    I think in future devices are supposed to support as many popular functions as possible. Due to trend of thin devices we need smaller ports and fewer of them. Multiple possible use…

    Backup is much more important than RAID in most situations. RAID doesn't protect from user error, virus, fire, etc. I think Windows does remind to create backup (but not very loudl…

    I'm sorry, was my message unclear? There were no assumptions. I'm speaking from experience that when I was using Debian testing I would usually receive security updates days after …

    Yes, there are downsides to federation, but I would argue spam is not inherent to federated communication. There are many ideas to stop spam like proof of work. Main reason for spa…

    Let's give Facebook full control over worlds communication? And allow them to cut people off from communicating with anyone? I don't think it's great idea. We really need federated…

    I simplified a bit. Yes, Debian testing gets new updates, which means it gets security updates. Eventually. It can (and does) take days for critical security updates to migrate fro…

    User should not use IP addresses. This is what we have DNS and mDNS for. In special cases, like local router if mDNS is unavailable, IPv6 address is even easier than IPv4 (compare …

    Really? I used bvyhe on FreeNAS and it was awful comparing to KVM or ESXi.

    Professional might be different. I can personally confirm this issue on Home, version 1903-v2.

    I know, but these flags have to be set by provider of container, not user (provider of VPN). And they might require changes in kernel.
