I don't know if this is a US thing. I have no large expectations of HR, but I'm also part of a union and like most places my company has signed a collective union agreement. If there's a conflict the union will represent you as well. The HR people at my company seem completely OK though, I have dealings with them due to my role.

The answers in this thread are all over, but it's towards this direction I'm leaning

I think it's been proven that Google doesn't listen in to your conversations. While there are a lot of real privacy issues, the microphone theory is just conspiracy fear-mongering

I'd wager he means something like the fediverse, reddit, various microblogging sites. There are plenty sharing experiences working for Google, Apple and what not.

Awesome. Sounds like you made the same journey. Right now it feels like I might ditch the dual boot too in a near future.

I use Proton for Steam games. You can enable it in Steam settings, just run it via Steam afterwards. For games purchased via GOG, I use Heroic Launcher which uses a variant of Wine.

I saw a comment expressing this ruling is only applicable to e-books where there already exists an e-book from the publisher, and that it won't affect media preservation or books that have been scanned (e.g., old textbooks) and that do not have an e-book. Is this true? If so, it's not all bad.

This isn't possible. You can only see people who viewed your stories.

It's generally really hard if you have no experience. But if you're willing to pay, maybe. Check this out: https://hitchwiki.org/en/Hitchhiking_a_boat

And wasn't that what we were promised by capitalism? That we could own our land, our homes and our lives. But even that, they're turning back on, except for the privileged few. Back to feudalism it is.

Chick-fil-a starting a streaming service sounds like the worst idea ever.
