ZeroTier might suit your use case. It’s super easy to setup.

Not your point, but I actually do recommend torrenting linux ISOs… often much faster than direct downloads from the devs’ websites. ;-)

I’m a huge fan of Ubiquiti APs, and run their Unifi controller on a Raspberry Pi. Sadly, their code is proprietary - but it basically just works.

Maybe see if ‘rclone mount’ solves the problem for ya. Rclone can often be a super handy swiss army knife for stuff like this.

Oh, Brother.

No seriously, buy Brother printers instead and avoid (at least some of) this enshitification.

Good choices. I too run Librewolf by default, with ungoogled Chromium standing by for the occassional asshat website intentionally designed to work exclusively on Chrome

in my opinion, yes.

I run real-time full band rehearsals with jamulus.io for low latency audio, plus any video tool of your choice (with the audio muted). we use muted Jitsi Meet for the video feed, but it really doesn’t matter. it’s all about the Jamulus audio

Take a look at xbrowsersync.org

Safeway. That’s only one of the several good reasons why I don’t shop there.

If you buy a new Pixel and then run an alt rom like graphene or lineage, you’re most likeley costing Google money. I believe they manufacture the Pixel at a small loss because they expect to make their money back harvesting and selling your personal data. Denying them that should mean you get decent hardware at a fair price, without really “supporting” Google as much as you fear. I could be wrong, but I’ve definitely seen that mentioned before.

+1 for KeePassXC

I have seen more (client-owned) La Cie drives fail than I can remember. I wouldn’t touch their crap with a 10 foot cable. Their on-board hardware controllers are the worst, cheapest garbage I’ve encountered on the “name brand” market.

Yes! Murphy’s Stout is also available in the US. Might not be as good as yours tho

The main problem I see you running into is that if they decide for any reason to go after you (even just cause now they want your domain), it won’t matter if they have a solid legal standing or not. They can afford to tie you up in court indefinitely, and you will likely be unable to outlast them.

Source: This is exactly what happened to my family. We have the same last name as a large corporation, and in the early days of the internet we registered a domain based on a name-related slogan they had used in an older commercial compaign. We were just hosting a basic family website and email, and clearly had no conflicting or overlapping IP. We even checked in advance - they did not own a trademark for the slogan or the name.

A few years later, they decided the wanted the domain for themelves, but instead of offering us a fair price to purchase, they first filed a trademark for the slogan and then sued us for the domain. If we’d had the funds to continue fighting we would have eventually won, but we’re just a middle class family and they’re a large multi-national corporation with near infinite funds to pay their lawyers. We lost the domain, and it cost us a small fortune in legal fees fighing it.

Proceed with caution.

I still prefer ‘Xitter’
