I watch videos and read articles and use LLMs to give me the key points to grasp the basics. Then build upon that knowledge with more focused learning.

I usually opt for 720p for movies and SD for shows. They're good enough for me and I can store way more. The other thing is the devices and screens are dated now so at some point in the future I'll probably want to get it all again at better quality but for now it does the job.

Not sure what works best in your case. I'm a Debian cat myself but I have been considering openbsd as a future option.

Thankfully this was discovered before hitting stable distros but I'm hoping it increases scrutiny across the board. We dodged a bullet on this one.

I use a real sounding name like luis.m.donovan1962@gmail.com

The more real it appears the harder it is to distinguish garbage data. Also a personal VPN with aguard home running. If I end up choosing a real existing email, well I'm just helping muddy the profile of someone else.

No shopping apps ever, loyalty cards in a fake name with email aliases to a central junk mailbox.

To hell with the lot of them and their business model.

They can profile the device and get hardware info depending on make and software etc but the gold is their app which sucks up everything including your phone number and what you visit on their network. I wouldn't dream of connecting without a vpn unless it was an emergency situation.

That being said data is always preferable when you have the option.
