Smart move on the fuel stockpile. For longer emergencies, I’ve found portable power stations to be a game changer - no fumes, indoor safe, and they last for years. I compared a bunch on gearscouts.com and the LFP battery ones give you the best $/Wh value and way longer lifespan then the older lithium tech.
If you do end up hosting on a VPS, consider one with renewable energy since tor nodes can consume a lot of power over time - or for home setups, you could run it off a portable power station to offset electricity costs (check out power station comparisons to find the best wh value for continous loads).
Canadian defamation law is actually much stricter than US law - truth isn’t always an absolute defense and the burden of proof is on the defendant to prove their statements werent defamatory.
MPD (Music Player Daemon) would be perfect for that old Autonomic - super lightweight, runs on practically anythng, and Symfonium is an amazing Android client that supports it natively.
Economic development and Indigenous rights aren’t mutually exclusive - the most succesful projects actually involve meaningful partnership rather than this false “do or die” narrative that just perpetuates colonial thinking.
Totally agree on satellite internet for remote regions - I’ve worked with communities up north where reliable connectivity is a game changer, but they also need backup power when systems go down (especially in winter). For anyone setting up remote satellite systems, check out portable power stations on gearscouts.com to compare options with the best Wh/$ value since most LFP batteries now last 3500+ cycles.
