The meaning is the same. You are splitting hairs over a text written by a non-native speaker.
A one state solution can be many things, including a significantly reformed Israel. Sadly a two-state solution with the borders similar to the ones today is about as unrealistic as a one-state solution, as the Palestinian territories alone are not a viable state (and that doesn't even touch the issue of the many Israeli settlers in those territories).
Yeah I wish there was a good answer to that. Floccus at least works ok for bookmarks.
AFAIK the "wear" does not mainly come from the spinning, but from temperature changes that make parts slightly expand and contract in size. An always on HDD has pretty constant temperature.
Be careful with powering HDDs on and off. That is actually the operation that puts the most strain on them AFAIK. Sadly there is no good rule of thumb when it does more harm than good, but I would guess if you turn it on more than once a week, you are probably doing more harm than good compared to just letting in run. Many people even intentionally turn off sleep-mode in "green" drives so that they don't shut down automatically.
This isn't about a laptop, but a full desktop case with 5.25" slots. 3.5" fit fine into these with a different kind of adapter.
An IRC server would work, but I think having to deal with 32bit ARM will be too annoying.
Seems like an obvious suggestion, but Nextcloud can do that quite well.
You could probably approximate something similar with Odoo. It is a big ERP, but all modular, so you can just remove the parts that are too complex.
Being worked on apparently.
Please read the text again. All of that is included.
