Da fuq? That was hilarious. Also, maybe.
I’m just this guy, you know?

Worthless.
I happen to have LMDE installed on a Lenovo Thinkpad Carbon X1 (Gen 3) tablet. It has a stylus that takes a AAAA (yes, quad-A) battery. Its an i5 or i7 Intel processor, and has a 3k Wacom sensor display. I’ve played with Inkscape on it and I think it fits the bill nicely, but it’s also discontinued.
Cinnamon was the only DE with DPI scaling that worked worth a damn, and also had good native support for screen autorotation and onscreen keyboard.
I need to completely wipe and reinstall the system now because I configured my slices too small, and for some reason decided not to put root in an LVM like a sane person would have (it was 2017 tho. Different times…)
Anyhoo, if you can come by one through the refurb market, I think it comes closest to your spec, saving the no-battery stylus.
Sometimes I use nutella & orange marmalade 🤫
I’m a junkie for YouTube maker videos and other forms of creative infotainment. I binge on This Old Tony and Farmcraft101 videos, but I also listen to several podcasts adjacent to my (rather technical) professional sector.
Ugh, and politics. Stresses me out too.

Probably I’m neither a tankie nor not a tankie, but I like tossing grenades in these sorts of surveys.
Oh, and then I guess it inspired Bowie’s single, Major Thom
2001: A Space Odyssey (1968), at the time of its release, was based on a short story called The Sentinel by Arthur C Clarke. In that story, the roots of the Tycho Monolith plot segment of 2001 of is sketched out, and then expanded as both a screenplay and a full-length novel.
I mean, we can’t tax the businesses for their behavior. They might, I dunno, leave?
Have you tried Mint, specifically LMDE¹? It (Mostly) Just Works™ like Ubuntu, but without the Canonical baggage. It handled my weird Lenovo Carbon X1 slate out of the box. Stable like Debian, progressive like Debian isn’t.

“Full stack” is meant to be complimentary but is also highly situational, in the same way credentialed engineers and credentialed architects bristle when those.terms are used in the tech sector. They Did the Program, and Showed the Work. Those.of us in the tech sector are doing some stolen valor.by adopting those titles in our roles.
“Full stack” is situational because no two shops use the same stack. Every shop has its own technology preferences, so if you know Apache and ServiceNow, you’ll still be useless in a shop that uses Xendesk and Nginx. It just.means you know YOUR venue’s technology organization.
Really it’s an industry buzz term, and you should run from any recruiters who casually use it but can’t also describe exactly WHAT stack that shop they’re pimping is using.
I understand most of the stack from photons to UX. I run optical, packet hardware and I define software. I consult on security and I inform the service desks. I’m that “break glass” guy you don’t want to call in the middle if the night because I might be sarcastic, and then I’ll cancel meetings for the next two days in revenge.
I’ve also been in this swamp since before the sky learned how to rain.
Call me whatever you want, but you’d best smile when you say it or I’ll delete your account and blackhole your network.

When it’s Ubuntu? When it’s Fedora?
Relaaax. I keed, I keed.
It’s bloated when I cant look at any given package having been installed and understand within three dependencies why.
Never checked it out, myself. Good to know. 👍
It’ll be remembered a dark age when the lights go out and all the disks rot. And, if I know archaeologists, they’ll call our data centers ritual centers or temples.
Otherwise there will be disbelief at the inexplicably sophisticated engineering, and how we could have achieved it all with no written records. Probably it was all just ancient aliens.
