Probably not while ARM handhelds are so popular. I think that it's a good choice for intel and AMD for now, though.
It inspired me to move on. I'm running OpenSUSE now. I don't really want to be involved in RedHat-related products in any way. Between redhat and the talk of telemetry, I'm out.

Brotato 20% $3.99

Brotato is a top-down arena shooter roguelite where you play a potato wielding up to 6 weapons at a time to fight off hordes of aliens. Choose from a variety of traits and items to create unique builds and survive until help arrives.

I've finally got my first stock with my employers through their discount purchase plan. Does anyone have anecdotes or interesting math on when to sell?
