I'm actually on Manjaro, but ( AUR ) probably wouldn't have been as easy to recognize, and ( Flatpak Repository ) or ( AppImage Install ) seemed like a lot.

A few assumptions:
- There will be some sort of PC available, with a keyboard and mouse and speakers, and basic programs to play audio/video, read text/PDF documents, etc. that don't count toward my 1GB limit
- I will have knowledge ahead of time about this PC and its specs, OS, installed programs, etc.
First, I'd make sure to include a stripped down version of 7zip, or whatever compression I use (y'all don't wanna get on there and realize you can't decompress your files). Hopefully only a few MB for a CLI utility.
Second, I'd include a decent library stored in a compressed text format. Some fiction, some non-fiction, classics, some of my favorite series, a bunch of "Intro to ___" type of books, that kind of thing. Probably up to 50MB or so.
Third, I would include some low-quality audio of some favorite music as well as a few audio books. Maybe 200MB or so.
Fourth, I'd include a copy of a simple game engine system (maybe something like libgdx) as well as Inkscape, and whatever compiler I would need to create programs/games for my PC, and relevant documentation. This would give me both a creative outlet, and allow me and my companion to make new games for each other to have something novel. Hopefully around 100 or 200MB.
Depending on the size, I might also consider including something like FruityLoops, again to be able to create new content. Ideally something that's 100MB or so.
With whatever space I have left (300 or 400MB-ish), I'd include things like emulators and a couple favorite older games (Lord of the Realms 2 comes to mind) that have good replay value and would be small enough to fit. Ideally some multi-player options as well (assuming a shared keyboard).
Without previous knowledge of the available PC, I'd include multiple builds of 7zip for most common architectures, and prioritize the books and audio. Maybe bring a couple variants of GCC and minGW (if I can write programs, I can eventually replicate lots of the other software).

It kinda depends on the license. Copyleft licenses are definitely digital communism--but licenses like CC or other extremely permissive licenses are digital libertarianism. I'm good with it in any case.

Math! Also, noise!
There are algorithms (a set of math steps) that make pseudo-random numbers. These usually involve large prime numbers, because those usually generate fewer repeating patterns.
A truly random number generator is similar to rolling dice: you use some source of randomness and convert it to a number. All electric circuits produce "noise" (which is often received radio waves and such that interfere with the circuits). Think of tuning a radio to a channel with nothing on it--you get "white noise", which can be a good source of random information. Then all you need to do is convert that to a range of numbers, and you're good to go.
These are fairly simplified explanations, so take them with a grain of salt, but they give the general idea.

It depends on what you mean by "outperform." Raw damage? Maybe, but it'll depend somewhat on the gear you find. Utility? Again, depends on what feats you choose. Control? Fighter, if you take the PAM/Sentinel combo (easy enough with the extra ASIs).
Both characters will be close enough in most things that I would recommend choosing whichever one you think would be more fun and engaging for you. Lv 1 to 20 is typically a long time, and combat will only be part of that (I assume).
I would also ask your DM about whether they'd have any table rules about the Berzerker fatigue thing. If they'd rule it RAW, I'd recommend a Totem barbarian instead. Bear totem at Lv 3 makes you feel like an absolute beast, IMO.

I work in engineering in a college town--we hire a ton of interns and co-op students. In terms of Gen Z, some of them mess up a few of the "protocol" things (for example, we had one guy who wore cargo shorts one day when it got hot in the summer). But the vast majority of them are more than fine when we give them direction, and are great employees overall. In fact, percentage-wise, I'd say more of them have better work ethic than most of the boomers who refuse to retire (no, Richard, scheduling twelve meetings back-to-back isn't "productive," it's a waste of everyone's time). They'll boast about working overtime, but 80% of their day they're shooting the shit and producing nothing.

I'll echo the "see a therapist if it's feasible" recommendations. Here's another possibility:
We all have a worldview, and that includes our own understanding of who we are. One of the possible reasons for self-sabotage is when we believe ourselves to be a certain way (or that we do/don't deserve something), we tend to self correct for any anomalies, whether good or bad. That is, if I was treated poorly as a child, or otherwise lacked the love and support that children need, I might believe myself to be unlovable and "correct" anything that contradicts that understanding (such as someone showing interest in me).
It could be that, or any number of other things. I'll echo another recommendation: take note of your emotions when you're in those situations (you might even be able to feel them when you imagine a situation like you described). What do you feel?

Is there a KVM switch out there
Not that I've found. I have a similar setup (Thunderbolt dock with two monitors and two laptops). I think the single dock solution is enough for most people, so there's not much financial incentive for people to make a bigger KVM switch.
2 workstations
Depends entirely on your expected use case. Would having two different PCs active at once be helpful for you? I don't imagine it would be cheaper, but depending on your machine specs and desired performance, it could end up being cheaper (than having a dock that supports 4 displays and ensuring all your PCs can handle that through one port).

Slow down there, what's wrong with good ol' assembly?
It was a big hit.
Just swim across--the crocodiles are still at the meeting.
but they couldn't start because someone was missing. Who was it? It was the giraffe. It's still stuck in the fridge.
Open the door, remove the elephant, put the giraffe in the fridge, then close the door.
Open the door, put the elephant into the refrigerator, and close the door.
It's okay, though. They told me to reapply every few hours.
Grunk need job. Grunk see job carving. Carving say need ten season experience with wheel. But Grunk invent wheel 5 season ago. Grunk think job giver have wheel in place of head.
I won't be taking questions.
Bonus points if someone warned you and you went ahead anyway.

More monkeys!
This might sound antithetical to the privacy-by-default standard, but my wife and I currently share our photo rolls with each other (using Google Photos)--everything we take is automatically shared with the other. Is there anything in Proton Drive/Photos that would allow this? Even if it's only available within a family plan or something. I know that with Drive, we could share a directory and everything in that would be available to the other, but I don't see this as an option in the photos. Alternatively, I suppose we could both sign in to Proton Drive using a third account just for that purpose, but that's less ideal.
And why is it, "Into Avernus: the Search for a Heart"?
It was founded by a group of monks from the southern USA. Rather than building a chapel, they chose to live in a series of underground tunnels. The nearest town only saw the elusive monks once a year, when they would break their usual stoic diet and make traditional southern fried chicken for everyone in town. They were known as the deep friars.
