It doesn't seem to be the case with distros like Mint. I even know folks who have Mint but they have no clue about tech or computers at all. As users they can hardly tell difference. And It's actually easier on them because it doesn't get all messy as Windows does for non tech folks, so there is almost no maintenance needed. I very much recommended it for granparents and such, so you don't have to go fixing their Windows PC each visit because they downloaded tons of random danger ware by not understanding what they do.

Or get Proton and Let Valve do the rest.

Imagine future civilization digging out some of today's memes...

There are people laughing at them for not hiring someone born at 20th of April , very same folks riding elevators and not finding weird that the 13th floor is missing.

This picture is wrong. Whole world is shaped like Murica . nothing else is known to man or so they say.

Right, not to mention they also giving back to community by proposing game friendly changes on kernel AFAIK.

If just most games wold run on Linux out of box at least same as on Windows, i can imagine there would be shift in market share.
One of the reason is needless bloat of Windows so even my for-noobs-distro idles around 0% CPU and less the 1gb memory without doing almost any tweaking but Win10/11 constantly sends calls home and idles on 4-6GB of rams. Other thing is how lightning fast linux can be.

But you have to give Valve credit for supporting Linux gaming witch if gets popular enough will create perfect competition for Windows. imagine system that requires 1GB or RAM instead of 4-5GB when idle , that doesn't spy on you and is more secure. Perfect for gaming IMHO if taken seriously.

Home school is bad because:

• what people learn isn't controlled by official requirements
• to teach kids properly one need special type of education themselves not parent who comes home at in the evening.
• there is no diploma so getting job will be like "trust me bro, ima best"
• socialization between kids is important.

That being sad US is weird in some of these aspects and they are not properly fullfilled even at schools.

Someone pointed our interesting loop in US legislative about trucks and how producers are making their cars bigger to escape small trucks hard mile/gas / size quotas + lobbying of car makers to keep the trend going because bigger car = more profit. I wonder how big they can get them before them trucks can't drive in single line. Is there something similar to SUV by any chance?

Let's not point the finger at anyone for having stupidly big cars cough 🤧 US cough 🤧

Big brother is listening...

Let me first say i agree but also let me be little bit hopefully constructively critical.

There is something called (backwards) rationalism.

... a defense mechanism in which apparent logical reasons are given to justify behavior that is motivated by unconscious instinctual impulses. ..

Rationalism also uses logic but not in sense as e.g. math of physic does. So logic is not enough in this broad sense.

So I think that basic science is the way to go in the early education stages alongside with teaching of accepting self critique and mistakes. Showing that everyone can be wrong and can become better at the thing by fixing their mistakes.

So in other words philosophy could make sense in high schools to some degree.
