New fiber customer with questions

I have just become a new fiber customer in the last several weeks and so far quite good with one outage that lasted serveral hours.

Will Spectrum be implenting 2FA/MFA autentication for login security in the near future? If so, I hope Spectrum offers more authentication options than just SMS texting like most other companies/businesses or not have SMS texting at all.

I just activated the Amazon Prime offer on the Spectrum site and I would like to ask if one goes ad free will one be responsible for the $4.99 fee.

I was already an Amazon Prime member and I joined Amazon back in late August. Do I need to log out of Amazon on my Roku and then log back in?

Thanks.

Fiber Installation

Hello.

Spectrum will be installing fiber at my residence in a few weeks and I have a question.

Is the fiber cable that will go from the outside splice box to the modem the same as the fiber the construction crew pulled from the pedestal to that outside splice box?

The construction crew left me extra cable and I was wondering if I could use the extra left over cable to pull from the outside box to where the modem will be placed to do some prep work for the install person. The fiber will need to be placed in the crawl space and I have no idea if the install technician would be willing to go into the crawl space to run the cable, and I also plan to install some conduit in the crawl space to help protect the cable and make it easier for the install.

Podman experts, will you give me some advice for a beginner?

Hello, JJ here.

I would like to get started using Podman as a novice who has no experience with Podman or Docker. I have seen that one should use Podman instead of Docker, especially since it is open source. I want to learn how to use it.

I have a spare Rpi 4b with 8GB that I'm not using at the moment and I was thinking I would use it.

My delima is I do not know which OS I should use. Keep in mind that I will be a total novice starting out with Podman. Please recommend to me which would be the best OS to start with for this noobie novice. I do use Linux some but I almost always have to look up which commands I need to use to do something.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated to help me get started.

Thanks,

jj

Looks like Fedora Server is on top along with Cockpit. Great. I will go with Fedora Server. I will take a look at Fedora IOT to see if it is not above my "pay grade". I'm retired with time on my hands and I still like to learn and be challenged.

Thanks.
