That's good, glad to hear it! I also put in a good word for you which doubtless helped I'm sure!

It's pretty quick to set up luckily. Depending on your security needs you can set a PIN and prevent access to certain controls and areas of the screen. If you have a need for real security (e.g. an app on a corporate campus) you'd want real single app mode, but for home use it's more than enough I think.

Did you ever mend your relationship with your crow friends? It sucks that feeding them isn't legal in your region (though that's probably for the best from an ecological perspective).

Like others here, I use mine as a sort of "kiosk" for smart home stuff by using Guided Access to lock it to a single app. If you have a Mac you could also put it into real single-app mode via Apple Configurator policies, but it's more time-consuming to set up and if the app stops working there's no way to fix it short of restarting the entire iPad (whereas you can end Guided Access, restart the app, and start Guided Access again).

Bring them on!

I've wondered about that. I suppose failing trust in your local instances of those organizations, then one should strive to build solidarity in their local communities (which, really, we should probably be doing anyway), though I know that isn't practicable for many.

The best option in that situation may be, loathe as I am to say it, Reddit. There's a liberalgunowners community in the Fediverse, but it's not quite as established as Reddit's yet (be the change you want to see in the world!). Not to say that subreddit isn't a target for bad actors (it certainly is), but it's at least easier to control your exposure to risk.

Just a reminder that if you haven't already, check out if there's a Pink Pistols, Liberal Gun Club, or Socialist Rifle Association (SRA) chapter for your area.

Why choose? With Grindr, you can get both!

You should keep it around, per the Asahi docs themselves, and marcan provides some additional context in a reddit comment which I've also quote here:

Can, yes. Should, no. It is not supported right now. You won't be able to install Asahi if you first remove macOS, and removing it after requires messing with partitions using a USB boot image or similar, and will leave you without the ability to recover from certain problems without outright reinstalling macOS first, plus no firmware updates (which might become required in the future to enable certain features - do you really want to find out you can't play newer games because you need a GPU firmware update and you have to reinstall macOS for that?).

We'll have more options for this in the future, but right now we do not support it and if you go this way, you're on your own.

That all leaves multiple copies of recoveryOS of course, which is a stripped-down version of macOS itself. It is not possible to remove recoveryOS and keep your machine functional at all. It is basically part of your BIOS.

You could try using diskutil apfs resizeContainer <container ID> minimum (I don't 100% recall if the last argument is actually minimum but using the regular --help should give you the correct one) in macOS to shrink the macOS container to smaller than the Asahi installer typically allows, or use expert mode in the Asahi install script to override the macOS size check, possibly with fewer negative consequences than deleting it outright.

Sorry if you already know all this but I thought I'd add it here just in case!

To be fair, I wouldn't expect grok to be using actual facts and reputable sources as its baseline knowledge, given its owner.

Well, this just validates my decision to discontinue my Mozilla subscriptions a few months back. They may be throwing all independence from Alphabet out the window but hey, at least there's a cute new fox mascot, right?

Just in my personal experience, I use IronFox with Mullvad, which YouTube flags and throws the "Sign in to confirm you're not a bot" error whereas NewPipe, for example, typically works (I believe they have a workaround similar to yt-dlp that leverages the Android VR API).
