So in the vein of no stupid questions I’m going to ask you a stupid question. It sounds like you didn’t particularly value the relationships you used to have with your “friends in law”. Do you actually want to meet people to build friendships with, or do you feel socially pressured to do so? I’m here to remind you that you’re not required. A preference for solitude is perfectly fine.

Maybe you don’t have that preference in which case others have written up some good advice, but don’t feel guilt. Maybe getting to know yourself for a while is a good thing. It’ll make any attempts at bonding with others in the future easier and more rewarding.

Sure, but you can ban imports and make them illegal to own just like any other thing. You can't prevent all crime but that's no reason not to try.

Yeah the new interface has restrictions it doesn’t tell you about until you try to apply new settings.

I think it’s worth considering banning that type of battery, but a whole category of vehicles? There could be good reasons to ban the whole category as well but then state that, instead of making up some shit about batteries.

There is a list of people I expect to be there. If the most heinous examples of total pieces of shit known to humanity are not in hell then the term is meaningless. Not that there is any evidence to support its existence.

As a sysadmin I would try making the PC’s hypervisors and syncing a VM? Might be over engineered but I think it would work.

Really, games run that far away from metal? Amazing, I didn’t have a clue.

That's all fine and dandy but OP said they're not very technical. Conceptually Virtualbox is a lot simpler to deal with. There's a lot of advantages (philosophical and practical) to be had with a KVM or QEMU setup for sure, but if you want a simple to understand click-it-together setup then Virtualbox is better. If OP wants to graduate to a better setup then I hope they go for a good FOSS solution eventually but going straight for the deep end is rarely a good idea if you want people to understand what they're doing.

That depends, if you're going to run a barebones W10 install with what amounts to a word processor I think 2GB should be enough. If you can run Chrome you can run a VM. 4GB if you're feeling generous, that's a fair compromise as compared to the disadvantages of dual booting.

Easy, just jump out of a moving car every once in a while.

I don’t think you read past the second sentence of my comment in your rush to tell me I’m wrong. The rest of my comment underlines why the theory is useless. The opening is just defining why they might define a loss of noncompetes as causing irreparable harm.

But the rest of your comment assumes that the employer is correct in stating that the skills of the employee come from the benevolence of the employer, or at the very least you don't argue against it; you just state that non-competes are unjust in various ways. I'm not rushing to tell you you're wrong, I think you're right, that's why I said I don't think you're on the employer's side. I'm just pointing out an implicit assumption in the steelmanned argument you're making doesn't have merit.
