I'm quite surprised they actually allowed to stick unknown USB into computer they will be selling to their customers 😮

Could he be Linux guy perhaps ?

I think boss was just lazy to think about it in this case and you gave him no other choice thou 😅

😅 That's what i thought as well but it also depends on distro and their community. I've never got such a support from MS or Google as i did from these non payer dudes who do it in their free time.

Just wanted to add that i know folks who have no problem using distro like Mint but are extremely non tech. To the point they can't set up their new TV. In fact it's safer for them than Windows since they can't just go clicling yes to all dangerous operations like on Windows.

I thinkbeginner friendly distros are more difficult not for total noobs but for users who are slightly experienced with PCs and want to do medium level operations like installing specific soft outside distro repo .

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.

Bit better then when we mined coal or lithium since it's so abundant we don't have to fck up whole regions for it to get to the little bit here and there. Desalination makes sense, dried death salt lakes also seems logical etc. Salt is everywhere. People are even building artificial "caves" with salt for others to go breath salty air inside.

or don't buy city car for intercity trips. Get li-ion powered cars or wait for them to make model with bigger range.

It seems to me that car in the article is relatively small city car. I can imagine that building bigger car with inter city travels in mind would also include an improved range.

That is the case with every energy storage though in some cases it's more pronounced.

Now with lithium.... are much much much more expensive

and explosive
