How does it handle Live Photos? I believe they are stored as 2 files. There are also metadata files created when you edit a photo. Does it handle these?

This is a good point. Another problem with streaming services, specifically for music streaming services, is that they can change the track of a previously released album with no user choice to hear the original. Example: Track 4 of Elephunk by the Black Eyed Peas. It was universally replaced with the “clean” version of the song. I’m not a fan of rewriting history.

As long as you embed it with an SRI integrity hash, you're safe, even if the remote server is compromised.

"Before NASA sends astronauts to actually land on the Moon in 2028, they need to be absolutely certain that the Orion spacecraft, the Space Launch System rocket, and all the life-support systems work exactly as intended in the deep space environment where no quick rescue is possible."

They did it 53 years ago. Right? So what’s the problem?

If you just need a simple local s3 server (e.g. for developing and testing), I recommend rclone.

rclone serve s3 path/to/buckets --addr :9000 --auth-key <key-id>,<secret>

It compiles the Go code to WASM, so it can be used browser side.

I am using an alternative which doesn't require any additional browser extensions, but it does require that each client installs a custom root certificate.

I have a split-DNS setup where I override the DNS entries for certain sites like reddit, twitter, and youtube so that they point to a local server. The local server returns privacy-friendly versions of those sites (e.g. spikecodes/libreddit).

I use the root certificate to sign SSL certificates for those domains which will be trusted by each client on the network as long as they've installed the custom root certificate.

That way, when I visit a reddit link from a google search, it automatically returns the privacy friendly version of the site, as long as the root certificate is installed.

This is especially nice using when using iDevices, because those don't support native browser extensions.

This was really educational! I love the design of the webpage, and I especially like how you can rotate the 3d diagrams and see each component from every angle.
