IKEA window sensors are pretty cheap, and that’s what I’ve used. You’d need to have a lot of sensors or a lot of faith in the rapidity of air movement to avoid window sensors.

I still haven’t figured out how to make a firewall rule with slaac on pfsense, with an ISP that hands out addresses at random. It’s my understanding’s slaac is the “right” way to do things, not dhcp and reservations.
Granted, it’s been a minute since I tried so I don’t remember the issues, but as I recall, when ipv6 prefix changes, device gets new IP (and it seems not just the prefix part. I can get the firewall to register IPs into DNS and use a dns based firewall rule, but unbound restarts and blows out its cache when a device joins the network. And there another part to it but it’s all gone fuzzy.
This is something I’ve looked into in the past as well and with about 35 circuits to monitor, the Vue seems like a good one and done solution except it’s way too small, AND there’s mucking about with firmware which I’m none too excited about. I’m waiting for something better.
This depends entirely on what you want to run. A pihole needs vastly different resources than for example offering jellyfin to 20 simultaneous users. Both can be hosted at home.
Jellyfin has a pile of security issues regarding unauthenticated enumeration of the media that’s shared. That’s probably not awesome on the public internet. 
I’d suggest setting up Tailscale. https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin/issues/5415
Thanks for sharing; I was unaware. Just closed off that network hole.
This was written by AI, badly.
To be pedantic, there is no 6e. Just 6A. I am looking at a spool labelled 6e as I type this, but that’s just a manufacturer thing, not an actual spec.
It’s pretty good to work with, and it’s got pretty mainstream support because the OS isn’t FreeBSD anymore, and it supports docker. As far as setting up the array you plug in the disks and tell it to make a pool. Pretty easy. Then you can subdivide as needed.
TrueNAS has some built in support for backing up to various clouds via rsync, or you can sync at the pool level to a remote server.
TrueNAS Scale is a good option. ZFS is a very resilient filesystem. I lost a lot of data to a software raid in the past that didn’t checksum the data and now I have an affinity for zfs. I believe they have added the ability to grow with larger drives as well - just disconnect drive an and insert new larger drive b, let it resilver, and once you’ve got them all replaced it grows the volume. Set it up, see how you like it, and move your data over if you do.
You may be different, but given that your current situation is a couple drives sitting on a desk for 4+ years, I wouldn’t worry about expansion so much. I built a nas a while ago and figured I’d upgrade it, and I haven’t. Until it’s full, it’ll keep going.
Also check price/gb before settling on 6TB. That’s small.
Sure, let’s just gloss over the cost of heating - which relies heavily on fossil fuels or smog-producing fuels, or both.
Datacentre thermal management (especially for AI)isn’t even in the same ballpark as cooling for homes. One produces pretty charts for management, the other keeps people alive.
I clicked the button to make a link but it didn’t work. :)
I just looked back and my first vault item dates back to 2010. Time flies.
I think enshittification is slightly an overstatement. They’re under VC pressure now and moving aggressively towards a subscription model with capabilities increasingly behind the subscription. I bought a few licenses for Mac and PC a while ago; the software still works but no browser extensions - need a subscription for that. Also, take a look at their job postings. Same job pays double in USA vs Canada. Funny way to do things if they’re Canadian.
It was a password safe before password safes were cool. https://www.pwsafe.org/2002.shtml
Personally, 1Password, but their enshittifaction is serious.
Work, Password Safe. But we’re moving to CyberArk.
Doug has forgotten.
Danielle is on board with it all.

What sort of isp supplied residential equipment doesn’t block inbound connections? Pedantically, you’re correct.
You have a firewall. It’s in your router, and it is what makes it so that you have to VPN into the server. Otherwise the server would be accessible. NAT is, effectively, a firewall.
Should you add another layer, perhaps an IPS or deny-listing? Maybe it’s a good idea.

Federal law allows certain federal agents to conduct search and seizures within 100 miles (160 km) of the border into the interior of the United States.[5] The Supreme Court has clearly and repeatedly confirmed that the border search exception applies within 100 miles (160 km) of the border of the United States
I used my work address. My work is small enough that it’ll filter to me eventually if they snail mail me.
