This was just an outline of what you could do in the scenario, not a full solution. Looking up the keywords, "Apptainer" (+sandbox), ".sif", and "AppImage" should give you a starting point, and any specific questions can be answered separately. You are right that people could be jerks to beginners but this is rarely the intent. Not all discourse about Linux has to be at a beginner level, and packaging legacy software is not really a beginner topic.

I've been working with CUDA for 10 years and I don't feel it's that bad...

While it's a stupid question which he wouldn't have asked a white guy, it's not wholly illegitimate. Shou Zi Chew has major business ties to Mainland China, which is not a secret.

Funny but not so accurate. We don't actually know when Legolas was born, we don't know that the mithril coat was actually forged in Erebor (it could certainly have been brought during the resettlement from the Grey Mountains), and we don't know what "some young elf-prince long ago" actually means and that none was born since the fouding of Erebor (I don't think we have an exhaustive list of noble elves from the text).

Pull a docker image of an old distro into an apptainer sandbox, install what you need within, then make a .sif image, should work pretty much in perpetuity. You can also try to make an Appimage.

Abrechnung is really good and actively developed and improving. The UI is already pretty satisfactory, and there's also an API which is needed if for example you want to bulk-import a spreadsheet, for now you have to code it a bit.

I watched it on The National last night and also felt very little sympathy for the landlords. This type of investment is exploitative by its very nature, and this fact isn't changed even if the landlord behaves within the legally and socially acceptable parameters toward the tenant and has their own personal and financial woes. The guy is totally right, as an industry they are thriving on renters' backs, so if some landlords get screwed here and there I do not shed any tears.
