A family member is overwhelmed with their Windows 11 computer. I'm far away but would like to help remotely if possible. Which tool would be best to log into their machine and help them out through the internet? Ideally I'd see their screen and take control when necessary.I know Teams can do that, but is there an open source equivalent?
[Edit] I'm on Linux, I don't run Windows 11.

It is not open source, but is easy and free to start using. I was able to remote into clients Windows computers from my Linux (Debian) computer and it worked pretty well.
If you do set up RustDesk, let us know how it worked for you. -

Pensa un fiume, denso e maestoso, che corre per miglia e miglia entro argini robusti, e tu sai dove sia il fiume, dove l’argine, dove la terra ferma. A un certo punto il fiume, per stanchezza, perché ha corso per troppo tempo e troppo spazio ... https://cctm.website/umberto-eco-italia-5/

Finally a smart fuzzy file picker for neovim.
FFF stands for freakin fast fuzzy file finder (pick 3) and it is an opinionated fuzzy file picker for neovim. Just for files, but we'll try to solve file picking completely.
It comes with a dedicated rust backend runtime that keep tracks of the file index, your file access and modifications, git status, and provides a comprehensive typo-resistant fuzzy search experience

Palantir fornisce tecnologie di sorveglianza a eserciti e servizi segreti in tutto il mondo. In Svizzera, tuttavia, le sue proposte sono state respinte sia dalle autorità governative che dall'esercito. Documenti interni ne hanno ora svelato il motivo.

I made it!!It was not even the save pod.
In the end I've smashed the corvette a bunch of times against some asteroids, then a few freighters came, I've shot at one and let the sentinels shoot me down.
I died, earned 1 point as pirate, but in the end I woke up back on the space station, outside that frigging corvette!!

Pity: in the new game I've started I've found two paradise planets in two systems, as soon as I've started. 😅
