Milwaukee brand cordless with the battery its a lot more expensive but does semi tires with extra tires. It’s Set and forget air pressure. Handy as hell. Worth every penny if you really need a reliable unit.

Joplin and Obsidian.

Encrypt your data period. A burglar isn’t going to worry about your home lab unless it’s oozing money from the look of it.

Your family and friends will be the ones to snoop your data. So know that and prepare accordingly.

A thief is going to steal car wheels, weapons, tools, electronics that seem resellable, gold and jewelry, things of immediate value to sell or trade for most likely drugs. Quick cash.

I also heard Qidi is good and Prusa Core one.

I want 3d printing as a hobby and less tinkering. I have 500 to 1000 dollar budget. What’s that get me?

Its been that long 😅 no way

Buy more storage. Cheers. Awesome ratio.

You trying to coax me from librewolfs maturity for new browsers?

Victorinox Fibrox boning knife for the win. If you know you know. Cheap, excellent oversized handle. Multiple certifications. Great knife. It’s my go to kitchen knife. I Home cook everyday from raw and base resources.

Awesome thanks. Let me tinker with it this coming Monday and see how much of a pain it is to get setup. If I have any issues I’ll surely message you back. We are definitely looking to swap out an old recorder box. I’ve got plenty of PC parts so this is a non issue.

Meld on linux. It’s compares anything you throw at it. Code, terms of service anything at all 4 or 5 documents or PDFs at once.

How do you record directly do your NAS? I like this idea. I also like frigate but never used any of these. I’m new. So any advices help. I have a dozen cameras but not installed or setup.

I have not used docker but over my time of using Linux in general, reading, and understanding I think I can figure it all out I was just worried I didnt want to jump in over my head then pay say 10 a month or something for a local service. I love FOSS and do what I can but there’s a win/ lose if the time gets too demanding. I think I’ll check it out. What would you say you spent total time I have about a dozen cameras or more myself. Like start to finish time frame to setup? Where do you store data PC hard drives? HDDs?

How hard is it to really set up frigate? Having never done much, aside from router tweaks and basic networking. My self hosts have been through tailscale. But finding a good DVR is tough without cloud service BS.

Preach.

AMD no question. Avoid nvidia drivers And markup, and drivers get better with age. 6700xt best budget go up from there.

I haven’t ever found a better open source keyboard or voice type than futo. It really is that good. With so many languages. I’m unsure why some of them got downvoted but oh well. I’m sure there’s a ton more to add that are privacy focused open source apps but those were off my head.

VeraCrypt, Clonezilla, Joplin, Futo voice and Futo keyboard, Sentry, Wasted, Untracker, WTMP app, Fossify app suite.

Garmin then use the FOSS Garmin connect app I forget the name. You get all the fancy important data and monitoring. None of the worries. Or just don’t sync your data and monitor over time on the watch itself. Batteries are second to none. Garmin is the way to go. I’ve tried them all.

Ok that makes sense I was just worried the usual open trackers were a bad idea for some reason.
