Just buy a small, industrial CT scanner and scan your device. Compare the results to a device that you know hasn’t been tampered with.

You can get rid of the certificate errors by adding your CA to Firefox. Just make sure you keep the private key secure.
Set browser.fixup.fallback-to-https
to false
to stop Firefox from trying https if http doesn’t work.
That sounds like a good way to get their employees shot.
If you are just self hosting for your own use, just stick with letsencrypt or self signed certificates.
The paid certificates are for businesses where the users need to trust the certificate. They usually come with warranties and identity verification, which is important if you are accepting payments through your website, but it’s just a waste of money for personal use.
The music can be copied to new hard drives without any loss in quality, so why are they leaving their only copy on 30 year old hard drives?
BSD works great on my firewall, but I’m certainly not going to run it on my desktop. The hardware and software support just isn’t there yet.
The easiest way to get lossless music is to buy a CD and rip it. Of course you can always sail the high seas too. 🏴☠️
I’m surprised they didn’t put a time limit on the storage since they are not a file hosting platform.
Streaming sites are the source of the TV torrents until the season is over and the bluray is released.
AV1 is really only practical for content that has a high quality source like a bluray release. Most streaming sites aren’t using AV1 yet, so anything from them would have to be transcoded. Transcoding a low bitrate source to another format will cause a loss in quality. It’s not really worth it unless you want really small files to watch on your phone.
AV1 hardware acceleration is becoming fairly common, so I wouldn’t be surprised if the streaming sites start switching to it soon.
Modern games are not going to run well. Look for a Thinkpad with a Thunderbolt 3 port (make sure it actually has 4 PCIe lanes, some only have 2) and use an eGPU. Retro games will run fine on integrated graphics though.
That works until the battery puffs up and cracks the screen. Phones don’t last long when plugged in 24/7. Also keep in mind that WiFi cameras can easily be jammed.
It used to, but it’s had the option to save an actual video for a long time now.
I would just print it, fill it out by hand and scan it. Make them do the extra work if they send a PDF that doesn’t work in your software.
That’s what happens when you don’t keep windows locked inside a virtual machine.
Just because each device has a globally routable IP address doesn’t mean they can be accessed from outside your LAN. You still have to add a firewall rule to open a port to the device.
10,000 and 15,000 rpm drives were made obsolete by SSDs and were discontinued several years ago. They are slower than many modern 7,200 rpm drives.
It would have been nice if they came up with something shorter like .lan.
That’s why it’s a good idea to take a btrfs snapshot before updating or changing things. Snapshots are almost instant and sure save a lot of work if you break something.
