It can only be drugs and/or nepotism and/or bank of mum and dad.

You just need replaceable wires that are bound to get replaced more often and more expensive instead

Sorry you're right. I'm actually not across the matter enough to comment and have only heard the "autistic kid" part through like third hand knowledge.

Although everyone is on the spectrum somewhere, especially in the IT space.

But you're right, the take away from this is I should learn about the topic better.

Backdoor? Even if it isn't blatantly obvious - some autistic kid will notice a program runs 0.05 seconds slower and will work it out.

At the very least if you're going to be backdooring your code you might as well add "back door goes here" to your PR so we can easily cut it out when the hard fork happens without the backdoor included.

"Don't you want to support the creators"

Yeah, preferably them rather than the majority share go to Spotify or Netflix.

Never meet you heroes

I mean we have toasters like this in Australia for like $10 with the same cable management design. Seems pretty standard to me.

1. Password manager such as Bitwarden, generate long strong passwords for everything. 1a. SSO (By which I mean "log in with Google/Microsoft/Apple/Whatever") nothing.
2. Hardware keys, MFA on anything that doesn't support one.
3. Degoogle, de-megacorp.

VPN shouldn't even be in the top 10. The benefits are dubious at best and the jury is still out on whether it makes you more of a target.

Multi factor authentication is about having multiple factors for authenticating you:

Something you know (like a password) Something you have (with you - a hardware key, smart card or token) Something you are (biometrics, fingerprint, faceid)

So the idea is that you'll have two points of identification.

But if you have your TOTP token and your generated password in the same password manager - that's effectively only one factor of authentication.

If you've gotten this far you should probably consider a WebAuthn key like the Ubikey to be the "something you have".

Just run your own Jellyfin

Somes gonna get the little nanites squirted into them, but not the robot.

Torrentleech is, IPT is great

Change your downloader to freeleech only and continue downloading.

Also helps if you pick up something like large freeleech ROM or movie packs.

We need to get that number down to like 9 at most. Better yet, 3.

If you're pirating purely because it's free you're an asshole.

If you're pirating because the current platforms are too expensive, just as bad as cable, shows missing and routinely has service issues - you're good.

Probably pretty bad isolation in containers though.

How do you get your work to pay for certs? 17 certs would be like 100k for me. And I don't mean salary.

It's all relative.

More private than Google or Meta? Hell yes.

Suitable for whistleblowers and journalists reporting war crimes? Nooooo.

But Jitsi you can run it yourself and you should.

Understand that the public instance is provided freely as an alternative to Google and Meta, and whilst I agree encryption should be the default - it does add overhead for something probably running on donations.

My advice would be to enable iOS screen time settings and set YouTube to a small limit.

Once the limit is reached it'll nag you every 15 minutes.

If you're absolutely incapable of controlling yourself you could set up a second account to act as a parent which you'll need to seek approval from to extend or rather lock you out completely.
