Don't underestimate the relief of a clean ending. The author isn't in a good place, it won't do him any favors to leave it up. He clearly wants to put this chapter of his life behind him.

Ubuntu isn't really on the cutting edge, so I'm not sure how well its going to work. Opensuse tumbleweed is running pretty much the latest everything, so its possible youll need to wait until the next Ubuntu lts

It's disappointing to see so many commentors arguing against you wanting to do this. Windows has it through bitlocker which is secured via the TPM as you know. Yes it can be bypassed, but it's all about your threat level and effort into mitigating it.

I am currently using a TPM on my opensuse tumbleweed machine to auto unencrypt my drive during boot. What you want to do is possible, but not widely supported (yet). Unfortunately, the best I can do is point you to the section in the opensuse wiki that worked for me.

https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Encrypted_root_file_system

If you scroll down on that page you'll see the section about TPM support. I don't know how well it will play with your OS. As always, back up all your files before messing with hard drive encryption. Best of luck!

The "real" way needs the corresponding Wayland protocol in order to work. The protocol is under development/review, but involves a lot more moving parts that requires coordination and approval from multiple people. This "fake" way was able to be implemented faster and by fewer people as a stop-gap measure

Pill cutters are situationally easier for the elderly to use. They're portable, don't require a cutting surface, and generally have guards along the blade making it safer than a knife.

What works for me is snapping it while my fingernail is in the groove. Gives a clean break down the center like every time.

Theres no such thing as "real stainless". Stainless steel 304 is corrosion resistant, it's the cheapest and most common. 316 is better at corrosion resistance and is "marine grade" since it will hold up better to salt water. 316L is some of the best at resisting corrosion, it's more expensive than 304 and is used in lab and surgical equipment. There are a lot of other types, like 309 for higher heat applications, etc.

Cybertruck is probably made from 304.

Definately not supprised that cybertrucks are having this issue. Especially with road salt in the winter. I'm sure the engineers at Tesla saw this coming too.

I have a oneplus 6t that I bought renewed from amazon. Accidently ordered two and never returned the second one (shipping snaffu, long story). I can give you a decent price on it if you want

The models are getting imposible to repair. Everything is plastic and isn't designed to be taken apart. It's lenovos fault, their build quality is crap across the line. Of all the computers I've fixed (which is a lot), lenovos are by far the worst to deal with

You're comparing a microcontroller to a purpose built device. Its apples and oranges.

There are add ons to the flipper that incoporate an esp running maurader firmware for wifi tools
