I've previously used versions 1.4.* and 1.5.* quite a bit for print, because I'm a one-man marketing department in a tiny company.

Scribus was (is?) somewhat finicky and cumbersome to work with. It had certain quirks and workarounds you had to learn to deal with. It lacked many creative features you find in bigger suites. I didn't feel like I worked quickly and efficiently in it. BUT I got my work done in it nevertheless, and I really appreciate that it exists for the people that simply can't afford the alternatives.

Nowadays I use the Affinity suite, which includes Affinity Publisher, a competitor to InDesign. It's quite affordable and not subscription-based.

Most of the problems I've experienced with Ubuntu recently were caused by Snap. I really hate that they insist shipping that buggy mess.

I've also made some "Trump in prison" images.

If they had a fund set up solely dedicated to a complete UI rework, with input from UX designers, I'd consider donating.

I'd like to recommend There Will Come Soft Rains by Ray Bradbury too.

Incidentally, I have Pump Six and Other Stories by Paolo Bacigalupi on my reading list. I've heard good things.

I can highly recommend The Machine Stops.

Do not look up when it was written before you read it. Read it and then take a guess.

Did you check that the date and time is set correctly in the BIOS?
