Keep in mind that what you find painful, some people find fun :)

Check out the GPD Pocket/Mini PC lineup, they have pocket sized laptops that can run Linux. Not sure about water resistantce, think you can get some or all of their options with a cell network module.
You don't have to use any software from Proton VPN, they will allow you to download openvpn and wireguard config files so you can set up your own client. Takes some more effort to do it right, yes, but its a good option if you're up for it.
Ah, so I fell for reactionary bs assuming that a fairly well written article had good information? Dammit. =P Thanks for the info, that sounds a lot more plausible to me.
That is insane. Straight up blacklisting popular software because they don't want people to look too closely at what they purchased. It's amazing what the public is willing to accept, just such a constant stream of reports about bad behavior from companies that most people can't find the energy to care.
Either go with working through textbooks on your own, as has been stated by others, but that approach requires tons of discipline as the subject matter can get quite dry and frustrating at times. Or, I'd say ideally, enroll in courses at a local community college. The one I went to had four calculus classes, linear algebra and differential equations, along with statistics and I believe some kind of math programming course (my have just been part of other classes). So you cab get into fairly advanced stuff going that route.
If you want to learn even more after that, you'll have a solid basis to continue self study. Hell, you might even have a good start towards a bachelor's in math.
Yes! It is beautiful and easy to work with, very much my tool of choice for coding.
Swap space is good to have, but a swap file is more convenient than a swap partition
Nice topic. Haven't tried it in a month or three and detection methods change, but after trying several things here is the XML that seemed to help:
Edit: Wow. Preview was perfect, but posting nuked my XML snippets. I found the smbios tag with vendor information useful, along with the kvm tag under features, with a hidden tag set to on.
Awesome :) I think I shall set this up in Termux later for one more on the go music option.
