Many comms moved to piefed, are they counted in that graph?

Yeah, and with mobile apps maturing I've actually seen people handle their whole business from an iPad. They had a consultant do the heavy lifting though so they just had to audit and send the pre-made invoices and payments in their iPad.

I find using https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/hls-stream-detector/? makes it simple to grab streams url and download them using yt-dlp.

Could be an idea to make it easier to set a grub password during distro installation, that I can agree on.

Honestly I simply found the statement to give very little to discuss.
Regarding editing the Kernel command line; that would require that you already have access to your Debian install and have the rights to edit the Kernel command line.

Regarding your link in general I find myself at odds with development practices that removes my own agency. I can see how for many end-users it's good, just like how most car owners shouldn't try to fix their car troubles themselves, but I would start looking for another OS if it starts pulling auto-updating á la Windows.

  • Most users don't need SELinux and aren't expecting anything more than firewalld. Those that do have the option to enable and configure it.
  • New users are expected to keep using their distributions app store (Discover for KDE, Software for GNOME) not randomly run code in their terminal that they don't understand.
  • That's quite a lot more choice than other OSes offer.
  • What problems would that be? Grub works just fine for me.

Kockums carbon steel pans are nice too. The wife likes that they aren't as heavy as cast iron pans tend to be.

This is one of those things I think you can find locally in many EU countries, f.e.

https://staubshop.com/staub-cast-iron-pan/ - France (German owner since 2008)
https://www.fiskars.com/en/cooking/product-families/norden - Finland (Scroll down to find the Cast Iron)

Reform UK has announced it would give non-doms the chance to avoid some UK taxes by paying a £250,000 fee[...]

"Many talented people are leaving and we want as many entrepreneurs, as many risk-takers, as many job creators, as many people paying lots of tax, as many people investing huge sums of money."

Because letting someone not pay taxes is gonna help with getting tax payers?

[..] (1) climate change is happening (‘It’s real’); (2) human activity is causing climate change (‘It’s us’); (3) there is a scientific consensus about human-caused climate change (‘Experts agree’); (4) climate change harms people (‘It’s bad’); (5) a majority of people are concerned about climate change and support climate action (‘Others care’); and (6) actions can be taken to limit the harm (‘There’s hope’).[..]

I find that the last ones, (5) a majority of people are concerned about climate change and support climate action (‘Others care’); and (6) actions can be taken to limit the harm (‘There’s hope’)., are the ones I'm failing some days.
There's just too much news that appear to tell the opposite of (5) and that leads to not believing in (6).

You've chosen an immutable distro based on rpm-ostree. If you want to install a program/application/app then flatpak is the way.
Heroic Launcher works great for installing GOG/Epic games but if you want to install a game or other program from an offline installer then I still fall back to Lutris.

For more in-depth read up on rpm-ostree and flatpak
