Some people prefer offices, others not. My employer gave us the option of where we work, and it's been working out very well. About 5% chose to be in the office, another 10-15% are hybrid, the rest are fully remote. With proper support from management, it works great.

Investing comes with risks. Sounds like they're sour about being on the losing end for once.
I'm indifferent to them. I use their products, but I'm not a huge fan. I use them because I dislike the alternatives more.
I've been considering trying to degoogle myself, but honestly it would be complicated, and there's a wife-approval factor that likely hinders that. We have multiple Chromecasts, Next hubs, etc around the house, and my wife likes the ease of use. I am slowly building up a home assistant instance, but still tying it into the Google home integration for ease of wife approval.
I use what works best for me, and right now most of those options are from Google.
Interesting. Looks like perhaps your boot loader isn't properly pointing at your root partition.
I'm assuming you've just done the install and never successfully booted, yes? In that case, you can try to re-run the installer, or try rescue mode and try repairing the bootloader.
Are you doing dual-booting, or is this system dedicated to Linux?
Same situation, I packed up my Xbox because we're looking to move. Cancelled Game Pass Ultimate sub for now, but maybe I don't end up resubscribing.
Fair, but I meant updates from the original manufacturer.
You gain very little from security because nobody is targeting you...
It's not about being targeted, it's about being caught in the big fishing net that scammers are throwing. You don't have to be targeted to have security concerns.
If a phone isn't receiving regular security updates, I won't use it. My Pixel 5a just got replaced because it's coming up on end of support. My new Pixel has 7 years of support, so I feel a lot better about keeping it longer.
There are probably newer ones that come with LiPos. But every consumer grade one I've seen is traditional lead acid batteries.
...(it is kinda like a bomb after all)...
WAT? I've never heard a UPS referred to as "kinda like a bomb" before.
Keep your UPS maintained, replace the batteries when they age out, and it will be fine. If your UPS supports automated self-tests, use them.
My employer has UPS units spread all over the region we operate in, and we don't have any issues, despite leaving them mostly unattended for years. I have several in my house and I've never given them a second thought aside from battery replacements.
My VPN app took a shit in the middle of a download and I think it exposed my IP to some “anti-piracy” bullshit firm that contacted my ISP.
I think you answered your own question.
The ID on the phone thing is weird. Like I’m gonna give my phone to a cop when they ask for my ID. That’s a nope from me.
That just seems like a privacy nightmare. No one touches my phone. There’s way too much personal info on there to hand over to anyone, much less cops.
