Fine, Dad, you can have the upvote.

I'd say first define what you mean by moral (just to be sure we're all using the same framework).

Bigger picture: this is just a not-good scenario all around. It's intentionally choosing to be involved a messy, muddy situation, regardless of ethics or morality. Simple pragmatism is enough to steer clear of such situations.

No, it doesn't, or we wouldn't have all the reports of malware on phones.

It simply isn't possible for all those reports to be only from the tiny fraction of people who sideload.

Play protect has been around for what, ten years now, the play store has tons of malicious apps, yet people still get malware.

As a final thought, why is protection from malicious apps from the play store being performed on the phone instead of in the store?

Massgrave also has links to installation media, notably the LTSC versions. The IoT LTSC is especially nice since it lacks lots of the bloat.

Disconnect the network to force it to do local account creation.

First, let's clarify that when docs say a joint is arthritic, they usually mean it's showing signs of significant inflammation (osteoarthritis), which is a very different thing than Rheumatoid Arthritis - RA is an autoimmune disorder where the immune system is degrading normal tissue. If you haven't been diagnosed with RA, then they're referring to OA, or inflammation.

All of us have some osteoarthritis as we age, I we probably have varying levels of OA in different joints at any given time.

There's a phrase "motion is the lotion" - meaning keeping active is key to preventing joint issues.

Joints don't like inactivity, I'd guess largely because cartilage isn't vascular (it lacks a blood supply), so requires a different mechanism to keep it hydrated and fed. That occurs via motion: the action of moving a joint, applying pressure and releasing pressure, moves synovial fluid through cartilage, keeping it hydrated and flexible.

So keep moving.

I've never had it destroy a load of clothes. It's a tiny amount of mostly Vaseline.

It'll be quicker than MTP because it's actually reliably consistent, unlike MTP.

Since MTP is an unreliable hack, I've found using a "slow" wireless connection to work better.

"Ignorant" is a more generous term. They clearly haven't had a even a basic earth sciences or physics class.

Skydivers are only falling for about 5 minutes so the rotation underneath them is negligible.

Plus, like planes, they're flying - so aiming for a target (while their lift is far less than aircraft, they do have some, and can orient and direct themselves).

They're also in the atmosphere, which is rotating with the earth (part of why there are winds).
