What about something like nextcloud? You could link nextcloud to external drive/mount like an encrypted google drive for example but keep it tech illiterate friendly for upload/download and read and you could control how you enable the access?

Another idea: https://github.com/9001/copyparty

But it is yet to gain authorisation to operate as a fully fledged bank in the UK.

After a three-year process, its application for a UK banking licence was approved last year, with restrictions imposed until it met conditions set by regulators. But, 12 months later, Revolut still faces restrictions on lending in the UK.

The licence approval triggered a “mobilisation” stage during which time Revolut’s banking division has been allowed to accept deposits of only £50,000 while the company builds out its IT infrastructure, risk controls, compliance functions and other systems.

To calculate the inflation rate, hundreds of government workers called enumerators fan out across cities each month to check how much businesses are charging for products such as blue jeans and services such as accounting, often by visiting bricks-and-mortar stores. Statisticians roll those figures together into the consumer-price index, a data stream that shows how the cost of living is changing for typical Americans.

If the government’s enumerators can’t track down a specific price in a given city, they try to make an educated guess based on a close substitute: say, cargo pants instead of slacks. But in April, with fewer workers on hand to check prices, statisticians had to base their guesses on less comparable products or other regions of the country—a process called different-cell imputation—much more often than usual, according to the BLS

Elon Musk derides Donald Trump’s tax bill as ‘a disgusting abomination’

Billionaire lashes out just as US president urges Senate to pass his ‘big, beautiful’ fiscal plan

Elon Musk has lambasted Donald Trump’s signature tax bill, calling it “a disgusting abomination”, in an outburst that threatens to destroy the relationship between the US president and his billionaire backer.

In a series of posts on his social media site X on Tuesday, Musk, who abruptly left the administration last week, hit out at what he called a “massive, outrageous, pork-filled Congressional spending bill”. 

He added: “Shame on those who voted for it: you know you did wrong. You know it.”

Musk’s comments came just hours after Trump had criticised Republican Senator Rand Paul, a staunch fiscal conservative, for his opposition to the proposed legislation, which the president described as a “BIG GROWTH BILL” on his social media platform.

The legislation, which Trump had coined his “big, beautiful bill”, passed the House last month by one vote and is currently being considered by the Senate. It has been criticised by fiscal hawks for adding trillions to the national debt when investors are already worried about the US’s widening deficit.

Supporters of Musk’s so-called Department of Government Efficiency (Doge) have also criticised the bill, claiming it would undo some of the initiative’s savings.

Asked about Musk’s latest comments, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said: “Look, the president already knows where Elon Musk stood on this bill. It doesn’t change the president’s opinion. This is one big, beautiful bill, and he’s sticking to it.”
