That's not what she says in the video though.
It's not Open Source / Free Software and it's also based on Blink, like all Chromium browsers.
Not really sure about its selling points, but supporting Google's grip on web standards seems to clash with the statement of openness in this advertisement.
It working again after cooling down is an indication for heat creep IMHO. The filament is getting too hot up to where the gears are, causing them to slip and not feed filament.
If we are being fair, they are still reasonably fair to users. Open source gaming is not a reality.
They don't force you to use Steam, but still work on Proton as Open Source. They don't lock down their hardware.
What I'm trying to say is, while Valve is not perfect, it's much better than any big tech alternative.

Apparently "STINKY" is the default StarLink SSID (Another Musk joke), so yeah...
That's not been true for a long time.
Especially for a private home server, SSDs run quieter, cooler, and are more compact.

Every time I see one of these in my feed I feel exactly the same. Even those that I understand the humor of, I find not particularly funny.
You already got some good replies, but I still have something to add:
It is extremely unlikely you will permanently brick your laptop. The realistically worst thing to happen is that you end up without any working OS, be it Windows or Linux. If you can get help you will be able to install Windows again (not that hard though to do by yourself).
Second thing is that Linux installers usually come with a live environment. That means that your windows installation is absolutely safe while Mint runs from your USB. You can then do some browsing or play around with Mint before deciding to install it permanently.
Go into settings, system, backup. GrapheneOS has a built-in backup provider that can use USB drives.
This uses the same mechanism as a Google Backup, just without Google servers.
Apple already lost in the EU and need to allow other app stores
