everything has trackers, even those APs or wifi routers flashed with 3rd party firmware (openwrt, ddwrt, etc). If OP is willing to spend time on doing packet tracing or even the most simple one like a setting up a localized dns server/sinkhole, OP might be amazed what lights up.

Pocari sweat

Its not the best tasting electrolyte drink sorry, but it helps me when i need electrolyte and i enjoy it compared to gatorade

PS: it taste citrusy(if thats a word) and not so sweet compared to gatorade

Why? Are they still trying to revive firewire?

I hope they would include addon sideloading as well

Yep, too overly specific or weird on some stuff, like for example on installing packages via terminal, I just went with suggesting it because I haven’t fully red and understood your query, my bad :)

As for auditing tools, I can’t think of any because there is a lot of ways how to check logs and it is messy ngl. If I’ll be honest with you how I kinda survived linux is by automating backup of important files through nas and if I f*cked up my system, instead of fiddling the logs to find what went wrong, I’ll just nuke it.

Opensuse has GUI frontend that controls almost all the system settings called YaST, why dont you give it a try
