I would use NFS instead of SMB. you will have all sorts of problems when you use smb, primarily permissions.

Also I wouldn’t put all the data on the nas. What containers do you want to run? If you try to run something like nextcloud, you can just map your data directory to your nas. Databases, configfiles and so on aren’t that big usually and your application will be a lot faster when those are on your local storage instead of the nas. For actually mapping your containers data to your nas you can just use bind mounts.

For the startup, you can set restart:never in your compose file and start the container with a script after bootup where you out something like ‘sleep 120’ in the beginning.

Probably nothing bad happens with those faxes. A malicous actor would still need access to the physical analogue line or to the network to sniff the RTP packets (depending on how the fax is transmitted) on one of the two sides. In theory all providers involved could also sniff the traffic since calls/faxes are never end to end encrypted. But something could happen, and I dislike it very much that they demand their users to take this risk.

You can open a second or third instance of material files via the three dots menu. You then have the app multiple times open and can copy/cut and paste between them.

Its not quite two panes but maybe better on a small screen. Its also a feature that’s easy to miss.

I like firewalld. Its also used on many enterprise distros (RHEL, SLES).

But if you just have to open one port for something, just use what’s installed on your distro.

Do they want you to fax them your Id?

Whatever this company is doing, stay away from it. This is ridiculous. Fax isn’t encrypted at all. Anyone asking you to do this has no idea about security and shouldn’t handle your data.

Also please don’t use some random fax app from the play store. They all seem sketchy as hell.

You always need to recreate the container when you change something in the compose file. Did you double all $ signs in the hashed string?

You can setup a freshrss server and connect readyou to it

Disable the “use system language” setting and choose your native language. You can then add English to your native languages layout as a secondary language.

Are you sure this is a DNS issue? If google.com can’t be resolved it shouldn’t run into a timeout. It should display an error message that google.com can’t be resolved pretty much instantly.

Paseo uses the health features of the phone which works fine. Unfortunately it doesn’t support watches. But the accuracy is still pretty good in my experience

Never had this problem. I’m using Firefox on Windows and Android with another search engine for years now.

Notepad++ is one of the best applications ever made

I prefer signal, but if I had to use WhatsApp or telegram, I would go with Whatsapp. Facebook having all your metadata sucks, but at least your messages aren’t stored on their servers for ever and it uses the signal protocol.

Mist small search engines use bing result which are a hit or miss compared to Google.

Startpage is the only privacy focused one I found that uses Google search results. The UI is fine for the most part, except the image search maybe.
