Centralising around Flathub seems to me like it defeats the point of flatpak being able to have multiple repositories.

Looks like it's a fork of Puppet.

I've done this before by packaging it in a snap. No filesystem access except its own snap directory, no network access because I didn't request it in the snapcraft.yaml, but yes GPU and audio access through the desktop plug.

I would also be interested in a defence of capitalism that doesn't come down to "but the USSR" or similar.

Many electron apps will break because they install some executables into ~/. config

So double win!

Depends on the use case. Definitely for my laptop though. In fact the decryption keys only exist in two places:

  1. Inside my TPM
  2. In a safe deposit box at a bank.

You can run 5g on unlicensed spectrum too, and there are fully open source 5g stacks. The primary issue there is that most phones don't have the hardware to connect to those networks. But the same is true right now of wifi on 900 MHz.

"Because I can" is a perfectly viable reason. Messing around and doing ridiculous things is one of the best ways to learn.

Fewer steps than yours, but I'll claim this as a win in the "purity" field where you have to stop at the first layer where you can run a Windows app.

Linux on a RISC-V device -> container -> qemu-user + binfmt -> x86 VM software -> FreeBSD -> Linux binary compatibility -> Wine -> Windows app

Some people use plasma because they like how configurable it is. I do like that, but I'm also drawn to it because of its great defaults.

The main ways I change it are setting my background (on my work activity I have it selecting from various company related backgrounds while on my personal activity it uses a selection of my favourites of my own photos) and adjusting the bottom panel.
