In my experience, people who respond so aggressively with insults are highly insecure, so I'll reassure you: Take a breath. Everything is ok. You will be alright. Don't worry about all your self doubts and loathing. Just stay strong and you'll make it through this big ol' world, mmkay?
In fairness, they had to identify what the Youtubers themselves were doing, and piece together which of their, presumably, many "reviews" were connected and actually contained malware. A better headline still would be, "Youtubers fall for phishing campaign, blame Google".
This is the key point being missed here. The U.S. isn't doing a tit-for-tat implementation, it's trying to bully other countries out of tax revenues that they rightly deserve. The U.S. implemented the GILTY tax to stop companies from offshoring profits. Other countries are essentially doing the same thing by taxing companies in their own country, rather than letting them move profits elsewhere. The U.S. is definitely offside with this move.
Just because your keyboard is different (I'm guessing it's a Mac) doesn't mean that another keyboard is mislabeled. The story is focused on Mac computers without any apparent consideration of other products. On my keyboard--and many others--both buttons are labeled "enter" and both produce a key code of 13, which is enter on PC. In other words, there is no return button at all.
All that said, in the world of Macs, the article is still correct that return _technically_ does not equal enter, but that's just being pedantic.
Everything you need to know is in one sentence, "After funding his account with $15,000 in credit card advances...". Clearly this guy is terrible with finances as you should never be using a credit card to finance investments. This story should be titled, "People with poor understanding of money unsurprisingly lose money doing things they don't understand."
I definitely welcome the phone jumping to the passcode prompt sooner, as I've encountered this issue plenty. But let's be clear, nobody is being forced to take off their mask. The passcode prompt already pops up after a couple failed FaceID attempts. Users could also temporarily turn off FaceID. I'm not saying that is desired; let's just not exaggerate things.

New submitter KeithCu writes with a lengthy explanation of the joys (and just a handful of glitches) he's had in running Arch Linux on his ultraportable, a Lenovo Yoga 2. Other than the hardware-specific issues, I've been amazed by how well Arch Linux works, given that it doesn't have release cycles, or a big team with a lot of money supporting and marketing it. I've heard only 30 developers maintain the core Arch packages, with most of them having a full-time job doing something else! At the same time, it shouldn't be a total surprise things work so well, because free software doesn't just fall off a turnip truck.
Not many reviews feature pictures of a laptop charred from building LibreOffice.
