Generally toyotapartsdeal.com because their prices are pretty good.

For generic non-OEM stuff I almost always use rockauto

Gotcha, in that case maybe a container? You can use a bind mount to link a folder on the host to inside the container. You could use docker/podman or LXC.

Does rclone support the cloud service?

Yes there’s always a chance corruption can happen from a hard power off, always keep reliable backups.

Have you tried wiping the phone and being careful about what apps you install?

The camera specifically says it was accessed by the camera app which seems perfectly normal. The microphone being unknown is odd.

You can’t get notifications while offline, so that sounds more like a bug of some kind in an app you have installed maybe?

I use https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/431970-fb-clean-my-feeds for facebook.

uBlock Origin with various annoyances filters enabled takes care of a ton of stuff as well.

If they’re not portable how would I for example login to an account while on my Desktop, if I set up the passkey on my Phone?

Pixel 7a is pretty good. Cheap too now that they’re 2 generations old, around $330 new for an unlocked phone.

I think looking at business/enterprise models would give you the best luck, as some of them should use a PCIe Wifi/BT card so it can be easily upgraded, and you would be able to remove that.

Notebookcheck.net often has images of a teardown in their reviews where you can see if it has a removable wireless card.

Sounds like maybe a faulty battery failing early, it should be under warranty I’d imagine if it has only been a few months?

The battery health indicator could be wrong, does it still run as long as it used to?

They generally all connect over Bluetooth so should work just fine.

The only sticking point may be if Linux doesn’t have the proper codecs like aptX or LDAC (and the earbuds support them) you won’t get as high quality audio as you should.

Can you restore a backup image? Sometimes that’s easier to roll back a day rather than spend all the time trying to troubleshoot.

This speadsheet desperately needs the first column and row anchored, it’s unreadable as is because you can’t see what you’re looking at.

As far as users go, add the features people are used to from Telegram and other messengers, and make it just as easy to use and it’ll probably start pulling in more people. A big one IMO is good discoverability; like an easy to remember username that I can share, and ability to pull in my contacts and automatically add people who are already on it. As well as good group chat and channel support with good moderation tools.

Some things would be easy to improve on too, Telegrams sticker packs for example are a bit of a pain to update, so adding that feature but making it better would be nice.

Also easy sync to other devices without needing to manually backup/restore chats would be a huge plus for any of the alternative messenger apps.

Hotspots won’t hurt anything unless they get too hot and damage the coating on the windings, I would assume the manufacturer is aware of that and designed the startup current so it’s safe.

Yup, would probably get more people to join by just using Discord at this point.

Car engines have connecting rods and all kinds of extreme side forces on bearings that get stressed under high load. Brushless motors do not have any of those things, just a rotational bearing that doesn’t experience any more load on startup vs constant speed.

The motors are brushless, so no wear happens during spin-up from the extra current other than a little more heat for a few seconds.

HDMI should auto-detect the best supported output automatically, is it not doing that?

Maybe Intel AMT running? I’m not sure it can be disabled though.
