That's such a weird comment considering gnome has been the on the forefront of wayland's implementation from the get-go and KDE's is still experimental.

Using wine can be a bit troublesome especially if you're new to linux. For example wine doesn't come with dxvk which is basically mandatory for playing games nowadays.
Most people use another program to deal with wine, like lutris, bottles, or steam with the built in proton.

X11 does not support different refresh rates across monitors.
You need a Wayland capable DE for that. The big one is Gnome.

That's redefining what physical media is. It's used to contrast digital media, like hard drives.
These headlines want you to buy dvds/blurays. Which they specifically tell you to do at the end of the article.

Are you just typing random letters? Terminal commands are basically programs, like word. There's thousands of them, just like there's thousands of programs on windows. And yeah, these programs, or terminal commands can get quirky, but they are also very powerful.

Luckily for you, modern distributions work perfectly fine without ever touching the terminal, so you should be fine if you prefer gui programs.

I'm not a fan of the cult-like community. I'd rather not my distro hang on to the good will of one single person.
It's probably the best option for gaming though if you're not willing to dip into the AUR.

They've been switching all their software to subscription based, it's coming for windows too, it's less a question of if but rather of when. I'm sure there'll be a "free" edition though, with more ads and whatever else they can think of. Enshittification doesn't stop.

This isn't about every website tracking you regardless. Chrome kept logging browsing information even in incognito mode.

AI is perfectly capable of mastering something by itself. Whether it's chess, or playing an instrument.
AI just has no inherent notion of what is "good art", because that is a human concept that has no set in stone meaning. The reason AI is trained against our tastes is so that it can produce content that appeals to us.

Because it hasn't stopped working yet.
