I don’t use either now. I have tried both. When I started with Ubuntu i was great; fast, light, all the good stuff. Then it started to get bloated and wouldn’t run on my old machine… So I moved to Arch and it saved me and I used it for years.

Great explanation

That might be true. They have a Mastodon too https://floss.social/@tde

There are no stupid questions and the attitude of any response would be a good way to judge if using the DE is worth your time.

It appears to be maintained, which is a point in its favour.

You could send them a message on their mailing list and ask the question.

I live in France. For a time we had loads of poke places, still do. Insane that people pay €14 for a bowl of rice…

The biggest up-and-comer now is smash burgers (€15 burger prepared in 5 minutes anyone?), but might be tied with fried chicken which is also everywhere.

Prior to this we had a wave of French Taco joints (which are not tacos at all!).

I don’t live in a very large city though, so perhaps Paris, Marseille, and Toulouse have trends I haven’t seen yet.

I had a light for mine. Took 4 AA batteries. Amazing that I never complained about that… But my mom made us use rechargable batteries.

I am an ESL teacher. Generative AI is making things complicated for us, but it cannot replace learning the language. Right now, things like ChatGPT are presented as some sort of solution, but it is so far off and sometimes too obvious.

Like you mentioned, you think and reason differently in different languages. Plus, some people just love learning languages.

Aside: I am of the opinion that OpenAI and ChatGPT will disappear within 2 to 3 years. Their investors will abandon them leaving them drowning in debt, Sam Altman will face the same fate as Elizabeth Holmes. At some point his grift of asking for more money, hardware, electricity, water, etc., will be revealed.
