I'd really avoid Alienware at all costs. Their machines are super proprietary (meaning you can't upgrade/replace a lot of the components with off the shelf parts) and usually have really shitty airflow and cooling problems because of the inadequate cooling and horribly designed case they come in. I've directed a couple of friends to Build Redux, they'll build a machine for you for cost of parts + a $50 build fee + shipping and you can even save $150ish bucks by not having them install Windows for you so you can just install/pirate it yourself when you get it, experience was pretty good for both friends.

Ah, it's that time again, we're bringing SS7 and it's problems back into the spotlight baby! I don't have my fingers crossed that this will be solved anytime soon... I mean it's been in mainstream media every few years since like, what, 2006?

I've never used Bazzite personally, only seen a couple of videos about it and have some prior experience with messing around with Ublue images, so I can't really comment on Bazzite specifically . If their forums are active and friendly towards people with questions, I guess go for it!
Given that self-identified trans people tend to be more ostracized and are frequently autistic, its not really surprising trans people would typically end up in fields associated with socially-awkward introverts where remote work is more common.
Yep, this is basically my experience in a nutshell. When your computer becomes the place where you can be yourself without being completely ostracized, you tend to just find things to do with it.
I like Aldi, it's usually a bit cheaper compared to the other shops and they're usually a lot smaller and less crowded which is nice because I can actually go shopping at a normal time instead of having to wait as late as possible for the bigger stores to not be crowded so I don't sensory overload and implode.
Bazzite (and atomic/immutable distributions in general) are really neat, but I personally avoid recommending them to first time Linux users because if they end up searching for a solution to a problem they're having on the internet, the top solutions that pop up in their search engine most likely not going to be what they're looking for or even work. Explaining the concepts of an immutable distribution and things like rpm-ostree
to someone new to Linux can be quite the challenge and turn them off because of they'll most likely interpret it as unnecessary complexity to achieve a simple goal.
Yep, that's another great point. KDE Plasma isn't my cup of tea because it is in fact so similar to Windows, cluttered control panel and all! Though for someone coming from Windows who wants a very similar experience out of the box, it'd probably be great for them. Fedora even has a version that comes with KDE Plasma out of the box instead of GNOME.
Why are you all laughing about this? Lenin forced 962 million people to go to the fair and be happy. Think about that for a second. He forced them to go be happy and have fun. I don't know how you tankies can keep dismissing this when it's so clearly evident.
Probably ships with OpenSSL and/or OpenSSH. Buying a cheap CH341A programmer off of Aliexpress is a lot of fun because you can actually dump the firmware from like 95% of these things with a $5 tool and poke around/reverse engineer them and do some fun things with that knowledge.
