The reason for this I heard by Microsoft was to stop having to explain to non technical people that Azure AD doesn't have feature parity with a real Active Directory.

As someone using both equally often, I am kind of certain Android passes through the raw sensor readings while iOS has some form of debounce delay and guesstimation implemented. Both are equally often off in their readings. But that's just based on usage experience, not a hard fact.

I don't recall the exact context anymore but during the Microsoft Build this year it was said by an employee at Github that the service came with the acquisition which is the reason it was and stays C#.

Zerotier maxes out based on the model since it's single core. On a ac3 around 20Mbps is the cap. With wireguard I max out at 300Mbps. I can't test openvpn since mikrotik doesn't support tls auth. IPsec was always my given linespeed.

Beware that you need fasttrack exclusion rules (via connection mark e.g.) for each vpn interface except zerotier.

Those keybinds are mainly custom macros and scripts.

Some project specific some more general. The project specific keybinds range from do test deployment and run tests to grab the latest test results format a text variant as well as pdf, archive and send them out to everyone who needs them. The general ones range from tell my AC/heating that I'm heading home from office to open my local weather forcast on Screen #2.

IMO there's no good reason to omit possibilities for aesthetics. Though as often as I thought about it I am not going to use a stream deck since I know I couldn't live without one after a few weeks and don't want to be bothered to carry it with me while traveling.

Well the problem arises if you use more than a few shortcuts.

If you start having keybinds like ALT + CMD + (F1..F6) you _really_ dont want to have to press an additional FN Keys. I found 4 key shortcuts not viable in the long run if you have to press them multiple times a minute.

With that said:

So for me personally it's a number of advantages without a single drawback

The objective drawback is the expandability of your shortcuts because you are artificially limited in your options of key combinations. For me that would be a no go. Though I am close to 500 shortcuts in my 3 main applications alone, excluding i3 or KDE globals. I only use a mouse to browse the web.

It's not a scam. Those scenes live by reputation alone. If you need something as a once in a lifetime service you are well advised to use a trusted third party within the scene. Those are either trade mods or well known veterans.

If you become familiar and known in the scene the risk of being scammed is very low and if it happens it's more like a "one last money grab and I am done thing" where the person offering the service will disappear. But since this works once per online persona this really doesn't happen that often.

Obviously you can get work done with it, I also can imagine that getting accustomed to a type and think about it approach while taking a breath might be worth the ability to preserve states. For me preserving states across devices/locations has been solved 10 years ago, though nowadays in extreme situations I just don't do any work if it's not my device. I won't enter any credentials on a device that's not mine or hasn't been in my physical control since being setup. I'd rather fly home. Nothing we do is that important.

For me a low latency is the single most important thing when using a computer. Having 1000hz input device rate on the mice, proper NVMe SSD and 144hz/240hz Display rate makes all the difference of a decent computer experience.

Nothing about your post adds up.

2015 MB i7 to i9 MB doesn't increase anything times 4.

How long have you been working on that task and waited an hour? The wasted labour cost might have bought you a dedicated compiling rack 2 weeks in.

How long could you have rented cloud ressources to bring that task down to close to instant for the cost of a i9 MB?

I am just curious tbh. I have various tasks like yours hobbywise. But the least thing I'd encourage my laptop to do is compile/render/analyse a problem that takes more than 60 seconds. Beware if you fully utilise a laptop like you describe shouldn't it become useless for everything else while doing that?

So much questions...

But sid isn't referred to as an experimental release. The experimental release is more or less an voluntary option for the devs to use or not.

Some packages/developers don't use experimental, they just put the new versions in unstable

You forgot to mention the choice between bad peering vs a high jitter direct connect. Two vlans on the same cable doesn't equal redundancy, two cables along the same geographical site neither.
