I don't remember exactly what lead up to it, but I ended up watching reruns of Voyager with my dad every day back when Spike TV was still a thing. I think that really improved my relationship with him.

Thank you for the correction. I try to be as accurate as possible when providing information, but I misremembered the specs.

I have a Thinkpad T480 and I'm very happy with it. I paid about $250 (~£190) for mine. It came with 16 GB RAM, but is upgradable to 32 GB. The one I bought came with a 128 GB SSD, but I swapped it out for a 1 TB drive which added another $100 (~£76) to my initial investment. This model originally came with Windows 10 and most on the market will come with it, but can be updated to 11 if desired.

I personally have not used Win11 since they made some changes I don't like, so I can't really give you advice on that aspect.

Yo dawg, I heard you like emulating, so I put an emulator in your emulator so you can emulate while you emulate.

More or less. I think there are some differences between the Q and K based models, but they're close enough to not require separate ports of Rockbox.

You should look into Rockbox. It's an open source alternative firmware for a variety of portable media players that adds features such as support for more file formats (and it runs Doom). As for which supported players I'd recommend then maybe a flash modded iPod or an AIGO Eros Q or K (also sold as the HIFI WALKER H2, Surfans F20, or AGPTek H3).

Are you referring to a drawing tablet? If so, then a good number of ones from the better known brands are supported by the kernel by default. Your safest bet though is Wacom. Wacom is definitely the best supported brand, but it tends to be more expensive than other brands (such as XP-pen and Huion). Non-Wacom branded tablets may require a little bit more initial configuration, like adding a udev rule (I had to do that for my Huion Inspiroy Ink).

It's not open source, but Tumblr is a decent option if you want something fairly easy to setup. Additionally, it can look very professional with a good theme..

As others have already mentioned, Pixelfed is probably your best option for a FOSS solution to your problem.

Odds are that the pilots themselves didn't see him and would have learned about the situation from air traffic control. It was late at night, there's a limited range of sight from a cockpit, and at least one of the pilots is going to be paying more attention to the pre-flight checklists than their surroundings. Additionally, even if they shutdown the engines it would still take time for them to fully stop. As for the footage being cut off, it's probably because that portion hasn't been (and probably won't ever be) released to the public. Ultimately, you're going to have to wait for the NTSB's report for more details.
