Absolutely and without question yes

Jellyfin can handle the transcoding to AV1 where needed. Albeit that's a bit less ideal than direct play as you need the hardware to transcode.
plex/jellyfin etc high quality video support
H265 isn't the only option there. AV1 is great and fully supported by Jellyfin (and I imagine Plex?)
Apple TV has been reliable for many years. Don't even have an iPhone or iPad anymore but the OS gets the fuck outta the way and it probably has the least spyware of all the commercial options.
Building your own with like, a Pi or a PC is the best option if you mainly have pirated content.... If you stream anything that option isn't great because your device won't pass all the DRM checks to play higher definition/4k stuff. (Someone correct me but last I looked into it this was still true)
I would just do a minimal reinstall if you had used this as a personal computer OS before
And also take the battery out
The screens are pretty fragile, however they're protected when folded. Just don't drop them onto anything while open....
Other than that they're surprisingly robust. I've had 2 Moto Razr models and a Samsung Z Fold. First Razr did break the screen by leaving it open in a stupidly precarious position and it hit a piece of metal below directly on the folding screen when it fell. But day to day use I never worried about it.
In the US there's basically no legal requirements for paid leave so there's also little to no protection for it
Now?
Now?
They are and always have been. Since their inception as part of a terrorist, settler state.
7.09 global but I do have a few files with over a 30 ratio
With a traditional download, examplesite.com sends a file to your computer, that's it.
With torrents, instead of that you download little pieces of the file from many different computers. Sometimes hundreds of different computers. Then once you've downloaded the file you can then start sharing pieces to other people downloading. The more people doing this, the faster the downloads will be for everyone else and the less strain it will put on each computer's Internet connection.
Also if not many people are seeding, there's a danger that the file will have 0 seeders and nobody can download it at all.
This is also why torrenting is good for privacy. Shutting down one website isn't so hard. Shutting down hundreds of random personally owned computers is very hard.
If it's a personal machine in which you have a choice on browser why not just use one of the native Jellyfin apps?
Every other major browser is an overcommercialized pile of crap (or built atop the same) that can afford to pay for the licenses to use HEVC or has no qualms shipping proprietary code with their software that they don't control.
Also apparently on Windows you can enable experimental HEVC hardware decoding support. You'll need to install "HEVC Video Extensions" (from Microsoft themselves) ($0.99) in the Windows App Store and toggle "media.wmf.hevc.enabled" in about:config.
