hShop? That’s still very much a thing. I put it on my kids’ 3DSXL consoles.

Whatever happened to vBulletin? That was peak forum software. Simple to use, no frills, and no bloated tracking shit.

All the car community forums are operated by Fora at this point, and they’re trying to push some bullshit AI assistant called “ForaFrank”. I blocked it on every car forum I’m a part of, and have encouraged others to do the same.

Only thing id note though is you probably want some kind of SSD for the camera storage.

Good idea.

Regarding the doorbell, one option you have is to try finding a second-hand Unifi G4 Doorbell (non-pro). It can be wired with only the two wires you already have. Just make sure you have relatively good 5GHz WiFi reception near your front door, because the 2.4GHz antennas on this model are notably bad.

I’ve been watching the wifi G4 doorbell like a hawk, it’s just perpetually sold out 😂 eBay listings aren’t any better, being even more expensive…
