Devils advocate - you might be getting extra layer of testing, by the “derived” distro testing community.
I mean if they do any, it may be more focussed on the combo of setup and software you prefer.
So a small reduction in risk of bugs?

I thnik ubuntu did have a pupose in 2002 or whenever - it was a step foward in ease of install, and out of the box experience, esp. for noobs.
Now most have that, including stock debian. even arch comes with the idspispopd script these days.

also if you “need” the data on SCSI.
2 backups are recommended anyway, but esp before fdisking around with partitions.

Fought over since before most “commodities” existed , and maybe most religions -at many scales from the world, to countries, to a sopt by the river bank, or the comfy chair in the living room - including by various human and non-human species.
Pursuit of economic and political power though control/acquisition of land just has so much glorious and colourful heritage; it’s no mere pleb of a commodity .
Something most everyone could use just a little bit more of.

Not everyone could use more cars and tangerines.
cars and tangerines have a generally more competetive market of sustitutes.
Land doesn’t really have substitues.

If i could build a house/farm out of tangerines without any land needed, i’d get your point,

you right they’re not meaningless.
In the hands of the right demagogue they can be powerful tools for creating and extending stimgatisation and division - and undermining society and weakening the grown-up methods of resolving social stresses.

Daryl Davis arguably did try to get along with the kkk.
There might not be many like him and it might be a drop in the ocean, but at least it isn’t no-one who wants to try to do the difficult thing.

haha, that is cool

Trees breed by putting their babies into extremely resilient, heat and cold protected stasis pods that can go centuries without care and attention in the right conditions - like suviving an ice age or forest fire.

Human babies are wimps by comparison - most of them would die after only a few days left outside at 0 degrees C.

Humans probably will survive too - but how many?
Elon + all this 3 mates.

good cross platforms too.
I’ve used it from win, osx, linux, android.
It just finds the DLNA and CIFS shares from my nas so naturally in the library - better than thunar.
I just wish my “smart” TV had it.

Yeah, though previously you did have k-lite codec pack, and media player classic (i’m talking win 2k / xp days)

VLC did just dominate though.

because you chose canonical over debian.

give stock debian a try
