   It should be regulated to make devices repairable and upgradeable. End soldering of components to motherboard. Make service manuals publicly available. Components sold and available.

    And this gamble is paid for by American taxpayers, increased cost of utilities, and multibillion dollar corporations receiving tax breaks/subsidies from the cities/counties they build in. This country is so awful. Great if you are

    I have heard of hetzner terminating customer relationships if too many legal complaints are filed against your VPSes. But not because of being "not a profitable customer". Mind sharing some links here?

    headscale is an awesome project. And I love tailscale as a product. But this is where netbird beats tailscale: coordinator server open sourced out/self hosted out the gate. Headscale is currently maintained by a few tailscale employees

    I am not arguing for AWS. It _used_ to be great and free tier made it easy enough to migrate most personal use cases to their infrastructure. But they have enshittified the free tier to a point where it’s unusable without forking over obsce
