in the u.s. iirc usps gets your valid government id and home address when you rent a box at a post office, as does contacted private providers (e.g. ups store, etc) if you go that route. they are not 'private' or anonymous, just potentially more 'secure' in that your mail and parcels won't be left outside your door or in an accessible and unsecured mailbox.

pretty much all that's left is to shut down the 'apps' that are still branded 'freevee' and don't require a sign-in or account to use (unlike the prime video app the former imdb and freevee free content will still be available in). that's what i'll miss, a way to watch the few things it had without tying a viewing device to an azn account.

bios probably defaulted to using a storage mode (like 'raid' or intel's rst) that requires 'f6' drivers loaded during windows setup. solution would have been to either find those drivers or switch bios to 'normal' ahci mode.
'work' just replaced 'school'. same restrictions usually apply, just with the "i'm an adult" modifier that lets you deviate with some degree of risk to your paycheck.

i have an email account that i'm not receiving valid 2fa emails which are sent to me. to add the sender email address(es) to a white list in order to bypass server-side mail filters (which are blocking these emails from reaching my inbox), i have to pay and subscribe to unlock the feature.
at the one service i care about, to change its email to a different email address, i have to be able to receive those 2fa emails and validate a code to authorize the change.
