That seems to redirect me to the same page linked earlier in this thread (https://myaccount.google.com/security). Taking a look in my admin console, it looks like "Allow users to turn on 2-step verification" is unchecked, so presumably 2-step verification is not enabled for this account. That's exactly what I want, but it seems Google is failing to abide when they think I'm a "hacker". Other people have had the same frustrations[0][1] but there is apparently no way to stop Google requiring additional verification at their whim. Ultimately that means Google controls when I can and can't login to my account, so it ceases to be a usable product for me.
I appreciate your help, though!

Sorry for being thick, but I'm not seeing it. This is a G-suite account (though I'm the only user / admin) so maybe it's different.

I don't know how they determine what options to offer, but using my phone was the only one given, despite entering a correct password. The only other option, which I either found from the "Learn more" link or after exhausting the "login with your phone" attempts, was to create a support ticket for my G-suite account which, in this case, would have been slower than returning to home a few hours later where I had left my phone.

> Now, you have one more option—and it’s already in your pocket. Starting today in beta, your phone can be your security key—it’s built into devices running Android 7.0+.
You know, it's nice they phrase this as an "option", but in my experience Google has the habit of forcing me to have my phone on me when I login from a new location / new device, something I never asked for and apparently cannot disable.[0] This has locked me out of my Google account more than once which also locks me out of anything that sends 2FA to my Gmail or Gvoice. I guess I'm thankful that I've learned this in non-emergency scenarios, as I'm now prepping to degoogleify myself, but it's a user-hostile in my opinion. Security always has convenience trade-offs, but let the user decide where they want to draw that line.

I have seen this used in Grad school applications by ESL students.

Did anyone else notice the "The Network is the Computer™" slogan on workers.dev? I didn't see any footnotes, is this something Cloudflare now owns?

> ... will likely have negative effects on its health
Indoor cats have lifespans multiple times that of outdoor cats, so I think the alternative has negative effects on health, too.

An Orange Pi Plus 2E meets all your needs, but like the other comment noted, it's going to cost more than $6.

It wasn't uncommon to see hot_new_song.mp3.exe back in the gnutella heyday.

You make it sound like this is some elephant in the room across the industry. I'm curious if others here have found the same conclusions you have.
For the first several years at least, most of the mortgage payment goes to interest and taxes, not principal, and is "wasted" in much the same way rent is.
