VPN would still work for iPhone I imagine. Small whitelist of DNS would do 90%+ of the job.

You aren't wrong but my goals to pay off my car loan first and that should be done in a year. Sucky timing I guess.

Its a shame I don't have enough for solar yet. If you get it now its like getting a free battery if they are all getting a 40% hike. Probably gonna get rid of the tax incentive too cause the rich need it more too right?!

The biggest thing I learned is give postgres a crap ton of ram especially if you use autosubscribe to communities bot. Nginx logs can tell you response times and timeouts, timeouts will be from slow queries and if you get a ton, need to bump up your RAM.

Using the igpu might be problematic for transcoding if you need that. I'd recommend older intel / Asus NUCs if you want a mini PC. 3 year warranty, built for Enterprise, tall version has room for a 7mm tall sata SSD or HDD along with nvme m.2 SSD.

I think if you do Asus 12gen + they have another m.2 slot though it is the smaller one 2242. Doing all this you can upgrade it to 64GB RAM, 8TB m.2 2280, 8TB SATA SSSD, and 1TB M.2 2242. In homelab especially with mini PCs the limit is usually RAM / storage rather than CPU.

I got 4 11th gen with 64 GB RAM each and 32TB of SSD storage. I recommend avoiding QLC SSD as much as possible. Aim for TLC , MLC, or SLC. Higher storage capacity tends to be QLC or TLC, QLC has shortest endurance and slowest speeds.

Those disappearing messages aren't just fun - they're actually helping protect your privacy by not keeping your data around forever.

I highly doubt this is true.

I try to protect it but apparently I got a report that my social got stolen recently. Health insurance sucks, we keep getting massive increase in costs, then swap providers, then my data is stored in more and more systems waiting to be breached.

Huh I really expected it to be 2 zeros at least.

With a password manager I'd argue its better but supports still not all there yet. I am waiting on bitwarden right now to support mull, basically its blacklisted, but it was added in the last 2 weeks so now its a waiting game.

I think something like this would do? You can search the list of supported devices there. Search by exposes power.

Forgejo supports a ton of repos including docker / OCI images.

I just swapped to mull today. Fennec is only on fdroid or build it yourself. Fdroid updates take a week for official repo. Mull can get faster updates through DivestOS repo. Firefox just had a huge 0day and fennec is currently vulnerable.

 

I am looking for something to replace Fitbit for Android / WearOS.
