Replace kali with nixos, and it'd be accurate 😁 Also, gentoo.

And Kali is more like "are you older than 13 → no"

Shouldn't be too complicated, tbh, since armbian folks did all the hard work 😁

As a matter of fact, they're not.

Kinda depends: for me pretty much all de-s are complicated. I mean what happens when you want a de to do X? I used to go to settings/whatever, then google the problem in like 10 different ways when I inevitably don't find it. And with wm-s you just search the wiki

Today I tried armbian... On a TV-box. At first everything was fine, then this bastard decided to install firefox as a snap; and also it died after update.

In other words, I'm installing nixos there next

Except when your drive is encrypted you can easily destroy its contents. Let's say you're DorkPirate1337 who happens to care about their opsec; you luksEncrypt your drive and have a simple script that runs when a specific USB key is disconnected, triggers luksErase, and then poweroffs. Voila, when the school principal snatches your unlocked laptop while you're in the lib, all your pirated hentai becomes permanently unaccessible whether you give up the password or not. [Edit: the USB key is strapped to your wrist]

Note: luks uses 2 encryption keys, where one is randomly generated and encrypts the actual data, and the second one is given by the user and encrypts the first one; luksErase destroys the luks header containing that first key

Well, duh. Kinda funny how windows server is a better desktop windows than a regular windows. Basically, you get less candy_crush-like crap plus only security updates, as far as I remember. But yeah, there are different unnecessary features (unless you're in the corporate environment, ofc)

Although, I'm not really sure nowadays since I haven't used windows for a few years 😅

In my experience, win 8.1 < win 10: less CPU and ram hogging, less telemetry, and overall less frustration. Although, yeah, you'd have to replace metro crap with something less tablet-oriented.

Alternatively, server editions are OK.

Regarding domain names: tailscale funnel rocks!

Android be like: bionic/linux

Dinit ftw!

Also, mixing stable and unstable packages; also nix run/shell/develop. On the other hand, error messages sometimes outcompete those from cpp in being confusing AF 🤣
