I say the solution is one step earlier. Backups and snapshots.

Use BTRFS or ZFS filesystem on your install and use snapshots to be able to rollback if things go bad.
Here's an example on how to set up BTRFS with automatic snapshots:

For backups Borg is popular:

Here's a good read regarding the different versions:
https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-faq/choosing.en.html

3.1.5. Could you tell me whether to install stable, testing or unstable?
No. This is a rather subjective issue. There is no perfect answer as it depends on your software needs, your willingness to deal with possible breakage, and your experience in system administration. Here are some tips:

Stable is rock solid. It does not break and has full security support. But it not might have support for the latest hardware.

Testing has more up-to-date software than Stable, and it breaks less often than Unstable. But when it breaks, it might take a long time for things to get rectified. Sometimes this could be days and it could be months at times. It also does not have permanent security support.

Unstable has the latest software and changes a lot. Consequently, it can break at any point. However, fixes get rectified in many occasions in a couple of days and it always has the latest releases of software packaged for Debian.

Personally I mostly run Debian Stable and on the one machine where I don't I run a completely different distro altogheter (Fedora). If I didn't run Fedora I would rather use Sid (unstable) than Testing.

The community seems to have been removed from lemmynsfw.com so I recommend you check with that instance admin:

So it's a lightweight laptop but lacks the battery time to work on the go. (6 hours)

I imagine the youtube link is about the following:
Discord is firing back against MapleStory devs over copyright infringement and users are caught in the crossfire.

All those wives and girlfriends in denial even though the rape is documented with photos and video. Kudos to Gisèle for making the trial public.

It still amazes me, when I read these child free articles from across the pond, that the world can be so completely different.
In Sweden a working parent is allowed to stay home to take care of a sick child and get almost 80% of your salary from compensation, statistics from 2022 says that men use 40% of that sick child leave.
It's not 50/50 yet and we still have some "old school" husbands saying they're baby sitting when taking care of their own kids. They are usually shamed about it nowadays though.

When my wife and I are in high energy and do lots of fun stuff we say "Thank goodness we don't have kids, this would've been impossible!", when we are tired, sleeping in and spend a weekend doing the absolute minimum we say the same.

In some cases they look for generic virtual hw devices, in other cases things like available cpu flags or BIOS version.
There are ways to hide it though:

I consider June 2025 to be summer. :)

Kinda similar in size to the new Sony Xperia 10 IV and Sony Xperia 10 VI. It's a step in the right direction, but I really want them to shrink down a bit in height too.

You could always find some nice online cooperative game to play together, should give you stuff to talk about. Or choose to read the same book at the same time and talk about the latest chapter. Or use one of all those "watch tv together apart" sites that was created during covid. Or follow the same recipe and eat dinner together. With a little creativity you can do quite a lot of activities together apart.
What I wouldn't do is agree to be in a relationship with someone you've never met, or loan them money for that matter.

After browsing through Subscribed/New I usually check out All/Top 12 hours and All/Active. If I still feel the need to doomscroll I might venture into All/New. My Subscribed list isn't moving very fast...
