I encrypted my professional laptop's drive in order to prevent access to company data and code in case of theft. And I'll probably encrypt my personal laptop as well because the SSH key can access company code.
As for the desktop, I didn't and probably never will, because theft is less likely and that would be a pain to handle for nightly backups (it is turned on with Wake-on-LAN and then a cron backs up my home directory to my NAS).
Finally, I won't encrypt my NAS as well for the same reason: it would quickly become a hassle as I would have to manually decrypt the drives every time it boots after a power outage.
According to this 2 years old project, Simagic's force feedback isn't supported in mainline kernels, requiring installation of a kernel module. It's unclear if support has been mainlined since then.
As far as I know, lock screen widgets are only available on Android tablets running Android 15. On other devices I believe you would need to root it to add the feature (unless some OEMs added them to their versions of Android already?)
I'm not one to defend DRMs, but they rarely play a part in games sales. In the case of BF2042, I believe other factors played much bigger roles: bug-ridden beta (and early release), confusing hero system and gameplay, and missing features.
Mozilla will probably lose (part of or all of, it's not clear yet) Google's funding following their monopoly case, so it's probably best for them to look for other revenue sources.
