Rocky linux is definitely for desktop too. It was designed as a successor of Centos, which was widely used in medium and big companies. We currently use Rocky 8 where I work. It works fine.

I have two kids and use a bike (for ecological reasons). I realize I’m incredibly lucky my area has very good and safe biking infrastructure. Had to upgrade to a electric cargo bike when the second one came about, but I don’t regret at all, it’s more’confortable and safer for the kids. I do own an old ICE car, which I considered replacing with a new EV, but since I drive maybe a few hundreds of kilometers per year, I figured it’d make more sense to keep the old diesel than to replace it.

I don’t know where you live, but here the government doesn’t give a shit about eco-social organizations until they start to destroy costly things.

IMHO one of the main issue is the lack of integrated booking platform for trains. Especially for international routes. It is very easy to plan a travel by planes, because there is an interoperable platform across all companies and booking agents. For trains, this does not exist, and it prevent the fair and free competition between operators, which would probably reduce the prices overall.

I considered it seriously even though I am fertile. The process is so complex, long and uncertain in my country (western Europe) that we chose to make new ones. Still considering to adopt when we get a bit older.
