Worse! I asked if feasible to move back from the expert mode panel to the smart mode one! And also if they knew why I was stuck to zero impressions on my ads.

Jokes aside, I believe it was their version of "Let's turn the PC off and on again" for the panel's mode issue. If you're curious, it didn't solve it.

Suspension and account closing are two different things.

That meritocracy exists.

It looks to me that's the one in the guide on the official website of AdGuard DNS.

I agree. Seeing stuff like that and how, more often than not, the clients treated their employees and consultants was just bad for the soul. In such contexts, you understand why workers aren't called people but "resources." In the end, I got burned out and quit the job.

Many years ago, I used to work in infosec. One of my employer's clients was a big and famous brand well-established in the luxury sector. One day, a colleague of mine was sent to test their POS. Inside one, he found a single transaction for around 6M € from a credit card swipe. It wasn't a payment made from a bank transfer or a check, just a single credit card swipe! At the time, I couldn't even dream a card with such a credit allowance would exist. I had a pretty good living then, with money for the rent, daily expenses, and even some savings. Still, for an instant, I remember feeling like a poor child living in a house made of mud.

Each time I tried to switch to an IDE, I returned to Vim after a few days. Nothing compares to it, and vim-modes always seem nerfed to me. RIP

I have a ThinkPad slightly newer than yours. I didn't think about upgrading it until I saw your post. Now that's the route I'm more inclined to take instead of replacing it when the time will be, so thank you for your post!

Did you have any issues with brightness control after upgrading your screen? At least for my model, I heard many people complaining about being unable to adjust the brightness after changing the part.

They really decided to sink the boat. Such foolish level of unfriendliness to users was not seen since the time Facebook purposefully slowed their app to see how much its public was addicted.
