Beatings will continue until morale improves.

I’m convinced that’s some bs some bigwig invented to avoid admitting they’re wrong.

They’re being paid to get shit. It would be a disservice to them if you didn’t provide the shit.

Compared to Z2? Not according to the link they just provided.

If you don’t have a spare drive to copy the contents, how do you do backup?

Tax brackets are there for progressive taxation. Progressive income taxation is the most fair form of taxation. The least fair is consumption tax - such as sales tax.

Since we’re open sourcing your comment (🇨🇳 our comment, comrade), may I suggest you split the list? A lot of the services are things that can run on an SBC but OP already has extra computing power on a mini PC, so are likely better hosted there.
