Stuff can work, but it also cannot work. It really comes down to the exact hardware combination and the games you are running and often even plain luck.
And if you are in the "It doesn't work" camp, then you are screwed without serious skill.
Gaming on Linux is kind of like relationships. If you are one of the lucky ones where it works without effort, be grateful and don't go around telling everyone who has problems that it's super easy. Because it's more luck than skill and your experience might not fit the experience that others have.
On the one hand you are right, on the other hand, especially paleontology is basing their facts on very, very shaky evidence and a massive amount of extrapolation.
So I assume that it’s wrong until undeniably proven otherwise by the scientific method.
So you assume everything is wrong? Because in fact, that's not how the scientific method works at all.
Outside of the very few fields that are pure and untouched by reality, like e.g. maths, there are no proofs, and certainly no undeniable proofs in science. Everything is "just" a theory and is used until proven wrong or otherwise refined. Usually a theory with a decent amount of evidence, but nothing is proven beyond deniability in science. That's religion you are thinking about.
There's the regular wireless charging where you need to put the phone on exactly the right position. That one is totally useless, since it's even less flexible than cable charging. The only upside is that you don't need to physically insert the cable. That's pretty much worthless.
There's another setup that allows you to charge over a larger area, e.g. a whole desk. That is expensive and/or much work, since it needs to be integrated into the whole area (e.g. desk) and it's incredibly wasteful in terms of energy consumption that doesn't actually end up charging the phone.
The only real upside I can see of wireless charging is that you can use it if your USB C port is worn out and doesn't work any more.
"No? Oh well, I didn't want her anyway, she'll just cause trouble along the way. But that way I can trick the boy into thinking I did everything I could."
There are some companies as bad as Apple (John Deere comes to mind), but it's certainly not the norm.
User-replacable standard m.2 SSDs are bog standard and non-standard formats are really rare. Apart from Apple I can not think of many companies that do that. IIRC Red Magic cameras, and Synology NAS but that's the only ones I can think of.
GrapheneOS without any invasive apps is really bare-bones and limited, that's what I wanted to say using hyperbole, but I guess figures of speech are too advanced for some people.
That's my issue with AI. I go to AI after my skills, the documentation and google failed me. Then I go to ChatGPT to get lied to, because ChatGPT doesn't know either.
And almost without fail, AI doesn't help me there.
The only thing where AI helps is AI autocomplete in die IDE, if I am doing something very simple and monotonous, then it helps me to sometimes reduce my typing speed a little bit compared to regular autocomplete.
But typing time is like 0.5% of the time I spend developing stuff.
Inflation went up due to the knock-on effects of the sanctions. Specifically prices for oil and gas skyrocketed.
And since everything runs on oil and gas, all prices skyrocketed.
Covid stimulus packages had nothing to do with that, especially in 2023, 2024 and 2025, when there were no COVID stimulus packages, yet the inflation was much higher than at any time during COVID.
Surely it is not too much to ask that people remember what year stuff happened in, especially if we are talking about things that happened just 2 years ago.
