It is explained in the article though...

So he proved his point, didn't he...

I realized that, but given the level of optical customization and the praise the game received for its RPG component I had hoped I could play outside the existing character limits...

The new font looks fantastic!

You know you're allowed (some might even say supposed) to have different keys for different machines. They're basically free to generate and take up to no space.

Good news: The gauge card is a standard component.

You are right. I misinterpreted the information on wiki page. Debian 8's free LTS tier ended 2020 and the Extended LTS continues until 2025. Extended support is a paid service though and costs a lot more than a single Windows license. Microsoft offers a similar (also paid) service.

I like the low battery panel. I might copy that. I have a general overview over all batteries, but it didn't occur to me that I could filter the values and show only the ones needing replacement.

My default dashboard is maybe a little bit unusual:

Default Dashboard with blood glucose levels

It's the blood glucose levels of my daughter (and mine in the next tab) as we are both T1 diabetics. The levels are transmitted via a tool called Nightscout and then shared with Home Assistant. This allows my wife and myself to get notified via light signals at night (in addition to the alarm her blood glucose sensor sounds). The dashboard also contains average levels for several timespans as well as an estimated long time level (Hb1Ac).

The second dashboard is an overview of all the lights, sensors and appliances located on a floorplan of the house:

There are several tabs grouping lights (and appliances), sensor readings and battery levels.

They did provide security updates for several years longer than any competitor. Even (or especially depending on your point of view) for a company like Microsoft a user shouldn't expect updates indefinitely at least not for the normal retail price.

And to be clear: I also don't want to blame any of the named Linux distros. I recently migrated an old CentOS 6 server and it was about time. Sure there were still some security updates but several software components hadn't received updates for years and there were a lot of workarounds necessary to keep the thing in a somewhat decent and modern state.
