Besides cheating and choosing a Star Trek novel, I can think of several.

Eoin Colfer's Artemis Fowl might not be a bad one. Almost no matter who I chose, I'd have a comfortable life style.

Brandon Sanderson's Mistborn would be miserable to live in, but if I was a character with allomancy, that might be acceptable.

Additionally, I think 3.18 onward doesn't even support theming engines. As said, though, GIMP is stuck on GTK2.

If you're having a lot of trouble, perhaps just go with the Flatpak.

No. GTK 3 was a breaking change, and so was 4.

Please specify:

  • What distribution
  • What architecture
  • What desktop environment
  • What you have done so far to try to resolve the problem (e.g have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling the package?)

Based on your host name, I'm assuming it's Arch. From what I can tell from the terminal output, Ghostscript is missing (thus the libgs.so error). Maybe try reinstalling it with Pacman. Did you update your system and it somehow got autoremoved (I don't know Arch that well)?

I almost had a panic attack until I realized this was for UBlock Origin Lite rather than the normal, manifest v2 version. Still mad at Mozilla,though.

I could be totally delusional, but I think it's just something like dd if=whatchamacallit.dmg of=whatchamacallit.img. I think you can get a net install image through macrecovery, which is a utility included with OpenCore packages.

I think this VM is still on Sonoma, actually. I still need to upgrade.

I can't remember exactly what I did to get an installer image, but there's a million shell scripts online for downloading macOS installer images. For booting it, I use this premade OpenCore for KVM/Proxmox. I have to check if I made other modifications (I run on an AMD CPU), but I think I mainly just had to set the serial and model - I personally used a 2019 Mac Pro.

My university's introductory CS course has us using Java. It's a web IDE within a textbook, but weirdly enough, I found it's actually just connected to an AWS instance of Ubuntu.

I myself have been daily driving since my sophomore year of high school.

I think the answer is obvious. There are so many better alternatives available today. Some examples include:

  • Windows ME
  • Glorious Leader's Red Star OS
  • Temple OS
  • Don't use an operating system - sacrifice all your your time to studying the ways of the mighty Zarthadonatoxator instead. All hail Zarthadonatoxator! Zarthadonatoxator is the only true way!

That just sounds like classic Winsanity right there, not a hard drive issue.

What about Virt Manager GUI, which is what I use here? It's a frontend for QEMU and it's not that difficult, honestly.

iTunes will not work in Wine for the OP's use. For one, the OP will have to use an old version from 2019. Also, it won't be able to connect to any iDevices, as the driver support isn't there.
