@Kalcifer You worded your title, "What’s a good store to buy Linux, OR… so this suggests you’re looking to buy Linux OR in general open source related merch. I just addressed the first portion, you might be able to buy related merch.

From what I’ve read 1e100.net belongs to Google, so yea it’s a virus.
You BUY MacOS or WhenBlows, but Linux is generally free to download. You can buy support from some vendors such as Ubuntu, Redhat, Mandriva, and Manjaro, but in all cases I am aware of, Linux itself is free.
Nextcloud yes, Google, might as well ask for a direct data link the the NSA data warehouse in Utah.
@SeaJ I agree on time, 24 hours makes it a lot easier to communicate times with people in other time zones and easier to calculate from GMT.
Chinas largest to smallest unit makes sense to me since it’s the same as Arabic numbers, largest to smallest, and so sorting order would also be same.
Actually not accurate for “Rest of the World”, China uses year month day.
@Zyansheep Also both have their same evils, instead of using system shared libraries (and thus sharing memory) they are bringing their own libraries. If every large application did that we’d need a terabyte of RAM in our PC’s. Maybe a decade from now that will be affordable but beyond my budget at present.
@Zyansheep I don’t know the answer to that, the point is switching from one to the other is problematic. If I switch to flatpak and it happens to be newer but is even worse, then I can’t switch back.
@Zyansheep The main problem with switching versions of Firefox is if you go backwards, i.e., if the flatpack is even one point release behind the existing, it’s very difficult to get the existing profile to work. I’ve compiled my own version which seemed like the ultimate solution, then the version doesn’t change unless I decide it does, but wasn’t able to read my old profile which is a problem.
@randint I do like PPA’s so like most things there are things you don’t like and things you like, and for what it’s worth I have a Manjaro, Debian, Ubuntu, Centos7, Fedora, CentosStream, Mint, Zorin, and MxLinux machines, most of them virtual machines, but Ubuntu is my daily driver, Debian I use for kernel builds because Debian needs signed kernel packages and other distros are OK with them. The others I need if I’m working on something specific to Redhat or that particular distro.
I’ve not been fond of Chrome and Edge because of the spyware aspect, but Firefox lately has become so friggin’ flakey since it’s gone snap that it’s almost unusable and now that there is a Linux version of Edge, it actually seems to operate quite smoothly.
Does it provide an error message? Might try lower level, dpkg -r libnvidia-compute-470.
This is what happens under fascism.
Mostly things like yank cut-n-paste, and it deals properly with international two-byte character sets, but nvi has those same advantages PLUS has fully implemented ex command set. Nano is fine for quick notes or sending an e-mail but not so good for editing large sets of code. Anyway, he probably is thinking of another chick because “she” looks too much like a “he”.
Actually, I have my public facing servers configured to listen to 443 as well. Why? Because many corporate and public space wifi spots like libraries, will block 22, but allow 443 for https, so on my shell servers, I also listen to 443.
