I really had a hard time with the chinese names, especially the ones that sounded similar.

parenting hypocrisy. people shouldn't need an offspring to have a working brain.

they will produce a red ring of death for pc then. cool.

Any modern Thinkpad will run any Linux distro easy, from bios updates up to gaming with Proton. Dell laptops also have a good linux support. Try to avoid laptops with Nvidia cards though, AMD driver installation is way easier if not completely invisible/painless.

If I may: a good name is good. a name that combines well with the surname is great. Think of Star Wars names: they are great because they mate good names and surnames. Han Solo Boba Fett Cassian Andor etc...

That said, my personal preference is something REALLY old, like Sargon, first ruler of Akkadian Empire, 2400BC. Bonus He/she/they could have also their own personal cuneiform name tattoo: 𒊬𒊒𒄀. Now tell me that's not cool.

good hunting.

The 4:3 factor is inviting, but the 3+ is so much better for me.

I went through plex and emby but i finally settled for jellyfin. It has just what i need, a pleasant and minimal interface and it has a light footprint on my rpi. plus is free so no plex premium bullshit stuff.

and they will be aaaall proprietary. one battery per phone model. and companies still will release updates that will cripple the phone every 2 years. nothing will change

Imho it's better to go to the root of the problem. F-droid. FOSS apps, no ads, no google.
