First state visit, not first visit. A state visit is something particular with all the honours and the like.

Some people did, look up the Peer Community Journal. Backed up by more and more organisations.

Not particularly security savvy, but :

The infected devices then attempt to crack the telnet password by guessing default and commonly used credential pairs.

My understanding is that the worm is targetting connected devices with supidly simple credentials, which is why "Internet-of-Things" is mentioned?

I raise to you the current version of openSUSE Tumbleweed: 20240108! I think we've got the winner...

What the...

OK. First, nobody "previously thought" that evolution happens at random... Parts of it, yes, sure, like mutations or genetic drift. But selection is not "at random" in any reasonable meaning of the word.

Second, the paper results are basically about how selections shapes the co-occurring of genes within a genome, in the context of e.g. gene transfer. Interesting, yes. Revolutionary, certainly not. Most biologists would have predicted that outcome... Of course, selection is going to constrain the co-occuring of some gene families, why would this be surprising?

Anyway, look into the study, it looks interesting but you can spare reading the article, it does a very bad job (sorry OP) at placing the idea in its scientific context and the authors are not helping with their bragging about "revolutionary" discovery.

Never mind, you need to click on "Filter", select a particular filter and then input your search keywords. Not super intuitive, but it does work.

OK, so it is trademarked and the company is using it illegally (not that I believe KDE e.V. should sue, probably a waste of time and money).

If you don't have multiple email accounts, then probably a webmail is fine. If you have multiple accounts, and require some advanced email features, then a local client is often more efficient. Unfortunately, because the majority of people are fine with a webmail, those clients are not attracting much activity for development and Thunderbird itself almost died some ten years ago.

Great news regarding the reorganisation of System Settings. I am skeptical about the sorting however? Why put "Internet" first and "Appearance" so low? Seems to me the later is often the first thing people look for in Settings (and thus often first, or near the top, in most settings).

It highly depends on the field and journals. In my field, most society-run journals are without fees unless you want Open Access.

If memory serves, "courriel" was actually French Canadian (and I actually find it a smart translation). The Académie Française suggested "mél" at the time, which means even less of a thing and only sounds roughly close to "mail".

It may feels that way to you, but KDE, and especially Plasma (since Plasma 5) has been designed by professional designers. We owe this notably to Jens Reuterberg who created the Visual Design Group within KDE, a group that is still very much alive. The feeling probably rather stems from the fact that KDE's vision for design is less inclined toward a strongly polished, opinionated interface, but rather to preserve user's choice?
