>An interesting part is the "we'll send you an email to confirm you're you", followed by a "enter validation code here" screen that immediately gets forwarded to the re-enrollment message. Also, no confirmation emails are being sent.
"Wi-Fi calling" (LTE over IP over wifi) often allows you to get SMS messages over wifi only, on an ordinary cell plan: https://support.apple.com/en-us/108066 (Android supports it too)

Do you have some links about this? I found some papers re arsenic but I can't find anything re lead.

They haven't, but they've put in tremendous resources into going above the speed of light in optical fibre, including the use of point-to-point microwave links and, when it's impossible to place towers for microwave links (for example, across the Atlantic Ocean), the use of HF/shortwave (as in 3-30MHz stuff) radio.

Why not PCIe? Aren't there already a bunch of design/validation/verification tools for it? A RISC-V CPU with just a bunch of PCIe lanes (and a couple of channels of fast DDR4) coming off of it (and maybe an IOMMU) would be a lot easier to integrate with existing hardware, rather than trying to recreate open-source equivalents of modern GPUs and network hardware.
That is _exactly_ what happens to me.
