I haven't tried Element X, but I'd like to recommend SchildiChat as a good matrix client for desktop and mobile. My understanding is it's a fork of element, but it works much better and more reliably in my experience. Element was very inconsistent about fetching messages for example.

To be fair, those are both issues with flatpak too. You can change the file system permissions with a command or flatseal, but I don't know of a fix for the password extension issue.
I had a 3-4 year old gaming laptop, and a mandatory windows update would corrupt the hard drive forcing a fresh install. I say mandatory because it installed no matter what I tried. Disabling updates in settings and registry never would prevent this update from wrecking my computer. I could get a few days to a week of use and then it would crash and require a fresh install.
I installed Ubuntu to see if it was a hardware issue, and it ran great. Years later when I finally got another computer I tried windows again, but quickly realized how many things I hated about windows. I deleted my windows partition and have never looked back since.
My first thought with this meme was chronic distrohopping. Do I tell them what I'm using this week? Or the last distro I used for any amount of time? Do I tell them the obscure distro name or the name of the major distro it's forked off of? If I'm dual booting do I tell them the experimental OS I'm daily driving or the reliable fallback I have on my other partition?
This is the what I did. My wife still uses windows so I configured the mouse on her computer, saved the configuration, and have it working smoothly on my PC.
While it was easy to set it up this way, I really don't like the idea of needing windows to configure my mouse though. I really wish logitech would start offering official Linux support.
Halo 1 is the most buggy of all the Halo MCC games unfortunately.
I know that disabling the enhanced graphics for it improves performance/bugs a lot for that specific game in the package.
Yeah, same thing that has happened in several other countries. Google is supposed to pay companies to advertise their news stories through search results, and google refuses to do that meaning they have to block news websites in that country.
Pretty useful, definitely going to save this.
My home IP almost never changes, so I'd hate to pay for a static IP.
Original stable diffusion wasn't trained by individuals, but clearly the current progression of the software is largely community driven. All sorts of new tech and add-ons for it, huge volumes of community trained checkpoints and Lora's, and of course the interfaces themselves like automatic1111 and vladmatic.
And it's something you can run yourself offline with a halfway decent graphics card.
So it was a real article, but after criticism UN deleted it and claimed it was a poor attempt at satire.
However the writer of the article said it wasn't satire, but was rather meant to be provocative by showing how many corporations benefit from world hunger.
This is all fair complaints about Linux, but I don't really feel like windows is much better. I've had windows break on me or family members a lot over the years. Sure I've had some Linux distros break with an update and fail to boot (namely Manjaro), but windows has broken itself with updates dozens of times for me. The whole reason I started using Linux at all was because windows was breaking so often on my computer that I needed to try Linux to make sure my hardware wasn't defective.
You talk about having to fall back on the command line in Linux, but that's also true on windows without 3rd party software. I've had to use windows command line utilities to fix drives with messed up partitions and to try to repair my windows install after windows update broke it. A couple weeks ago I had to help a friend on windows do checksums using the windows command line because windows doesn't support that through the gui. Meanwhile dolphin on KDE let's you do checksums in the gui from the file properties screen.
I honestly feel like Linux isn't really that much harder or more prone to breaking than windows, people just have less experience with it. The smaller user base means there's a lot less help available online as well.
