Can this work with the "off the shelf" mesh routers.

Please tell me ya'll actually talk to your ducks? Just me? Alright...

Yeah but can it host PiHole?

We have so much computing power at home and the chances you have good reliable Internet at home are better than before. I revived 5 year old PCs and it's way too much computing power for my self host needs. I'd have to pay $200+ a month for the same compute power in the cloud. Even a Raspberry Pi with 8GB is capable of running quite a bit for fractions of a penny in electricity.

There's so many services where I'm like, wow what am I even paying for? Email is one where I know exactly what I'm paying for.

Sync is $20 to remove ads no? Where is it $100?

Update: nevermind I see it here for sync ultra

This one triggers the entire spectrum of human emotion.

Does it support syncing photos from your phone? That's the only thing I need to get off Google Photos, I love how seamless it is.

I didn't realize how broken SearX was until I switched to SearXNG.

Likely because the apps need access to the host and the policies were likely blocking it since it's non-interactive.

You can secure your tunnels using the Access menu and then adding an application. It should be somewhat straight-forward but you're basically looking to create an access policy and then adding the rules you want. For example a simple one is to add an allow rule for certain emails. When you enter your email an access code will be sent to you before you can access the application resource. That's just one of many ways to secure it using their application config and access policies.

If you're comfortable with using Cloudflare, you can use their zero trust tunneling and setup an application layer that adds auth to those services. I have mine protected by my GitHub login.

Python is not very good at this. TypeScript with prettier will very often add missing commas or semi colons for me. I never have to worry about whitespace before the formatter comes into play.

Python's whitespacing felt nice in the days when there wasn't a ton of tooling around auto formatting but now it feels like a burden.

I just tried arctic char for the first time because they were out of salmon and I actually prefer it to salmon now.

No apologies needed! Cheers!

Are you comfortable in command line? There's psql or there's https://www.pgadmin.org/

Oh yeah, not meaning to hate on your suggestion, just giving a fair warning to those who are looking to take the plunge. I consider myself advanced and librewolf drove me crazy for a few days but stuck with it and found a balance of settings that I like.

The biggest example of this is YouTube. Sometimes it runs fine but sometimes videos just don't load or freeze.

The default settings of librewolf would drive the average user crazy. I'm not a fan of Firefox and use Librewolf myself but Firefox has sensible defaults for an average user that would be a net positive coming from Chrome. Just an FYI thinking of making the switch.

For additional context of those curious, Librewolf is very hardened by default. When you close your browser all site data is wiped (this can be turned off). Most people don't mess with their browser settings though... there's also a lot of little things that are disabled by default that will make people think the browser is broken e.g. canvas requests are silently denied by default, it's just not realistic for most people to use librewolf.

I closed my laptop when it asked for the Wordle of the day.
