Thank you, that’s far more than I realized went into it but I’m very grateful you wrote it all up for me. I really just learned how to install Linux so maybe getting that pre-made device is my best bet, but I still need to learn more about Linux to begin with. Again, I really appreciate it!

How does one start implementing this kind of privacy and blocking? I have adblock, but that’s like the extent of my knowledge.

That is a great idea! I am a cosplayer and try to recycle stuff into props sometimes, but I don’t think I’ve completely turned something around into such a new thing. Usually it’s upcycling clothes or gluing things together lol.

That’s really cool! Do you do all your projects by recycling? I’m guessing if it was a spring then you melted it completely down before doing blacksmith-y things to it. It’d be really cool to see a timelapse or something!
