The duck should be Linux Mint, the only linux distro thats never given me an issue on any computer I used in my life. Sometimes I contemplate turning off timeshift because its been years since i've needed it and the 30-50gb space could be better used.
It's actually pretty easy to permanently disable updates in Windows.
- Go to Services.msc
- Find Windows Update Services
- Changed it to Disabled
Done.
How is letting you brick your install with little warning an advantage?
rm -rf / you dont have permission to do that.
sudo rm -rf / [linux dutifully commits sudoku until rm itself is gone]
You can't delete system apps on Android, but you can disable the ones that won't break your phone if they're disabled. I currently have Chrome, the Play Store (and, at least to an extent, Google Play Services), YouTube, and YouTube Music all disabled.
Just installed Ubuntu today for the first time in at least a decade. Touchpad two-finger scrolling is so sensitive. There’s no setting for it. I have to replace the driver with the synapse one, if my laptop supports it.
You can delete system apps on Android with ADB. Doesn't even need root.
