Can the term potency also be used to refer to the exponent in English? Because that is what is meant by the terms in the other languages and I haven't come across that usage of the word potency in English

If you read the article you find that he didn't actually sell furniture, he got people on Facebook marketplace to pay him money for the privilege of collecting free furniture from Craigslist. It's a really shitty scheme

I used to think like you but have been using endeavouros for the last 2 years or so and never felt like I an lacking stability.

Raspberry pies are more powerful than you give them credit here. Nothing wrong with using systemd on them

Oh yeah their efforts are definitely a huge net benefit for the Linux community, I just don't like seeing big companies portrayed in a better light than they deserve. When it comes down to it, what valve really cares about is still their bottom line.

Proton is based on wine, which is copyleft so valve didn't exactly have a choice in keeping it open source. I also don't necessarily think that their goal was to reach the rather small existing user base of Linux users, but rather they wanted to make sure they aren't at the will of a bigger company (Microsoft) whose product is/was required to run most of what valve makes money with.

I have switched from manjaro to endeavouros about a month ago. I definitely prefer endeavouros. However, the kernel install GUI in manjaro was nice, made it very easy to get an overview of the available kernels and which ones are still getting support.

And it does judder free 24 fps playback on a 60hz screen?

Edit: also, what model is it? The Galaxy Tab S5e?

I really want an android tablet with lineageos support for watching movies and browsing the web. But I have been spoiled by my OLED TV so I think LCD just won't cut it. Also, I would ideally want a 120hz display so that movies can be played back without 3:2 pulldown. I don't believe such a device exists ATM?
