Usually, I throw college assignments in a folder under documents.

Admittedly, that irks me slightly just because of the shared name with the devices folder in root, but do what works for you.

I just realized that alternate Boimler is dying his beard as well.

Fixed that little goof up.

EDIT: Fix grammar mistake.

Usually, Flatpaks. My generally philosophy is that if it isn't in Debian, it probably won't last. I make exceptions when something is the best tool for the job, like Tom J Watson's Emote.

This isn't rock solid, I admit - there are plenty of defunct projects that were once in Debian repos (neofetch is still in sid), and there are plenty of lasting projects outside Debian.)

I think I meant to put TWOK, for Wrath of Khan. TOK was an IB class I took in high school, so my brain defaulted to that.

I don't know about the hub specifically, but I have a One Touch portable external HDD that touts some of the same features. I've never had any particular problems with it - it's just a normal USB mass storage device. The "special features" provided by the Seagate Toolkit (not available on Linux) seem like they're done at the filesystem level.

If you don't care about encryption, it will most likely just work - format it however you like. If you care about encryption, there's ways like LUKS or filesystems with FS-level support, depending on how much you care about interoperability with non-Linux systems. You might also be able to do something kooky like format it with Bitlocker on Windows, which I think can still be mounted on a Linux system; I was able to access my encrypted Windows partition from my Linux install on my Surface if I entered the key - I'm sure there's a way to automate that part.

An update: According to S2 E10 Sanctuary, the guy below the Ferengi (not shown in this screenshot) is stated to be Plix Tixiplik, who had previously shown up in TNG, further affirming them being previous Trek actors.

I think it’s mistly okay. I had a bit of misery with my 8852BE on my new Thinkpad E16 (the card would just disconnect from the system until the next reboot occasionally), which was solved with some kernel parameters I found online.

It only gets better (Except for A Mathematically Perfect Redemption). I will warn you the early part of season 1 is probably carried by reference humor, whereas the rest of the series begins to hold up on its own in addition to the quality reference humor.

I don’t know. You should make sure it doesn’t have a Realtek Wi-Fi card. Otherwise, it looks fine. I found the Linux Hardware report for it here: https://linux-hardware.org/?probe=7144bb41

I think the price to performance doesn’t look the best, though. Maybe go for a Thinkpad instead?
