Yep this is exactly why I refuse to do the scan as you go, it ends up seriously frustrating. Self scan at checkout is fine if you don't have paracetamol or alcohol, otherwise you're waiting ages for assistance.

It's definitely an overall worse experience

Mullvad works fine on both LMDE and stock mint fwiw

Ubuntu is derived from Debian.

In linux there are 3 "popular" parent trees (plus a couple more obscure ones)

Debian tree, RedHat tree and Arch tree.

Debian is "parent" to Ubuntu is parent to Mint (standard versions)

LMDE applies Cinnamon and Mint tools to Debian.

I would have thought finding Hitler unlikeable would be a positive attribute ? Was that a typo ?

Orwell was a socialist so making lists of leftists seems surprising; are you sure this wasn't an ideological tankies vs socialists or marxists vs trotskyists ?

Think Gaetz & Marjorie Taylor Greene. That's pretty much our entire government now all the sensible people have been drummed out.

Don't let logic or facts get in the way of a good grandstanding.

They didnt know it wasn't going to work because they refuaed to listen to anyone trying to tell them it wouldn't work

As no seems to have answered this, the EU's political structure is more resistant to the anti-consumer desires of large corporates, particularly as the ones impacted aren't European.

Culturally the EU is diverse but broadly there is a lot more interest in / support for nurturing the common good (as opposed to beggar thy neighbour policies of the GOP). In particular pro-consumer policies are popular and get politicians re-elected, which segues to the next difference

The EU is less influenced (not zero, less) by political donations from large corporates than the US. Very little of the priorities of the average person makes it into law in the US, a slightly larger sliver gets through in the EU.

All of the ICE have this too. It's not just EVs.

It's a library file something to do with 32bit support iirc.

Can't recall anymore than that but either here or reddit had details

Mint defaults to LTS. You can install the latest kernel through the upgrade manager

You can install the 6.2 kernel on mint through the upgrade manager gui. It's just a couple of clicks.

On the other hand Mint has a reputation for "just works" because the defaults are indeed LTS
