Same. I'd still back everything up.
here, I added more in case you guys didn't notice the lock 
Some do, but a lot of workplaces provide phones, and some people may "accidentally" break theirs to get a new one.
Most of the important ones.
It seems cool, but is probably too janky for me.
Does it let you log in with an enterprise account? because I need to be able to do that as well.
It is not a tractor situation, but I do have an uncle who lives near me (about ~800 meters) who needs windows for some lely software on his farm.
What couldn't you get to work with wine?

A piece of paper on an old printer (a laserjet 4050 to be specific. It says: "Hello, My name is LaserJet 4050 and I was made in 1999. I’ve been doing my job printing your documents for many many years, however I think the motor that powers my paper feeder is bad. This makes me sad because I’m not able to do my job very reliably. As such, I am formally presenting this document as a letter of resignation. IT is working on finding a replacement for me, but for the time being, I apologize if I tell you I have a paper jam. Please allow me to refer you to my coworker, LaserJet 3390. 3390 resides outside of Ray’s office and can be reached at: Please accept my sincerest apologies for failing. Thank you for replacing my toner and restocking my paper tray. It’s been a wonderful 14 years of working together. Much love, LaserJet 4050
They fixed it a bit ago.

An email with the subject "Tic Tok Trend".
It says:
Students and Parents,
We are aware of the Tik Tok trend involving students inserting small metal objects (such as paper clips, pushpins, pencil lead, etc.) into the charging ports of their Chromebooks. This can result in creating sparks, electrical fires, and/or battery punctures, all of which can cause serious injury and damage.
After this message, if a student chooses to participate in this inappropriate behavior, the student may be charged the replacement fee for a new Chromebook. Additionally, the student will face disciplinary action in the form of out of school suspension (OSS).
We are asking for your support in speaking with your child about the dangers of this behavior, as well as reinforcing the importance of treating school-issued devices with care.
A purple button at the bottom says “View, Appreciate or Reply”, and a note underneath states “Please do not reply to this email.”
Really? I signed up for one recently without one.
