  Do you remember that time Netflix removed [insert series title]? I basically have my own private version of Netflix. That way nobody can take my favorite series away from me without warning.

  I built a home server based on an Intel N100 motherboard a while ago. I’ve put proxmox on it and run my Home Assistant installation, Nextcloud, several other stuff and even my router as an OpenWRT VM!

  I chose to go the N100 motherboard route mainly due to the flexibility it offers. But you can just buy a N100 based NUC and you get effectively the same performance and incredible low power consumption.

  You are not blocking just Chrome though. You are also blocking Vanadium on GrapheneOS.

  Smart products themselves are not the issue. The issue is making everything cloud based. The solution is companies designing their products so they can be controlled over the network.

  It’s a fucking bed! It doesn’t need a persistent connection to some server. The problem is that they also want to mine and sell your data.

  There is special category for Internet of Shit devices, that not only are cloud based but also require a persistent connection to a server to even execute basic functions.

  To be fair, I doubt that someone who even knows how to verify a hash when would see an exe instead of an iso would think that this looks fine.
