i rather pay money and get a 1y or 2y certificate rather than use those ephemeral let's encrypt ones for free. The overhead of automatization(implementation, maintenance, support, patching, updating...) is not worth it.
Can you get a 2-year certificate now? I thought it was already gone. On the other hand, I love Let's Encrypt, especially when paired with go-acme/lego. It works flawlessly, and I don't need to worry about my certificate expiring or forgetting to renew it each year. I can always monitor my certificates too.
FreeBSD is a cool OS, especially as a work machine. Once, I almost joined a company where my first assignment was to install FreeBSD on my work computer. It worked really well, and I actually liked using xfce. What a time! I was young, the grass was green, and the skies were blue.
I personally play just a few games on Nintendo, and I own an unpatched Switch, so theoretically, I could "sail the seas under the Jolly Roger," but I don't really have time for that many games. On the other hand, those games are soooo expensive. I guess Nintendo should get a fair share for games because they put so much hard work into them. I'm not really sure which side to support.
