Assuming the NAS can do the same networking over USB4 that the author used it could work.

server-grade 2x SFP+ 10G NIC pulls are pretty easy to pick up from eBay for about $20 each

With a multigig capable SFP+ module it can handle 2.5G/5G copper as well.

You can still use it! I keep an old ThinkPad X61 & T400 around with mini-Firewire ports on my MOTU 828 mkII interface. It is also a DAC over SPDIF for my much newer Ryzen desktop. I would like to try Thunderbolt to FW800 to FW400 adapters to see if I can get it working on something more modern, as I learned it has mainline Linux kernel support.

Not just phones, I recently set up waydroid on an old netbook so my son could play the Khan Academy Kids app. Since the Android container is x86-64 and KAK is ARM-only the libhoudini translation layer was required and worked perfectly.

That has caused a very competitive job market, their HR doesn't even give the courtesy of a canned denial e-mail after applying for jobs.

Knowing this was possible along with the privacy concerns is the main reason I told friends and family not to buy a baby monitor for us. Instead I used Polycom VOIP phones and Asterisk PBX install to act like intercoms throughout the house using the DIDs 10, 20, 30, etc. Then I made extensions 11, 22, 33, etc to add a SIP-header to the call so that the receiving handset auto answers. Works really well, my wife and I use it every day, and our now 6 year old has started to too.

Ran Asterisk at work so it made sense to put it to use at home, albeit without any external connectivity.
