No denying in that.
Agreed, although it differs vastly between models, I'd say it's rather the opposite if you opt for passive 3d party heatsinks(chassis) which are plenty for Intel's NUC, even 80W TDP models (Iris Pro). Passive cooling for desktops is way more complicated. I've been using Akasa for my Skull canyon for years for my dead silent setup.

"Off-Topic: Most stories about politics, or crime, or sports, unless they're evidence of some interesting new phenomenon. Videos of pratfalls or disasters, or cute animal pictures. If they'd cover it on TV news, it's probably off-topic."
Almost the entire comments mix "crypto" with Bitcoin or "all cryptos are the same" which is factually false. Please explain how different it is in comparison, the thread is flooded with baseless claims. This is analogous to placing your money under the bed vs. in a bank vault, they're both unsafe technically, but the difference is vast.
Approach and hypocrisy matters. Apple did boast about privacy and security many times before...

Have you tried the multi tcp feature? It should solve the bandwidth issue with Amsterdam servers (torrenting allowed). Yes from ntop regarding nDPI.

Good suggestions but these do not offer redundancy/seamless-failover nor load balancing in case one of the links is poor (only failover), needs excellent and fast connections (the entire thing crumbles, BLEST barely helps), at this point a load balancer with sticky session is better. Very little packetloss with OMR is unusable, and MLVPN needs equal homogeneous uplinks (at least in latency), ubond fork needs manual tuning. Overthebox = OMR, infact OMR is a fork. MPTCP requires excellent connections, unless redundant mode is enabled, no aggregation. Overthebox also switched to Glorytun UDP due to the failover issues, but the performance is poor, and upload is not aggregated.

Speedify/Riverbed($$$) can do bonding, load balancing, and redundancy at the same time per each flow going to the VPN, it also does packet steering if one link goes down in aggregation mode. If parallel downloads are detected, or flows with the same source, they are load balanced instead of aggregation, provides much better performance and no buffer bloat. Uses DPI to detect sensitive connections and routes them to the redundant channel. It also stops bonding and sticks to load balancing if the majority of the uplinks are bad. e.g:

ISP1 Good: LB + aggregation channel with 2 + redundant channel / ISP2 Good: LB + aggregation channel with 1 + redundant channel / ISP3 Bad: LB + redundant channel

or

ISP1 Good: LB + redundant channel / ISP2 Bad: LB + redundant channel

"Bad" as very high latency difference or/and packet loss. Packet aggregation is used only when a single TCP download session is detected. LB is preferred.

It solves all the issues when combining different types of internet which deemed to be impossible or poor before.

Speedify seems to be capable of doing packet aggregation, load balancing, and redundancy simultaneously per each connection flow. Any alternative? (preferably open or self-hosted)

Does it incur any impact on your life? Was it a thought or a challenge?

They are human traits when they are relatively easy to overcome, not easy at all with ADHD.

That's what most people don't understand regarding high spec laptops. Then they will start talking about remote streaming... desktop + cheap laptop = 18-wheeler + bicycle.
To add, gpu accelerated, low to non cpu usage as well with recent drivers, unlike the 99% other solutions, no more whiney fans. It reliably works with recent hardware only, you may see few performance profile options to choose from, that is an indication of HW accel.
