I love storing 2FA in the password manager, and I use a separate 2FA to unlock the password manager

Perhaps less AI in Mozilla?

My memory is pretty hazy but the cheat application emulated the process that teachers used to do a system reset.

Iirc, it let you press menu, select reset, confirm, and showed the (fake) confirmation screen.

Also IIRC, you had to install it from Mirage OS, which I don't think was an OS (?) but rather an app that everyone had to play games from.

They did that here too, but students would use a cheat program that made it look like teachers were resetting it, but really the memory was safe

Is there a minimum system requirements? I have bare metal nextcloud on a raspi 4, 4 GB ram, and it's pretty snappy.

I would consider migrating to the AIO version for more stability but IDK what toll the virtualization would take.

There is a good Adam Savage video on yt about the engineering of the thunderbolt or whatever cables.

They still should be shipped in bulk to the store but it makes more sense why they wouldn't be given away free

Afaik they're a discount brand? That you have to buy from Newegg? But I'm glad there is at least one option!

Lol they absolutely are subsidized. Look how expensive non-smart TVs are new

From reading the comments, I think you could be a lot leaner by selling the $100 setup fee, and telling people which "kit" is supported, and they buy that on their own.

That way you don't have to deal with any of the physical infrastructure of buying/selling/storing hardware, and people can do some customization.

However I do think you'd need to put some restrictions in place so that people don't buy cheap crap that doesn't work and expect you to set it up and support it. They have to buy the kit or other compatible hardware.

I'm not sure what services you'd support, but personally I'd be interested in something like a personal introduction and setup of

  • docker
  • proxmox
  • yunohost
  • backups / restore (practice restoring)
  • smb shared folder
  • pihole / pivpn (can you have wire guard and openvpn setup at the same time for different uses?

Maybe migration of

  • nextcloud

You could make different prices depending on what service they want, kind of like a bike stop.

I wouldn't want a perpetual subscription, but I could stomach something like $100 setup + $5/mo for limited support for a year.

Best thing for me is that community support also exists for all these things too, but it's hard to do it on your own sometimes.

We say this now but in 5 years, cars could go the way of smart TVs... sold at prices subsidized by advertisers.

Thanks for succinctly explaining what thunderbolt is
