Welcome ! Green and white. 4 rigs, on 4 different OS, you like some redundancy or risk. :D
Never enough monitor ! :D
Where do you had those thigh straps ? Do they hold the socks in place so they don't slide down?
The red wire is my headphone cable. Not battery involved, it's a simple stereo+microphone jack.
Yay, gg for degoogled your phone ! GrapheneOS user here, on Pixel 6a. For now, I didn't have any trouble, even though I'm a fairly advanced Android user.
Framework ones ? Yeah, the last AMD version. I didn't bought any laptop for more than a decade because the last one had GPU issues because of lack of BIOS update. (unusable on Linux or Windows after W10) So I used this laptop for server purpose (good CPU, RAM and ssd) but avoid laptops because dGPU (or overall upgrade) support wasn't guaranteed.
Self made. In fact, it's a long ankle-lenght skirt. Black cotton fabric with red wire for seams. (made with a 1930ish swewing machine) The red cable is my headset.
I turn it off. But yeah, telemitry is a subject. At least it's easy to disable. But yes, I understand the "u-word ewww". Even if I think it's an acceptable distro for "random people". (like grandpa's "one use per week for email" computer)
On the "U-word" from a decade, upgrading my main rig and switch it to Arch. Still use my laptop on Ubuntu tough. All with full disk encryption and stuff. Even a bulglar can't access to my data. Half a dozen off-camera servers on the right.
