Yep, a Tailscale funnel URL is publicly accessible to anyone who knows it. And while it doesn’t expose your machine’s IP, Jellyfin is exposed publicly. Only the port you configure is reachable, but that doesn’t make it secure in itself - you definitely need more security. I don’t have anything critical on my server so I’m not overly concerned but I still use CSF to block traffic from most every other country and limit abuse.

Nobody here with a tailscale funnel?? It’s such a simple way to get https access from anywhere without being on the tailnet.

Packs a punch vs crunchy but bland?? Are the celebrities the croutons? And is this a common regional saying somewhere? I kind of like it

Agreed! Knowing what I was getting myself into was the only reason I even bought my MacBook. One thing not mentioned in that write-up is that if you increase your swap file size to offset the limited RAM it’s surprisingly quick still, I assume due to a fast nvme drive. For my use case it’s perfect. I’m even able to run some LLMs using Ollama that don’t otherwise work with 8gb of memory.

For Windows machines I’ve found the Linux experience has vastly improved over the years. It seems that most mass-market hardware is functional right out of the box.

I think hibernate is a missing function - I’ve never tried it though. Here’s a good write-up on the pros/cons and potential issue depending on your use case :

Maybe not what you’re looking for, but I use Asahi Linux on an old M1 MacBook Air and it’s quite nice. I bought it used for $480 last year.

Wait, you’d prefer a rando barrel plug to a standard USB-C PD?? Why?

Long ago, pre-internet I read this sci-fi book “Star Chase” by Brian Royal that I found at the library. (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1520203)

I later looked it up and found out it was a blatant plagiarism of “Escape Across The Cosmos” by Gardner F Fox.

Even the authors name was faked!

Not a medical procedure, but take the time to reevaluate your medical plan before open enrollment! Look at the cheaper plans and see how much you’d save in premiums. It might be greater than the difference in max out of pocket. And if you get a qualified “high deductible” plan you can even contribute the savings to an HSA that you get to rollover and keep forever into retirement, without ever paying taxes on it.

Key points:

Temperatures in that part of the Atlantic cooled off more rapidly than at any time in records extending back to 1982. This sudden shift is perplexing because the strong trade winds that normally drive such cooling have not developed.
