Can’t you just not use their cloud services? It makes you create an account for setup, but once setup was done I never touched it.

I do not know what you mean by third-party integrations. I do not use any cloud stuff, Ubiquiti’s or otherwise.
I used to use OpenWRT on various devices, but two years ago I got a UDM-Pro, a USW-16-POE, and a few Unifi APs and cameras. I run pi-hole on the UDM-Pro. I have no complaints. It is more expensive than piecing it all together using OpenWRT and some Raspberry PIs, but way easier.
You could use multiple USB microphones and do the mixing in software. I prefer using an audio interface (e.g. UMC204HD) because it is simpler to set up and adjust levels, and because it lets you use any widely available microphone, or plug in an instrument (e.g.: electric guitar, electric piano). You can plug your headphones into the audio interface and adjust the relative level of your own sound and what is coming from the computer (e.g.: your teacher). sweetwater.com has the UMC204HD and the UMC404HD on sale right now.
I do not have any experience with pick-up mics.
I tried Jitsi, but was unable to match Zoom’s audio quality.
The difference between Jitsi and Zoom was noticeable, but less important than the difference between the mic built in to the webcam and good mics. I use an SM58 for voice and an SM137 pointed at the cello just below the bridge, through a UMC204HD.
Prosthetic makeup is a thing. In that photo, he does not look like he was painted with an orange marker by a three-year-old. The news here is that he got a new makeup team.

Why is the Harris campaign not selling t-shirts that say “dangerous liberal”? Because I would buy five of them.
It was Mitch McConnell and the Republics that blocked Merrick Garland, not the Democrats.
the entire point of the court is to evaluate legislation against our constitution
That is not the entire point of SCOTUS. That is not even in the constitution; it is a power the court gave itself in Marbury v. Madison.
Most SCOTUS decisions are judging appeals against federal law (including the constitution). Occasionally they rule a federal law unconstitutional, but not usually.

I feel for the hundreds of engineers at Microsoft who have been yelling about these security issues since day one, but cannot say “I told you so” because they’d get fired.
Get an A/V receiver, a computer monitor or dumb TV, and speakers. Then you can get a Roku streaming player and it cannot show you anything when you do not have its input selected on the receiver.
Even an inexpensive pair of bookshelf speakers placed on either side of the TV will sound better than built-in TV speakers. Add a center speaker and a subwoofer drastically improved sound.
Non-4k AV receivers are dirt cheap used.
Apparently everybody before 1800 was a bad parent.
Wealthy people are mad that the government is not spending money on protecting their luxuries from the consequences of their own actions.
I love the analogy of Hummers overrunning Priuses, because while Hummers are more dangerous that Priuses, they both kill pedestrians, burn gasoline, and dump microplastics everywhere.
Salaries for tech workers went up due to supply and demand, and it started cutting into billionaire’s yacht money. So they fired a bunch of people (and used that money to increase executive compensation), which pushes salaries down, so in a year when they need to hire more people, they can hire at a lower rate, and then give themselves bonuses for being so smart.
Unionize.
The pizzagate bullshit did not come directly from WikiLeaks. WikiLeaks published John Podesta’s emails.
Then some conspiracy theorists made up a conspiracy theory that included made up stuff that they claimed was in the emails, but was not.
Talking a big game and then not doing anything? You have stumbled onto the secret plan of Joe Biden Democrats politicians Homo sapiens.
