Generally, if in the same country you'd have to comply. As another example though: If your server was in Canada, and some department in Alabama wanted your data, you could tell them to pound sand. Though they may put some sort of warrant out for you for failure to comply (doesn't matter though if you never go there)

Been straight Linux since 2005ish. It's definitely really improved just before COVID - things just work now without fiddling. In the past yeah, I had to fiddle quite a bit to make things work and write up some scripts for installs that would break next patch, but now I'm almost done a Witcher 3 play-through on Linux without even needing to adjust a thing.

If you haven't figured it out yet or got a response yet, hop onto the instance admin group on matrix for Lemmy (details are on the GitHub or join Lemmy page somewhere I believe) and one of the many other folks running instances can probably walk you through it

I've been happy with Bitwarden thus far. Used Lastpass back in the day, but migrated over when the renewal prices started creeping up.

1. O365 usually works fine for the online portion on most browsers, so that should be okay for their use. And won't require them to change habits in terms of how to use the software. (Bonus: cloud storage of their documents.) Only downside is they'll likely need an active internet connection to do anything
2. This one is tricky. I've had mixed experience getting newer Adobe products running in Wine, but it's been awhile for me so I'd say try it yourself. There are probably a bunch of good FOSS/cloud options available nowadays too if annotating, commenting, etc that maybe others can elaborate more on
3. Easy peasy, Brave does work well and should help them avoid malware on "those websites"

I'd say any LTS release you can get a working setup of Adobe in should be fine for them. 90% of what they're going to do is probably via a browser so it's OS-agnostic. I'm fond of Debian since it's very stable, but it comes with the drawback of older packages as time goes on, though you can pull in repos for more recent stuff for most important things.

What do they plan to do with it? Just browse to gmail/facebook/etc? If so, really anything with a web browser that can stay up-to-date and they should be fine. LTS releases are good in that case.

If anything more than that, then might have to be a bit more selective with the distro.

Surprised it's not mentioned here, but Bzflag.

Super fun tank shooter game that doesn't take much to run, and reminds me of a cross between the very old bolo game and Mario kart's battle mode.

Nope - rust only for the backend. Node runs the frontend. Could definitely use a bot library in golang - it's the language I program in daily so I'd definitely appreciate it

$. Plus, it's been awhile and the writers have loooots of material over the years to work with I'd think. Also sounds like the general cast/animators/writers have fun with making the show

Yeah - this was a tad annoying at work today. Thank god for terraform if outages had become more severe

Been working fine on brave for me, haven't had any issues

That too! All boils down to the unexpected. Reddit back in the day was always crashing too, only really remember it being stable the past few years
