I've never watched Stargate, except for the first film and a few random SG-1 episodes. I knew Sirtis was in it at some point, but not Picardo.
“You know, @hopesdead, has anyone told you you’re a real freakasaurus?”
In all seriousness, I always love a Star Trek episode/film involving a crew’s misadventures in the past (except the whole ENT space Nazi thing, which I have neither watched nor particularly want to watch).
Like, why the heck is Oracle still on this Earth? The only thing I can think of is MySQL, to which my response is, "Just use MariaDB."
To be fair to Phoronix, I hardly think they're the worst offender in Linux space; I find their Linux coverage to be the least terrible online. They cover new kernel and software developments pretty well.
Other Linux-focused sites seem to mostly consist of clickbait "Ditch Windows 11 headlines", fleeting Linux apps, explaining something that there are already vast amounts of quality articles for, and/or thinly-veiled advertisements.
That is not to say Phoronix is perfect; I don't necessarily enjoy having to run my ad blocker there. However, it's not like it's different on other sites. Comparatively, I find Phoronix to be a decent quality Linux outlet.
To be fair, it would be weird for Google NOT to support Linux, as I believe they use Debian Testing internally.
Personally, I find Debian pretty good these days. I used to default to Testing, but I've gravitated towards stable.
Honestly, in the age of Flatpak and Steam, almost any distro works.
Try seeing if your monitor has any weird power settings. I’d imagine it’s not a monitor problem, based on it turning back on after mouse movement, but perhaps it improperly responds to some message sent over the cable.
Speaking of that, what cable are you using? Is it HDMI or Displayport, and does the laptop have a full port or are you using a USB adapter?
That first part sounds like software/firmware stuff like mine, but the second part almost sounds like an antenna design issue.
Used to use Red Hat. This theme is for people who have nostalgia for back when Red Hat wasn’t a puppet of the blue monster - not the one that likes cookies.
Thunderbird’s not bad, but I usually use web stuff.
I have an existing iCloud e-mail that I haven’t had the time to switch off of. I then use G-Mail for school stuff - since I’ve signed away my soul to Google anyway, might as well use what they have to offer.
Maybe one day, I’ll start my own personal e-mail utopia, nut that day is not today.
Maybe Fedora?
Personally, though, I’m a Debian guy - Testing on my desktop and stable with Flatpaks and a few backports on my laptop.
