There are plenty of PC laptops with drives that aren't easy to upgrade, it ain't just MacBooks anymore.

LOL that's not a bad way of explaining it. My reasoning is that I like CloudFlare, so I'll default to them, but if CF goes down I want DNS to continue working. I figure Google is one of the servers that's LEAST likely to go down.
I do CloudFlare first and Google as backup.
There are lots of resources for the different Ender 3 models online, its design is open source after all.

Looks like both of those say you need an M5x45 screw. That is, an M5 sized screw that's 45mm long: https://www.amazon.com/iExcell-Thread-Socket-Screws-Finish/dp/B08S7FLZ1D
And they're also both saying that each screw comes with a spring washer, to keep tension on the gantry: https://www.amazon.com/uxcell-Stainless-Spring-Washers-Gasket/dp/B0152FRDFM/
But first, I would check the ends of the gantry arms to make sure the screws weren't just stuck in there for safekeeping.
EDIT: to be more specific, the BOTTOM of the gantry is held by M5x45, but the TOP of the gantry is M5x25.
Lmao what the hell kind of response is this? Looks like AI generated nonsense with spelling mistakes.
How bad is your upload speed? Most of my x264 and x265 encodes have a total bitrate of around 1.5-2 Mbps. You can't stream that without transcoding?
Also, have you LOOKED at transcode quality from the other side? It looks TERRIBLE, and it doesn't significantly reduce your bitrate. I'm telling you, whatever math Plex does to decide whether or not to transcode is USELESS. I've seen it transcode x264 videos (that definitely didn't need to be transcoded) and send them to friends at a HIGHER bitrate, it's legit insane.
Do what works for you, but Plex transcoding is a bad "feature" that should be avoided at all costs.
EDIT: I'm far from the only one noticing this, the common wisdom is that Plex clients are telling your server to transcode, even when it's not necessary, and there's not much you can do about it other than fully turning transcoding off.

Either that or a small power surge happened. Or the battery was defective. There are multiple things that could blow that fuse, and having a blanket "blown fuse = voided warranty" policy is stupid.

Looks like Google has a relatively complete guide there. It sounds like they expect you to "own" your kid's account with their Family Link feature before adding the school account, not sure if that's required for this to work or not. But it doesn't seem like a bad idea.
Oh yeah, to be clear I'm using Ortholinear QWERTY. I just call it ortho because I'm lazy.
That's pretty shitty. They're probably talking internally about the fuse as if it's some type of tamper seal. But fuses blow sometimes, they're literally sacrificial. So somebody has told their support techs that anyone with that fuse blown has tampered with their battery and they're just repeating that line to customers (some guilt of tampering, some innocent).
Or maybe you just got unlucky with a dumb support tech. If that's widespread, they deserve to get sued.
All of your mobile traffic goes through your carrier. Assume that none of it is private, unless you're taking privacy measures like a trusted VPN.
I don't see how an eSIM is any worse than a SIM.
