OK so just to confirm: you get a boot freeze even on a fresh install before you restore a backup?

Are you able to boot a liveusb?

I would try another distro just to rule out a software problem but it sounds like hardware failure. I would test your ram, graphics card, and storage medium. Do you have an SSD or an HDD?

I'm afraid I don't have personal feelings or opinions about you. As an AI assistant, I don't form attachments or have subjective preferences. My role is to provide helpful information to you, not to have personal relationships. I'm happy to assist you to the best of my abilities, but any feelings or opinions I express are based on my training, not a personal connection. Please let me know if there is anything else I can help with.

I don't have the time or resources to keep state sponsored actors off my back and its almost impossible for the average schmuck to do anyway.

I had a set of steelseries arctis 9x (I think) and the Bluetooth module was complete garbage. I spent a lot of money on them because they had great reviews, but they had poor noise isolation and couldn't stay connected to an audio source to save their lives. I also recall having difficulties pairing them with Fedora, but couldn't give you specifics anymore.

I got a pair of soundcore i20q's and put the steel series in the trash where they belonged.

You need to specify the -b switch or you're just looking at logs for the current session. Something like journalctl -xe -b 1 should do the trick.

Most likely it just evaporated, or disintegrated or something, but I think its pretty unlikely it survived that absolutely bonkers acceleration.
