This is very cool:

So, Windows 10s EOL is near and if your pc is 2016 or older you might not be able to update. Do not throw your pc away, it is perfectly usable, just install Linux

hey i know the programs are a bit clunky sometimes and the obsession with linux is a bit annoying but after seeing pretty much every big tech company fall in line with fascism maybe the open source guys had a point

pretty sure the fascist dystopia will have unskippable ads

That's definitely up to personal preference; but I like using mine in light mode only if I am in an extremely bright room and/or if there is a glare on the screen.

Other than that, I do prefer the general feel and aesthetic of dark mode in my code editors.

3) Install VLC.

sudo dnf install vlc

This package also comes with some multimedia codecs you may need.

Enjoy your first venture into Fedora! It's a great distro.

To be clear, GrapheneOS is Android, but hardened and including the ability to opt out of Google Play Services and use more private and anonymous methods to access Google Play applications.

GrapheneOS even provides a tool on their website to flash the appropriate image to your device.

If needed, the original OS can be flashed back on through similar means.

Some phones' operating systems are more difficult to replace than others. Google Pixels are famously straight forward to flash, which I have experience with on old and new Pixels. GrapheneOS is a good alternative option, but it is just for Pixels as far as I know. LineageOS is another alternative.

Signal Messenger: Speak Freely Say "hello" to a different messaging experience. An unexpected focus on privacy, combined with all of the features you expect.

If you haven't used Signal (signal.org) or haven't used it in a while, here are some features that may be selling points besides being Open Source and End to End Encrypted:

1) It's free!

2) Cross compatible with Android, iOS, Windows, Mac, and Linux. Fix green text bubbles and broke group chats.

We've implemented a system for notifying users when apps use the Play Integrity API. This will help users determine which apps are banning using a non-stock OS. Some of these will still work if they only enforce basic integrity rather than requiring a Google certified device running the stock OS.

Linux user here. I would recommend that you use any old "regular" computer to introduce him to Linux instead as the rpi3 is very weak and using it with a GUI would likely frustrate your 11yo with how laggy it is. I use an rpi3 headless (no GUI) and I love it, but it is not suited to a GUI, IMO.

I like classical for when I am coding too, but also any instrumental metal or even ambient noise. Binaural beats are nice to listen to while coding as well.

Here is an instrumental metal piece I was listening to today.

Cool playlist btw!

Gentoo, no joke! Easy access to different versions & features of packages with no stable or unstable repo distinction. Customize the kernel to support only the hardware & features that I need. The system can easily be setup with whatever combination of init-system and DE that I like, using profiles.

Here are some decent articles on the subject if you are interested:

You would name the file like: <appimage name>.desktop, (angle brackets not included), set the values for the executable and icon, and you should see an icon

If you do end up wanting to add icons accessible from the quick search for your external software, you should be able to use .desktop files. They are formatted like the attached image, and you can put yours in ~/.local/share/applications, or whatever the value of the $XDG_DATA_DIRS env variable is.

That's my understanding of it, yes! For example, there is nothing stopping me from making a new directory called "Software" anywhere in my home directory and storing all my external software there. As long as your appimage executable is owned by your user, it shouldn't have a problem in ~/<anydir>

You're right, that's not the ideal location. I am not here to tell you what to do, but /usr/local and /opt are both common places to install software on Linux. BUT if you will be the only user accessing this software on the computer, it is common to install software in ~/.local/bin for your user.
