I bought one used and it had a messed up USB port, which became unusable over time. The other got bricked after a LineageOS update. Bootloader inaccessible. I tried taking it apart to get the usb port out of it for the other phone but botched the job, which is incredibly delicate considering the back of the phone is glass. Turns out you can access the bootloader if you wait until the battery goes completely to zero. So I could probably get that phone going again if I don't care that it doesn't have a back anymore.

Main is guitar.

Fiddle, its less effort to play notes quickly, but the technique is tricky. At first its like whack-a-mole: if I think about my bow, my left hand goes out of pitch. Think about the left hand, the bow gets wonky. It takes a long time to get things to be more automatic so you can concentrate on the tune, or more advanced techniques like vibrato. Also, the fiddle is really loud and its right there next to your ear. I use an earplug.

my org uses Nextcloud. Its possible to set up folders that are read-only. We have a 'secretary' folder and a 'file drop' folder. The secretary is read-only except for the current secretary. The file drop any user can put files in, but only the secretary can edit or delete them.

We drop files (like signed contracts) into the 'file drop', and the secretary (a person!) moves them into the secretary folder which is visible to all users, but read only.
