Yeah, I was part of the Z-410/ZEVO beta. It was exciting at the time, quite responsive to our concerns, solid progress. But things fell through with funding or something went wrong in the company I guess. I'll always kind of wonde

After dabbling with early stuff from the sadly scrapped Apple effort, I started my full time Mac ZFS journey in 2011 with the then Z-410, which then became ZEVO which was 10.8 only, and then staying on that (and in turn 10.8 doho) on a Mac

Thanks for writing this all up! FWIW, I have gone that NAS route in general though with TrueNAS (formerly FreeNAS), I didn't like Synology myself after trying it. I think remote access works better if you just do it via modern VPN. Wir

Lighting was the first and still most meaningful smarthome thing I've done, though I did it much more manually. Hue bulbs don't require any sort of WAN link, the hub(s) will work fine purely via LAN (though without firmware update

Yeah 2005 for FDE would be pretty early adopter territory. On the Mac side Apple launched FileVault version 1 with 10.3 in 2003, but that only encrypted user home directories (IIRC it effectively was an attempt at transparently running a ho

There is a split here between law and practicality for many people I guess. As a matter of law for US Citizens it doesn't matter whether there is an "exemption" or not: a US Citizen may not be denied entry at a land port of e
