a time when I looked at LCD screens I saw all the defects.

One of:

• Thank you and if good learn somthing. Asquestions.

• I know, if I know this.

• I do not want to hear it, if it is repetative garbage.

What is all this for criminals BS. Graphene is one of the best ROMs out there if your willing to use Google hardware. Pretty much just works and without the normal bloat.

VLC maybe.

Ubuntu though I am less liking the snap dependence. I would avoid atomic distros for now. They are just the latest fad. Not saying bad though.

Anyone who is not cautious in choosing a partner for the next 60 or 70 years is nuts. This is probably the most important decision you will ever make. We are almost 30 years in and it is great but it was not easy to find someone. Not sure it is comittment exactly. More finding someone that wants a long term partner and that you both like each other and can stand each other over the long run and are heading in a similar direction in this complex world. Lot of people do not seem to know the difference between lust and love too.

By the way, the president does not decide policy. That is congress in the US. The president administers policy. So the number one thing is follow rhe constitution and the law and the spirit of the law. Sadly thw current administration cannot even meet this low bar.

Fix the deficit. Pay down the debt. Stabalize and reverse the erosion of the middle class.

I prefer following science rather then quackery. People forget what the world was like before vaccinations, floride, and public health. Sadly in the US the quacks are in charge now.

So yes vax for me,

There are a lot of things going on. Internationally, China and Russia and others at war or preparing for war with the west. So big geopolitical stuff. At home an aligment of those forces to create political instbility with existing forces internal to the US. A media and social media enviornment that thrives on outrage not truth. Disastisfaction that has resulted in a major political party being taken over by fascist, authoritarian. and corrupt influences. A populus that thinks this is just fine for one reason or another. A wealthy corporate power elite behind the scenes that likes this.

Sure maybe 8 counties. Yes I have had a passport for decades.

Transitioned my moms computer to Windows 11, 11 months go. Pretty easy. Her computer was originally for Windows 7 and is still fully supported. Her computer will always be Windows as I’m not local and other people have to be able to support her too. It is also what she knows. I love Linux but it is not for everyone.

None, we only use linux.

The leadership is not the government. Leadership varies widely. The actual government workers and departments are different. Lot of very compitent people. There are questions of course. Big organizations tend to grow, how to address. What should be the priorites. Government cannot do everything. Mandates tend to grow. Polotics and money tend to corrupt. Like IRS, rich people do not want to pay their taxes so republicans always under fund.

If your talking presidents. Trump is the least comperent in my lifetime. Bush 2, first term not really there, second a lot better. Of course Raegon, Biden, and Trump got too old in office. The others back to the 70s which I lived through and was old enough to follow, mostly competent but all had issues of course. I am not rating these on whether I approve of their policies.

At some point you need a different job or just make sure your paid enough to justify the BS.

I frankly would just say that is the priority you gave them. Change the priority or assign more resouces. You pick. One always has to hold management accountable but it has to be done in a nonconfrontational problem solving way.

It is not the government that is incompetent, that is an idea promoted by the right and the billionaires that fund both parties.

Why do so many Americans think the US has a huge crime problem? It is promoted by the same people. Statistics do not support it.

Hence holding them accountable and either forcing prioitization or assignment of more resouces.
