I do not understand your question. If you surf the web you should use a vpn. No matter your location. Some locations ask for vpn usage more than others.

Thanks for your reply! Very helpful. The image I grabbed from the offial docs here: https://btrfs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/mkfs.btrfs.html#mkfs-section-profiles
I'll do some testing with raid 1 to see if it behaves as I expect. The only way to be properly sure i guess.
Use configuration as code. Ansible, puppet, salt, nix or something else. Debian is nice but its a diy ubuntu. You appreciate the effort cononical puts in to take away the rough edges on places. Using debian allows you to craft the OS you want from scratch, which is great! Just make sure you don't have to redo work if your system dies at some point.
I use open dyslexia as I have dyslexia. Its very nice!
Back when I smoked and was an unexperienced driver, I was having a cig in my car. I stuck it out of the window to tap off the ash and I drifted off of the road with my right side tires. Instead of slowly moving back I jamked the wheel and almost had a head to head collision with traffic in the oncomming lane. Escaped death by half a meter.
I do regularly. I used it a lot and I think knowledge should be free.
Hey thanks for the rant! Very informative. I agree that one should know the fundamentals and not just focus on the cert. I need the cert for my career though. As I always say: Certs are for managers. Any half decent technical knowledgable interviewer will suss out if you know your stuff.
I'm doing microtik training in the autumn to get my network knowledge up. (Why do cisco if networks have standardization). I need the study guides or other resources because they ask about commands I rarely use, or if I use them its only one or two specific commands (i.e. i use ip addr but rarely ip link or ip netns. But having the RHCSA/E checkmarks next to your name does wonders for your marketability. ($€₱£¥ ;-))
I'll drop you a dm for that copy.
Its sad but linux is still a second class citizen. Nvidea drivers have improved greatly over the years, but it can be still flaky especially newer ones.
Multi moniter support too, it has a history troubled with challenges. Its much much better than it used to be but sometimes there are setups and usecases which have problems. It used to be multiple monitors, just having them as a desktop, was impossible. Nowaday I can daily drive Linux and expect to have a good desktop experience across multiple monitors.
Mindyou, every windows update its a dieroll what breaks for my work surface labtop. Often my display or dock behaviour breaks or my bluetooth, or my networking. Not to excuse the bugs in linux, but to show that even MS on their own hardware have bugs like that. Pcs are hard and even MS can't do it flawlessly.
What you describe as simple multimonitor RDP might actually be a very complex task from a technology and display standpoint.
That being said, it totally sucks having a usecase and finding out that for you have problems getting there. I agree that Linux still has major hurdles for general adoption, (although again, it is so much better than it used to be). Look at it this way: if desktop linux had the same amount of money and development time thrown at it as Windows or MacOS, we'd have a very different experience.
As for tips. I recommend to dualboot. Use MS for your usecases that are not a good experience and use Linux for the other things. Keep checking in with the multiple RDP tech/workflow to see if it works. I did the same thing for years. The only reason I used windows was my games. For other things I used Linux and learned my way around the desktop while doing that. Eventually Proton came along and I could switch entirely.
