  • Hard disagree, the difference between “Congress shall make no law… abridging the freedom of speech… or the right of the people peaceably to assemble…” and “well regulated militia” is night and day. If they wanted to regulate this conduct they have a lot of hurdles to go through. For example if they wanted to ban the display of flags, you would need to either show it doesn’t impact speech (it does) or get over the strict scrutiny standard which is famously difficult to overcome. Also it needs to be written by congress or a more local form of government, not at the wims of a president.












  • I’ll share my experience with my very unprofessional but working setup.

    I have two locations, both using retired PCs. I don’t need anything fancy, but some considerations could be GPU/encoding hardware if you wanted something like jellyfin/Plex. I use proxmox and proxmox backup server for managing everything and so far it’s been working well. Definitely not plug and play like an aio nas but that’s because a nas wasn’t my only goal as I needed cameras (frigate) and homeassistant.

    I would highly recommend headscale/tailscale (as others have suggested) as it “just works” when setup in my experience. This enables safe remote access without opening any ports on your families networks so you can troubleshoot if something did break.

    Regardless of which solution you decide to use, the most important part about having a backup is testing. If you can’t see when your backups fail or don’t know how to recover you may as well not have a backup.
