Arch is great when you’re somewhat experienced with Linux. Otherwise I recommend an Arch + QoL distro like EndeavourOS.
I’m a developer using Linux for well over a decade and a half and I use EndeavourOS because it just adds a level of ease.

This phenomenon is primarily due to fears of high repair costs, lack of technical information, and long lead times for replacement parts.
Vehicles that use batteries as structural elements are more prone to being totaled by insurance companies.
I think you’re missing what I’m saying here. I’m pointing out that Chinese auto makers don’t have the same processes as more experienced companies. They’re just slinging out cars into foreign markets with almost no extra work.
Besides, the article didn’t say the cars are “fine”, it quoted someone saying that they’ve seen some cars that would have been fixed quickly if it was a domestic brand because of part availability.
I don’t understand why you’re referring to China’s regulations all the time. They are irrelevant.
I wish they were, but those cars are made in China. There’s a lot that gets looked the other way.
And someone at Tesla said recently in an interview that they wanted to do a certain thing with the Cybertruck but couldn’t because “we couldn’t get the regulation changed on that one”. (I don’t remember what that specific thing was)
Aside from the batteries and fake auto-pilot, the non-Cybertruck Tesla’s have a very good track record.
It’s both. China’s lack of regulations make a bad thing worse.
lmao I have a very strong disdain for Tesla.

The reality is that I don’t think any EV is “safe” as far as the batteries go

Keep in mind that negative stories from China (anything that casts China itself or people/companies within China) are heavily and aggressively censored.
Downside is that it won’t work if my internet or power is out
If it doesn’t work when your internet is out, then it’s not local.
If you want yourself or your house to burn in a lítium battery fire, then sure, go for it.
Edit: I’m going to tag this post of mine and come back in a few years when all the stories about banning Chinese-made EVs come out because of safety issues. See you all in a couple years.
You’re introducing an argument as a way to undermine the viewpoint that’s opposite to yours.
No one said it’s fine “when we do it”. That’s not the point being discussed.
The other bigger issue here is that these new cars are coming from a region that has a horrendous track record for safety and quality. EVs when done right are still a considerable risk with battery fires, but the ones manufactured in China are much worse for quality and safety. In the next few years, as these cars flood markets around the world, it will be a massive issue.
I’ve tried Zerotier before and it doesn’t hold a candle to Tailscale.
Tailscale
It’s WireGuard based and it’s completely free for 100 devices.
The monitors blacking out and the system not booting is suspicious.
I think you’ve said you tried a few distros. Does the exact same behaviour happen on all distros?
If possible, I would suggest giving it all another go with x11 instead of Wayland. Nvidia is still the worst for using with Wayland. It’s gotten a lot better, and it’s almost there for complete support, but there are still some issues here and there.
How are you restricting internet access for it?
This is a headline I absolutely did not have in my “things that can go wrong” bingo card.
<Germany looks around sheepishly>
push people out windows
Defenestrate
Did you really just try to excuse and downplay a company claiming full ownership and rights over all user’s data?
I thought we already did that
The US isn’t a 1st world country. It just cosplays as one.
