HN flagging this says all that needs to be said about what side HN and YC has chosen.

I never thought Matt's unhinged behavior would make DHH look sane, and private equity look reasonable, but here we are.

Re:SSH has become our universal (Unix) external access protocol
on Thursday July 18, 2024 @10:54AM (#40996139)
You can do all sorts of things with SSH. My favorite is SSHFS, which is couplings for SFTP that treat it like a proper filesystem, and it works on everything that uses SSH. Quicker to setup than a VPN and SMB, and about as secure (you could also theoretically use PAM to authenticate with LDAP or newer MFA protocols)

Which is just rich, as Analogue takes advantage of preorders to limit hardware on a per-order basis, meaning they are always out of stock. Don't have this issue with the MiSTer.

A lawyer. I would try contacting a local startup incubator to see if they have any recommendations before you start googling or looking up Avvo.
I also found Termly helpful for a first Privacy Policy especially through their wizard, which clears up all your GDPR/CCPA matters, but you want a professional to look this over at some point.
