Expanding the seats of supreme justices, executive orders to undo Trumps, replace every person Trump assigned, then instructing congress to put some laws down to fix all the holes the GOP used and abused.

Put the DOJ onto prosecuting a number of people that were performing illegal activities.

He can also instruct DHS to rake the forest instead of doing much anything else.

Servers are just expensive hardware. You can accomplish 95% with a consumer grade desktop without all the extra power/heat/noise and dependencies on specific hardware.

Harbor freight sells battery powered hammer drills and masonry bits that are cheap and powerful enough to drill a few inches into concrete in under a minute.

They also had saws and saw blades used for cutting up masonry.

You should buy both. Don’t mess around with VIP UAT.

Reolink might be another to consider.

https://orb.net/ monitors your internet performance.

https://tailscale.com/ access your home internet or devices when you’re away from home. Usually only helpful if you have a NAS, but I’ve used it to stream tv shows without having to get bothered or blocked because the service can only be used in the US. I watched some NFL over youtubetv while in Germany for example.

OpenVAS is a vulnerability scanner that appears to be open source.

Metasploit is another that I think is free and might be open source.

Mine runs Orb and Tailscale as an exit node.

True but it’s designed to be on networks that don’t have internet.

Tplink Omada doesn’t need a cloud connection. There’s plenty of other reasons to not like Omada but it’s something to consider. It’s also dirt cheap.

If any service has only username and password instead of mfa or password less then it’s not safe.

You also didn’t mention if you have automated patching or immutable backups enabled.

Even large streaming services drop their servers close to the users to make the experience good. They just do better at scaling.

You could federated authentication so only one ldap service is maintained. You could also sync media from one device to the other so you don’t need to manually update both.

When a post to a website gets popular but the website doesn’t have enough resources to handle the number of people visiting it.

DDOS is a symptom. A DDOS can cause different failure scenarios at different points.

Maybe the attack is causing the service to access a backend database that isn’t equipped to handle the traffic. The web server queues requests but they can’t be handled in a timely manner.

Maybe the attack causes a firewall to spend too much time inspecting the traffic by sending a malformed packet.

Maybe the attack simply overwhelms the bandwidth of the firewall or router. The Reddit “hug of death” is a common example.

In short, lots of things can lead to a service interruption. A DDOS is just a description of a way to cause that interruption by using distributed source hosts.

App devs control this.

This is how we end up with Sharknado.

Desktop streaming isn’t the same as web apps.

Modern desktop streaming is quite impressive. 100ms, 5% loss is no problem for most tasks. You don’t even notice it, and as a result your experience can sometimes be better.

Additionally you can offload some tasks to the local machine where appropriate.

You dont need to fit every users needs into a thin client setup, but you could fit probably 50% of all users onto one and they wouldn’t know any different. Think of the energy savings. Think of all that plastic that goes into a desktop or laptop that isn’t needed in a virtualized blade chassis. Think of the rolling performance upgrades. Think of never having your hardware go End of Support. Think of the old equipment that ends up properly e-wasted instead of shoved into a dump. Think of the batteries that no longer need to get produced.

I might play around with this idea and host my own non-profit Desktop as a Service.
