Haven’t looked into it but do shops offer lube analysis services? Yeah you could send out your own sample to a lab, having it as a shop service would be way more accessible to people.
Though, in my experience, getting people to commit can be a pain, lots of “yeah I know we have a long p-f interval and it’s super noticeable before it functionally fails, but it’s not that much effort so I’m doing needless maintenance anyhow just in case”, which end of the day you do you.
I’ve used Thunderbird since forever as my go-to client, I used mutt as well for a while and that met my needs pretty well.
I’ve always known your world is complex, working closely with accountants and actuaries the last 4 years doing data applications further confirmed that, there’s some legitimately complex math that shows up, and it’s a lot of work to model that correctly.

He won’t even get a security clearance, how can anyone trust him to run a government?

Cove does this type of stuff that actually tastes decent if you want an occasional soft drink, they do kombucha too, there’s stevia sweetened brands too out there.
Straight arch works great with nvidia cards, gaming was my last hitch too, only thing I really miss is HDR in games, but it’s a tradeoff I’m willing to have (had bad times with gamescope and nvidia, I’m content to leave it alone for now, things change rapidly anyhow)
