I used Ubuntu for many years on an nvidia machine and had a shit ton of nvidia problems, but I haven't used Ubuntu for a long time now so I would hope there's been progress. The experience has made me a lifelong AMD user since though.

I've never had trouble installing them. Getting them to work after an update is another story.

In that case I suggest documenting things to prove it's not you making the noise, and escalate to local government/council/etc

I personally think portrait monitors, like a standard modern smartphone, would resolve most of these problems.

Also for programming, most IDEs make good use of the horizontal space and expect a roughly 16:9 screen where the IDE takes up most of the space on that screen. Not that you can't just minimise the side panels but still, it's a helpful feature of the software.

As for why portrait isn't the default, I dunno, but if you start using a portrait monitor at work you'll probably get some coworkers following suit if it's such an improvement.

I would agree to complain to a third party. The landlord, and if they don't do anything, try whatever the equivalent of a local government/city council/etc is in your country. Depending on your legal system, this may be a dispute that could be resolved in a civil court if escalating to landlords/councils/etc goes nowhere. And also, clearly there is nothing you can do to stop them from making these noises, so stop trying, and be as loud as you want. They are already being as loud as they want.

Are you the only two households in this block? If not, your neighbours also have neighbours who will be annoyed by the noise. You could lodge a collective complaint to the aforementioned authorities, or you could as a group confront these neighbours, if you don't expect them to be violent/armed. By "confront" I mean knocking on their door and talking to them about it directly, to be clear.

I have a blog generated with Hugo, but currently pretty sparse. I have a few tech tutorials explaining how I did cool projects I did, but I post very intermittently. I don't want to post if I don't have anything interesting or helpful to say. If I had more time, I would love to have time to read more books and write essays for my blog, but at the moment I don't feel well-read enough to have anything super unique to say that's not been better said by another writer I can link to.

If/when I have money to spare, I share that money by a function of how much I use a piece of software, and how much the project needs funding (so a combination of costs vs income). So generally the projects I donate most to are the ones I use daily, and also are either more obscure or more expensive to maintain.

Why are the feet significantly different sizes

Idk about an informal word but I call it butt crease. Probably not the medical term but it's what I call it for medical contexts (as a patient)

I'm not sure about a dedicated website but you can already do that by just having a blog and sharing your blog posts to a link aggregator (like Lemmy or Hacker News). You could possibly create a Lemmy community that only allows "grassroots" "journalism", ie no professional news articles but only amateur/hobbyist blog posts.

Is the furry in the background also for old people?

Is it illegal to film police where you are? If it's not illegal then just use your camera app. You can probably configure it so that you can open the camera app from the lockscreen without a password, but then of course make sure you can't e.g. access anything from your gallery from the camera app. I have always just used my camera app to film police. There also used to be "secret recording" apps for Android at least, but I believe modern Android security doesn't allow for that kind of app behaviour anymore.
