  • Ai is intransparent to nearly everyone, and as such should not be used for voting or similar.

    Blockchain is a way to ensure no one can tamper with the history of some data undetected, which might be used for keeping a count of the votes, but for most normal people it is also intransparent, so it should only be used with caution if simpler methods are not an option.

    I never heard of DAOs before, but seeing the start of the wikipedia entry, it looks like an interesting way to use technology. But it suffers the same problem as the two other technologies: it is intransparent for a lot of people. Also if there is a bug in the software (which will happen at some point in time), it will be hard to fix it.
















  • You should take a look at linux mint. I recently setup linux mint on a laptop, and it asked me to enroll a mok so that secure boot works with extra media codecs. On my pc i also installed the nvidia drivers pretty easily. Also mint is a ubuntu derivate, but snaps are disabled by default. Its not as fast as rolling release distros, but if you install the lastest mint version, you get the packages of the latest ubuntu lts version.
