I guess that depends: are you okay with literally anyone accessing this computer. If so, change nothing.

If you’re trying to just give yourself access to your own computer, stop forwarding ports and download Tailscale.

The tapes are $5 but the drive was $400.

It’s linear, so you have to pull a whole backup at a time, but it is possible to store multiple unique backups on a single tape, and only pull one.

Unironically how I use LTO-6 tapes.

2.5TB of storage for ~$5/tape on ebay.

Never delete anything. If the authorities ever come after me, discovery is going to be hilarious.

Imagine trusting Torrents when Usenet is right there.

Polymaker is a Chinese supplier, selling to California residents, while also running ad campaigns through ghost gun content creators aimed at California residents, defining themselves explicitly as a ghost gun ingredient.

If they didn’t want to get caught up in this, they shouldn’t have gotten involved in the illicit arms business. But they wanted to be known as the plastic supplier that is cool with you making ghost guns, and that isn’t going to fly in California.

Plastic suppliers that don’t advertise themselves explicitly as being part of the ghost gun supply chain will be fine.

I think I understand more now, I just fundamentally don’t understand that zig-zag of joins on the back if the point was better wire management.

Power strips run in parallel that’s one point of failure for the whole rig.

Your setup runs in series. That’s on point of failure per powered device in the rig.

And if it doesn’t run in series, you really need to explain the wiring on the back of your rig, because I cannot make sense of it otherwise.

TWO genocides!?

WireGuard doesn’t work at all because it is blocked in OP’s country. OP wants an alternative. Dumping all security and encryption is certainly an alternative, but I am certain that this is counter to what OP is trying accomplish, given their initial choice of Tailscale (WireGuard on steroids).

Sure, but they shouldn’t.

You will learn a ton. Also, you will spend a lot of money hosting an activitypub instance. I run a server for fun, and it’s about $40/month to handle the absolute firehose of assets I receive 24/7.
