My strategy is to add updates to an hourly cronjob, and curse profusely when it downloads a bad update.

Its showing a negative amount, for starters.

Ubuntu the last day I have no one had to manage little thing

Because we have this stupid thing called the electoral college. Basically, each state has a certain number of votes, based (roughly) on population (its a whole other issue), and the states’ votes are cast for whoever won the most votes within their state (barring rogue electors and the few states that use proportional representation for votes.) Theres a total of 538 votes, and all that matters is winning more than half of them. This has made the winner of the popular vote lose the election 5 times (though in 1824, it went to the house of representatives for a final decision because no one had a majority.)

To summarize: not a dumb question, VERY dumb answer.

Nexus is running Linux tests for their new mod manager RIGHT NOW. I believe its still limited to Stardew Valley for now while in alpha, but they’re making strides here! https://nexus-mods.github.io/NexusMods.App/users/GettingStarted/

I respond to your estimates with the customary xkcd

On Kubuntu right now, but planning to switch to NixOS when I get a new laptop

If I played Stardew I’d be all over this. Alas, I am not a farmer.
