While at the sametime being a gross person.

Dell Latitudes and Precisions support Linux pretty well.

Git repos of some helpful scripts and configs.

Music.

Profile backup.

They also just bought an Ad network, so can’t get ad revenue if they can’t track people.

Synergies™

Or $HOME/.var/log.

There is a .local folder these days.

Profile roaming hasn’t been solved aside from NFS mounts. I guess Syncthing might work.
