Sorry, you could be more specific with your title. Was this the one from yesterday? Or the day before that? Or the dozens from last week? Or the dozens from the week before that?

Buy the 5yr warranty extension. Yes you can delay updates/make them manual. If I were you and weren't ready to give up the fortinet I'd double NAT it for a while, I think you'll find the benefit of using the complete ecosystem will convince you to give up the fortinet even if there are a few features that fortinet do better.

You can buy a firewall model that has the required controller built in requiring cloud connection or 2nd to that I'd setup a VM using the http://glennr.nl/ scripts as the controller. The scripts are reliable and capable.

I used to run 3rd party, like Sonicwall, firewalls with Unifi wifi for a few years but recent improvements to their approach has made me switch to the whole eco system now and I prefer it.

Yes the important server computer is Linux, and the others are something else.

As soon as they breathe and give up on /r/NSFW they will slowly show up on the porch.

No he outsources the nonce protection to other nonces. It's called Outnoncing.

Y'know the setting in the bios where you can choose boot on power restore, stay off or last state? This relies on a capacitor on the motherboard near the bios battery to store the last state. This 5 cent capacitor can die and sometimes behave like you are saying. I had a repair guy fix it cheap and that server worked normally after that.

I learned one morning that a cmos battery could become a resistor. It can fail in a way that it's not working nor completely dead but passes just enough current to make a server motherboard that otherwise might A: Work, B: detect it's dead/missing and boot anyway with defaults to instead C: just freeze and not do anything. That was a fun full day of time wasted.

You can connect a headscale derp server to a tailscale environment.

Funny. It had me up until paragraph 5 negated paragraph 3. When you can netinst Debian and do all the things in para 5 with iceweasel without doing a single compile or chore from para 3 it's a good reminder how far Linux has come in my lifetime. :)

 

Our modesty seems to have taken away our best self. We should all be naked and chewing on a toothbrush when we are to be at our most inspirational.
