Lol, ok. I still won’t buy it. I wouldn’t even buy it at 100x the price.

Ok, fair enough. I don’t think that’s likely though.

Your information is outdated.

I don’t know why you have trouble with this. Everything runs through the same SSL protected connection. Router -> Nginx Proxy Manager w/ TLS -> Jellyfin.

I mean, the worst that could happen is they delete everything on the server and I have to spend time restoring from a backup. Not exactly the riskiest thing to do.

I’ve had my instance open to the internet for about two years with no issues.

Wait. Jellyfin’s client isn’t any harder to set up than Plex…

The reason Jellyfin is harder to set up is because they don’t run TURN servers. Those cost a lot of money, hence why Plex keeps raising their prices. I wouldn’t be surprised if Plex’ “lifetime” subscriptions didn’t last for much longer.

That being said, Jellyfin is fairly easy to set up. You just have to watch some tutorials.

750TB!!!??? Good lord, how much did your RAID array(s) cost?

You’re missing getting to pay for it. Imagine how good it would feel to see $750 less in your bank account.

Framework used cheap batteries that died after two years. I got one. It died after two years. They refused to help. Therefore, I wouldn’t trust Framework to actually stand behind their products, and I wouldn’t trust them to use good quality parts.

It sucks because the thought that I could upgrade in the future is the only reason I paid the astronomical price for this thing, and now there’s no way I’m going to buy anything else from them.

They also support DHH, who is a white supremacist.

I don’t mean I wrote the cryptography implementation, I mean I wrote the code that uses it to encrypt my files. Yeah, I don’t trust myself to implement AES, but I also don’t trust others to use it correctly.

My guess is that the key to decrypt the disk is stored on the disk, encrypted by a Microsoft-known key. This seems to unlock that copy of the key rather than the copy encrypted by your own key.

Though he did say to put the disk back in the original system in part of the instructions, so it might be TPM based. The way to check would be to try this on a system with a disk from another system, or with a wiped TPM.

TPM is not security, it’s security theatre. If you don’t need to type a password in or insert a device with a key on it during boot, then it’s not secure, period.

Don’t buy a Framework.

I had prolate spheroids once. I spent two weeks in the hospital.

That’s fine. The more the merrier.

Have you heard of RustScript?

For anything I want to actually keep private, I only trust the software that I wrote. But LUKS is good enough for most stuff.

Of course they did. They have no interest in protecting your privacy and every interest in making you think they do. I would’ve been way more surprised to learn there wasn’t a backdoor.

Only took them 5 years.
