This is probably why they called the cops, so they can fire them for an obvious cause and not have to deal with any questions.

I think it depends on the goal. If I'm trying to stop a corporation from doing something profitable a large union, one that contains most corpo workers, including the ones producing this profit, can strike, halting the production that generates this profit. The union could do this for a moral reason. If the union however contains for the sake of argument 1% of the workers and none of the ones doing the work in question, then staging a protest can't force a stop to the morally reprehensible production. It also makes this 1% an easy target to get rid of thus making it harder to organize more workers needed to stop production. So if I wanted to gain this power over the corpo, I would probably protest outside of union capacity.
E: They're already gone..
Am I being an idiot for thinking that protesting like this, when the union is relatively small is counterproductive? I'd think I'd want to represent the majority of the workers, then protest or outright strike which will halt the cloud operations they want to halt, if that's what the majority of union members vote to do.
Even that takes a while.

This is the core of markets and markets have existed long before capitalism.
Cool beans. KVM is one step away from fully replacing VirtualBox and VMware for desktop virtualisation - getting a Windows 3D driver for Virtio. For use cases that can get away without it, it's already there.
Have you tried secure-erasing a disk?
Absolutely yes, I do enctypt my drives so I don't have to ever do that again. This isn't as critical for SSDs but it's still a good idea. Even if you keep the key stored on the same system, securely deleting a tiny file is way easier than a whole disk.

Damn. Was gonna say Qt also uses web tech for rendering. 😔
Setup a standard issue tracker. The classic ones like Trac could be a bit limited but the newer, extended systems like OpenProject that try to compete with Jira can do anything. Taiga is also pretty good. OpenProject is very flexible and allows you to go from super simple to super complicated or anywhere in-between. Sprints, no sprints, kanban, whatever you want.
You might also want a wiki. DocuWiki and Wiki.js are !selfhosted favorites.
Plex or Jellyfin. I'm currently using Plex but will likely be migrating to Jellyfin at some point.
