To be fair at least Lenovo and to some extent dell also offer this for individual customers.
It usually is not an option on the latest processors for premium models though as soldered RAM becomes more prevalent there. A minor problem of the author might be that they are looking at the relatively high tier models, which ime have less options for "saving" money, while something like a thinkpad e14 might also have been a good candidate instead.
About that, we actually tried (with support from the network team) to open a small VPN Fron our office for some mobile devices as part of an event installation. Just plain wireguard on a public IP.
After two weeks of back and forth the wireguard packets were still being discarded somewhere by a firewall/router thanks to "deny VPNs by default". Tailscale got through those immediately though by using their relays + one of the workarounds for standard wireguard ports being blocked. Point being, the service provided by a mature solution like Tailscale for punching through networks is surprisingly effective even for corporate-level networks.
Serious question: what tools only support netrc for authentication? I'm aware of lots of tools that (unfortunately IMO) support netrc as a source of credentials, but I can't think of a single one that requires it.
> only try to flash over an ECU or try swapping it.
To be fair, they have wrenches thrown in their way there as many ECUs and other computer-driven components are fairly locked down and undocumented. Especially as the programming software itself is not often freely distributed (only for approved shops/dealers).
I have played through Deus Ex HR (and MD) on Bazzite albeit on an AMD GPU. You should generally be able to do it with Proton (GE recommended) either Steam (recommended) or Heroic (if you bought them from GOG).
Witcher 1/2 at least also worked OOB via steam.
For some context/ user comments, see Deus Ex HR[0] and System Shock 2[1] on protondb.
to add to this, under German law they very much are different in regards to mandatory military service. Neither the old nor the new laws contain mandatory military service for women leading to mandatory conscription being only an issue for men.
