It's an NVIDIA specific term that is the abbreviation for GPU System Processor. It's a RISC-V core that does all sorts of management tasks on a modern Nvidia card, mostly related to task setup, resource allocation, context switching, adjusting clock speeds, etc.

I bought a used gen1 Thinkpad X1 Nano. It is super light (<1kg), works flawless out of the box with Linux, and while I think it does have a fan I've never noticed it.

Based on the neofetch it's a Samsung Fold Z 4

If that's your attitude, then I don't think this is going to work out.

Wine is not a company. People building and fixing Wine to support a specific piece of software are largely volunteers. Noone works at Wine. Noone does product support. It's a free service created by volunteers.

That's how most Linux software gets built. And none of these people owe you anything. No support, no easy to use config.

Frankly, you sound incredibly entitled and unwilling to listen and learn to everyone here who's tried to help you.

To answer your original question: there's no one global way to make Wine run all software out of the box. That's why Valve spends so much time tuning different setups of Wine for all the games they support. CodeWeavers to some extent does that for non game software.

Doing this for the wide variety of Windows software out there is an impossibly large task and frankly out of scope for what most Linux distributions have as a goal or intended use case. If you want to run Windows software on Linux, there are many different projects that try to package or help you install the most popular things. But other than that, you're free to try on your own.

To quote the author himself:

Great, do whatever you want. Just shut the fuck up about it, nobody cares.

But then he proceeds to do the exact opposite and posts a vitriolic rant about how everyone who doesn't use what they use is, in their words, and idiot.

I used them as well, and I know of at least 3 more coworkers who use them as well.

I got started when I got one for free with a used computer I bought. I've since then switch full time to using an MX Ergo (like OP) on my desktop, and a cheaper M575 I keep in my laptop bag.

I even game with them, and haven't touched a computer mouse in probably 2 years.

The MX Ergo is far superior to any other I've used, highly recommended.

Have you considered supporting Sixel for images?

How does Manjaro add incompetence? I've not used either for a while, buy Manjaro never failed me, while arch did manage to make my system nuke itself a couple times just running pacman -Syyu. Granted, this was a long time ago, but it's the only distro to so this to me ever.
