People who micromanage, either directed at me or someone else

That's a huntsman. Not dangerous to you

No, unless the game you're playing is trying to download ads then you might have some minor issues but it shouldn't effect online multiplayer.

I've used AirVPN for this exact setup and it works great. The port forwarding is static and doesn't change once setup. I switched to proton because it was convenient, I was already paying for ProtonMail et all, so I dropped the extra VPN subscription when it renewed.

League of Legends by far has the most toxic community I've ever encountered. I left in the middle of a match due to toxic players and got a temp ban. Never went back.

I use restic with a wrapper script to automate it on all of my machines. The backend storage can be anything that speaks S3, so B2, or iDrive would both work. I currently use Storj for my backend. It's globally distributed storage, so no single point of failure geographically and it's cheap. Backblaze is also a great company, but I've grown a little skeptical since they went public.

As others have pointed out, just get a VPN and run your torrents through that. I've used AirVPN and ProtonVPN. Both are P2P friendly and even offer inbound port forwarding. It would be easier to setup and likely cheaper too. Proton is incorporated in Switzerland and has servers all over the world.

I've used llama3 to help me rewrite my ancient CV and gotten good results so far. I took what it suggested and changed things myself to make a bit more sense. I also use it to summarize things occasionally but that's about it.

Technically any charging of a Lithium battery is "bad" for its health. Batteries are usually rated for a certain number if charge cycles from the manufacturer and after that number of cycles will start to lose capacity. The best advise I've seen regarding battery health is to keep it from charging to %100 everytime. As others have stated, the charging speed can also have an impact as it creates heat and heat will also wear out the battery.

As for your specific device it seems like it's consuming more power than the charger is giving it, so even when plugged in and turned on it may be discharging the battery still as it's not getting enough power. Either you buy a new charger that can put out more power or you turn it off while charging it. Either case shouldn't be bad for the battery health.
