Follow the videos, the original developer shows what it can do, but it's basically running keylogger software.

This is the way.

There's nothing worse than finding your DNS/DHCP has gone down and it's a VM / container running inside a server that can't start because it doesn't have an IP address and you can't resolve names to get the thing started.

Break things down into chunks that make sense - to you.

I have dedicated (low power) hardware for the interweb firewall / DHCP / core network stuff.

I have a NAS for storage with all the backups / reinstall images on (so I can rebuild the firewall if there's no internet, for example)

Then I have everything else in a single server.

Sources: a house fire, water leak & many hardware failures & borked upgrades over many decades.

It's come quite a way... O.MG Cable

Just a cable... complete with wifi man-in-the-middle abilities

I mean, from an engineering point of view, hats off to the guy... I know how much effort would've gone into that...

But like one of the YT comments implied; if I tried that in my home, I'd be living in my shed.

I agree with this point: age isn't the measure of usefulness, popularity is

Something might be 10yrs old and uaed by many people... and also something 10 months old is no longer used.

Also, just a thought, if it's "old" it's probably a standard too, so probably doesn't actually need much (relative term) effort to maintain...

I didn't know this was a thing

Got to admit it's quite close to the start date / time to be deciding on a design now - unless I've misunderstood?

Yes, because the CLI command is poweroff, so I do agree with you 🙂

(Please Wait... comments about alternative CLI commands will arrive soon...)

Checkout big-launcher:

big-launcher is a work-in-progress HTPC application launcher. The design is loosely based on the Roku UI, consisting of a sidebar menu on the left, and selectable apps on the right. This project is intended to be the successor to my other HTPC project, Flex Launcher. Compared to Flex Launcher, big-launcher will be more graphically advanced, but less customizable. The program will be written in C++ and utilize SDL for graphics.

I just read about it from the Flex Launcher page, so no idea what it's like, just passing it on...

Yeah, that was me a couple years ago... I'd read some blogs, watched some yoochoobz and had data going from my NAS to Backblaze... encrypted...so... ok... is it restorable? No idea.

the recent influx of so-called 'immutable' distros springing up like mushrooms is undeniably linked to and inspired by NixOS.

This is the usual (only?) solution - the idea forks or inspires a different community to take it further.

There's usually no fixing a toxic person / community in either real life or online.

If you like music have a look at

No, you can jusy restore to a second location...it depends on whether everything was backed up, or just a few test files.

I prefer backing up specific folders rather than "everything", so it's easier to test. (I'd just reinstall the OS if that was nuked)

Let's say I want to do a test restore of all my photos. I just rename that folder to simulate that it's been accidentally deleted... then I just do a normal restore - and do a bit-by-bit comparison of the two folders and check it all went well.
