Yeah, I’ve only worked in the US.

That’s what my employer offered I guess 🤷🏽♂️ when I was a university teacher I paid zero for deductibles but they took out like 100$ pre tax every month IIRC. Right before I quit they started charging for copays and I was pretty pissed.
I pay 9.79$/month for medical only, pre-tax, myself only on the plan, working for a mental healthcare nonprofit. My medical copays have been free lately for routine office visits. I have to get labs done 4 times a year for the meds I take and those have all been free so far. Because they’re classed as “preventative” to make sure nothing goes wrong with the meds, it’s free 🤷🏽♂️. Non preventative things have a 2000$ deductible, so I have to pay that much before medical care for the calendar year becomes free to me. That means that if I get sick in December, I have to pay 2000$to cover for December and again in January to cover for the next year.
Dental coverage is free. I pay 40$/visit as a copay for cleanings and all else (if I’m not in perfect health) I pay 30% of that bill. Recently I had periodontitis and my bill after treatment was 600$.
Small point here too: SMS used to be a paid plan option in the US. I never paid for an SMS plan because iMessage was free over data (I just wouldn’t receive texts from Android users). There was a good amount of time when iMessage was legitimately a great option.
The lack of CarPlay/Android Auto makes Tesla a non-starter
Nvidia cards are supported with the proprietary drivers; the game I play (Stepmania, OutFox) historically was without artifacts on nvidia systems. Nowadays, Wayland is moving forward, and nvidia is just behind on supporting it compared to AMD. According to this thread below you should be fine as long as you use nvidia drivers from version 560+.
