Are you leaving behind the dotfiles because you don't want to bring over any of your old configuration?
For whatever it's worth, you can remove Snap support from your Ubuntu system. If you want more current software, AppImage and Flatpaks are good for that.
I'm just a passer-by here, but, I have a house with pine siding. It stains fine? Maybe we're not thinking of the same thing.
I've used Benjamin Moore's "ARBORCOAT Translucent Classic Oil Finish" tinted "Natural," as well as on my deck tinted "Cedar." For the sides facing South and West I would ideally re-stain every 3 years it looks like, and it does seem to be getting darker every time I do that.
I had always used this foaming wood cleaner, but one time in a pinch I bought the "normal" ... not-foaming cleaner, and that turned out to be a big mistake. This cleaner didn't clean so much as bleach, then when I put on the transparent stain it just looked like bleached wood. Luckily that was just a shed.

If it's the Kirkland dog food, I think that's actually really good dog food. So, no worries there.
It sounds like they're suggesting most of the businesses they took money back from unintentionally claimed too much. They also said it was the third-parties who assisted with inaccurate claims that they're most interested in. Considering these would be accountants there might actually be some consequences for them that aren't just "bad application? That's a fine."
Considering the chaos and immediate need that these programs were conceived under, I think that the approach of giving money as quickly as possible then following up when the dust settled was the right approach. Like the premise of our justice system - better that some dishonest people have money they don't deserve temporarily than those in dire need go without.
Also, do we know they're not being charged interest?
Yeah, I tried naming the files to help, but then Google Photos doesn't make it easy to see those.
The first picture is the vent outside. Essentially, the hood fan (inside) exhausts into the top of the metal box that's in the wall. On the other side of that box, around the middle, is a vent that goes outside. Then there's just a dead-end area of the metal box where some bugs have collected.

It was built in 2016, but maybe they made some initial mistake. Hopefully that's not it.
Does the disk encryption of Android count as encrypted at rest? If not, I think this will be a hard requirement to meet.
That aside, I'm having good luck with Synching. I think there's a bit of a learning curve setting it up, but you don't really have to touch it once you're done.
I'm not going to be much help ATM, but I believe there is some Google service that allows you to use "foreign" email addresses to log in to a Google account. What that would mean is that you could move your domains away from Google but then keep the Google accounts based on those domains active.
Anyway, fingers crossed I remember about this and actually find the thing I'm taking about and get back to you later today.
Something that I've found that's counterintuitive is that there's more ISP competition rurally than in cities. In a rural setting anyone can slap a radio on a tower and get access to a reasonable number of homes. With 60GHz equipment showing up, the speed isn't terrible either.
This might be true for fibre as well, but you don't see that as much. Our independent ISP has been busy trenching all over the county. Certain towns have direct access, while every one else benefits from fixed-wireless towers having direct fibre connection.
In the city you just can't do direct line-of-sight wireless, and while your customers are more tightly packed, trenching in fibre must be a non-starter for anyone that isn't Telus/Bell/Rogers.
To the people going "everyone is," I'm thinking you may not know a veterinarian.
We have a rural vet, so she's mostly a 1-person operation (she has a vet tech). She gets calls at all hours, from people she doesn't know, who are desperate, rude, or both. She was telling me about a woman who called about her puppy who was struggling to breathe. It was an hour drive away, and from experience she knew she needed to be up front that there was going to be a fee for her coming out. After being told what a shitty person she was, the woman just hung up. So, there was a puppy out there, struggling to breath, and either the vet needed to drive two hours on her weekend to help it, and possibly not get paid, or quite likely this dog dies some slow painful death.
People seem to think they're entitled to a vet, and when she can't see someone as soon as they'd like they get angry. When it's time to pay, people can get angry. There was an accident by our town and the fire department brought in two dogs that were thrown from the car and in bad shape. She had tried to make them as comfortable as possible while trying to contact someone from the family. She ended up doing a bit of work, but when the wife of the driver was finally found she simply refused to pay anything. Said she didn't ok any of it.
So consider that a vet goes into this profession because they love animals, but day in and out they're seeing them suffer terribly, and often much more than is necessary because people are ass holes. From beyond our own vet I've also heard lots of stories of people just ghosting after they've learned how much some treatment will cost, or wanting to put down animals that are just "too old." Vets sit at this intersection between helpless animals and how society treats animals. Well, and now how people treat people.
I have email going all the way back to 2013 or so, and don't like the idea of all that information sitting readily available for hacks, warrants, or automated scanning. I move mail older than two years into a local Thunderbird folder to limit what's sitting online, while also letting me search for recent emails while out and about.
Aside from that, I like that I can still access emails while offline, see all my inboxes, contacts, and calendar in one place. Also, I've got enough "apps" that run in the browser.
Actually, sudden account closure without recourse (which Google does) is another reason to make sure I have local copies of email too.
I've found that Dolphin, at least, is much slower with network mounts than a CLI-based "mount".
