You can't fix damage that has already happened, but you can stop more damage by limiting voltage as I understand it.

So far the AMD security flaws aren't causing physical CPU damage, so Intel definitely wins the screw up award.

The tunnels are encrypted. But I don't know if they use SSL or something else.

Meanwhile these days every time I happen to use Youtube without an adblocker I get the same car insurance ads that I've gotten for the last 4 years.

I looked around awhile ago and didn't really find anything good.

I think the best option is a raspberrypi and one of those 12-15" portable HDMI monitors.

They do make RF blocking paint, but it's very expensive and I have no idea if it would be enough to fully block microwave signals.

Your router doesn't handle LAN traffic so an upgrade shouldn't make any difference, unless you have multiple VLANs and are passing traffic between them and don't have a Layer 3 switch in use to handle inter-VLAN routing.

I would probably start with an iperf test for download bandwidth to the Pi from the server. If that looks OK then I would benchmark the NFS share for read speed on the Pi, make sure that's not doing something weird.

If that all looks good then I would probably suspect that Kodi either isn't using hardware acceleration properly, or the specific media codec is not supported by the Pi for hardware acceleration.

Security for a full blown web app is not trivial and has a bigger “attack surface” than a kdbx file moving p2p through my devices via syncthing.

Absolutely.

My Vaultwarden instance is only accessible via LAN or VPN though, I don't think I'd want to expose it to the internet.

Not really, it uses some GPU power when it's actively generating a response, but otherwise it just sits idle.

The other handy reason to keep torrent files around is you can use it to verify the data you have isn't corrupted or changed in some way.

DNS is only used initially on first load, after that the connection is made via IP and DNS isn't used.

It's just weird that after install it can't detect my hardware and pull the drivers it needs like windows does.
