I'm not familiar with Amazon blink cameras. I use a reoLink and a Raspberry Pi for two cameras that go to a dedicated Zone Minder NVR server which is firewalled off from any internet access or access to other networks within my house.
reolink was pretty easy, blocking all wan traffic is very important - I'm sure like any store-bought solution. the raspberry pi is low quality and obviosuly a diy solution, but is ok. zoneminder is one of a handful of open source nvr softwares. It's not great in my opinion. I don't think it uses resources efficiently and it's a bit of a pain to set up initially. But from what i read all of these opensource nvr apps have their quirks.

i read good things about amcrest cameras

curious, why aren't you able to self-host your blink cameras; are they ip cameras and is there an rtp stream you can capture?

I'm interested in seeing what you come up with.

Does something like podHoarder fit the bill?

i used OpenScan recently, another FOSS app - worked ok. Sources: Izzy's repo or Google Play

without a ton of thought, and other than my current house:

  • travel, in general. recently a trip to sail out of svalbard down to norway. it's another world up there

  • an inexpensive handtruck is one of the most useful tools i have

  • a 'prosumer' grade espresso machine and a grinder is used and loved every single day

strange, i started having this same issue on brave about 3 months ago. i installed firefox and am not having this problem. no battery / background restrictions set for either

when i was a kid i would go to the library all the time until 10, which was late for me at that age. i wasn't a big reader, but it was a perfect excuse to escape family.

actually, hunter-gatherer communities 'work' significantly less time than we do in our corporate jobs. farming is a different story: here's one study: https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/05/190520115646.htm

Genuinely curious where you're getting these numbers. I can't seem to find any formal public opinion polls on the enacted or proposed bills
