When UK asylum seekers use their 'Aspen Card' (a debit payment card for basic subsistence), the UK Home Office can monitor every single purchase, sometimes with devastating consequences.

Theme hopping is just DE hopping for noobs, which is just WM hopping for noobs, which is just shell hopping for noobs, which is just distro hopping for noobs, which is just kernel hopping for noobs, which is just architecture hopping for noobs, which is just semiconductor technology hopping for noobs, which is just
sometimes when you have little choice but to use software you'd rather not use (e.g. when it's necessary to pass a class or to give an interview), careful compartmentalization is your best bet. I'm thinking about the G Suite here.

the two genders: man and info
is it better to share links to canonical sources (e.g. YouTube/Twitter/Instagram) or to Invidious/Nitter/Bibliogram and the like?
While the latter are privacy-friendly options, they likely aren't supported by native apps, if installed. Others might find the replacements unfamiliar or even straight-up annoying. Another issue is the higher likelihood of link-rot.

Just looked at some projects on Github and saw that the site no longer advertises a standard git command to copy for repo cloning. Now they encourage the use of 'Github CLI' with the syntax of 'gh repo clone'.
No doubt it's a wrapper around git that will slowly gain features that git won't add because there is no need for them.
They are no longer a 'git hub', they are a 'repo space'.
All leading to the classic, Embrace, Extend, Extinguish.
