Sounds like FedEx issue had something similar with the replacement delivery. I emailed them that I pick up the package at their hub. If you live near a hub or other distribution center of theirs try to get it as self pickup.

Use ELK. It’s basically the same but open source and unlimited for free. Also splunk sucks. Have to use it at work and it really isn’t great. (My personal opinion)
That‘s normal. There are countless bot nets that scan every public available IP to hijack. Using fail2ban is already a good approach. I personally switched to crowdsec a while ago as it comes with a crowdsourced blacklist which will silence a lot of the common noise and only occasionally I get an Alarm about an IP address not already on the default list.
Yes and no. Depends. What‘s you use cases? Can Linux fulfill them? Did you check that?
Ferdora 39 worked without a hitch. Even had no issues with BIOS 3.02 which allegedly had freezes.
I got one HGST with now almost 11 years. And some WD Reds with 9 to 10 years. They run now in a Helios 64 which I use to store DVD and BluRay backups before they get tagged correctly and moved to my Plex storage pool.
Windows bad. Linux good. BSD better.
For real though. Windows cost money, it uses a lot of resources. And Desktop Version is missing vital parts you might want to use on a windows server like Domain Controller, DHCP, Server, Web Server, Hyper-V. Etc.
Those reasons also have most running Limix or even BSD because they are pretty lightweight especially when used headless. Also as open source they are mostly free of cost. And when you virtualize on a free and open source Hypervisor like XCP-ng or Proxmox you can run way more smaller VMs than Windows VMs as they need more resources.
You shouldn’t look at the hardware but at the software. For what will you use the laptop? What Applications do you plan to use. Are there Mac specific things you plan to do. Or do you have windows specific tasks. Or even would Linux the best platform for you.
If price is not a factor the software that supports your daily work the best will should be the decider.
Batch 1 here. For me it took one day from payment to shipping confirmation. Maybe you are more to the end of the orders. Also here in Germany get ready for a ride with FedEx. Took me a week to get my package from them after they missed me at home by 5 minutes on their first try.
The Bill at the end of the year.
I am using terraform to create my VMs and destroy them. Using Ansible with the xenorchestra inventory plugin and have it configure the servers I created.
So you know how to do it securely and analyze what may go one when it is attacked. Or what else do you want with cybersecurity? It’s about securing services on the global network and local. And webhosting is one of those service.
