Honestly, I'd go with ubuntu, just because lots of llm tools work with it, and because it has good support for dgpus. I personally use debian, but for your case, i'd go with ubuntu.

Carnivorous Squirrels Documented in California
A ground squirrel with cheeks stuffed with nuts, seeds or grains, is a common sight. But a new study provides the first evidence that California ground squirrels also hunt, kill and eat voles. The study, led by the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire and the University of California, Davis, is the first to chronicle widespread carnivorous behavior among squirrels.

Right! But, if you zoom out, it's not exactly too wild. Ground squirrels have voles beat in size and they have habitat overlap with both living underground. Additionally, dietary shifts give animals the flexibly to respond to changes in the environment plus foraging risks and opportunities. It's been known since the early 2000's that squirrels can supplement some of their diet with insects or bird eggs/baby birds. Knowing this, it starts to make a lot more sense ground squirrels would hunt voles, as the environment is rapidly changing, they're known to already hunt a bit, and voles could be their annoying neighbor.

I still prefer OsmAnd, far more feature, and at least you can ask it to avoid a specific road. Organic Map cannot.
in reply to Dremor
I use both. Osmand+ allows me to contribute way more efficiently with PDIs and GPS traces as well as editing existing features, but when I want to navigate, I prefer Organic Maps. I also like more their rendering since it's faster across all my devices. They are both useful apps. My main gripe is with the data in my area, as everyone uses Google or Apple's data we struggle with contributors.
in reply to qaz
it is good, it's just a bit of a power user program. It's my daily driver since i actually want all that information, organic maps just looks like a child's toy to me.
