Sadly voting didn't fail you. US is in the same predicament UK was in after Brexit. Complacency at the expected outcome, a belief that some people couldn't be so stupid as to vote for Trump/Brexit and yet, they did in the majority.
Regardless of how fucked up the election process is, inany countries I'm not singling out the US, that is the reason that you feel failed, look at your countrymen that swallowed the snake oil and ask the question why?
5th Nov 2024 - was the chance to prevent this. Trump's team made it clear on the direction they were heading and no-one heeded the warnings. 35% didn't vote and the majority of those that did voted for him, which either means they agree with the direction or were deluded into thinking it wasn't going to happen.
I'm all for protest but I don't think you have a chance of changing anything, he owns the legislature and the voting public allowed it to happend.
I'm not American or a resident of US but that's just my opinion as an outsider.
At this point your guess is as good as mine. I e also set up Jellyseer for discovery and ability for users to request stuff but still a reluctance to move.
Sadly I still pay for a service I don't use because I have members of my house who are relucant to embrace the change. I, on the other hand, am more than happy with my Jellyfin and assorted apps to provide my content from whichever source I choose, now if only I could cadjole the others into embracing the freedom of the high seas.
Honestly, anything below the age of majority is sketchy (excepting a romeo and julet clause) IMHO and I was surprised the average was 16.
Uh, no. World wide average age of consent is 16.

The only superior Linux distro and DE is the one that works for you and meets your needs.
This is different for each user and, frankly, the joy of Linux that it has such a variety as to be able to meet almost everyone's needs.
For me , personally, thats Debian/Gnome with minimal tweaks but just because it works for my workflow does not make it superior.
Then see what the weather does and whether it's worth venturing out for a walk.
Take care of yourself and thank you for bringing us this awesome instance.
For specific device recommendations, you seem to be particularly interested in making use of Black Friday deals, and thus I’d assume that price is an important factor. Unfortunately, most Linux-first vendors aren’t particularly known for offering great buck for your money. This does make it easier to choose, though.
Sadly yes, budget is important, additionally System76/Framework are out as they don't ship to my location and are quite out of my budget unfortunately and I'd rather not use a shipping agent. Given all the advice that's been given I think the points everyone has made are especially valid and I should wait until more funds are available and purchase a more suitable laptop.
I'm looking at slimbook as they can deliver with EndeavourOS OOB but still will be a harder delivery option but also have more budget options.
I have a Dell Latitude now and it's been great running EndeavourOS but has now developed a hardware issue so I'm searching black Friday for a replacement.
Link previews seem to be broken since upgrade. As you can see this isn't from all instances so is this a federation issue or an upgrade issue?
For what it's worth I get the same experience in Voyager app on Android as well as web-ui.
Anyone else experiencing the same?
VAT is applied to all goods irrelevant of origination. Think of it as a federal sales tax instead of a state sales tax.
There are different rates dependent on the goods and some items are VAT free (again this has nothing to do with origin but to do with the product} i.e. I'm fairly sure that in UK children's clothes are either exempt or VAt at a lower rate.
