I use Ubuntu at work. No issues with it.

Keychron makes keyboards in a variety of sizes, and most you can configure with different types of switches. They're priced well, too. I'd start there.

I bought some of the Star Trek branded wines a few years back. They were unremarkable.

I find it difficult to believe that breaking down steel to be 3d printed into large structures for a bridge is faster or more energy efficient than casting the parts instead.

I started playing through Skyrim again last year, but didn't get very far before I lost interest.

I jump back in to left4dead every year or two. The original is probably my favorite shooter. I haven't found Back4Blood as compelling.

Why is half this article about population decline? The writing also seems weird in places. AI generated, maybe?

I played Tetris for the first time on my friend's Gameboy back in the 90's. I didn't get addicted at the time and I'm still not, but I do play Tetris 99 on my switch occasionally.

Overall, it's an amazing game. It can be learned in minutes but takes years to master.

"why" is a perfectly valid question to ask

That's not the point though. The point is that the human comedian and the AI both benefit from consuming creative works covered by copyright.

Further what do you think I meant with high end premium?

The base model X costs twice the base model Y. I'd consider the X expensive. I wouldn't put the Y in the same category.

I just picked up Again the Storm a few days ago and have been enjoying that. I like that the settlement building isn't drawn out like other strategy games, and I don't really feel bad about it when I lose since I can still earn perks and bonuses that persist throughout the campaign.

GOTY for me is definitely Balder's Gate 3. Enjoyed it start to finish, and there was enough content that my second playthrough didn't feel like a rehash of the first.

I wouldn't consider the Tesla model Y a high end premium vehicle. It was the best selling vehicle in the world earlier this year, in spite of the higher price than gas-powered competitors:
