I manage storage systems as part of my day job. i think you would be happy with a simple direct attached storage device. You’d need a storage controller card and a storage controller. These are usually enterprise-grade items so they might be expensive. I suspect there are SATA options but SATA is pretty slow.

QNAP and Synology are decent for what they offer, if you like the idea if turning it on, setting up an account, and then having access to both native and an easy 3rd-party store with no fiddling needed then they are a good idea. You can also setup an iSCSI connection for direct-attached storage over the network.

It’s used for out of band management. With the correct hardware items (nic and gpu) it’s called vPro.

Small companies won’t be able to compete.

I’m all for this but we need to offset these immense productivity gains with economic safety nets. I don’t know how the next 100 year will look if we don’t adopt UBI, universal healthcare, and some amount of subsidized housing.

Does lemmy use google or Facebook as an idp yet? That makes things pretty easy on kbin.social.

MS is doing the same to Outlook users too at some point. Its a much better app. Windows mail/calendar were an oddity. Remember outlook express?

You want to use as little space as possible tonsave on cost.

A server with ipmi is ideal.

A hardware vpn firewall is a good idea.

Do you need to provide your own router or switch?

Courts can have closed source code audited. It’s literally done in a locked room on a device that doesn’t have the ability to export, and people that enter the room are monitored.

Because they don’t test with Chrome of Firefox. It also makes it easier to cross-sell o365.

Unreasonable request for most internet users.

Facebook doesn’t need you to have an account to track you.

Yes. It’s almost silly that they had to say it. I bet lawyers were involved.
