My wife had never seen Breaking Bad, so I’m inducing her to one of the best TV shows of all time.

I ran into the same issue you did. No verification email, and my login credentials won’t work on the app or on the website.

It helped me tremendously in college, and I still use it today, both for past knowledge retention, as well as learning some new things. It is an incredible tool.

As far as the learning curve goes, I would recommend this: just use it as is. You can dive down a rabbit hole of optimizing your learning approach and adding the right extensions, but that time is better spent just studying what you want to learn.

Use the Cloze format, keep cards limited to a couple sentences at most, and practice daily for a couple minutes, and you can’t go wrong.

In the near to mid future, I think an answer to this question are Internal Combustion Engines. I love electric vehicles and look forward to the tech improving. But the sheer coolness factor of moving a large machine through perfectly timed and calibrated explosions is tough to beat.

I’d recommend everyone to buy a Kobo over these, its much easier to read your own .pdf and .epub files than on a Kindle.

I have the Framework 13 and am currently running the COSMIC alpha on Pop!_OS. I love my current setup, but have tried Fedora Kinoite as well, and also had a great experience. Apart from running a few commands to get the fingerprint reader working, I haven’t really had to troubleshoot anything. Its been a solid experience from Day 1.

So far, I’m really impressed with how COSMIC is turning out. Depending on your use case, it might not be ready for daily driving, but it works perfectly for my needs. Its especially impressive as an Alpha, because it freezes up a lot less on me compared to KDE.

I can run Llama3 on my desktop with a 3060, answers are near instant.

Pop!_OS or something like Bazzite would be decent choices.

Maybe a pipe dream, but I would love to see RedoxOS get some traction. A rust based microkernel is a promising concept.

The new COSMIC desktop by System76 and Pop!_OS is very promising. I’ve been running the pre-alpha, and have been very impressed.
