EU fines take way longer then that, give it a couple years of data collection and if we're lucky they get fined

Works great until some hikers take a photo with you in the background, that gets backed up to iCloud, then they want to show the photo to a friend, download it to their computer, open it and BOOM, Microsoft AI knows your face

As someone working with both VoIP and Fax, all I can say is that both are horrible, and expect the worst from each when putting those 2 things together.

Since my work is a large org (they still use fax officially) I mostly work with enterprise software from Cisco, Oracle, etc. so I cannot help here in detail, start learning about SIP (abd RTP if you want to handle calls too) with FreePBX. There is a Fax plugin for FreePBX: https://github.com/FreePBX/fax but I could not find any documentation so far.

The world would be great if we started developing new digital solutions to analog problems instead of forcing the digital replacement to mimic its analog original

You don't technically need a package manager though. It's just a convenience layer.

Probably still for some time. I have a laptop with a NVIDIA Optimus 1050ti from 2016 or so and it's still going strong 8 years later. It starts getting a bit tricky (but not impossible) at 10+ years old cards

dom0 is the administration qube which handles the graphical desktop, i/o and hardware devices. So if you're installing dodgy software in dom0 you go around a lot of the sandboxing that qubes offers.

I recently bought a Pixel 8 for 500€, they got cheaper since the Pixel 9 was just released. If you want to save some money you could probably just buy a Pixel 7a which will get updates until May 2028 (vs October 2030 for the Pixel 8). Supposedly the 7 has better battery life than the 8, but in the end it comes down to how long you want to use it.

I've been selfhosting Gitea for years now and it's great, but I also don't really collaborate with anyone else so YMMV. Originally I wanted to go with GitLab utb it's too resource intensive for my use case

+1 for RDR2. Probably the best game I've ever played, made me cry several times. 10/10

This is RedHat Linux 6.1, it was EOL way before RedHat Enterprise Linux 6 came around
