we don’t seem to encounter any in our universe as we know it
What the fuck are you talking about? Genetic mutations causing horrible lifelong mentally and physically painful issues for people sounds like a bug in DNA metabolics to me. And what about black holes? Gravity wells getting so massive it bugs out because the universe has no idea what to do and thinks it is a simultaneous implosion and explosion forever until someone observes beyond the event horizon.
Gnome has been the only stable DE I've used in the last 20 years.
Always loved the customization options of KDE and would love spending hours tinkering to get everything perfect. Now I'm old and don't have time for that bullshit anymore.
I just recently tried a few different DEs on an old Chromebook (i use Arch btw) and everything crashed after a few hours due to RAM limits, but Gnome kept chugging along on this piece of shit device and is now my daily driver.
