YSK: If you find an interesting topic/rabbit hole, you can get some real engagement here if you share it. It doesn't get drowned out like elsewhere.
The down the rabbit hole youtube channel is really great for mildly obscure interesting topics.

Are trackless trams here to help solve our light rail problems?
Interesting idea, it is sort of like an AI driven bus that sticks to bus lanes

AI might take over the world, but probably not funeral services.

People who condemn Russia for invading Ukraine are hypocrites
Most European territories serve the USA’s geopolitical goals. Sanctions against Russia right now are part of that. There’s nothing moral about it. It’s simply a service to the USA for being in its sphere of influence. There is nothing, not a single shred of integrity in that.
European countries must send a strong message that war in Europe is not worth it... hence sanctions. They are not dooing it because they "serve the USA’s geopolitical goals".

Reasons to consider NOT switching to Linux
Hardware problems/poor drivers: Linux runs well on some devices and not so well.on others. It is largely up to the manufacturer to make drivers so this will improve if manufacturers want to support Linux.
Software availability: Projects like nix, app image and flathub try to fix this by providing a way developers can package their app so that it can be used on all distros. As far as I can tell:
As far as I can tell nix is the best option long term but it doesn't have a simple gui yet/at the moment. Although there is one being worked on.

Please boycott Brave
I don't really agree that Brave should not be used because of a toxic fanbase.
I think the best reason not to use Brave is that they are a marketing/advertising company that claims to give their users privacy. Advertising companies will always have an incentive to invade privacy as it increase add revenues. Brave is just copying Google's business model with extra steps.
