@JaredBusch Nice find. the second one is the once changed by the setting in your video. That other one must be an override to enforce M$ wishes on the end user!

Is it on a domain?

Not in your initial budget, but we install these all day long:

And we use this USB extender because NONE of the others we normally use (like Gefen) will work well with cameras.

I hope it is this simple.

Since it doesn't look like Nextcloud will ever address this method, does anyone have any real world experience and thoughts on Nextcloud's other methods of accessing offsite storage?

Specifically: while using human readable paths and filenames.

This is from Nextcloud's site, and it gives me hope.......

Any storage technology you need
Some of the storage technologies supported in Nextcloud include NFS and local storage as well
as scalable, multi-bucket capable object storage like S3 and SWIFT compatible and 
CIFS/Windows Shares. Nextcloud can also seamlessly access files on (s)FTP, SharePoint 
systems and more.

Thanks!

IF your intercom unit can be inside and you can hard-wire your mic input and speaker output from the SIP Intercom device, here is what we use for this same scenario:

Speaker:

Mic:
https://smile.amazon.com/Mono-Stereo-Parabolic-Microphone-Standard-060-Polycarbonate/dp/B00GGX3X7W

Because it is parabolic, it doesn't have to be close to the subject. We install them about 10' feet away.

These mics are so focused, we don't hear any engine noise, only the driver.

We build a gable roof (roof only) over the dish and the roof has only one end. We place the dish at the far end (the capped end) from the vehicle. The roof is sized so the disk is completely up/inside the roof line. The open end of the roof is at the vehicle side of the setup.

The mic array detects sound from air flow through the mic element, so you have to protect the mic array inside the dish from unfriendly weather while still allowing sound vibrations to get to the mic itself. This is why the roof with an open end. We used to cap both ends and cut a 22" circle at the vehicle end, but, for the extra work, it didn't really provide any additional protection from the elements.

Eventually the mic gets ruined. So we just replace the mic, while using the same dish, mount, and roof.

Wildtronics has a weatherproof mono parabolic coming out sometime next year. When that happens, you can do away with the roof.

The black dishes are less expensive that the clear dishes.

Lots of places offer wordpress hosting for very low cost. Here's one example:
https://www.dreamhost.com/wordpress/shared-wp-hosting/

They offer hosting, but expect you to be a competent, experienced web master doing your own database management and they never (AFAIK) give you cache access so that you can properly manage your WP instance. I know of no service like that where you get a good site in the end because to do so requires a level of technical integration at the app layer that they can't provide.

For someone who is just starting out, and using it for personal use, it will likely be a perfect stepping stone.
