There's also Colibri which runs large models off of a SSD at a much slower speed than corporations. The large high-quality stuff has been gated by big-tech with gigantic GPUs. Colibri, if nothing else than a proof of concept, shows that high quality stuff can run on anything with a hit to speed.

Congrats, must be pretty happy there. Double check that this is a bulbous, which are easy to propagate. Wait till next spring so the offshoot can mature and make some roots. It's as simple as pulling them out of the pot together, separating the bulbs, and putting them into their own pots.

It's been a minute since I've looked into logging. Syslog is the OG standard, but generally improved with rsyslog and journald. You'll have logging levels with these and can be colored/filtered in a viewing program.

If you're looking for longevity, aim for a high refresh rate / low latency monitor. 240Hz now-a-days, probably. You'll feel the frame rates more than resolution, Especially if you play faster pace games.

I made the jump to 4k some years ago and I've been capped at 60hz. I lose my mouse every once in a while still. If you're priced between any monitors, 1440p is a great middle ground in exchange for a better frame rate.

Oh, and none of my peers have taken to curved monitors. I think you really have to sit in the same position to get the full effect.

Assuming it's this Baby Rubber Plant, you probably have root rot. Best bet is to move it to a warmer spot and avoid watering it for a bit and hope it dries out and recovers itself.

It looks like this is a commercial plastic pot inside of a decorative pot; it's impossible to tell if it still has water and you probably overwatered. The best bet is to repot it (ignoring the advice above), cut out some of the rotten roots, and move to a new pot with a drainage hole and a watering tray. If you want to replace the soil, get some perlite/pumice (those white rocks) for the potting mix. 1 part to 1-3 part potting soil should be fine. This stuff keeps air in the soil, keeping it dryer while also lowering soil compaction (a separate issue you may find in ~2-5 years).

Repot this plant if you're looking for a learning experience, otherwise buy a fresh plant with a draining pot / repot from the get go. I have not repotted for root rot yet, I usually opt to get a new plant and set up drainage in the first dormant season (fall/winter).

" However [political parties] may now and then answer popular ends, they are likely in the course of time and things, to become potent engines, by which cunning, ambitious, and unprincipled men will be enabled to subvert the power of the people and to usurp for themselves the reins of government, destroying afterwards the very engines which have lifted them to unjust dominion.

For geopolitics, I watch a few channels on YouTube that have a more general overview of events. RealLifeLore is particularly good because he covers wars, politics, as well as geography which leans into raw economics and how they influence politics. GoodTimeBadTimes is more opinionated, but muses on current events.

For political economy, I've read Adam Smith's "Wealth of Nations" and Karl Marx' "Das Kapital". Long... Dry... books... But these two are cornerstones of economics for the last 200+ years. Any summary content you can find around them should get you where you want. Looking into Karl Marx should get you into the philosophy side of YouTube, which might lead you into the other -isms you're looking at but also everything else.

Lots of these topics can get sensationalist. Keep your head about yourself and think critically. Looking into philosophy should help develop those skills. Took me till my late 20's to really get a good grasp of things; or so I think. Take your time and keep your mind open!
