The Questions

-

@linuxlads what age should do you think a child should have ownership of an internet connected device such as a mobile phone or computer? If you were a parent, would you implement some “lockdown” on their devices? Do you think your approach would be significantly different from the parents of your kids peers?

@techcelt @linuxlads @killyourfm @felimwhiteley @sil Cupcakes vs Muffins? 😎😆

Immutable operating systems are the future of the desktop, change my mind

@linuxlads I have two questions. If you could not use your main OS, which one would you pick and why? The second question is, what is your ideal weather? Since I moved to the UK from Costa Rica, people ask me if I hate the weather, but I find it pleasant, It rains less and it never gets too hot.
