MTB tire not centered relatively to fork & seemingly crooked stem

I've installed a FOX 36 performance elite grip2 on my Trek Roscoe Gen 3, but I just noticed today that the tire is not centered relatively to the fork as you can see in the pictures: it seems to be closer to the right side than to the left on the image.

Also, I noticed that the stem also seems a bit crooked relatively to the bar and the tire/frame, I don't know if this could be caused by the same thing as the off-center tire.

What could be causing those two? Should I be worried or just continue riding?

Could it be caused by a potentially poorly dished wheel or something else? Is the fork crooked?

Thanks!

YouTube Video Playback High Processor Usage on Mac

Firefox seems to be the only browser using more processing power while playing YouTube videos on MacOS. Playing videos on both Safari and Chrome consume roughly 6W of power on my M4 Pro MacBook Pro while Firefox hogs 8-12W. How can I fix this power consumption problem?

- I disabled Ambient mode, but it only helped slightly

- I tried using Enhanced-H264ify, but it disables HDR videos as they require VP9 decoding.

I've recently came across this fork on sale, but as opposed to what I found on the internet, it is described to have a maximum tire width of 29x2.4" instead of 29x2.6". Has the seller made a mistake here? I've contacted them, but I haven't received a reply yet.
