Pretty sure GrapheneOS isn't. Though I would expect most "tinker ROMs" to be userdebug though.

Correct. That's the currently maintained paperless project.

It implies that it's based on WINE 9.0 and its feature/bug set.

Updated file distribution method to save disk space.

Does this mean it's using reflinks now?

Yeah, I was expecting something like "Yeah, this is an issue, we know. It's that way because we had to make a trade-off to enable ..." but it was mostly just lame excuses or just talking about something entirely unrelated to the point being made.

Like the thickness of the device and bezels. Just accept it, the FP is thicc. It's a conscious trade-off you made. Be open about it. Don't whine about measuring with the camera bump included (if anything, measuring from the bump gives the FP an advantage since its bump isn't as thic as others?). If the bezels are a little thicker than the competition, just state why that is (i.e. to make it easier to replace).

Had to stop watching after that or I would have died of cringe.

Don't re-encode lossy formats.

What do you mean by "save" as in "copy the file to the encrypted container" or "open the file in a picture editor and saving it"? The former won't re-encode, the latter likely will.

Renaming a file won't change its content and therefore won't change its format.

If the pictures are important to you, make sure they're backed up appropriately. For even remotely critical data, the rule of thumb is 3 copies across two different mediums with at least one copy at a different location.

Re-encoding MP3s will also degrade quality. Storing them in a ZIP file won't re-encode them though.
Transcoding an MP3 to m4a will degrade its quality too. The opposite is also true; if you're downloading music from Youtube for instance (M4A, OGG), don't convert it to MP3.

The discriminator here is whether lossy compression is applied which is distinct from lossless compression. As the name implies, it loses information in the process.
JPG, MP3, M4A, OGG and many other common formats use lossy compression.
ZIP and PNG use lossless compression; files added to a ZIP file can always be turned to the exact same files again from an encoding standpoint.

Might be the included bag, different saddle and S handle bar not being an option with the lower. Probably the latter since it's "from" and handle bar is about the only thing you can customise at checkout.

Also: Since when does the Explore no longer come with dynamo light and luggage rack? Those are quite important features for me, so I'd recommend spending a few more minutes and a few hundred quid into getting them.

The GDRP explicitly only applies to "personal data"

  1. This Regulation lays down rules relating to the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and rules relating to the free movement of personal data.

which it defines as follows:

‘personal data’ means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (‘data subject’); an identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person

Please provide a quote where the GDPR says that it applies to anything but "personal data".

Your PII isn't being sold here and you gave Reddit an irrevocable license to your content, so being in the EU doesn't matter.

Guess what data they're trained on...

You should look up what those values even mean. Not all values that HDDs expose via SMART are related to actual critical errors or even properly interpreted by your tools.

Seek and read error rates are always high and grow quickly on Seagate drives. I don't know what part isn't doing its job properly but high values here don't mean anything of significance.
