<p>I also just moved from Linux Mint to Cachy and haven't had to use a single AUR package (yet). I use some relatively obscure programs too.</p>

<p>I was nervous about this too - but it's "just" the AUR. That means it's only unofficial packages, which we should always take great care when installing anyway.</p>

<p>Python venv's is the #1 reason I've avoided working with it more. It used to be #2 behind strong typing, but now that Linux OSes' take up the default python install and block it from being used for quick scripts, it jumped to #1.<p>I've always wondered why Linux OSes that rely on python scripts don't make their own default venv and instead clobber the user's default python environment...</p>

<p>I would agree with "should be obvious" if this was a sports news website :D. Sorry, sometimes us nerds need more context or a title will seem misleading / clickbait-y.</p>

<p>The article sure could use a picture.<p>Edit: now that I realize from the article its 16" <i>circumference</i> it's less surprising, and I can imagine what it would look like. The title should mention it is circumference.</p>

<p>I wish fewer sites would resort to 4 letter words in their titles to grab attention. These days, a title like this makes me assume the product itself is not interesting enough for me to look at.</p>

<p>I looked into Sandstorm when I moved away from NethServer; I'm a strong believer in self-hosting. Sandstorm was too haphazard with apps and security of apps didn't seem to be their highest priority. I went with Cloudron, it's a nice mix of good app selection and security.</p>

<p>It also points out that the requirement (or belief one exists) to have "clean" blood causes would-be donors to avoid drugs, which also has a benefit. I'm guessing less drugs consumed means better health, better choices, and more money available for necessities.</p>

<p>We are talking about binary computers here, there is no such thing as a "fuzzy" input or a "fuzzy" output.<p>The fact is that these MCPs are allowed to bypass all existing and well-functioning security barriers, and we cross our fingers and hope they won't be manipulated into giving more information than the previous security barriers would have allowed. It's a bad idea that people are running with due to the hype.</p>

<p>Another vote for Linux Mint. It's very easy to use and has a good blend of recent software and stability.<p>As long as you don't pick a brand new CPU/chipset the hardware support is nearly flawless as long as the laptop isn't from an overly proprietary manufacturer.<p>I do like performance, and a 2-in-1 form factor, so I went with an MSI Summit. They have cheaper models without discrete GPUs in a smaller form factor.</p>
