I think the author’s intended implication is absolutely that it’s a dollar because the USA invented the computer. The two problems I have is that:
It’s just a lazy bit of thinking in an otherwise excellent and internationally-minded article and so it stuck out to me too.
The stupid thing is, all the author had to do was write “kind of tells you who invented ASCII” and he’d have been 100% right in his logic and history.
It allows me to connect into the house via the VPS without opening ports or knowing my home address.
Nowadays there are various companies offering tunnelling services, but my setup has been working for a long time and I see no reason to change.
It’s the root OS; that Pi is a media centre in the living room (plus it’s taken on a few extra duties since it’s always online). It’s been going for a good few years now, 8+?
I’ve been running OSMC (Kodi on Debian) plus a few useful things like maintaining a reverse SSH connection to a VPS.
Yes, uBlock Origin works brilliantly on Firefox for Android (can’t comment on other mobile OSes).
I plan to switch over later when it makes sense to - the nice thing about Backblaze is that it scales with your storage, whereas with Hetzner you have to jump from 1 TB to 5 TB.
It’s for storing a few terabytes of fairly static media (for the most part, write-once). The codebases using it don’t natively support object storage (and will be in Docker containers).
It’s on a Hetzner server, and Backblaze (even after the price increase) will be a lot cheaper than normal drives, although their storage box option is probably better value over about two GB.
You mean community, btw (sh.itjust.works is the instance).
When I last used Debian, I found myself very annoyed with the lag in the package manager. This is a very long time ago (15 years?), so probably isn’t the case any longer. However, due to laziness (or proactively avoiding a bikeshed rabbit hole) I didn’t check and just chose Ubuntu over Debian the other day because of that.
FYI, the www-less version doesn’t work for me, try https://www.sci-hub.st/
(Somehow I ended up on an old version before reporting this here)

You may be right; it was about 20 years ago I watched it. Perhaps their conclusion was it happens just as much when the lid is down.
Yeah, the original thin clients were basically useless without the server they connected to, but nowadays even computers the size of a stick of gum are plenty powerful enough for consuming webpages and videos.
You still need peripherals like mouse, keyboard and screen but you might get them as part of the package (sounds like you already have them though).

That’s a great demonstration, and also makes me want to go clubbing.
Toothbrushes were mentioned, and I’d assume that the toothpaste does a good enough job at killing bacteria that it doesn’t make a difference, aside from that the bacterial load is probably low enough to be negligible.
But yeah, you don’t want to be thinking about putting a pooey stick in your mouth either.
It’s long running, so you want a database so you can store your state. If you’re storing state, locking it into a state machine makes sense.
I do agree with some of the commenters that making it closer to an event source design would make more sense still.
