Sure can!

Most of the back and forth is predicated on the idea that the digital world works the same as the digital one. It does not!

In the physical world you cannot produce and exact copy of something for zero dollars.

In the digital world you can make many copies at effectively zero cost.

Stealing, theft, is predicated on taking something from someone so they no longer have it.

Making a digital copy does not steal or remove access.

The whole argument, which I would posit is deeply flawed, is that pirating removes imaginary potential profits for reselling the thing copied (not stolen). If that's so then prove it. Prove that at some point in the future I, or any other given person, would have bought that digital thing. Unless you've invented time travel you just can't.

Copying digital content isn't theft and pirating isn't the right thing to call it.

We have to figure out how to better frame or address the digital world that just fundamentally doesn't operate the same as the physical one.

Hole up! Doesn't the existence of clothing imply nudity? Covering the nudity is what clothing is for! I feel like they hadn't thought that through all the way.

Not sure what windows apps you're using but in my 20+ years IT that has absolutely, in most situations, not been the case.

Canadian Federal Government? So Britain then? /S

I think part of this that I'm not seeing talked about, and perhaps confused for "more tech savvy users", is just the user hostility of Windows.

9 times out of 10 when a Linux app or game crashes I get a verbose error and more often than not one that I can simply copy and paste.

9 times out of 10 when Windows, or much of windows software, crashes it gives some random number or code and in a window I can't even copy and paste out of.

My skill level doesn't change. Linux just isn't user hostile in nature making it easy to search for fixes and report issues. Where as on windows I can't summon the care or effort to manually transcribe the error so I can then do something with it.

Not if you install Firefox from Flatpak. ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ

Flatpak steam can do all that. You just have to learn to control the flatpak sandbox. There are CLI commands of course or you can install Flatseal which is a real nice gui that lets you control the sandbox for each individual flatpak app. https://flathub.org/apps/com.github.tchx84.Flatseal

Just add whatever drive/directory/mount point in the filesystem path for Steam in flatseal and Steam can see it.

As the saying goes "If you're not paying for the product you are the product."

I've been using Fastmail for years now. Worth every penny. Doesn't even come with "extras" other than a little webdav storage space.

Most email providers have free tiers. Try them!Find the one that works best for you. Pay for that.

Those two things aren't mutually exclusive. You can just stop using Gmail and still maintain a Google account to use with oauth providers.

Your mistake here is in assuming removing DRM isn't trivial. As someone who's pirated games for literal decades I have enjoyed many a DRMed game on launch day. DRM is security theater just like the chumps at the airport who routinely are found to be missing 99% of contraband.

Best Buy does this all for you for $80, assuming the person is in the US. I expect this is available most places for similar prices though. You can get anything from a BT only unit for $20 online to a much nicer unit with Android Auto/iOS's thing. While the initial cost might be higher the opportunity cost of your thing being disabled is almost certainly much higher, as this thread's existence seems to support. $150-$200 well worth it in the long run to do a head unit upgrade.
