My kid discovered that he can hit the "report" button on the YouTube app on the TV to skip the ads immediately. So now every ad gets reported as "inappropriate".

I've registered as republican a long time ago to vote in their primaries so just in case the republican nomination won the general election, it was at least someone I could somewhat tolerate until the next election. People do do this.
I think it's the other way around...you WANT everything he touches to be a scam.
I don't like the guy either, but Starlink is a real, actual product that tons of people are using just fine right now. Also, his rockets are allowing the US to continue to send personnel to the space station without relying on Russia. That is not a scam either.

I'm not sure how a tokomak or laser confinement reactor translates to nuclear weapons. Those are completely different processes for creating fusion reactions. A fusion bomb literally just explodes a fission bomb next to the fusion fuel to get it started. No lasers or magnetic fields required, because the fuel in that case is compressed by a carefully engineered blast wave.

Why? I'd use the shit out of them at work. I work on construction sites. It'd be awesome to have an app to superimpose the finished plans on top of what I'm seeing so I don't have to constantly refer back to the paper prints. No more measuring shit five times, just install it exactly as you see it.
"PC" actually refers to a specific architecture based on the original IBM PC. PCs are personal computers but not all personal computers are PCs.
It'd be like as if we still referred to ARM-based devices as being "Acorn" devices. It's one of those brand names that the public has turned into a generalized noun, like Kleenex and Bandaids.
Does anyody really look at anyone in an ad and say, "Yes, that's a fellow human, I connect with them on a personal level"?
I've been perceiving them as robots since 1986. Because even as a child I knew people in an ad don't act or talk like everybody I knew in real life and what they were portraying was completely made up, unrealistic dialog and scenarios.
It's very easy to remove that and ask for a password on first boot. It could literally be one line in a shell script. They could put it in a text menu if they want to get fancy.
More professional (non-hobby) RP based devices probably aren't using stock vanilla Raspbian anyway.
Who said I'd never talk to them about it? I'd just like to do it in a controlled manner at an appropriate age and prepare them without them seeing the most depraved shit right off the bat. Is that unreasonable?
If you don't have a specific need that only Linux can fulfill, or are not an advocate of open source software or don't really care, then why make yourself go through this and not just stick with Windows if it works so much better for you?
I can use it fine, because A., I don't have to work with anybody else, and B. I use it mostly for programming and electronics engineering, which it excels at. You have other use cases, so it's probably not a good fit. I'm not the kind of person that will blindly push Linux on everybody and their grandmother while lying through their teeth about the "easy" user experience. I ain't gonna sugarcoat it, it's an OS developed by tinkerers for tinkerers, and if you're not a tinkerer, you're going to get frustrated.
