Mullvad works fine on both LMDE and stock mint fwiw

Ubuntu is derived from Debian.
In linux there are 3 “popular” parent trees (plus a couple more obscure ones)
Debian tree, RedHat tree and Arch tree.
Debian is “parent” to Ubuntu is parent to Mint (standard versions)
LMDE applies Cinnamon and Mint tools to Debian.
Mint defaults to LTS. You can install the latest kernel through the upgrade manager
You can install the 6.2 kernel on mint through the upgrade manager gui. It’s just a couple of clicks.
On the other hand Mint has a reputation for “just works” because the defaults are indeed LTS
Yes. There’s numerous live examples which have been in place for years (Horndale South Australia for example)
LMDE is the backup plan the guy you replied to was referencing.
It’s rough around the edges compared to mint cinnamon but it works just fine, just needs a bit more customising attention after the install.
Putin has transparently murdered dozens of people far more important to the West without being toppled.
Russia’s newly displayed military impotence shifts the calculus, but Prighozin isn’t the guy to cause an international uproar.
That isn’t however the argument the article is making (noting I’m rather dubious on it).
They’re not arguing that NATO will suddenly invade because Pringles got SAM’d.
They’re arguing that a) the Wagner lieutenants are competent and experienced which makes it likely that they are not only capable but likely to be effective at seeking vengeance; and b) that Putin has systematically culled all the competent generals and hence there’s a reduced capability.
Now I’m dubious on the likelihood of the first, and while the second is true I’m not as convinced it will be a game changer.
With any luck this was instead of diddling the choir boys, if so then have at it.
Sure, it’s been a while since China had to protect its currency from negative pressure, and it’s in reuters because it’s a clear market signal. However a softening economy isn’t unusual generally, just a first in decades for China.
It’s as much a sign that as a country they’re maturing past the developing country growth wave they’ve been on, and hitting the cycles that developed nations need to manage. Couple that with a trade war with the US slowing down key parts of the economy and it’s notable but not surprising.
Those predicting a wholesale economic collapse will however be just as disappointed as they were 12months ago when predicting a real estate lead crash.
Fairly standard central bank activity, nothing unusual in and of itself.
Russia also targets civilians, hospitals and pizzerias, there is no safe place in Ukraine.
You can have secureboot on mint. On mobile but I’ll search up a link when at desk. It’s not terribly hard given Mint is derived from Ubuntu. Should come up in a search if you’re impatient
Ok but that reddit mod (it was /r/Linux right ? ) was eventually booted for being an utter arse and I’m 98% sure he didnt run Arch (he had a foss purism thing going and iirc was on debian)
I mean toxicity at reddit is why most of us are now on lemmy right ?
The South African government is aligned to Russia and China despite the general population having strong ties with the West.It’s all about the Chinese backhanders.
Corrupt leaders gunna do what corrupt leaders do.
OP claims to have successfully installed arch to confirm it’s not a hardware issue fwiw
No prob.
In my opinion always check the arch wiki if you’re having problems, even if you’re not running Arch, it’s a gobsmackingly good repository of linux knowledge
Did you check the wiki ? If you look that model up on
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/CUPS/Printer-specific_problems you check the wiki ?
And click on brlaser (the default driver) you’ll find a comment pointing to a fork of the driver

Hope that helps. If you’d already gone through that then sorry to waste your time
Ditto. I’ve literally never had an aur package break my system either, but like you if it doesnt want to play first go, I’ll almost always find an alternative.
Which, again, misses the point. Original OP said “install native” replying OP said “but what about (package)” (obviously intending that to be a gotcha) and I replied with “well it’s in mine”
I have no idea what debs& rpms are available, nor do i care.
And what is this “possibly broken aur” rubbish ? It’s a repository, and it most certainly isn’t broken.
Individual packages may be broken but they can be broken in any repository. Are you saying there’s never been a broken package in a debian repository ? Lol.
Edit to correct “you” to “OP” as you aren’t the original person doing the “whataboutism”
Good. He deserves to be banned
