Also apparently cron works in termux, so it could all probably be scripted there.

I think you could get something working using termux to install and run ffmpeg on your phone. Then using an automation app, e.g. if this then that, you could run a script in termux to re-encode the files. And automate it at night while charging.

Using the dictionary definition of a term like sanitary when applying it to an industry with its own specific definition, food prep, makes your argument seem like it is a bad faith argument. I don't think that is your intent here, I just want to bring to your attention that your point will be missed if you use a term with multiple contextual meanings in & out of industry since it makes the argument linguistic rather than point by point.

People like to think that because they own a gun, if they ever got to use it they would be John Wick.

Way too true, I know too many people who are genuinely like this my brother included. If people have this kind of mindset they shouldn't be allowed to own guns, it is a tragedy waiting to happen.

Not gonna lie that is kinda my hobby. Pick up other hobbies, learn a bunch get okay but not too much time sunk in, time for a new hobby.

Glofiber is great! I've used them for a few years now and they have been really reliable & easy to work with. If you do any self-hosting they do have double NAT but after a quick call to support I was able to get a public ip without any cost.

It's a special edition so probably just scalpers

Holy cow, didn't realize just how bad Microsoft is getting. That behavior is unjustifiable especially considering this is just for wallpapers.

I'm on the bandwagon of not hosting it myself. It really breaks down to a level of commitment & surface area issue for me.

Commitment: I know my server OS isn't setup as well as it could be for mission critical software/uptime. I'm a hobbiest with limited time to spend on this hobby and I can't spend 100hrs getting it all right.

Surface Area: I host a bunch of non mission critical services on one server and if I was hosting a password manager it would also be on that server. So I have a very large attack surface area and a weakness in one of those could result in all my passwords & more stored in the manager being exposed.

So I don't trust my own OS to be fully secure and I don't trust the other services and my configurations of them to be secure either. Given that any compromise of my password manager would be devastating. I let someone else host it.

I've seen that in the occassional cases when password managers have been compromised, the attacker only ends up with non encrypted user data & encrypted passwords. The encrypted passwords are practically unbreakable. The services also hire professionals who host and work in hosting for a living. And usually have better data siloing than I can afford.

All that to say I use bitwarden. It is an open source system which has plenty of security built into the model so even if compromised I don't think my passwords are at risk. And I believe they are more well equipped to ensure that data is being managed well.

OpenSUSE tumbleweed is a good compromise IMO. it is also a rolling release distro with built in snapshotting. So if anything does go wrong it takes ~5 mins to roll back to the last good snapshot. You can set the same thing up on arch but it isn't ootb and YAST is a great management tool as well.
