I use cloudflare mostly because I buy my domains through them as they offer at cost domain names for many TLDs. Internally I use PiHole and then just point what I need externally to cloudflare trough a reverse proxy and a DMZ box.

It’s for a dog, that likely puts far worse than a couple of black hairs in its mouth, I wouldn’t bother honestly.

Thanks!

Any chance you have the documentation for this somewhere I don’t need to setup an account to access (like GitHub perhaps)? I can figure out a print if needed (though somewhere like printables allows you to monetize your print files if you want but is still more accessible/open than Bambus walled garden).

Even if they were, this isn’t what any of these people are trained for. Federal agents are not local police. They don’t go out on patrol or randomly deal with stressful situations. TV makes it seem like federal agents are out chasing bad guys every day but they spend a huge amount of time following leads, interviewing people, and digging up information from various sources (of which i make no comments on the legality of). None of these people are trained to be beat cops on the front lines every day this way.

The technical term used in industry is confabulation. I really think if we used that instead of anthropomorphic words like hallucination it would make it easier to have real conversations about the limits of LLMs today. But then OpenAI couldn’t have infinite valuation so instead we hand wave it away with inaccurate language.

It wasn’t standard previously, and if you have TV service I think it’s still inconsistent but the past ~5 years it seems to be more common that they are setup that way from the start. If you have internet only service, and a newer ONT (like less than 10 years old) it is the standard configuration and is how the self install guide tell you to hook up the “quantum gateway” router from Verizon.

You can always call and ask to have your ONT converted to Ethernet output if it isn’t already and as long as it supports it I haven’t heard reports of much trouble there. The very early ONTs though don’t support it though IIRC but those should be being replaced at this point anyways.

I mean you can, an ONT is not a router, it’s essentially a media converter. I use my own router (and have for many years) and had no issues. The FiOS tech even ran a long Ethernet run in my basement to connect the ONT and my router in my rack when they installed service.

It depends, and without knowing your ISP I’m not sure there is a way to tell you for sure. I know for example Comcast gigabit Pro has been known to directly connect to an ISP SPF module in your firewall/router, but Verizon FiOS (and most FTTP that I know of) provide an ONT that converts the fiber to Ethernet which you would then connect directly to your hardware.

I would verify if the ISP router you refer to is not really an ONT in which case you are directly connected to the ISP functionally and there isn’t really an advantage to getting an SPF and getting the fiber directly connected if you even can.

I would recommend prowlarr instead of jackett for indexer management, and pihole as at least an additional blocking service but in reality it’s really all you need for use at home. I’d also strongly encourage use of a VPN on your *arr download services. I use a separate box to run Plex and then have my *arrs all running on their own VM inside if it to provide separation and allow be to more easily segregate the network traffic (as someone that doesn’t really know docker that well it “just works” for me. Also probably worth looking at how to store your media on an external target, it’s easy to quickly accumulate 10s of TBs of media and trying to store that all on the server locally is asking for trouble. Better to set everything up on a NAS to start.
