- Comment on What are your favorite 1000+ hour games? 3 days ago:
Not a favourite anymore but still beats my second most played games by a factor of 4… Warframe was fun at the beginning and really clicked at about 200hrs. I left after about 2200hrs because I burned out but it still has a place in my heart.

- Comment on Whats the best website to get Electronic components for small projects in Europe/Germany? 3 weeks ago:
The cheapest ones will be from china, be it eBay or AliExpress. When buying via eBay never forget to look at the delivery date, I’ve waited up to months because I didn’t check the date…
Depending on your location you may check your local area. Some cities have small private electronics shop, they’re usually a bit more expensive but a) you get your stuff on hand and b) they can often provide feedback and knowledge and give some tips.
And with some luck you may find some broken thing on Kleinanzeigen, which you can salvage for parts.

- Comment on How do I learn about DIY modern electronics? 9 months ago:
I haven’t read all the prior comments but I would suggest to learn the basic of electricity. Despite the biggest part of electronics is low voltage you may meet some parts with higher voltage. Learn the dangers what to look out for and what to avoid at any cost. Safety at first no matter what!!!
If you can get some technic beginner books or PDFs from middle schools your good to go. After that you can look for broken electronic at your local Craigslist or what ever it’s called in your area/country and start to dismantle them and source for parts.
And trust me about the security and dangers at this one. Working as a certified industrial electronic technician in Germany since 2011…

Avast bought it.
There is “I still don’t care about cookies” which is a fork of the original or use any other plugins mentioned.
- Comment on Playing Video Games Lead To Social Disconnection. It is True? 9 months ago:
This may be truth but I down voted because addiction and gaming were thrown into the same pot. You have to differentiate this topics a little… It’s the same like: car drivers don’t give a crap about the environment and drive like a*holes or people interested in football are drunken hooligans…
Too much of something is literally almost bad for a person.
- Comment on Noob question about PiHole 10 months ago:
AFAIK the FritzBox switchs mainly to the faster DNS Server. I tried to use Quad9 with cloudfare as the second DNS server, most of the time cloudfare was the used since it was a bit faster.

- Comment on Useful apps to self-host 11 months ago:
Is it custom build NAS or something like Synology?
As already mentioned for proper backups you should locate the NAS somewhere else.
I’m not an expert by any means so don’t take my word for it. I’ve tinkerd with some pies befor but this was my proper first project: a NAS for my family (multiple households).
If it’s for personal use, you can use a VPN to your local network. It’s by far the safest option and easier to setup.
I went with OMV (openmediavault) for local sharing as OS + Docker + portainer. For the backups and access I went with Docker Nextcloud and Docker Swag (letsencrypt) and a reserve proxy with duckdns since I don’t have a fixed IP. Nextcloud setup was the easiest part and not really a hassle. With a VPN you won’t need to tinker with the “access from net” stuff.
For syncing files on Android I would recommend Autosync since it’s the most reliable one IMO. No other OS tested so far.
Nextcloud can handle a lot on its own and for something special you will find a proper plugin. For the download needs you may find some docker containers.

Since nobody mentioned it before, Stanley parable.
If I had to describe it with one sentence: you’re not playing the game, it plays you. I played a lot of games but this one stuck in my head. It awards for thinking outside the box.
Any other title like antichamber were already mentioned ^^
