I don't know what formal education you got but after 15 years in the industry, having learned, worked and taught colleagues in most major areas, I have yet to observe anything as efficient at learning as my university's CS program.

In my anecdata (TO), all the sysadmins I know have a CS degree. I don't know many. Personally I haven't professionally been a sysadmin per se but I've done cloud infrastructure design, development and maintenance at scale and I do have a CS degree. A CS degree from a good school teaches a lot. Not so easy to get these days with the higher prices of everything.
So I suggest you keep using windows, switch all your apps to open or closed source software that is available on linux. Learn them, use them and if you are in a pinch and need to use your windows only software it will still be there. Once you are at a point where you never use the windows only software you can then think of switching over to linux.
This is what I did in the 2000s. At one point I used all open-source software and my Windows was themed like GNOME. One sunny day Wine got fixed for Warcraft TFT. And then I switched to Ubuntu 5.04. With that said, today with the current hardware and software, lots more is palatable to run in a Windows VM. My wife has used MS Office and Adobe software in VMware Player for a decade now. Recently switched her to virt-manager. It's just damn reassuring to know you can run pretty much all non-graphics intensive Windows workloads on demand. Even interfacing with pretty much any USB hardware, which is important for dealing with various arcane hardware.
That should be covered under warranty. If not, you could take the rivet out, straighten that plastic bit and glue it to the metal using super glue. It should hold well. Of course take all the electronics out of the way if you do this. As in remove them.
You can probably hack the input system. That'd probably be somewhere in libinput. If there's no configuration for something like this you could apt-src libinput, hack it, recompile and replace the existing libinput. ๐
Actually this isn't the pwn you think it is because funding results in favors and control. Remember the OpenAI non-profit and Microsoft? You want it to be funded by more than Alphabet. Ideally you want Alphabet's funding share to not be the largest at all. You want government funding too.
Spin off the Android team into a nonprofit. I'm pretty sure OEMs would be all over funding that.
Oh nice. I think that all of those are possible with ZFS too. Although I'm pretty sure that the snapshot-boot is done outside of ZFS itself. As in, there's something else that takes the snapshots and makes them available to the bootloader. I think zsys used to do that in the experimental ZFS-on-root support that shipped in Ubuntu 20.04. I recall having a snapshot appear before every update and those snapshots were selectable from GRUB.
Well Ubuntu is the most popular distro and it supports it out of the box. It's had experimental ZFS-on-root support since 2020. Unfortunately it needs more work to be to be promoted from experimental status. But yeah, I don't know of any other diatros supporting it on root out of the box. Which is sad.
Cat 5e does 2.5Gb. Getting higher spec cables might increase the probability of them being well made to spec but other than that, what you really need is good quality cables, Cat 5e or otherwise.
Well if it can't do the spec, then it's not Cat 5e is it. ๐
Has anyone compared its page archiving feature to ArchiveBox?
