Even in case that is true - 1000 uses is about a year at 3 brews a day and my french press is still going strong after 15 years and I fail to see a reason why it wouldn't hold up another 15 years. Do you have any sources on paper vs me

I think you are misunderstanding. In common Lisp you can call a regular function defined with defun as (foo "something"), but if bar is a variable containing a fuction you have to use (funcall bar " something"). I agree

If only you could see how entitled and childish you sound. But I agree: with that mentality, please stay away from any free (as in freedom) software. Please continue paying MS to deal with you and your attitude. Nobody cares if YOU use li

Thank you for the response. this helped me understand better how people come to conclusions like this. You want to be able to buy bleeding edge hardware without checking for driver support and have it just work. That is important enough for

I have 5.9 kernels running fine on two laptops with intel graphics. Have you investigated what exactly stopped your systems from booting?

Run a memtest86 and keep an eye on the temps during usage. This is not normal. Are you running nvidia drivers?

Can you give examples of what you disliked in each of KDE, GNOME and XFCE?

Installed from AUR with yay, but there is no difference in convenience, yay teams, select package, enter. I don't remember for Skype and zoom, but iirc teams uses the deb package from MS under the hood. The point is that the necessary

I think the trick with Fedora is to know the release-schedule, give them about two weeks after the release to find and fix the worst bugs and then not wait too long to update. On my own workstation I also didn't have issues.
