No, have the company buy a laptop, and if necessary, also have them buy the hardware that allows for proper network separation, if not already available.
Just another thing to be aware of.

I know it is somewhat of an accepted practice, and a lot of people lack the means or the knowledge to handle it any other way, but I’d still like to raise awareness that you’re basically inviting a foreign actor into your network.
The days were people would trust corporations, including their employers, to be generally benevolent and to do the right thing are long over.
This is absolutely correct. Heck, you’re free to deny that based on any reasoning, maybe the shoddy icon of the work app doesn’t match your phone wallpaper.
The phone is your private property, if an employer requires an app to be installed to do your job, they can provide a phone.
I would also never let corporate IT manage a device, e. g. a laptop connected to my private network at home.
May I ask what your process for the linocut was?
I watched a few videos before I realized Bobby Fingers is Mr. Chrome, and it made me unreasonably happy.
I am on my 4th personal TUXEDO laptop, never had any issues. I actually started giving them to the devs at my company, no complaints so far.
They don’t offer my choice of OS, and I wouldn’t use a preinstalled OS anyway, so I can’t comment on that.
Oh, tell me about it. Someone in my household has a habit of regularly creating watermelon that tastes like onion.
Here is the poem by Alexander Blok this painting illustrates / is inspired by:

Modern fridges have compartments with seals that keep the moisture a lot longer, designed particularly with vegetables and fruit in mind.
I was thinking of getting an air fryer, but I was missing additional applications. I think you might have convinced me.
Honestly, I often like a fadeout, e. g. keeping a slow bass beat around, fade everything else out slowly, sounds like a heart beating its last beats. Super cliché, but I like it.
Yeah, wanted to comment exactly that. You could literally watch him become crazier with every upload. At first I did overlook the odd comment, but he eventually went full nutjob and I had to unsubscribe.
Hey it’s me, Jeromy Gride. I’m dying.
I can assure you that this won’t work on any modern automotive paint… well, maybe if Tesla comes up with paint next year it will start working.
Modern automotive paints are basically several layers of rather resistant plastic / metal flakes bonded to the metal body of the car, protected by several layers of different plastic (clear coat), no bologna will hurt them.
If you ever had to strip any modern 2K paint off of anything, you know what I’m talking about. Luckily, we live in the digital age and you don’t have to believe me, so here’s some random guy I have never seen before today testing the bologna myth:
Generally all correct, here is a resource with a lot of in-depth information and additional links:

It’s not true that precision measurements are impossible with low value resistors, a lot of measurement equipment works exactly like that - it might just be more expensive than what the manufacturer is willing to budget for.
Tuxedo also offers products with an aluminum body, and while they do import the hardware from China, you get the local service and warranty guarantees any company in the EU must provide, so that’s fine by me.
Also, honest question: what do you think a unique laptop is, in particular when buying from a mass consumer brand like Lenovo? I really can’t figure out what that’s supposed to mean.
Surely not. But also many employees won’t even ask for it, and change will only happen if people care about it.
So first, raise awareness, and naturally, implement those things at any companies you manage or own.
I’m not saying quit your job and become homeless if your employer won’t corporate with you on the issue. Everyone should think about how this could potentially affect them and what they can do within the constraints they operate in, though.
As someone else in this thread said, a separate (VLAN, guest) network for work devices, reasonable access rules etc. can go a long way. Eventually, I would like this to become unacceptable though.
