Backups serve different purposes and if encryption by malware is a threat, you have to do backups differently, as opposed to, for example, hardware failure, where your NAS is a valid approach. To protect against encryption malware, you must make your backups inaccessible. One example are read-only backup media like DVD-ROMs. Another example is to make regular backups on tapes or HDDs and lock them up somewhere. You only take them out after you have wiped all computers that were affected by malware.

There was choice, but not enough volunteers: https://www.debian.org/ports/kfreebsd-gnu/

#Peertube got already mentioned, but just serving video files may already suffice. Modern webbrowsers are capable of playing videos. Some tweaking of parameters may be necessary when encoding them. Also, no frills such as dynamic adoption of bitrate/quality or high-level stuff like commenting, likes, or subtitles.

Most comments comments mention Brother, but for me, Oki is working like a charm. Using a B431dn (b/w, duplex) and a C531dn (color, duplex) with PPD files from OpenPrinting. Older models though, not sure if Oki dropped quality in favour of DRM since.

Rules of thumb:

  1. Laser instead of ink unless you specifically know that you need/want ink.
  2. Stay away from HP, Canon, and probably Epson. HP, like IBM, has long lost its aspiration for quality.
  3. Stay away from anything that is ‘smart’ or ‘cloud’.

Leider führen kleine Supermärkte oder Discounter wenige bis gar keine alkoholfreien Biere. Wenn man eines haben will, muss man immer zum Fachhändler (Getränkemarkt). Und trotz Biersteuer sind alkoholfreie Biere nicht mal merkbar billiger.

Ah, ein Störtebeker-Fan 😀

Persönlich ziehe ich Weizenbiere vor und kann das Bernstein-Weizen empfehlen.

For some reason, OpenNIC is missing in this comparison:
