Because those little fuckers are fun to flick across the room, then get lost under the couch.

Based on the 2020 US election, we know at least 74,222,958 people that fall under the seagull intelligence standard.
This was what I was talking about. The manufacturer offers two different "approved" lubricants for their hubs. On a budget, you get what you can get. You're right though, if you want really quiet, get the ones made for it.
Don't feed the trolls
We send them over to you. It's starting to work! Unfortunately they reproduce rapidly. It's a losing battle.
There's no way that would work, would it? I can't imagine installing linux to an NTFS volume and it actually functioning.
Oh yeah. I've done it just for fun before reimaging a machine. It will mostly complete (some stuff isn't a real file so rm just fails), and your desktop environment will remain up and running while it happen. Then errors start popping up, icons stop working, nothing loads anymore, you can't reboot or shutdown because those were actually commands, and they're missing now...
The key to customization is not going out of bounds. If you customize, do it the way it was intended to be customized, not by finding weird, hacky shit that works like some kind of digital Rube Goldberg machine. If you find yourself writing convoluted bash scripts, and dredging up plugins on GitHub with the last commit from 2012, you're on a crash course with destiny.
That's categorically untrue. As long as you stick with well supported, mainstream distributions, most things just work.
