The problem here is not Ubuntu in itself. If you use a kernel version that does not have the drivers for your new on the market device no distro would work properly, even Arch.

Why did you get one and what is in it?

Configs are usually not overwritten but the old settings is copied to a new folder set. Your old settings aren’t gone and you can downgrade your IDE so it will use the old settings.

Ubuntu software repos ship ancient software. You have to live with issues that were solved years ago.

Can you name some examples? I mostly use Firefox, IDEs and VLC and they are up to date.

Ubuntu kernels are also old and have issues with recent laptops…

If you really need a newer kernel there is no problem to install one, but a lot of users don’t need and don’t care as long as the system runs fine. 25.04 is 4 months old on kernel 6.14 which is not that old. Of course LTS versions have older kernels, but that’s what LTS distros are about, stable software, not bleeding edge updates.

Ubuntu was stupid to push snap on everyone. Flatpaks are much better.

Please explain why that is with credible up-to-date sources for you claim. I never had big issues and use both. And both can deliver buggy software, that’s for sure.

But it’s meh for laptops.

Some laptops, yes, but it’s always a bit of gamble. If the laptop is generally well supported like ThinkPads, System76, Tuxedo or Framework you will have much less or no issues compared to other manufacturers.
But i won’t generalize it. I used a Dell, then a Acer Aspire R 13 and now a Framework and never had issues. Even the convertible touch display of the Acer worked as intended by the manufacturer.

Was wäre denn besser gewesen? Abknallen? Was denkst du wäre in freier Wildbahn passiert?

It really makes the kids better people. I mean, look at us Germans, we’ve never done anything wrong…

No. I don´t use google, and i don’t use the internet without ad block.

And destroying the rating system from points based, to thumps up and down relation, to thumps up only.

It can be powerful, if you know what you are doing. But it also gives you a lot of wrong answers. You have to be very specific in your prompts to get good answers. If you are an experience programmer, you can spot if the semantics of the code an ai produces is wrong, but for beginners? They will have a lot of bugs in their code. And i don’t know if it’s more helpful than reading a book. It surely can help with the syntax of different programming languages. I can see a future where ai assistance in coding will become better but as of know, from what i have seen, i am not that convinced atm. And i tested several, chatgpt (in different versions), github co-pilot, intellij ai assitant, claude 3, llama 3.

And if i have to put in 5 or more long, very specific sentences, to get a function thats maybe correct, it becomes tedious and you are most likely faster to think about a problem in deep and code a solution all by yourself.

You don’t need AI for that, for years you asked a search engine and got the answer on StackOverflow.

In a family you share everything, right?

If it will be released one day, far in the future…
