  • best option

    Ubuntu is popular and new-user friendly. And xfce is generally lighter on resources. It’s a good choice.

    What can I do

    Almost everything.
    Some proprietary apps you’ve used from windows may not be available, but there equivalent ones would be available on linux.
    Stuff like browsing the web(provided that you don’t open too many tabs, because you have low ram) and watching movies n all is quite good.
    What all things fo you intend to do on it? I think it’ll be easier to check that the things you want are there.












  • genocide Uyghurs in china

    As a person who hasn’t really looked up the issue(I mean I have read about it on the net here n there, but have never dived into the issue deeply), I have seen people talking about it on both sides and I’m confused.
    The main things I’m hearing from people who say that a genocide isn’t happening are:

    • That it’s their suppression of religion expressions being public and that people are not being genocided, but public religious expression is not greatly provided by China. That it’s similar to the stereotypes created against muslims after events like the World trade centre attack and it’s being exaggerated as genocide.
    • That it’s just propaganda seen on English speaking forums to deface the other side and if an actual genocide was happening, the countries in Asia itself would be taking action and talking about it and currently only western countries who’re far away are talking about it the most. One side claims that it’s Western or Capitalist propagnada aimed to defame and the opposite side says that it’s Chinese or Communist propaganda aimed to whitewash.

    Most of the times I’ve seen it, both sides accuse each other of being blinded by propaganda and the convo devolves there.

    Which side is actually right here?
