If there was any expectation for privacy (which you shouldn't have), it surely will be lost with this. Just wait to the GOP proposes universal internet ID's to use the internet
if the government will not hand me privacy, I will seize it for myself

I think 4K / 60 should be OK if your HDMI version supports it. My understanding is that the higher refresh rates in 2.1 wont work in Linux. There was a recent effort to fix it the consortium shot down.

Nah, this is just a basic Walmart HDMI cable from many years ago

it could even just be LG not playing nice with their TV software

So if you're going to build a HTPC or build a gaming PC and connect it to your TV, you may want to consider Windows for those reasons, though I think a Linux PC connected to the TV with DisplayPort and a DisplayPort to HDMI adapter will do high refresh rates just fine if memory serves.
I never could get connecting to my TV to look right

tried Xfce and KDE, Nvidia and AMD, X11 and Wayland, HDMI then tried a Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapter

nothing worked right, everything was either choppy, had screen tearing, or something was messed up with the resolution

so I just use Windows whenever I want to hook my laptop up to my TV

Ideally functions in a peer-to-peer manner such that the state of the forum and its messages live not on a server (which could prove to be a central point of failure in a number of ways), but rather on the local machines/clients of users, with updates synced through a gossip protocol which users could be encouraged to passively contribute to through an opt-in background daemon.
Call me crazy, but I don't really see what benefit this offers over just using a classic centralized forum paradigm (at least in something like CE's case where it's just one community as opposed to a decentralized Mastodon-like situation)

Is it like a super basic version or something? I don't know why anyone would pay for it if it's free. Mine was a little more complicated this year because I'm considered a business (lol) and I'd have to buy the $100 version of TT if I stuck with them. Then pay another $20 to e-file state.
I mean, I'm just some random person

If you're "considered a business", you're probably making too much to qualify for their free basic version

Every time I've used TurboTax, it was free

Back when there was the controversy about TurboTax hiding their "free file" option (and subsequently removed it), I tried FreeTaxUSA and they wanted to charge me $20

while ironically enough, TurboTax was/is still free for me

Can't speak for Bethesda games, but mod support for Linux can be weird

Like on Civilization V for example, a number of Windows-compatible mods just don't work specifically because Linux handles case-sensitivity in file names very differently
