I’ve used old laptops as battery backed up NAS boxes.
Obviously assumes that you can install a reasonably large drive and that the battery still has some life left in it.

Not everyone will use every coupon in the book
Most people don’t use most of the coupons. And the company bets on that, no matter what the *potential * value of the coupons is.
It’s the same with mail-in rebates. The promise of them can drive additional sales, but since 40-60% never get claimed, it’s just extra profits at the end of the day.
Any of those should have sunk a normal person’s political ambitions.
The fact that Trump somehow seems to be immune from the normal realities of society is frustrating.
He died in jail.
Maybe Trump could follow in his footsteps?
Unless this is a different interview than I heard, he refused to say that Trump and Vance were lying about it.
The R beside his name wouldn’t let him call them out directly.
Which means they’re not going to respect your local do not call lists.
But the fee is nominal and wouldn’t stop any predator from doing bad things if they are so inclined.
It might slow down people from doing it in bulk, though.
it would now look like anything and everything interests you

Personally, I’d rather not have any database think I was interested in certain topics, no matter how false that data is.

We knew he was a lying sack of shit back in the '80s before he got that stupid TV show.
AdNauseam quietly clicks on every blocked ad, registering a visit on ad networks’ databases
Do those clicks appear to be coming from me, or from some random fake identity?
False floods of data or not, there are some things I’d rather not have any identifiable contact with at all.
It happens in any country that has immigrants.
That combined with a lack of available housing are the answers I see most often.
I was about to say something similar.
I suspect that people in their target market not being made aware of it is part of the problem that is leading them to shut down.
Don’t bring that to their attention- they’ll start banning open source too.
I tried FreeBSD many years ago (back when I was on dialup and bought a book with the FreeBSD install CD included…).
At the time it was interesting to tinker with, and I did use it as a dual-boot on my Win95 computer, but I moved on to Linux when Knoppix came along.
At the time linux seemed more end user friendly.
Maybe I should spin up an install just for nostalgia sake, and to see where it’s at these days.
There’s a blast from the past.
Pretty much.
Just reverse this shape by a few months.
It’s also on the cusp of a major upgrade release, so good documentation of the latest version’s features will be in high demand very soon.
You learn enough about electronics to identify things that shouldn’t be in there, and then you open up and analyze your devices.
Alternatively, you could not become involved with an organization that is at war with a powerful country who has a capable spy/espionage agency.
