so far, so amazingly good. the Dell 5290 has a close keyboard but with a nice haptic response and despite less RAM and similar bogomips to my old ZaReason, everything media has been smooth as glass in #Debian13 - never thought I would say so, but if you are new to pondering Linux for that machine that can't do Win11, for everyday use or science lab stuff unfettered by clouds, I wouldn't go near Ubuntu, you'll be just fine in Debian.

A word on this campaign:
Obviously ICE advertises elsewhere — duh — and sure, go ahead and boycott all the places that carry their ads if you can. BUT…
…don’t miss the strategy here! The point is not to hit everything at once, and thus hit ineffectively. “Target everything” is the opposite of targeting.
The point is to choose •one• target, hit them so it •visibly• hurts, and thus make every other place that carries ICE ads afraid they’ll be next. https://mastodon.social/@indivisibleteam/115459020985945312
