My father in law was a commercial pilot and he had a home server just to keep photos and travel writing while he was flying and away from home a lot. I helped him upgrade some of that to the cloud, since that makes for sense when on the other side of the country, but he still has a bunch of stuff at home.

I like this answer the most

what stats do dicks impact? -4 STR isn’t a thing anymore so a mimic that chomps me johnson has no impact on min/maxing, and is therefore irrelevant.

If they get root or admin they can hack the chip itself.

But minor exploits, nada, no issue, you good. Gotta get root to make it happen.

Problem is if you, as they say, get got, you have no way of knowing if they’re in your CPU, and no way to fix if they did – basically gotta trash it and replace.

Looks like a usb, and a molex power connector. You’d have to break out a multimeter to figure out what’s active and what’s a ground though, and then have to bit bang your way to figure out what each connection does.

Valve Index ftw

Shame it’s not GURPS, as was originally intended

Timing attacks are a thing and behavior can be correlated by metadata and situational considerations, e.g. Bob only uses his VPN at night, and only for 21 minutes on average. Jane uses her VPN from roughly 830am to 515pm M-F. What do those patterns mean?

But so long as it works and the costs are low, use the VPN constantly. And always check for leaks.

Still safer than zx

I use Firefox for most purposes, but have chromium on there for anything related to grad school. Which includes, among other things, Office 365 and Outlook Online. On Fedora 38 if it matters.

Used to use Thunderbird with enigmail for PGP back in the day, it was good. The separate browser is fine now, but T bird is a fine option.

Huh doesn’t require enterprise subscription to see that solution

Separate subsets, segregated traffic. Easy to avoid crosstalk by setting channels further apart or using 2.4ghz and 5ghz

At home I have one SSID as a main wifi, and the other is guest wifi and IoT or other random devices.

Main downside is getting it setup and maintenance.

If you search for delete all comments you can usually find some js, or greasemonkey pattern, or script, etc.

I’ve had success using random howtos there. This new TOS change is news to me and I may delete everything again, will share what I used if/when

DDG used to use Google and is now Bing on the backend.

What are the use cases? More RAM is nice but could be overkill if you’re bottlenecked by CPU, and if this is for running a few simple VMs or as storage then you may not need much of this.

RAID is generally a good thing but don’t get complacent, follow the 3-2-1 method. I.e. you might be better off saving the cash and using a backup script to push stuff you really care about to the cloud, and pay for cloud fees vice hw.
