Which hardware is recommended? Trying to search through their list a ton of it is already on old-stable and seemingly ready to be eol-d. I’m not really interested in spending on new routers playing whack a mole with security updates every 2 years. I’d rather have poor performance and a longer lifecycle versus unknown likely marginal support window.

I use pf as the firewall on my server, what is the difference/reason for the opnsense fork?

They also list my current one as unsupported unfortunately, I think because of the Broadcom WiFi chip in it.

Losing weight too fast can destroy your organs, so this is a very stupid take.
- Comment on Microsoft Confirms Windows 11 Bug That Locks Users Out of the C: Drive 3 weeks ago:
Man it’s been a long time but essentially 98 was the first one to allow for plug and play without drivers if I’m remembering right. That and a few other stability issues made the original crash constantly, including during the demo at a tech show. They re-released it as a second edition that fixed most of it. If you bought the computer towards 1999 they had fixed it.

Or vista lol, or windows 98 that was so bad they essentially recalled it and re-released it as a second version?

Where I live 2k will get you a car with a bad transmission or thrown rod in the engine.
- Comment on outlawing pedestrians 1 month ago:
To be fair, the road design is literal highways all the way around it making it impossible to safely walk. It’s terrible design and super hazardous to pedestrians but there is a safety reason behind the rule.

- Comment on The upgrade argument for desktops doesn't stand up anymore 2 months ago:
Desktops also offer better heat dissipation and peripheral replacements extending the life of the unit. It can be difficult for most folks to replace a laptop display or even battery nowadays frankly.
- Comment on Do you have a plan for your self-hosted data if you die? 2 months ago:
Realistically no. My wife primarily uses the ad blocking dns and smb file storage. I’ve built the server on FreeBSD so those should run near forever if I passed, and she knows she has until the server dies to find somewhere else to put her photos. Past that there’s a maintenance document next to the will, which includes everything up to how to replace drives on zfs, but I doubt she’d use it if I’m being honest.
