The XZ Utils backdoor, discovered last week, and the Heartbleed security vulnerability ten years ago, share the same ultimate root cause. Both of them, and in fact all critical infrastructure open source projects, should be fixed with the same solution: ensure baseline funding for proper open source maintenance.
I've been warming up to switching to GrapheneOS for months. Last month I bought a Pixel 8 (which is the buggiest effing phone I've ever owned, good job Google). I've just been waiting to have the bandwidth....
Forsure, but if you still had the download and went to the sites official page today and could check if it matches to alleviate fear you downloaded a fake version etc.
I'm sitting here thinking about projects, wishing I could fire up a new VM and install Debian while I sit here on the couch. Then I would have a fresh VM ready to go after I recover from sitting on the couch....

Okay, let me start by saying that I really do love Home Assistant. I believe that it is a fantastic piece of software, with very dedicated developers that are far more talented than I. Although, that being said, I strongly disagree with a number of their design choices....
I will first admit that I am quite ignorant to Home Assistant.
I am a happy openHAB user for 5+ years. Have you considered switching to see if you like it?
I tried Home Assistant once or twice but never felt comfortable enough to switch.
I run stuff locally and can connect over VPN to my home and operate as if I am inside the home. I have not looked into these other cloudflare tunnels or tail scale as I don't think it would provide any advantage to my current setup.
OpenVPN server running on my router does the trick.
I had to look that up. So ya, I understand your problem a bit better. Wish I could offer some solutions.
For anyone interested..
"Starlink uses Carrier-Grade NAT (CGNAT) to avoid the need for 1,000s of IPv4 addresses, which can be a problem for some users due to how they are using Starlink. However, some VPN services like PureVPN can be used to bypass CGNAT restrictions on Port Forwarding.1 CGNAT prevents direct access to the Starlink antenna from the internet, making setting up a VPN or hosting services challenging. There is no direct public IP address assigned to the Starlink antenna, which hinders traditional methods of setting up a VPN server or hosting services like port forwarding and DMZ access"

I am interested and also looking for good resources, buddies that do similar.... So if you find the spot or create something I could see myself in there. I like to hardware tinker, solder, flash tasmota to sonoffs31 plugs, esp3266, esp32.
Maybe just find a spot to start a conversation and see what comes of it. Maybe list a couple recent projects and what you want to do next. See what other folks are working on and If enough interest.
I'm currently working on some VLAN segmentation for IOT and have several IOT things blocked from accessing the Internet (like my network printer and some smart lights) (I run openHAB for home automation locally) , I also have some DNS blocking.
I have some USB logic analyzers and want to play with sigroc but haven't got around to that. Also built an oscilloscope and want to learn to use it more (might make a signal generator so I can use some known frequencies and such) to ensure the oscilloscope is dialed in.
I am planning to get an external storage for Ventoy use. My current random usb 3.1 stick writes .iso-files with only 10-15 mbps only. I found this webpage for usb stick speed comparison:...
I have a 32gb USB flash drive I got from Protectli with some other purchases I mad (it was cheap and is tiny and metal) I was surprised how fast it was, so I am using it for my ventoy boot disk and have 15+ isos on it.
I actually just used it last night and copied windows10, debian 12.5 and Linux mint isos

I've not thought about nor worried about wear and tear. I did a search but didn't find anything. Are you just being cautious? Or perhaps you only access files occasionally?
Either way, you may want to creat a bash alias in your .bashrc file so that you can type a simple command like mountnas or 'nas' and you might have another to run the umount command to unmount it.
Since my NAS runs my camera recordings and backups and some containers, I figure wear from mounting conveniently shouldn't be an issue...

Mine is Strawberry since it has a ton of options and plays a ton of formats. It’s also (distant) fork of Amarok 1.4 and integrates well with KDE Plasma. I’m curious what other people are using these days. What’s your favorite player?
I’m using flatpack version which is much more up to date.
I think the big thing is compatibility with current Microsoft office versions.
So there is benefit from being on a newer version unless you’re only using Libre and not sending each other people who are opening it in Microsoft office versions.

Looks really neat! Will you apply letters / paint for identifying the keys?
I really like the construction, if I could try something and customize it to my hands and my workflow / comfort / ergonomics / productivity AND customize the firmware (key macros, binds etc) that could be really neat!
What is your particular use case? Gaming? Streaming? Programming? Typing all day?

This is what makes me skip over these cool looking custome keyboards since I started seeing them 5years ago. Only today did I see a really neat looking one with carbon fiber base that got me thinking.

Have you heard about pihole for DNS blocking ? You m might have success when at home on wifi as this would greatly cut down on ads and trackers.
Otherwise, if you think Firefox is too slow to pirate (not sure I understand that, but ok) you can try another browser … maybe try Brave? Ya, maybe some negative publicity lately, but I’m not sure it bothers me, or perhaps I don’t understand what exactly they might be selling of my info…
