  • You said anything so I guess. VPN is like… $4 a month (that’s what the math works out to for my three year sub).

    Cloud service is like $10 a month

    Music: $15 a month

    Nebula: $5 a month

    Password Manager: $1.33 a month

    Internet: $90 a month

    Phone: $30

    Wikipedia: $5 a month

    Servo: $5 a month

    404 Media: $8.33 a month

    That’s all I can think of off the top of my head unless you want like rent and utilities and that.






  • The military. Being on a ship with no wifi for months on end sort of makes you invest in entertainment that can go off grid. It started with a 3TB hard drive and what amounts to a NAS for hooking up to a computer screen or TV. I then moved to using Plex for streaming and the interface. Eventually I moved to Jellyfin.

    At this point I just have a server in my living room with 10TB’s worth of drives and the ability to share just about anything locally or wirelessly when I’m outside my house.

    My job is technical but not… IT, cyber security, or development related. I’ve always been interested in computers though and have built several at this point.




  • Yeah. I wasn’t sure it would work for your use case necessarily, but I did remember seeing that a version of the Walmart onn box was available in Europe, so I didn’t want to discount it altogether.

    Either way I do hope you find what you’re looking for and if I come across suggestions that might work I’ll try to post them here.
