Another mild example is that windows cannot be raised except by the user or by launching them. This is supposed to be a mild security precaution so a program can't pop up a legitimate looking dialog over another application and trick the user. Realistically it means that applications can't open and focus URL in your web or file browser. Instead they have to give you a notification telling you "Firefox is Ready" and make you do it manually.
I would like them to keep that behaviour. At least make it an option or allow whitelisting certain applications. Nothing I hate more in an OS than windows stealing focus without asking.
Me being super jealous of everyone here going to 144 or 165 when I just upgraded my pc a few months ago to finally use 120 on my current ultrawide monitor.
No need to be jealous, the gain from 120 to 144/165 is significantly less than from 60 to 120.
60 to 120 is like a night and day difference, even for desktop usage.
Besides the glaring bugs that shouldn't have been there at release, I was disappointed that barely anything changed from the first game. Unfortunately the gameplay loop is not engaging enough to warrant releasing the same game twice.
I really liked the way they handled the health system where you first have to hit them with a regular attack to open up wounds and then remove their health by doing a claw attack.
Anyone who want a simple Virtual Machine and have to go thought cumbersome installation procedures like this one just to reach the end and have error messages saying virtualization isn’t enable when, in fact, it is… or trying to use GNOME Boxes and have a sub-par virtualization experience.
MS Office I get, it's not replacable for power users. Virtualization though? That's one of Linux's strengths.
Your issue lies with trying to use VirtualBox, by far one of the worst virtualization solutions (both on Windows and Linux). Linux has QEMU and LXC, two of the most mature virtualization/containerization technologies, use them. If you need a UI for it you can use virt-manager (or "Virtual Machine Manager"), it uses QEMU as backend.
As for GNOME Boxes, everything in the GNOME ecosystem is made to be trivially easy. As such it lacks essential features for power users. In general, if you need avanced features, KDE might be better for you.
Even finding a decent and working FTP/SFTP/FTPS desktop client (similar WinSCP or Cyberduck) is an impossible task as there a few, but they all fail even at basic stuff like dragging and dropping a file.
As @Zamundaaa@discuss.tchncs.de mentioned, both Dolphin and Nautilus have integrated SFTP/FTP support, you literally just type sftp://host.example.org into your title bar and you are there. It will even use your existing SSH keys out of the box.
If you need a dedicated UI, you can also use FileZilla. It's included in most repos and I haven't really found anything it can't do that WinSCP can. However, I would really recommend looking into how to do this via Dolphin/Nautilus. There's no level of integration any application can achieve that works as well as being integrated directly into the file browser. If Nautilus is too simple for you (it was for me), Dolphin works on GNOME as well.
I think a lot of your issues stem from being used to do something on Windows and trying to reproduce the same workflow on Linux. That will sometimes work but some workflows have simply developed differently on Linux and if you don't try to accomodate them you will just bang your head against the wall for nothing. If you find there's a lack of development for tools on Linux, the most likely reason is simply because nobody is doing it like that.
Linux desktop is not perfect but it's in a very good state nowadays and quickly improving with every update. It's in a state that makes it better for my use cases than Windows, which is going backwards with every version.
Is the config not being in YAML really such a huge issue? The heart of HA, the automations, can still be written in YAML and have just gotten more powerful since then by adding blueprints and even Python support via AppDaemon.
Is there anything else that might indicate the domain name in the handshake connection?
The SNI (Server Name Indication) happens before any HTTP communication and is done in plain text. It is needed because a single web server might host multiple websites, since each of them has their own certificate it needs to know which one to serve you.
With the new proposal that SNI is now encrypted. It makes the difference between anyone listening in being able to tell "you visited lemmy.world" and "you visited something behind Cloudflare".
I never played the original but I really enjoyed the remake. The art style is beautiful and the gameplay holds up well. The only thing I didn't like were the hacking sequences, they look nice but are overall pretty boring.
As a fan of Prey and immersive sims you can really see the inspiration Prey took from System Shock at every corner. I still prefer Prey but System Shock is a lot of fun as well and it's cool to see where many of the ideas came from.

The kind of person that wants to play Elden Ring on the go but can't because the input lag is too damn high.
