  • I looked into distros using plasma 6 for a bit, but decided it wasn’t worth the hassle. It’s also a not trivial boot setup (dual boot with w11 and bitlocker + LUKS + secureboot) and the (k)ubuntu installer just handled it flawlessly (meaning not having to enter my bitlocker key on every boot)

    Works fine for me (except some weird locale issue, but I knew that in advance)



  • iDEAL sounds a lot like Bancontact/Payconic in Belgium.

    Which doesn’t do everything Paypal does either. Others have mentioned the buyer protection, but there’s also multiple payment methods you can link to it, subscription management, and one-click payments (where it also enters your address for shipping) - and crucially: available worldwide.



  • It’s quite common to login as admin on windows though (in home setups), you’ll still have to authenticate for administrative tasks (the UAC popups).

    The issue here is mostly that the user has probably upgraded and windows changed their account, resulting in the files being owned by their old account.

    In linux, that’s fixable with ‘sudo chmod -R’

    In Windows, there’s no built-in way, you need the take ownership script.
