It is a very nice client, I used it for nine months but had to drop it once my boss decided to use Matrix for calls as well. Unfortunately, gomuks does not even signal calls, so I wouldn't be able to just switch to a different client and join the call from there. Besides that, this client is really great!

It is only important when you want to connect displays to the dock, if that is not your use case, any travel dock for 40 bucks will do :)
Ah, that are very good base conditions! I feel you; just started riding last year after having my license for more than 10 years (but always lacked the money to buy a bike) and since then, put nearly 20,000km on the bike. It's just amazing but I'm very glad that I already have all this experience from a decade of driving a car and the lack of "urge to take risks". Taking the bike everywhere and it is quite baffling how people sometimes look you straight in the eye and take your right of way, especially in residential areas.
Either only brakes or both. The reason is not really a technical one but rather a safety one: due to the different engine size/power to weight ratio, the engine brake slows you down much quicker that in a car. Combine that with a very small profile from behind and you are basically a huge surprise for the person behind you when you slow down that quickly without the brake light as an indicator; perfect recipe for disaster.
Always use your brakes when slowing down. Good practice is to slightly press the rear brake (foot) when you decelerate so the light goes on, but for now just always use the brake for everything.
Also, especially as a new rider, keep proper distance to the car in front of you. Stay safe and have fun!
Main reasons I see being raised a lot are Canonical's absolute control over the snap ecosystem and the dependency problem inside the snaps, meaning they often ship outdated versions of dependencies which might have known bugs or flaws.
The fact that it is forced on users is mentioned by other people here already. Afaik this is not a thing yet on Ubuntu server, so maybe install that one + the GUI packages? Not an Ubuntu user myself, so this could be oversimplified.
Business devices from HP (Eliebook). Having mine since 2018, runs like a charm
The problem is usually in the broadness of the definition. Less democratic regimes can easily use this to forbid material about opposing views and parties. Double-edged sword.
You are totally right to be confused, the USB naming is a total mess. A quick Google search told me that your two ports are Thunderbolt4, another thing to mix in. TB4 to my knowledge integrates USB4, so you can basically connect anything that is USB2,3,4 or Thunderbolt3 or 4. Luckily, none if that matters for your use case, pretty much all proper docking stations support charging (usually the functionality is listed explicitly on the docking station description), so you can probably choose almost any. If you go with one of the big laptop manufacturer's product (Dell, HP) it is pretty much guaranteed to work. Personally, I use HP's Thunderbolt 3 dock for my gf and HP's universal Thunderbolt Dock for myself across my work and private devices. Even works on my android phone!
Just confirming this being a thing; had to battle the same crap recently at work trying to install Ubuntu server onto Dell Optiplex's... also make sure SATA is set to AHCI and not RAID, as well as the boot options that someone already pointed out in another comment.
Except for blockchain as a technology, I agree with you; decentralization and thus democratization of all these things would be best!
Holy fucking shit dude... Sorry for you but in a weird way I'm a bit relieved to see this being the case in the US as well. The village I grew up in (Germany) still has a price of ~50€ for speeds of 50-100MBit/s However, there is at least no data cap in that case. My 1000 Mbit/s contract was capped to 1TB/month as well until four years ago (40€/month). I really hope this improves for all of us soon!
While I see where you are coming from, I don't think this is a pattern of thinking that applies only (or primarily) to right wingers but rather to political radicals of all sorts. We see similar bullshit coming from the far left with "all straight white males are oppressors" and similar statements. Might also be a result of social media echo chambers, who knows...
