It's in english for me (hah! jk) Dunno about it's origins. I just installed the flatpack.

I've got a bunch of old dvds and bluerays I'm ripping to my NAS. Automatic Ripping Machine works great... when it works. I've given up and now I'm using VLC.

Ventoy? Linux live iso files aren't too big less than 5Gb each. You could toss on a handful of utilities like memcheck, clonezilla, and a hdd eraser. Then a few isos of distros you want to try. Adding and removing isos is a breeze with ventoy.

My next tv is probably going to be a dumb tv. You can search for commercial business tvs online and find dumb tvs for displays and digital signage. Same screen, just no smarts, plays a network stream, off a usb, or hdmi input. Nothing else.

I recently began hating devices and how each distro does it slightly differently. /dev is the worst. I plug in a usb, look for it under /dev/usb, not there, oh it's /dev/serial I suppose that makes sense. Plug in a different usb, not in either, no by-path or by-id, oh, I can only find it by the bus... but that path changes each time I plug it in, and that's the only place I can find it. Permissions are black magic on devices. I've been root and can't open a cdrom, get permission denied. Other times I can give a user 777 and it seems like they have it all, but still can't open that drive. Everytime I reboot my coral usb changes bus paths and breaks my frigate docker, but I can't find any stable path to it. Fought for days trying to get proxmox to forward a cdrom drive to a container then a vm. Went through half a dozen tutorials and threads of people getting it working and I couldn't. Spin up my laptop and do it bare metal, and STILL can't get it to work. VLC can play the disk just fine, but not the docker container. Switch to ubuntu instead of my arch distro, and boom everything works.... most of the time. Other times I have to do a ritual of removing the database, logs, reboot, start the container, unplug usb, plug in usb, and then it works.

Have you tried OnlyOffice?

Ugh, how could I forget?

I want to see a seamless roaming standard so a grandma can buy a random brand's wifi extender, plug it in, connect it to her ISP router's wifi and have the same ssid through the house. No needing to jump to NANA-SWIFI-EXT.

I would happily dedicate a corner of my garage for a big sodium ion battery.

Also, fun fact they can charge and discharge faster than lithium ion. Also, their chemistry doesn't lead to spontaneous combustion. Perfect for a house backup.

Plenty of these games are awesome and not NSFW. Diablo 1, warcraft 1 & 2, several ultima games, elder scrolls 2 & arena, styx, etc.

Solid state batteries, hopefully soon we will have electric breaks. I hear it's a challenge, which is why it hasn't happened yet. But my ignorant self feels that a well shielded wire will hold up better to wear and tear than a pressurised hydraulic hose. Radiators are still a thing, but smaller. Maybe they'll come up with a pure air-cooled system, or use a heat pump and dump the heat either in the cabin or off the battery/motor.

I think it's possible to eventually get rid of all the fluids except for the housing/lube around moving parts like the u-joint. But then again maybe those in-wheel electric motors don't need u-joints?

I'd also like the electrical and a/c to run off the main battery not the 12v car battery left over from ice.

Power Steering fluid is phasing out too. I'm hoping EVs eventually get rid of as many fluids as possible.
