The powerful ones are called epyc.

latest amd ryzen chip and with 4tb of ssd and 16gb of ram

Why would you call that “powerful”?

connect them all to one display

The X Window System was invented originally with this idea. It can even connect multiple machines to multiple displays seamlessly.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/X_Window_System

It still works fine, but after most people have been using it only on 1 PC and screen, they abandoned it in favor of Wayland.

Nowadays even self hosters, the cream of the crop of all nerds ;-) usually prefer headless servers and only 1 PC with many screens connected to it.

Not in these next 4 years.

Afterwards, if judges still exist, you can try to force Tesla (with the help of judges) to allow your right to repair.

should I do

Read. For example the tutorials in the openwrt wiki. I found them quite helpful.

before flashing Openwrt

Nothing… except the exact prerequisites for the flashing itself.

Your network config comes afterwards.

…which is derived from SGML.

Yes, you can easily do it.

You want to look at 2 things: 1. Noise 2. Ratio of performance / power usage.

1. Noise

When your PC runs 24/7 then it might be annoying to hear it’s noise sometimes. Real server cases are usually even much louder than former PC’s because they are built for super strong air flow inside.

Think carefully what you need. In my situation it is just one light wooden door away from my bed, so I wanted it impossible to hear. I optimized it so, and it ended up being so quiet that I cannot hear any fans, but I hear the clicking of the harddisks all the time. Well, I got used to that, mostly. For my next home server I want to build my own case that absolutely blocks this noise.

2. Ratio of performance / power usage

People are frequently asking what if I turn this old Pentium etc. into a server?

Well, these old CPU’s have very low performance compared to new ones, but it might just be sufficient. But then you recognize that the old veterans burn 100 Watts for the same performance where a modern (low performance) CPU burns only 5 Watts, and now it will do that 24/7. Think about your yearly costs. Many times it turns out that buying a new one saves your money very easily.

Thinking the same here.

“Android 15” but this was QPR2 specifically

How can we bring that to a real world (read: cheap Chinese) phone?

statutes that protect […] people trying to cooperate with law enforcement,

I don’t know exactly about France, but such a concept is rare in Europe in general (except England), and even more so when it comes to possession of such materials.

In Germany, I know the tolerance is absolutely ZERO, and the excuses too. You can carry the material to the police to deliver it, and with that you have proven that you were in possession one second before (it is very different with illegal weapons btw.). Private investigators or journalists have tried to do reports about the topic, seriously and neutrally without any doubt, but got punished for possession then.

That doesn’t count for this kind of crime.

It’s not even certain whether or not it applies at all for fediverse systems.

Better delete it in the same minute when you found it.

Probably should have given all of the evidence to the police instead of deleting some of it.

Or maybe not. …

In most western jurisdictions platform operators are not liable for user content

Around here, OP would then automatically be a suspect for possession of the material. Possession is a crime. And that is far from funny. Better have a very good lawyer from minute 1.

Is this different than pihole?

The standard (automated) attacker manipulates the ‘inside’ device first (for example, it executes a JavaScript) and makes it perform an attack on the WiFi router, to which the device is connected.

If the inside device is a windows pc and the WiFi router has it’s inside port open for administrative actions, this is an easy game. Millions of WiFi routers have been turned into bots this way.

In your case the WiFi router is windows. This is different from the usual plastic router, but still not really a safe situation.

The attacking bots will surely be liking all your ‘buts’ ;-)

Window only faces internally so I’m okay w it not getting support

There is room some future proofing.

All your mobile devices connect directly to that Windows. Consider them ‘unsafe’. Consider Windows ‘unsafe’ as well.

‘unsafe’ + ‘unsafe’ = incubator for all kinds of trouble IMHO.

sour apple spray

Doesn’t it attract ants etc?

Don’t they use linux for their own servers LOL?

MNByChoice is right.

Read the server’s logfile for better info.
