It's BS solution and another "security by obscurity" theatre since laptops like Thinkpad X250 have 2 batteries, one internal and one external which is removable. This is another proof that this "security" doesn't work, and anyone willing can go around it.
This is the true reason that I feel like everybody are dancing around. Let's not lie to ourselves, hacking consoles in PS1, PS2 and DC era was for pirating games. Running unlicensed apps or linux was just a nice side effect of true goal. This days it's far less popular because of size, connectivity and prices of games.
I enjoy pretty budget Magicforce Smart 2 68. I'm using it for almost 6 years now and I'm on my 3rd keyboard. First I tried Outemu Blue switches, they was way to loud, shortly after I replaced them with Outemu Brown, which I used for I think 4 years until they started to fail registering clicks (I can't expect much from $40 keyboard), then I bought another one this time with backlit Gateron Browns and I like very much. For some reason the layout is just perfect for me and I'm still using keycaps from the second one because I didn't liked keycaps from backlit version. Text on keycaps is as it was when new, keycaps got a little bit shiny from typing (which I actually like), unfortunately they're turning a little bit yellow since I moved my desk very close to the window 2 years ago. Overall I can recommend it.
Maybe my lack of knowledge is playing a role here but this is why I'm not fan of pushing Wayland everywhere. It seem like X server works pretty nicely while I hear everywhere about performance and functionality issues with Wayland. Wayland supposed to be better solution but I don't understand how since it have so many flaws.
And it's not like it's under Linux or Windows where target hardware configuration is more or less unknown. Building both software and hardware by Apple supposed to be advantage of Macs.
Easier said than done. While I do have recruiters in my network specializing in work for my skill set, pretty much all of them have offers for full time jobs in a big projects.

Well two MiG-29 was actually "escorting" the plane to Minsk and there was KGB agents on board. I don't think crew had much to say. This was pure aircraft hijacking backed up by country (or two).
IMHO education plays huge role. More often people decide to go to collage, then have a career, people also learn what a huge effort have to be put into rising child. On top of that there is so many fantastic things that person can do and have to give up at least to some extend if having a baby. In my opinion those are huge factors. This is a reason why on average successful, well educated people tend to have less children even though they have all the resources to have a lot of them.
Well you still have easier and more difficult distros. You can go easy route and play with Ubuntu or Fedora but you can approach linux from the hard side and try Arch or Gentoo
Classic PC and even some laptops especially with open operating systems are still fantastic tool for learning and tinkering. There's just more options now for people that simply wants to consume media without thinking too much about everything else. PC enthusiast scene is getting bigger every year.
