AI at this point is little more than the software that has the ability to parse human language coupled with a little web crawling. Anybody that tells you different is looking for investment.

Re: Best Basic backup solution

Have a look at Duplicati it's dead easy to use and to be brutally honest it makes most other open source backup tools look like toys. I tried to install the product but it would not install. I have tried to enclose an image of the error screen but this environment will not show it. Sorry it isn't w...

Re: Linux Mint 21.1 Beta... Has anyone been trying this out?

Works well for me for the most part, even like the new icons. Had to change the accent colour to grey though, that aqua close button against grey steel just look like a smudge to my eyes. However I am having a few issues with Flatpaks: "The package providing /app/bin/appname could not be found....

There isn't a black n white answer that anyone can offer you here. Make an honest list of what you value most in an OS and decide which one ticks the most boxes for you. Done!

Re: Help me please

Windows can't read Linux partitions without extra software. Assuming you installed Linux on an Ext4 partition then https://github.com/mregmi/ext2read is a GUI tool that should help. Another way would be to use WSL-2 and mount the drive using that, however, it would require a lot more work and the le...
