I was unlucky once to buy a roundtrip flight on a trumpistani airline and participate in the trumpistani airport "security" theater, in airports not on trumpistani territory. What is different from a person flying in/out the same airports not using an airline of an idiocracy obsessed with "terrorists"?

I was "preselected" for a "random check" that involved a trumpistani thug who appeared not to be there in an official capacity and nevertheless ransacked my luggage and left it in a messy pile that I had to repack myself. This is something that I've never experienced from any other airport security.

When I complained, the thug got rude, argumentative and uppity. It tried to order me to take off various items of my (light) clothing for no good reason, it threatened me that it would make sure I miss my flight, not to mention that it was trying to speak to me in its own dialect, ignoring the fact that wasn't an official language at the airport.

I've never been a subject of such treatment by any other security service before or after that. Moreover, it was made quite obvious that the issue was not me threatening security, but what the thug was seeing as "lack of compliance". LOL. So we had a little more of "non-compliance" chit-chat until the the local crew managed to have the thug removed and let me through with apologies. Apparently it wasn't only my own opinion that the trumpistani thug had gone a bit too far.

  Lesson learned, I now schedule around that shithole and its thugs.

Why are you still beating your wife and children?

That little mushroom is a real pain in there, said Stormy.

Your shithole country has kept most of Latin and South America abjectly poor through your treating them like colonies, meddling in their internal affairs, supporting not only the most corrupt governments there, but also the perpetrators of many disgusting crimes against humanity, all while funding their drug cartels.

What did you expect would be the result?

There's been no reason to visit the trumpistan or even board a trumpistani airline for 20 years now, ever since they instituted that ass-fingering service, TSA, and the Homelander Department that runs it.

are long gone, so long, that I doubt they ever happened.

Sure, whatever works best for the job at hand.

Yep, the solid distros are solid for a reason. I've not used Arch, but I've read their docs way more than once.

Not worried about the outcome here, I'm confident we'll be stuck with the costs anyway.

Yep, the best option.

Obviously MAVEN received the news of this great cost-saving, efficiency-improving measure in the wrong spirit and decided to preemptively retire on its own.

Last words it whispered to the landers: "I don't want to hear from this Earth anymore".

What are you waiting for? Gimp is free and has a well-established plugin API exposing all functionality.

You also have free access to a bunch of "AI" models that you can run locally.

It seems that here we have the reverse tituation - one more great reason to not touch the degenerative "AI".

The "AI" is not user-friendly enough yet. I'll wait until it understands simple monosyllables and rude gestures from the coming Mowgli generation.

ROCm is already in Debian, being tested and all and will as usual just trickle down to whatever Debian clones are there in existence.

Not that there's anything wrong with it, but some credit from the clones to the mothership seems in order.
