   This happened to me starting yesterday. Customer support was no help. Making me seriously consider exploring alternatives to Amazon. This is both on the app and using the website on my computer.

   I would eat the food at the store and then throw the trash away in the store's trash cans. For things I didn't eat at the store I carried a small plastic bag to store my trash and when I got to my lodging I would throw it away. Al

   I think they are saying if you use VyOs on Proxmox it gives you something equivalent to JunOs. I have no idea if that is true or not though.

   Personally I would get a used Dell Optiplex / Lenovo ThinkCentre / HP EliteDesk. Either the "mini" / "micro" if you really want small. I am a fan of the SFF (Small Form Factor) size and the Dell Optiplex m

    So? I don't see any issue. I always use FQDNs for everything.

    I do the same thing. I'm not worried about them seeing my FQDNs. I use the form of hostname.int.example.com for everything inside my home network. None of which is accessible to the outside world. I use LetsEncrypt with DNS validation

    I've been using it for over 2 years now. I'm quite happy with it. I like that I don't see adds and my searches aren't being used to target ads against me.

    Thanks. When I tried to use the https://www.githubstatus.com/ link it wouldn't let me submit. Now I will remember to use the incident link in the future. I hadn't noticed that before.

    The binary blob issue has been brought up since back in 2020. And since then very little real progress has happened from what I can tell. I am not willing to use the software due to that issue. It just seems suspicious.

    I'll believe it when it happens. The maintainer hasn't done much regarding this for over 5 years. There are issues raised about this back in 2020 and not much has changed. It just seems suspicious to me. But I might be paranoid.

    I use VMs myself. I use Proxmox and have it setup so that I can spin up a fresh VM in around 10-20 seconds when needed. I also like that I can take snapshots. I really want to limit the amount of software I am installing on my main system d
