I’ve always just used konsole or gnome terminal. Never really looked into what else is available. Tried cool-retro-term the other day, but the novelty wore off pretty fast for me....

I have a few Linux servers at home that I regularly remote into in order to manage, usually logged into KDE Plasma as root. Usually they just have several command line windows and a file manager open (I personally just find it more convenient to use the command line from a remote desktop instead of directly SSH-ing into the...
On a typical home user desktop linux setup, there’s virtually no difference between your regular user and root.
Access to your data, emails, passwords, installing software (in /home), access to LAN and so on are already possible without root permissions, so there really is not a whole lot that an attacker cannot do even without root.
And then, if you use sudo or su (or whatever) to switch to root with a password, escalating to root privileges is basically trivial for an attacker. An attacker can divert your PATH to compromised binaries. They could just replace “sudo” with their own little script that steals your password.
Yesterday night I had a problem with a usb port and the touch pad not working, I restarted the system a few times and switched back and forth with windows (which is installed on a different drive), they didn't work even there.After a few restarts the usbport and the touch pad came back to life, but the wifi stopped working. When...
So I assume this is not old info and the thing shows up in lspci?
wifi seems to be a shell script coming from tlp, maybe you can do:
sh -x /usr/bin/wifi
to figure out why it thinks you have no wifi. This gives you a trace of the commands that wifi actually runs.
Also, wifi should be managed by NetworkManager so you could look into that documentation and log files for that. Also look at kernel logs like dmesg maybe.
Also also, this could be hardware problem of course. Maybe it just needs to be fully powered off to reset. Have you tried removing the battery? If you cannot do that, there might be little hole at the bottom of the laptop, to stick a paper clip into, to completely power cycle the machine. Maybe that’ll reset it.
I have a Python-package that calls Inkscape as part of a conversion process. I have it installed, but through Flatpak. This means that calling inkscape does not work in the terminal, but rather flatpak run org.inkscape.Inkscape. I need the package to be able to call it as inkscape....
Which terminal emulator do you use?

Make Inkscape installed through Flatpak callable in the terminal as 'inkscape'?
