No script is redundant with ublock origin on advanced mode.

Yes, because their ads are served on the same server (googlevideo.com iirc) as the actual videos. Blocking that domain would block the videos too.

https://esc.sh/projects/devops-from-scratch/ is a good resource. Most questions you have (that are more specific) are easily searchable on the internet.

ways to safely connect to home servers over the internet while away

A couple methods include :

• Installing Wireguard on the host machine
• Reverse-proxying with a VPS
• Cloudflare zero-trust tunnel

when it may be better to spin up services on a VPS instead

Most services you probably won’t need a VPS to do, but off the top of my head a couple services which would be better hosted (not saying self-hosting them on your own hardware is bad) would be services which proxy a service. Example SearxNG, Invidious, Proxitok, etc. This is so that traffic can be shared among multiple users, and not linked back to your home IP.

What’s channel 16? Haven’t used satellite in a good while.

A water kettle. Doesn’t have to be any fancy one, but it really fucking rocks for anything you might think of : want hot water for tea? No problem. Need hot water to steep something? No problem.

Most mid-range ones are insanely power efficient too, often being alot better than just boiling water on a stovetop, or using a microwave. And, depending on insulation, heat can be stored for over 6! hours.

“Brave releases its own privacy-preserving crypto-included image and video search” there, fixed it.

Unfortunately do not use proton, but general consensus about compatibility works just fine without proton. Subdomains, to me, seem like a super easy way to identify someone - I’m going to be the only person using “abc.simplelogin.com”, basically the same as if I was using my real email.

Currently, since no one is talking about Firefox Relay, I’m between either Anonaddy or Simplelogin. They seem pretty similar according to the couple comments here.

Thank you for the feedback!

Duckduckgo has started this too. Very annoying.

Edit: just realised this post was from 3 years ago… I don’t know why this popped up lol.

What meat did you use? All look mouthwatering and makes me want to go to the deli right now for some…
