Even on the windows side you are better off with the 1st party defender features these days.

Enterprise use 3rd party AV for central orchestration and control. Theres no reason for this in consumer land.

The threat detection isn't meaningfully better across any of them (aside from some being "astonishingly bad") despite what vendors claim.

The best people to know how to protect your OS are the people that made it.

I have a similar build and similar body fat percentage.

I don't tend to notice a significant weight loss from exercise, but I do look a bit skinner/healthier - muscle weighs more than fat.

The only way I lose weight is by dieting, not exercise. But the exercise makes me feel better/happier/stronger so you do both :)

Consistency is key - 3 months you are just getting started if you are coming from zero! From a similar starting point I found it took about 6months of daily exercise before I felt significantly different.

Keep at it is my only advice, don't sweat the protein measurements you aren't at a level it matters. Avoid take out, eat reasonably well, and do at least 1hr of cardio or strength daily and you'll get where you want to go.

Yes, it's all very good.

Nice try but I'm keeping my even more instant instant noodles to myself.

I'll give you a hint though, the secret is in being ok with pumping boiling water into your stomach.

Yeah windows standby sucks. On platforms where the equivalent of s0 doesn't suck, it's awesome.

Don't you? Instant wake is hella useful, especially if you are using a laptop as a laptop and moving between meeting rooms etc, constantly bumping between sleep and wake.

They note towards the bottom they've also developed a sustainable resin in place of PVA.

Seagate are still pretty good? Western Digital/Sandisk are the ones with failing external SSD issues at the moment (same company).

It's pot luck generally, unfortunately. Even good manufacturers can have a bad batch.

Not really.. just a slightly higher end of gear, most of dells professional series will do it from memory, the gigabyte on my desk does it.

Yeah.. tend to agree - it's doable but OP would be reaching for some fairly hectic gear to solve a pretty small problem. Consumer monitors with PIP definitely exist and would be cheaper.
