I know absolutely nothing about cycles but I want to reduce my dependence on cars as much as possible especially for short trips. All of the terms around cycles confuse me, since I haven’t really dug deep into it. I don’t even want gears in my cycle: I want the absolute simplest thing possible.
Didn’t the FBI crack down on someone who was doing a lot of these transactions? I’m a bit afraid of being tracked this way, since that person had all of his contacts listed and the government likely has the names and addresses of everyone who sent him money
Hi, thanks for your comment. I would like to use localmonero, it’s just that I’m a bit scared of getting tracked since the government caught someone who used to engage in a lot of these trades, and now his entire customer list is with the government.

Hello! My name is Mike and I am an infosec engineer with 10+ years experience. I’ve worked in GRC, Vulnerability Management, PenTesting & AppSec. I have 17 SANS certs (I have a serious problem) and I’m also an infosec community enthusiast and creator/mod for /c/cybersecurity. AMA!
I am interested in roles that marry the Cloud, Networking and Cybersecurity together. What would such a role look like? Is there a demand for something like this? I’m not a programmer, and don’t think I’ll be a good fit for application/operating system security. But Networking security is easier for me to jump into, and I hear that roles in this industry are fairly well paid?
I’m looking to progress my career in a path related to the Cloud, and wanted to explore cybersecurity rather than just going for the Cloud architect role (or maybe they are somewhat connected the higher up you go? I’m so confused).
Thanks for your time. I’m very interested in some of the SANS courses you mentioned, I’ll take a look. Thanks!
I currently use an old (2013?) Intel NUC with a 12TB MyBook plugged in as a simple Plex server. I want to get a NAS. Right now at Amazon or B&H I can get a DS923+ w/ two 16TB HDDS for about $1000....
OP, I too have been looking for a form factor like the off-the-shelf NAS units but the ability to run my own OS.
Terramaster has heard our prayers. Their F223 and F423 have the TOS on an USB drive, which you can remove and install your own OS on either another USB drive or on an NVME drive (or both NVME drives).
I mean, exactly how invasive are default operating systems? (Like Windows, Mac, Chrome OS, Android, iOS) Do they log your keystrokes, log passwords, capture screen, upload your photos, videos, or audio? (Assuming you aren’t a target of government) Is it even possible for the average person who doesn’t feel comfortable...
I mentioned Intel because ME is cancer embedded in hardware. Even if someone was good enough to rewrite windows code to remove all telemetry (in theory), there is nothing one can do about hardware.
AMD’s OPENSIL might change that, but we’ll have to wait and see. The fact is that ME can hijack one’s system resources and push telemetry to Intel, including public IP. That’s the worst offender in my opinion
AMD does the same thing with their PSP. But AMD is supposed to release OpenSIL in 2027 which should theoretically give the community the keys to stop PSP from booting and work Coreboot/Libreboot for other motherboards
Consumer hardware solves both of these problems. Yes, we don’t have iLO, but if someone is really motivated, they can use PiKVM. I am yet to figure out if I can run PiKVM without the hats on a different SBC but I think it can be done.
For me personally, I’ll be using said board in a NAS. With this board, I would no longer need an LSI HBA hogging my x16 port, which means if I ever decide to train ML models, I can get a GPU for myself.
The Asrock Rack series is exciting, but from what I have seen, that line of motherboards are really expensive. I’ll keep a look out though, I find one of their motherboards under $150 which fits my needs, and it will become my number 1 choice.
I do not see why I absolutely need ECC memory for a NAS. I’m not going to store PBs of media/documents, it’ll likely be under 30TB (that’s a conservative estimate). I thought ECC memory is a nice-to-have (this is no enterprise workload).
Thank you for the tip. I will look into Xeon-D integrated motherboards. I will not be running very heavy loads (other than a Suricata instance for an IDS/traffic analyser - I would love suggestions which might be lighter on compute - which might be heavy). The idea for training ML models was just a remote possibility.
My apologies, I kept saying iLO/iDRAC when I meant IPMI.
Why do you suggest having separate devices for storage/compute?
My idea was to run FreeBSD on a ZFS mirror of NVME drives as the base, and run VMs/Jails on a pool of SATA SSDs. These would exist alongside HDDs but would otherwise not affect their functioning. In this scenario, how does having 2 machines make my infrastructure more reliable, other than FreeBSD not running as intended?
Have you had instances of memory corruption because you didn’t use ECC? I was under the impression from r/selfhosted that this problem was blown out of proportion.
The reason I mentioned the E-key slot is because that way, I don’t have to use a PCIe slot for the adapter, which I might use for something else. I have no need for 10Gbe.

Noob Question: If you aren't willing to deal with custom OSes like Linux (for computers) and Android Custom Roms (for phones), do you just not have any privacy at all?

I’m sorry to disappoint you, in that this is a consumer motherboard. So yes, AMD PSP exists, no iLO....
