Right now I'm in Denmark where wood firing is fairly common.
The village of around 2200 is heated through a district heating system firing the straw from surrounding farms. In Denmark this is typical for villages of this size.
So the first question is, would this also emit lead?
Realize straw is a seasonal product, wood grows over many decades.

At night we love the nice radiation of our wood stove, here wood is bought by the m^3 and per year we use around 2.5 m^3 (Is around 0.7 cord and we pay around DKK 2200 for it (CND 460, USD 240).

Over the past years I've mainly used Zoom for video calls and was happy with it.
These days the company is more and more 'forcing' Teams for these calls (I work via the Brave browser on Linux).
The problem with Teams is I can't get the video on a separate window or screen, Zoom is by itself separate.
WebEx works for video but is hardly ever used.

My server got compromised last week by this, Slashdot is quite far behind.

There's two new exploits in the Copy Fail class that do privilege escalation everyone should be worried about on shared servers. Copy Fail 2: Electric Boogaloo (https://github.com/0xdeadbeefnetwork/Copy_Fail2-Electric_Boogaloo) and Dirty Frag (https://github.com/V4bel/dirtyfrag)

I am rather disappointed that Ubuntu sat on these LPEs for a month without releasing a fix.
