Can you share some specifics on the setup? Trying to do something similar. Haven’t tried it yet, but MacOS can create encrypted “sparse images”, which can be mounted and contain files. I’d like find to a better way, especially something tha

Wow, never knew about Thunderbolt networking, thanks! NextCloud - been hearing a lot about this. What’s the setup/upkeep/maintenance like? Where are you hosting it? That VPN idea - would love to keep things accessible by IP whitel

Wikipedia Current Events portal is an alternative to scanning CNN, Fox, BBC, NPR etc. I like that you can tab open links to further research around a topic. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portal:Current_events

Hope its OK to share a quick tech rage rant? So, gotta jump in here and say - I'm going thru the "Let's figure out Emacs, Org-Mode, Org-Roam - get my todo, calendar, files, notes all in one... somewhat coherent system".

Agreed on the spirituality. I have felt similarly unhappy as the original poster & some others on the thread. Stuck in corporate unfulfilling tech job. 2 years ago, I was able to break free (happy to share if folks are curious to hear).
