Install Ubuntu 23.04 on one computer and 24.04 on the other, let me know
what the noticeable differences are.

No need to actually install anything, just check the docs. Comparing
<https://packages.ubuntu.com/noble/> with
<https://packages.ubuntu.com/plucky/>, and picking out a few things at
random:

MariaDB version: 10.11 vs 11.4
Plasma desktop: 5.27.11 vs 6.3.2
Jupyter-notebook: 6.4.12 vs 6.4.13
Okular: 23.08.5 vs 24.12.2
Blender: 4.0.2 vs 4.3.2
opencollada-tools: new in 24.04
nyquist: 3.22 vs 3.23
FFmpeg: 6.1.1 vs 7.1.4
Kodi: 20.5 vs 21.2
vlc-bin: 3.0.20 vs 3.0.21
ark:23.0.85 vs 24.12.2
rsync: 3.2.7 vs 3.4.1
Python: 3.12.3 vs 3.13.2

That took me, I dunno, 10-15 minutes to find that lot. I’m sure there’s
lots more, but you get the idea.
