Precisely- it’s a concept that is ingrained in people to the point where anyone who doesn’t understand it is viewed as lacking. However, it’s needless.

I don’t need to understand IP addressing subnet routing to go to a website. Why should I need to understand a file and folder structure to find an old tax document?

You use an interesting example- personally, I feel like while files and folders have their place, I prefer they be part of the background and not presented to the user. Take photos, for example. If I’m looking for pictures of my dog, I don’t want to go into the 2022 folder, then the August folder, then look through all those files, back out into 2022 then go into the September folder, etc. I just want to type ‘dog’. Or pick from a dropdown list of common tags, or anything other than digging through files and folders.

A picnic rug and a nice thick blanket do the job, and as a bonus you are always ready for a cosy picnic.

I bet you there is a distro called Pikachu, just to fuck with people like us.

Not to mention the broke single mum tech neckbeards!

Ok can I test your ability to explain it to a child? Why are phone batteries measured in mAh but car batteries are measured in kWh?

It’s no longer accessible from a desktop, only from the Google Maps app.

The router is set as a subnet router, that is how I am able to access other machines on my lan remotely.

I don’t want to, and sometimes can’t, install tailscale on every device I want remote access to.

So I may have duplicate routes- Does that explain the behaviour in my original post? And how would I go about avoiding that?

I could turn off subnet routing, and only turn it on when needed, but I’ll be putting up a bunch of other services that will want to talk to each other- I’m assuming this will break whenever I turn subnet routing on.

I kind of follow what you’re putting down.

I am not using an exit node. How do I go about splitting my routes?

What I want to achieve is ‘normal’ access for within the lan, as well as remote access over tailscale for things I cannot run tailscale on.

I have a commercial VPN, but I am not connected. What tinkering did you have to do?

I set up subnet advertisements by doing tailscale set --advertise-routes=192.168.1.0/24. I did not touch ACL.

The home PC is Windows, the context menu for the tray app give the option to ‘use tailscale subnets’ which is enabled- I assume this is the equivalent of accepting advertised routes.

From the home PC, tailscale ping 192.168.1.2 returns a pong, from the tailscale IP. tracert fails.

Linux newb here. What does this mean? My knowledge of systemd is that it is responsible for things like mounting disks and running networking. So does this mean I can ask systemd to grab a new IP address every x hours, even if the machine is asleep?

I was a little sad when I heard about it, as well as bittersweet while reading The Shepherd’s crown. Then I closed the book, curled up in bed and wept myself to sleep.

I’ve found joy in passing his name on to the next generation.

Have you read Shaking Hands with Death? It’s… cathartic.

The fact they did do all that is what makes this so amazing. The edges of the eyes is what convinced me it’s not a photo.

Yep. I want to choose my own vacation time, thank you very much.

I started with a new employer just before they shut over Christmas. When my next payslip came through and I saw my holiday time had been reduced, into the negative, I was livid.

I never knew prescriptions were country dependent- What differs?
