If Windows 10 immediately destroys itself while trying to do its first update, you didn't actually fit it in 16gb. It hasn't fit inside of 32GB for several years now.

Now try finding the correct PD or altmode or cable on the first try
Of all the things that never happened, this never happened the most
First of all, make a habit of checking IsThereAnyDeal before getting any PC game. There are lots of PC game stores, many selling Steam keys for less than Steam. Or you could get a bundle with some games you like, some you would never think of, for less than the price of 1. Right now I think Fanatical is about the best of the bundlers, Humble sometimes has good stuff too.
You might want to get more of your games on GoG than Steam. It's a little more work to set up Heroic to handle GoG, but after that it is pretty close to automatic. Once you have a GoG game working, it is never going to say "I know there is an update out there and I refuse to play until you download all 50 ziggabytes of it on your tethering".
I'm not particularly fond of FPSes, so I can't help you there. If you haven't already played Batman Arkham or the new Tomb Raider games on a console, catch up on those? The Humble Mind-Bending Masterpieces bundle is fantastic, being stuck on a couple of puzzles and having them roll around in your mind during dull ship duties could work together. Fanatical's 3 for $5 BYO Relentless bundle has Red Faction Guerilla, Void Scrappers, Graveyard Keeper or Neverinth?
The worst part of flatpaks is that they don't get to see the actual path of files that they open. Instead, they get a /var/run/1000/blah proxy. The proxy is forgotten after you reboot, so any flatpak that memorized that path is holding a bunch of dead links.
The actual news is "renews focus on AI bullshit".
You can sorta change that default, but Apple sure loves to bury that particular setting. And occasionally forgets it.
First, make sure your laptop bios is up to date. Updating should be a simple matter of downloading the naked bios file, put it on a fat32 stick, boot into bios and use the built-in flasher.
You could set up a winToUSB drive to run the WD firmware update tool.
Or, you could go through this. https://community.frame.work/t/western-digital-drive-update-guide-without-windows-wd-dashboard/20616
I think he was trying to one-hand a snack platter that was just a little too epic
In my experience, gnome-shell already has a highly variable refresh rate. Sometimes it'll go 2-5 frames without refreshing at all.
I feel that Debian has been having a painfully slow stable cycle, but now that it just tipped over into a brand-new stable release people are checking it out again. You can reasonably try it out and expect it to just work on new-ish hardware, without having to hunt down hardware enablement kernels or whatnot.
