If you're concerned about privacy I don't know why you'd use Tailscale over Wireguard directly. The latter is slightly more fiddly to configure, but you only do it once and there's no cloud middleman involved, just your devices talking directly to each other.
It's just so insane to me that the community is having to make singleplayer Fallout games now because Bethesda aren't interested.
... or worked in a large team with juniors and members coming and going over a long period of time.
I'm not against these changes, but aren't physical footy cards and other types of trading cards the original loot box aimed at kids? Or have companies successfully argued that they're selling chewing gum and the cards are just freebies in the pack?

A programmer sitting in front of a text-based IDE with millions of keyboard shortcuts at their disposal has to be the least necessary use case for a voice assistant I've ever heard of.
Yep. Can't put my finger on what's happening there exactly, but there's some kind of mental health crisis going on and it's very public.
Remember Uber Air? Still waiting...
Cleaning gutters or windows up high or cutting back large trees both seem dangerous enough, but I'm sure people will volunteer for it if they need the money.
It's the year of the voice for Home Assistant. Given their current trajectory, I'm hopeful they'll have a pretty darn good replacement for the most common use cases of Google Home/Alexa/Siri in another year. Setting timers, shopping list management, music streaming, doorbell/intercom management. If you're on the fence about a Nabu Casa subscription, pull the trigger as it helps them stay independent and not get bought out or destroyed by commercial interests.
I don't want one. It's a cool technological feat, but like a transparent monitor or flexible keyboard, it just doesn't make sense for my needs.

I've already installed Arch on a spare laptop to assess the difficulty of switching over. So far I'm very impressed!
arch-install made the setup pretty easy, and KDE Plasma feels very natural for someone migrating from Windows. Flatpaks make installing/updating apps a breeze, and there's way more apps available than I expected, including commercial ones like Spotify.
Most of the "muscle memory" habits translate across too, for example pressing Meta and typing "notepad" shows KWrite in the start menu. That was a nice surprise.
I can already tell it's going to be viable for 90% of my needs, and the fact that there's good free software to do everything from video editing to office tasks is really amazing. Linux desktop has come a LONG way.
