thats not really using crypto... it's more like indirect crypto usage. You can also just buy giftcards with cash... fail to see your point...

I've made a comment about NASs a while ago explaining mostly the important parts of it (https://lemmy.ca/comment/1524030), but to answer your questions :

Can you create a NAS with any modem or is the fritzbox particularly good for this job?

I would not recommend using a router/modem as your nas server because there are better ways to do this. Simplest way would be to get a small computer (like a raspberry pi, thinkcenter, etc) and attack external harddrives. Then, next step would be to choose how you want to share and use the storage; I mostly recommend NextCloud for beginners/intermediates, super easy to setup and start using out of the box.

For you I would recommend following my comment. Once you're comfortable with wanting to make your own NAS, then I would recommend you to look into hardware and start planning out a build. If it is too expensive, look towards small, mini computers like rpi, thinkcenter, librecomputer, etc. and then slowly expand from there.

Yes, making a NAS is expensive at the start, if you do decide to make one with all brand new gear, but it is worth it for your privacy imo. The trip is long, sometimes annoying as fuck, but the end-result is infinitely better.

If you have questions let me know!

I made a comment a little bit ago relating to creating a NAS, but the steps are generally the same.

If you have questions do let me know, open to answering!

Would recommend self hosting the drive aspect, cheaper and you retain your own information all the while.

Pixel phones are fine with a custom OS. Linux phones are horrible both with user interface and battery life.

Instead of black hole (which has horrible catalog of music) or Musify, just selfhost Deemix+Navidrome.

Instead of startpage use something more reputable like qwant or duckduckgo.

Proton can be debatable because of it's past, though they have since fixed it. Alternatives include : tutanota, mailbox.org, etc. Alot of good email alternatives exist.

It's been 3 years and no one has done a thing about this, people who've stayed on reddit simply do not care about their privacy.

Going to do this from now on, but I have only gotten 4-5 captchas in total, so nothing much to worry about imo.

We're in Canada, which to me is even more surprising.

Looks like something you'd get from a coral reef lol. Would for sure devour this given the chance!

Drooling over this right now, looks fantastic. I'm plenty sure the guests at the party were more than satisfied!

godspeed brother.

Another benefit of moving to lemmy, less tracking. Win win, I must say.

Edit: another 3 year old post. Sorting by hot is more than definitely bugged... Hope they fix it somewhat soon, cause idk what is going on.

Agreed. Looks like spaghetti with tomato sauce to me... could be wrong though.

My son tried to do this but apparently there were security guards infront of the entrances of both theaters, presumably to prevent watching one then going to the next one.

Yeah I got you :

Mine got destroyed within 6 months of using. I walk a lot, bike from time to time with them, but never any extreme stuff. The stitching on the left sides of my shoes are practically gone, showing the insole from the outside... I guess it depends on which shoe you get from vans, since I am certain I've had pairs last longer than this.

Wouldn't google's DRM be considered a monopoly? Not in the US, but don't they have laws and regulations against this type of stuff?

I actually enjoyed the cartoon effects, super refreshing for an arcade racer. But, I didn't like the other parts of the game.

Hope they don't fuck this one up and go back to their roots.

Pretty sure to make those chicken legs all you do is take a knife and push all the meat towards one end. My wife makes the best "lollipop" chicken, though I'm not 100% sure on the method.

Maybe I'm unlucky, but I've gotten quite a few captchas.
