Couple of things that might be useful:

  • Setup remote desktop access using VNC/RDP. It can be useful to access your PC etc while using your phone or other devices. Or accessing a raspberry pi on your main PC
  • Setup a virtual machine and install Windows in it. It might be a good way to think about migrating to linux as your main OS
  • Steam. See how performance on Linux compares to Windows for your games.

One shop I was at had a manual process going with cash only purchases.

That blew up when I ordered 3 things and the 'cashier' didn't know how to add them together. They didn't have calculator on Windows available🤣

I told them the total and change to give me, but lent them the calculator on my phone so they could verify for themselves 🤣

Still fills me with a sense of wonder just from hearing those 5 notes.

Also there is this

Jesus Christ.

I use the calculator in Ubuntu tor very simple purposes. It was crashing on me every time I opened it.

I tracked down why.

It was trying to get a foreign currency exchange rate file - which I was horrified that you'd think about even having in a calculator.

The reason that was failing? Because I had a VPN enabled.

And it wouldn't even fail gracefully. Nope it would poof, disappear.

The fix is to disable vpn, and disable foreign currency in the preferences.

I was so pissed off. And on the next upgrade the same thing happened, which I'd forgotten all about, so went through it AGAIN!

Yeah, I checked installed apps (checked system apps), and I don't have it installed on either of my devices

I'm in Australia, and when I search for Device Lock Controller in Play Store, it says "This app is not available in your region"

This happens on 2 separate devices from different manufacturers. Both devices were purchased in Australia and have Australian ROMs

Just be aware that any software that has Australians working on it can be forced to include backdoors, and are not allowed to disclose it either
