I guess I'm kind of confused as to the debate between Bleeding Edge vs Stable. I get the concept on paper, but what packages are so imperative that you need a Distro that is "Bleeding Edge". I run Pop_OS and it works great on my hardware(System76 so it kind of has the home field advantage). I have an old laptop running LMDE that doesn't ever need rebooted and it has every package I need for it to accomplish its job.

Others have given better advice than I will, but maybe determine why you need something that's bleeding edge. If the only answer is "Cuz Shiny new stuff!" I don't think it's needed that bad and tailor your setup for stability and functionality. I prefer Just Works Distros though. VM's are also a thing if you want to do some Distro Hopping

I have two Asus gaming laptops. My G74SX from 2011 is still trucking along great. It's not much for games anymore but great for Stardew Valley, browsing, and movies. My Zephyrus M16 is good overall with some complaints. I will throw out that for the same price of a gaming laptop, you can build a PC that is more powerful. You can even get a pre-build that will last you longer than a laptop. If you're dead set on the laptop though, I'd recommend an Asus. The hardware is great but the software fights you a bit

Tyr is really good and similar to Brothers of Metal. Check out Hold the Heathen Hammer High. If you want heavier, I'd recommend Amon Amarth or Ensiferum. The songs Axe of Judgement, One Man Army, or Twilight of the Thunder God get my blood pumping something fierce

Ski Mask tha Slump God, Del Tha Funky Homosapien, Die Antwoord, Polaris, Architects, Knocked Loose. uhh... Tyr, Amon Amarth, Ensiferum. Think that's a pretty broad net.

Let's see what you got. I like to longboard. I'm pretty big into hip-hop, metal core, and viking metal. I'm also quite passionate about OpSec and Cyber Security.

Enigma! Stopped pretty much everything after that incident.

Be the turtle rancher you wish to see in the world, friend. Or something like that

Small story. I've done more than my fair share of shrooms in my day. My guy stopped growing them and raised turtles instead, but that's not the point. I found a new person to acquire them from and being an "expert" psychonaut, I took about the same amount as always(4g) expecting a pretty moderate trip. Turns out the new guy knows how to grow some spicy Bois and I couldn't handle 4g of them. I'm not advocating for drug use, but if you plan on taking shrooms, remember that every bag is different and I am a huge proponent of taking a micro dose of any new batch before going for a macro dose. Dip your toes in before diving head first Anyway, this meme is literally me. Gave me a giggle

Listened to it at work today. Can't say it's my favorite, but it's got some bangers.

Pop_OS and I are going to be able to make it home and have fun with you. Huh....

This isn't factual. The first two Nuclear Devices were used without the knowledge of Eisenhower and was horrified when he learned of the aftermath. Someone else commented further down on his atrocities and while I believe the statements made, I cannot confirm those. I can confirm that he was kept in the dark about the use of nuclear weapons, and stopped a third device being used

One of those games you can only experience once. Such a masterpiece!!
