Just buy a small, industrial CT scanner and scan your device. Compare the results to a device that you know hasn’t been tampered with.

My GOG games run great on wine, it just takes a bit more work to install them. Wine has better support for early windows games than windows does now.
If they use a good, 12X bluray drive, it will be quicker to install from a disk than to download it unless you’re lucky enough to have a good fiber internet connection. Even then, the servers you download from will often be overloaded and slow on release day.
Sure, you can still own digital media, but you can’t sell or trade it like you can with a physical copy.
BSD works great on my firewall, but I’m certainly not going to run it on my desktop. The hardware and software support just isn’t there yet.
Used cars are going to get much more valuable with all the enshitified crap they keep putting in new cars.
The easiest way to get lossless music is to buy a CD and rip it. Of course you can always sail the high seas too. 🏴☠️
It’s emmitting radio signals that an enemy could use to help locate the ship.
That sounds like a good way to get rid of most of the users too.
I’m surprised they didn’t put a time limit on the storage since they are not a file hosting platform.
They are probably failing to get enough users, so they will attempt to squeeze as much money from their existing users as they can before they go under.
There is potting compound with high thermal conductivity for things that produce a lot of heat. A YubiKey hardly uses any power, so heat should not be an issue.
The main downsides of potting are that it makes repair practically impossible and it can add a lot of weight if there is a large volume to be filled.
Encasing the circuit board in epoxy. It makes it very difficult to access components without destroying it. It’s also great for water proofing and increasing the mechanical robustness.
For the price they charge, they should be made so that opening the case will destroy the contents. They could have at least potted them.
They can shut down the ground stations in Brazil, but they can’t block the laser links. They could also try to jam the signals, but SpaceX now has years of experience working around jamming in a war zone.
Recent versions of Android make it much more difficult for a background app to access the microphone. There will be a notification if any background app is using the mic or camera.
The windows uninstaller is in the Linux ISO.
Sure it can, you just uninstall the entire OS and replace it with Linux.
I would be worried about water getting into the voids in the infill. You would probably have to fiberglass it to make it actually usable.
That’s why it’s a good idea to take a btrfs snapshot before updating or changing things. Snapshots are almost instant and sure save a lot of work if you break something.
