You can install a flatpak plugin for the GNOME software center and use that to update everything. It does debs, snaps, firmware and flatpaks for me on my work laptop.

Wouldn't a high contrast dark theme do something like that?

I don't have any sources, just anecdotal evidence. I work in an IT department for a large company and we see components give up because the machine runs stressful tasks for long periods of time.

Interesting results...

I would not recommend you heat your room/house this way, as it takes a huge toll on the PC hardware. It's not really designed for creating heat, like the radioators are, so the components might "burn out" if stressed for long periods of time.

Forgot that distinction. Thanks for pointing it out to me.

Ah, my bad, forgot about the threads thing. :)

Matter sounds neat and all, but it's still wireless on the 2.4 GHz band, so it will still have the same amount of noise that Zigbee does.

How are you feeding this cat, while you are gone?

Get someone to take care of the cat while you are away. Either relatives, friends or some kennel/petcamp. You will feel better knowing the cat is in good hands if it's condition should worsen and the cat will feel safe.

I'm sure one of the self-hosted RSS servers can do what you need. Look up TinyRSS, FreshRSS and the like.

Just about any RSS feed reader...

I'm not a Kubuntu expert or even user, so I will just list op the general steps.

Boot into the live USB and unlock the encrypted drive. Make sure you have an internet connection too. Then chroot (change root) into the OS drive you decrypted and look at the logs from last update or even boot logs if posisble to determine what went wrong during the update. If possible fix the issue and complete a full update again (apt update & apt upgrade). Hopefully that should fix it.

Does your PC have any known hardware that requires proprietary drivers, like Nvidia or Broadcom?

They actually got a GTK3 based release out before GTK3 went EOL. Congratulations!

Can they update ti GTK4 based before that goes EOL? :D
