You wouldn't look at that article and come to the conclusion that "Harvard is standing up to the pro-Behavioral Science momentum", because fake research has always been against the rules.
Oh yeah, most people see AI as 'the thing that has made search completely unusable' and not 'The thing that has solved protein folding'.
It's like the Internet is full of cavemen who are screaming and throwing rocks at a fire while, elsewhere, others are building jet turbines and combustion engines.
The average anti-ai zealot only know about Diffusion and Large Language models because they once used ChatGPT for 15 minutes, read some memes and are now an expert on how AI is ruining society.
It's essentially a kernel with only open source code. OP would need to research all of the hardware in their machine to ensure that there are open source drivers. I think there are some laptop manufacturers that sell units which are compatible, if you're ordering from one of the major manufacturers then you'll likely have some hardware (like wifi) that requires proprietary binaries.
The hardest part is usually finding a machine that has open source drivers for every component. You may have to do some kernel compiling and other low level tasks to get your specific setup to work. OP says they're not a power user, but after this they will be
OLED black is so good, especially with HDR content.
Burn-in is what you constantly hear online but, anecdotally, I've had an OLED TV (LG C1) as my primary display for 3 years now and have never had anything more than some temporary image retention (which was fixed by running a pixel cleaning cycle) after leaving it on over the weekend with a paused movie on the screen.
Around '99 or '00. A friend of mine was gifted a Linux Magazine subscription and made me a copy of the CD. It was noteworthy at the time because it didn't have any copy protection and we were neck deep in piracy, keeping our friend group supplied with copies of games that we pulled off of IRC.
Getting a CD full of software that made no effort to prevent copying was intriguing enough that we sacrificed a spare machine one weekend (giving up the ability to play LAN StarCraft!) to see what another operating system looked like.
We tinkered on and off for a year, once we could get dual boot working (thanks to the IRC crowd) we used it a bit more often. Mostly ricing, though that wasn't a term at the time, and playing with the hacking tools (for educational purposes only, of course).
I think there was some copy protection mode that was annoying to write on Windows but trivially easy on Linux, which was the first time that I can remember where it was just better than Windows. That, and ARP poisoning our LAN parties to packet capture and read people's AIM and ICQ conversations because we were little shits.
If you're running a game and the game doesn't allow you to enable HDR, try adding DXVK_HDR=1 to your launch options. This will make the "DirectX" system tell the game that your system supports HDR.
This may not affect all games, but Helldivers 2 wouldn't allow me to enable HDR until I added the env.

This was caused by me using Proton10-1 (beta) instead of GE-Proton10-1.
I use protonup-rs to install GE-Proton. It downloaded the .tar.zst file but failed to extract it into compatibilitytools.d/. After manually installing GE-Proton10-1, I do not need DXVK_HDR=1 (as it is automatically set if you have PROTON_ENABLE_HDR=1 set).
Because the source code is copyrighted, the fact that userA has an email address userA@gmail.com isn't copyrighted and so companies can ingest that data into their databases.
We needed that when Snowden leaked, now the political will is gone and the average person just accepts it because they get free services in exchange for letting advertising companies and law enforcement live in their pocket.
If you're using proton, then you're not using the native linux clients you're using the Windows clients.
But, to answer your question, if you want to see if you're using HDR it will depend on the game. For a method that is game agnostic, install mangohud: https://github.com/flightlessmango/MangoHud which will let you see all kinds of information about the game that's running (often used for FPS/temps).
After step 3, use git apply to apply the patch files that you need from the links above. Here's a StackOverflow article that may help a bit, or use your favorite search engine (or LLM if you're feeling lucky) to help you.
If everything turns out ok and you have your tar.gz file, you can follow the manual installation instructions from the same readme in order to install it.
It's copying the artistic style of a popular 4chan artist. Those are generated jpeg artifacts, which are worse than the regular jpeg artifacts.
