  There’s a 3rd scenario which is not having the ability to detect when you are expected to lie to be nice.

  Zorin OS is geared towards people coming frim Windows or Mac wanting to maintain UI similarity. They have a “paid” version where you get tech support help installing, but I’m sure the community here would be happy to help walk you through it.

  If you come from Windows or Mac and want to keep similar UI familiarity and ease of use then ZorinOS is pretty good. A friend of mine migrated away from Windows and installed Zorin OS core, choosing nvidia drivers during installation. They are very pleased with the experience so far.

  1. Copy files to keep to cloud or other machine.
  2. Prep usb drive with favorite OS installer (zorin, pop, mint, bazzite, fedora, nix, etc)
  3. Boot into usb drive and wipe hard drive to put linux on it.
  4. Copy desired files back onto your linux machine

  Given that this person’s boss wants them to dump company data into Claude, I see no functional difference.

  The trick is to tell them you’ve been using it more than they have and that it’s not as good as chatGPT for task A, but that for task B claude does okay 25% of the time so we’ll need to 4x the timeline in order to get a good claude output based on that expected value.

  But not as good as your personal local LLM that you’ve been training on company data. No one else can use it because it’s illegal to clone. (your personal local LLM is your brain)
