  They e also flat out said it will be a long time before they even consider a 2nd version. Performance efficiency and battery tech need to make some leaps to make it practical.

  Steam Deck 2 isn’t coming for a long time. Steam Deck OLED is still more than viable.

  Most people are relying on income-driven repayment due to high interest rates and inflated tuition costs. IDR reduces your monthly payment to a fixed percentage of your income, but it does not scale the interest generated on the principle. The new SAVE plan was intended to scale the interest along with the monthly payment so your debt wouldn’t keep piling up due to being on IDR.

  Trump is removing all forms of IDR and blocking applications to renew existing plans, which means everyone will be forced to pay their full monthly amount (which is based on a 10 yr payoff plan). A lot of newer student loans are close to ~$100K or more, so imagine trying to pay that off in 10 yrs in the current job market.

  Prepare for mass defaults on loans. This is absolutely going to crash the economy, and will very likely be worse than the housing market crash in ~2009.

  I’m not a fan of Meta, but all of my international family rely heavily on WhatsApp.

  It also seems that Signal supports VoIP calling, but I have not tried it.

  I’ve seen another desperate option of hammering a screwdriver or a long punch through the can, and then twisting off with a pipe/cheater.

  Tin snips would be a better option if you just absolutely can’t get it off.

  Definitely. SmartTube is better designed for TVs , while ReVanced is better for touchscreens. Both integrate ad blocking, Sponsorblock, and a bunch of QoL features.

  If it can Firefox, you can add the UBlock Origin plugin

  I have many games I own on Steam that I can play portably from a flash drive without Steam. DRM is still on the developer.
