Bmiddle... not happy
KHonestly the biggest issue at the high end for that is 'But we NEEED CUDAAAAAA' and Nvidia+Linux being... not great
Abazzite live image are coming:SoonTM: tho right?
CHah I'm still fighting this. Between her temu addiction and having 10 different "coupon bars" malware in her browser, my mother is like a living example of that one Friends episode...
AIt's the "not quite power users but knows enough to be dangerous" that is have trouble with Linux
KImmutable Live Image?
Kseems... not needed?
AThe installer itself does suck though
KOh ugh that'd be awful
AUltimatum: Chromebook or no tech support from me 
KYeah Anaconda is pretty 
AAs much as I'm not a fan of ChromeOS, it's perfect for users that have a tendency to accidentally shoot themselves in the foot with Windows.
Kstill a vast improvement over 30+ 3.5" floppy disks back from when I was a teen installing Slackware on my 486 laptop tho
KI don't mind it, though if the US Gov't does antitrust chop up Google it'll be interesting to see what happens with ChromeOS
AChromeOS is the closest thing we have to a mainstream Linux distro
Bwhat? No, Android
KYes but I don't know how much money Google is directly making from ChromeOS and Android, I think most of the 'profit' from those is more from them funneling people towards google services/ads
A? ChromeOS runs full Linux apps, runs on the Linux kernel, chromeOS is basically a heavily sandboxed Linux distro.
Khe's saying 'android is linux'
AAhh gotcha
AAndroid doesn't run Linux apps, that eliminated it for me as a contender
BAndroid is literally a mainstream linux distro
Bit does run linux applications in a variety of ways
Keh you can proot in termux
KI did that back when I used samsung dex
AIf it's not supported by the OS vendor, I don't count it
Kto use xfce+x11+linux apps
Bhave you heard of the true scotsman?
KSamsung did support that for a bit, but backtracked on it
ANo everyday user is going to proot termux
K(Linux on Dex)
Bno TRUE scotsman would be unaware they were using Linux while using it on their phone
AYep, I know about it. Shame Google pressured Samsung into killing it
Bgoogle's gonna bring their own desktop view
KEh
ABut basically I don't count Android since it doesn't support Linux apps ootb
Bimplemented as part of Play Services like Android Auto is
Kits crap rn
KI tried it (you can enable it in developer settings)
ADex is better
KDex/ReadyFor/whatever that thing Honour uses are all more mature
Byes, like I said, running the Linux kernel to execute ELF binaries doesn't make it a true enough scotsman
KLenovo also has 'Productivity Mode'
Kfor some phones/tablets
Alet new user try also you could create custom image easily too
BI think pretty much every live image is immutable
BI mean, traditionally they have a read-only root
Bit should be easier to make a ublue live
BI think almost all cuda users are on linux these days, right? All the ones training models at least
BLLM software targets Linux first and windows sometimes never
