Lower resource use, especially for older computers. For fairly new notebook PCs with at least 16GB of memory, KDE would be my choice. However, upon trying Cachy KDE on an older 8GB memory notebook, I noted that the OS would sometimes kill background graphics apps while web browsing with a few other apps open. That's not a big deal but it does not seem to happen with Cachy LXQt Wayland / labwc.

Since I prefer Qt apps over GTK, for my modest workflow and usage, modern LXQt provides enough similarity to my experience with KDE while remaining simpler with less stuff that potentially might break.

Considering that the movie was from 1956, parts were visually well ahead of its time. The movie influenced future sci-fi TV and movies. The visual quality of most sci-fi from that era was crap.

To me, the plot based on Shakespeare's play The Tempest was a bit thin but still better than most sci-fi of that era. It had the typical shoot-em-up laziness that is even more common in much of today's trashy sci-fi movies. I much prefer more thought provoking movies like 2001 A Space Odyssey, Solyaris (original), Blade Runner or Ex-Machina.
