That's in the US, but to be fair I'm comparing the cheapest 3-in-1 mono brother to my 3-in-1 HP printer. So £178 vs £50, 3x more. That's forgetting the fact that I'd no longer be able to print in colour. I do understand that if I printed more often a laser would absolutely be cheaper.

You could just pick the parts (I'd suggest researching at least a little bit) and have someone check what you picked before committing, easy. Post them here too and people can give some better suggestions if necessary, with a reason why.
The building part is (usually, unless you go for an oddball case) easy, picking the parts is indeed tricky without a second pair of eyes if you're new to this.
People have different tastes .. I could eat those Fry's ones until I felt sick lol, one of my favourite sweet things.
There were a lot of WFH jobs that existed far before COVID. Another CEO can easily make the decision to keep WFH open as an option / perk, and hey guess what, top talent goes there instead. I know people who have been working remotely since the early 2000s - it won't die.
Think I've bought 4 cartridges since getting mine six years ago, so about £120. £20 a year isn't bad... We don't print much, but getting a laser mono is 5x the cost of our printer for the cheapest brother...
The problem is when rights to certain shows or movies end - and it either ends up on another platform you don't have (and need to pay extra for) or worse, region locked to the US etc.
Ownership of media can be digital, too.
I don't even use a computer, I just hunt fish
Seeing ndiswrapper just brought back a twitch in my eye. I don't miss WiFi dongles / cards one bit.
This is the saving grace for so many people who are forced to use windows at work - I can do terminal stuff locally now which is great. Slow when working with windows directories (outside of WSL) but still great.
There are definitely "quirks", even with a lot of the gold/platinum rated games on protondb. E.g. Titanfall 2, horrible crackling audio issues at times, even though it runs great otherwise. Firewatch, random choppy slowdowns, but rare. BattleBit, sometimes (not too often) 20 seconds of 20fps, then back to normal.
The other thing worth noting is that just because a linux distro is noob friendly, it doesn't mean advanced users should feel the need to use more complicated distros. Quite the opposite in a lot of cases - I've used Linux for work over ~10 years (first tried it in 2007) and yet find myself back on Ubuntu for my laptop. PopOS for my desktop because of nvidia convenience (+ less issues than most other distros).
Why would they care about your opinion enough to not go on holiday where they want? If you want to fly without the chance of noisy kids then fly first class, or better still, private jet.
No? Can't afford? Suck it up then lol, people are going to live their lives regardless of a bit of noise that you can easily cancel out with headphones.
