Well, in Sweden the party often chooses but you can also vote for a particular person if you’d like. It’s not mandatory though. This is for all levels, country wide, county and municipal.

Yhea, that’s my though. I wanna keep up to date and quite frequently change my system. I like having the reproducibility but feel like the immutable might get in the way. My servers though stay pretty static.

Yup, only reason I can’t move on is because of the AUR and the rolling release, though, having said that I’m thinking of trying NixOS but not quite sure it’s for me as it isn’t posix. It seems some software doesn’t really like that although I’ve heard it’s pretty awesome as a server OS.

Yup, all valid points which contributed to me either using ZigBee or designing my own things for WiFi.

The thing with wifi is that it drains a shit ton of energy. A WiFi temperature sensor might last a few weeks or months but ZigBee devices can last years. Of course this depends on what kind of batteries were talking about.

I’m not quite certain this will work because I’ve not used pop os in a while. Back then they used gnome so the toggle your talking about should be available via gsettings (cli). If you find the key you should be able to run a script every boot/login to disable it.

Not the easiest solution but maybe a solution.
