Sure, but it's the fact that out of any other choice to pick, she chose to still give her money to the most aggressively capitalist companies. You can say it's consumerism, but what point is she even making then? She sat down at a Starbucks to get her overpriced coffee, on a $1200 Macbook with a sticker on it that says "SMASH CAPITALISM", it's blatantly hyprocritcal.

At this point, I'm not even going to bother trying to go on there anymore.
"My BIOS is password locked but proprietary (due to compatibility issues)."
"I use full disk encryption, multiple disks, and a second layer of encryption for specific important files (NSA style)"
I recommend switching to Libreboot, I've recently helped add support for the Dell Optiplex 9020 MT, and will soon add support for the Dell Precision T1700 MT. Libreboot allows for full disk encryption, including the automatically encrypting the /boot partition during installation of an OS. I use RAID 0 with 3 disks (LUKS and LVM) on my desktop, with my /boot unencrypted stored on a SD card so I can easily toss it whenever.
For gaming, I've had success using Proxmox to play games like GTA V and Rainbow Six Siege through a VM, even passing through NVIDIA drivers (though I plan to switch to AMD). Although, currently the Haswell boards (9020MT and T1700MT) can't use IOMMU correctly so I recommend using the T1650 for passing through your GPU to a VM. Beware though, the T1650 board can't be freed entirely in the BIOS I believe.
Also, updating your CPU microcode can help avoid potential performance issues. If you're concerned about security, consider GPG signing your kernel with Libreboot GRUB for an additional layer of verification at boot.
Wouldn't surgery make it permanent? I heard a couple stories of the people who did regret it.
I'm sorry to hear that you're not doing well. If you feel comfortable, sharing more about what's going on might help, and I'm here to listen.

The person who posted this is definitely white. As a white person myself, I find this post amusing. Do you know why? It's because you're trying to validate yourself. Accepting who you are is essential, and posting this type of content won't help with that.
Pretending to be the 'good guy' is simply foolish. We're all flawed, but I believe most people try not to be. History has occurred, and all you're doing is dredging up its worst aspects. Move on.
