A lot of animals served in WWI. Hell, a French carrier pigeon was awarded the Croix de Guerre. Thousands of horses served and died. The record is pretty grim, really.

The long ones all seem to start as light novel titles, so there's something about current Japanese light novels that results in their titles being ridiculously long. (Older ones like "Kyo Kara Maoh!", "Twelve Kingdoms", and "Crest of the Stars" don't seem to share the issue—the earliest really bad one I can remember is "What will you do at the end of the world? Are you busy? Can you save us?" or whatever it was called.)
They didn't include my distro of choice (Gentoo) or my desktop environment (TDE) . . . but I'm not surprised. Lists like this aren't meant to be exhaustive, and they always reflect the author's biases and what they've been exposed to. Not including someone else's favourites doesn't make them bad lists for the purpose they're intended to serve.
Probably the best way to deal with newbie choice paralysis is a big flowchart, or a questionaire: "Which of these are important to you: 'just works' - stability - customizability - organizational transparency - keeping up with the bleeding edge - . . . "
We all knew that when India and southeast Asia got too expensive for this kind of bottom-feeding work, it was going to move to Africa. It's the endless search for the absolute cheapest labour.
Tristan, according to the full article. Guess the bot didn't think that was important.
Pretty sure she's the girl who came to young!Helck's aid towards the beginning of the multi-ep flashback, when he was looking for a doctor for Cless.
As a wild guess, try completely specifying the IP address in your fstab instead of relying on a wildcard. Wouldn't be the first time there was a slight difference in how a marginal feature like that worked in different contexts.
If the Chromebook is your property, you can do whatever you want with it, and it's unlikely that anyone will notice or care. I assume you're in the US, since you appear to be worried about DMCA encryption-related provisions. Don't be. Even if it were 100% guaranteed illegal with all necessary precedents, Google has better things to do with its time than track down individual jailbroken Chromebooks. It isn't like you're going to be selling them in quantity or using them to facilitate ransomeware attacks or something.
However, I'd invest in a used laptop instead, since it's likely to have more internal storage even if it lacks the !!shiny!! factor. Chromebooks are meant to store as little as possible locally, and that isn't how a normal Linux works. I suspect you'd start to get data claustrophobia pretty quickly.
I think you can be 99%—I didn't notice before, but the bag of tapioca starch near the bottom, if you zoom in, is labeled "Bangkok [?]ter Food Co. Ltd." in English along with the Chinese and probably-Thai, and Bangkok is in Thailand.
What language is that on the signage? Thai?
Slow death in a hospital unable to treat their condition because it's been disabled by ransomware?
Gentoo is a bad choice for a generic newb, yes, but I would say that Arch is too.
TDE wouldn't necessarily be a bad choice for first-timers if any distro of significance preinstalled it, but the extra installation work pretty much wipes out the user-friendliness it might offer, alas.
