You can use noip.com for free dynamic DNS

And if you’re concerned about whoever finding out you’re hosting illegal content you can have a WireGuard server and have everything go through it instead of being open to the web. This also has the advantage of being essentially undetectable from the outside

/bin is symlinked to /usr/bin, so it doesn’t matter.

My ISP (Bezeq, in Israel) has a list of approved SFP modules, and they can supply the modules themselves, but there’s no issue using your own router with their SFP module

Of course this will differ with your provider, you should check with them, though be aware the level 1 customer service reps might not know what you’re talking about

This does seem like an issue, I can help you free up some PCIe slots if you’d like

KDE’s Konsole, I love using it since it also integrates into Dolphin

I got a hEX S a few weeks ago and I love it

This sounds super interesting

Will this work in a situation where all clients are behind NAT? (Specifically cases where the Admin has no control of the NAT, like with CGNAT or clients on mobile networks)

And if it does, how do clients find each other without some central server?

I also read that fixes are being released now for the high-end chips, but the desktop fixes will be released significantly later

Why do ISPs put in the extra effort to make their service shittier? What benefit do they gain from forcing more load to their DNS servers?

Yes, Plymoith is just the splash screen, you can try disabling it and seeing if it helps

I’ve never heard of it either, but I came to the same conclusion as you

I don’t know if this applies to all phones, but my Android phone can act as hotspot while connected to a regular AP, and it does NAT so it appears as one device

Run a WireGuard VPN on your server and only forward its port (only UDP is needed) to your server.

I don’t know what software you plan on using to create media, but the Duet 3i isn’t a powerful machine, and it may struggle to do media creation

Either way, a solid distro for pretty much any hardware and experience level is Mint XFCE

I made my shell (fish) auto-delete invocations of rm from my history when I run them so I never get autocomplete from past rms

I think so, but I don’t know for sure

At the moment I’m doing primarily hopes and prayers

Don’t bother with the G4, the iGPU in the G5 will easily handle real-time transcoding for Jellyfin, and the extra RAM will be more useful if you’d want to try virtualization or other memory intensive workloads.

I can do 1080p streaming no problem on the iGPU of a core i5 4590 with no issues

I’d like to add that GB is pronounced Gigabyte, and GiB is pronounced Gibibyte. For the full list of units you can check this

If you use fish you can use abbreviations
