If you do want to still use your personal phone and are on Android, use Shelter to make a Work profile and install Teams into that. Then it will install the Intune app just on your Work profile. You can turn work apps off with one button, and it gives your work zero access to your personal side of the phone.
You try the freezer trick? If not, put it in a plastic bag in the freezer for a few hours. The cold can make some things work a bit better and maybe for long enough to recover what you need. Doesn’t always work but it’s cheaper than professional data recovery.
2006, the year the PS3 came out. I asked for one and they were sold out everywhere. We were out shopping and I finally got my hands on a 20GB one, and my mom refused to buy it. She said she knew I had asked for the 60GB model and thought we’d find one eventually. I was devastated because I knew there was no way we’d find one anywhere before Christmas.
I woke up Christmas morning at like 2AM and opened the box over the tree, and it was a 60GB model. My parents had a friend the next state over who was able to find one, and they had already hidden it in the attic by the time I had found that 20GB one, so my mom had to make up excuses not to buy another one.
I plugged it in so it could start updating, then put it back in the box so I could “open” it in front of the family once everyone else was awake.
Ditto Boost. I have accounts on Lemmy and PieFed both on the same app.
Echoing what others have said, a “gaming distro” really isn’t necessary. I have used Ubuntu for years on and off. When I switched my gaming PC to Linux earlier this year I went with Kubuntu, because it’s just Ubuntu and I like KDE Plasma better than Gnome. I do feel like Ubuntu is one of the easiest to find support for when you’re looking online.
I use Abraham Linksys, even now that I’ve moved on from Linksys routers (mostly too lazy to update all my IoT devices).
My Gmail account has the Inactive Account Manager thing turned on so if I don’t use my account for 6 months it’ll email my wife my Bitwarden master password and instructions to get my self-host nerd into it where he can then do whatever he wants with it.
