I'm not sure what that post is meant to show, if swap isn't "disk RAM". That post even concludes:
Swap [...] provides another, slower source of memory [...]

PSoD is already used by VMware ESXi. And Windows Insider builds, I think.
Maybe green?
If it's only on the ESP, it won't persist across reinstalls, and definitely not drive swaps.
But I do see mentions of attacking via firmware capsule. If that works, then yes, that will persist.
A singularity is the single point mass at the center of an ideal (Schwarzschild) black hole. But mathematically, that can only happen if the mass that forms the black hole isn't rotating. In reality, all the mass in the universe is moving around, because mass is not distributed uniformly, so gravity is pulling stuff around in a big mess. So when a black hole forms, it's definitely a rotating (Kerr) black hole.
A rotating mass has different gravity than a non-rotating mass. Not by much, but when you've got the enormous mass of a black hole, it becomes significant. This causes objects "falling into" a black hole to "miss" the point at the center, and form more of a cloud during spaghettification.
The article is fairly accessible if you sit down and read it.
Honestly, inside the event horizon, everything stops making sense compared to our day-to-day experiences. The immense gravitational forces distort space and time. It doesn't really make sense to think about objects remaining intact as recognizable objects once they cross the event horizon.
How? You could certainly temporarily break the boot process, but I can't see how you'd completely brick it.
My favorite is when the sssd package maintainers don't properly update their dependencies, so when some of the packages get updated, they don't pull in others, and then I'm not able to log in with my external account.
It depends. I've used a chargeback where I sent a product back for a warranty repair, and the seller stopped responding. The bank just wanted documentation, and they put it through. I imagine you could argue for a chargeback in this case, if you used a credit card.
Also tell the person administering it to do it slowly. In my experience, most of the pain was from them doing it too fast. Something about the fluid stretching the muscle in painful ways before it can spread out, or something.
The monitor seems to be recommending you use mode 1280x1024. Have you tried that?
Either self-encrypting drives (if you trust the OEM encryption) or auto-unlock with keys in the TPM: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Trusted_Platform_Module#Data-at-rest_encryption_with_LUKS
ISP shittiness aside, ISPs do actually pay for Internet backbone access by the byte. Usually there are peering agreements saying "you take 1tb of traffic from us, and we'll take 1tb of traffic from you", whether that traffic is destined for one of their customers (someone on Comcast scrolling Instagram), or they're just providing the link to the next major node (Comcast being the link between AT&T's segment of the US backbone and Big Mike's Internet out in podunk Nebraska).
And normally that works pretty well, until power users start moving huge amounts of data and unbalancing the traffic.
