I also wonder how long it takes wage suppression to propagate out into lower demand and shrinking GDP growth.
Different pricing, different ways of conceptualizing but from a user perspective that's a pretty good comparison.
Not trying to shill, not everything should be serverless, and I should work to be more platform agnostic, but AWS has been great to and for me, AWS marketing material [2]

My costs are a few dollars a month for the 7 sites I've set up, comes with SSL, gzip, etc.
There's a common AWS Service static site pattern that chains together four services: Serverless Computer, Object Storage, CDN, DNS.
In your mind, reframe what you do as a marketing service. Offer vanity email addresses, email marketing services. Add analytic reporting or something. Perhaps a Drift like embedded Facebook Messenger client as your customers already have Facebook?
Good luck!
My question to you is, why use an old kernel + packages when you could have newish ones with a reasonable degree of trust? Is avoiding the extremely rare bug worth it?
re:PPAs I prefer my machines packages to be downloaded from trusted sources. The distro developer package vetting and accountability adds value.
I personally use Debian Testing, maybe take this chance to try it? I've never had a stability issue across the 4 different devices I use.
The U.S. welfare is multifaceted. Try to shift to a stack oriented model. The real picture should include both indirect subsidization and multiple direct benefits/subsidization. Income, rent, food, medicine, childcare, transportation, utilities. There are what someone in poverty would consider sweet spots under certain conditions.
Now, Not all welfare programs stack. Local cost of living changes the stickiness point. But, imo, the most overlooked problem is poor people get good at being poor. There are ways to exchange benefits and untaxed labor for value, even if it's not explicit or monetary.
I've lived it. I know people who are scared to lose benefit X if they earn over Y. The bigger problem is that the government can't manufacture meaning and purpose no matter how much cash they pour out. No marketable skills develop, no local capital accumulation, no gaining experience and moving up. There are no good jobs to escape to. The cliff is doing what you know. What you consider unlivable is life for a lot of people.
Also, I can give some sweet spot scenarios if you want hard numbers.
It's easy to forget the time and effort to accumulate the knowledge for fighting the limitations to a technology you've familiarized yourself with.
- A SOA approach requires less stack knowledge overhead and $$$ for actual deployment and use than monolithic applications.
NoSQL vs SQL? Not everything fits on a spreadsheet. Just because you've gotten good at wiggling things into one doesn't mean that you're right.

The justifications I've heard is that it's a lot of labor saved if the family is sufficiently large and the woman is expected to do all the cooking and cleaning.
For example, I browse the internet and read news on my front porch, but my office is strictly work mode. My living room is strictly a space for relaxing and entertaining guests, my kitchen/dining area is for cooking and eating. It may sound weird but if I get a phone call or have to make an email. I move to my office ( my note pads, and desktop is ready to go which is a plus )
I think the work-from-anywhere play-from-anywhere meme has been damaging to my productivity and happiness. I feel a lot less anxious and more focused.
If there's a 25% tariff on Chinese components, it makes Japanese, Taiwanese, Korean, developing-economy players more competitive. If the tariff is projected to last it will cause a sizable diffusion toward other players. Consider also that tech goods growth is projected to continue and China wants to start fabbing silicon. China doesn't want the brakes pumped on that exponential curve.
Celestial navigation by imaging the sky, and combining that data with a clock and compass.
Storing all files as objects and then indexing..
An interesting indexer for images would be one that groups objects by faces recognized or exif data(camera model, GPS location, lens, date, etc) Google Drive does this.
