I don't know man. As someone who's been using PCs for decades with occasionally dabbling with stuff on Linux shells, I've tried to install Arch on my laptop a couple months ago and I kept running into one problem after another while trying to follow the Arch wiki installation guide. Maybe if the guide had a single set of instructions that would work majority of the times, instead of branching into options, and only cursory mention of critical stuff that should not be left out mentioned in footnotes, it'd be easier to install. After the second attempt that took a full evening I just gave up.

Thanks to this guide I've stopped banging my head against the wall trying to install Arch on a laptop and just ended up putting Mint on it. Nearly everything works out of the box, and Cinnamon seems to be close enough to what a Windows user would expect, and then some, seeing how customizable it is.

I'll bang my head against the wall again once I've familiarized myself with it.

Thanks again OP!

Oh yeah? IBM PC Jr keyboards have an extra 7th row on them?

In all seriousness, the BBC micro could probably render it.

Really cool ship in the distance though.

I didn't. It was a stab in the dark. 50/50 chance.

What did make you enter a prison voluntarily?

Too bad that it will turn into a brick once meta decides to axe their VR department.

Other countries have a similar system. Canada for example has the Start-up Visa, which requires about C$225k investment, or the Quebec one (now suspended) which required C$1.25m over five years.

From what I can tell, the Hungarian requires somewhere between 200 and 300k EUR. This is not something that is affordable or easy to attain for the average lemmy poster. But again, this also does not guarantee citizenship, just residency.

In short, requesting a work or study visa and then trying for the citizenship test five years later, after having learned the language, is probably a much more attainable way. But still far from the easiest country to emigrate to.

This is not true. You need to have years of presence OR have Hungarian ancestry and a few years less presence OR be married to a Hungarian for a couple years. Top this off with being able to know the Hungarian language.

I wonder now, I never feel like I need to ride there. Could that be a geometry difference depending on arm and torso length thing? Hood always seems to be comfortable enough for me.

You could just upgrade to 28c if they fit your frame. I have an early road-ish gravel that fits those tires and it handles pretty well.
