If you don’t want to open any ports, then you will need to setup a VPN service. Tailscale is one of the easiest to use VPNs out there.

I’m sure it varies from country to country, but here in Canada, at least Ontario, which is the only province that I am familiar with when it comes to teaching requirements, you would definitely need to attend teacher’s college, which is a two year program.
Realistically, you should always try to keep a decent food storage in your home.
Not only does proper food storage mean you are prepared in the event of some disaster or item scarcity, such as toilet paper during covid, but it also keeps grocery costs down, as you can buy discounted items in bulk and work through them until you find them at a good price to stock up again.
I realize that storage space can be limited in a home, but even when I lived in a tiny apartment I did my best to dedicate enough space for a month or two of extra food supplies.
Are there comparable alternatives? I never found another launcher that I like as much.
I’m in a similar boat. While my current setup is getting by, I’m in the market for something better.
I’m hoping that the shield will soon get a refresh when Nintendo releases their next console. If so, I’ll be picking up a shield for sure.
$1k in maintenance is rather a lot.
There’s no enshitification happening if the product hasn’t gotten any worse. It’s just a pricing change. In fact, if the pricing change does in fact lead to a better product then this is the complete opposite of enshitification.
While I was initially skeptical about the pricing changes, the more I learned about it the more I was okay with it. I think part of the initial problem was the talk of annual subscriptions, when in fact it’s much closer to paying for version upgrades. Their new standard licenses have come down in cost from the old perpetual licensing and the price of a version upgrade is only $36.
Your direct play and Picture in Picture issues might be resolved if you enable “Use Native Video Player” in playback settings. That being said, Picture in Picture doesn’t always work properly for me.
Definitely agree they should be split up if possible. Octoprint and Home Assistant are both rather demanding on a Pi, particularly the Pi 3B.
I would however opt to run Pi-Hole on the Home Assistant device as there is a plugin built in for it, and Home Assistant is the kind of thing you would be more likely to leave on at all times.
They sure do!
I find their pricing to be rather reasonable. They even have a lifetime plan.
