The way I do it for a family member with Tailscale is them having a couple of boxes down there (n100 with their Jellyfin server, and a RPI4 with a TVHServer) with my Tailnet signed in, and those boxes running both a “subnet router” and an "exit node"that both me and said fam member can use.

This means she has permissions to use the exit node wherever like I do to my own local LAN, to connect to her LAN and access things locally since you can assign them via the ACL’s / device perms.

I know reading docs can suck sometimes but honest to god the ones that Tailscale put up are pretty awesome.

Along with all the YT videos about it I didn’t even have to go nagging on forums to get it to work, and that’s a general first for me.

Clickbait from Forbes, with not a single mention of 2FA/Two Factor Auth?

Colour me not surprised.

Yeah, UK here and a couple of times I get errors about not being able to connect to the relay server in London + Amsterdam also with a public IP address from my ISP, but seem to have no issues even when it shows them unable to connect to the relay servers. The external Tailnet down at fam members house is FTTP but CG-NAT’ed, and why I love how TS works around it. Somehow.

But I have to ask. Have you setup the Tailnet with this fix for IP Forwarding on a subnet router (this helps me so much for tech support on said Tailnet…) and also UDP

I’m currently on my phone but I recall having to ensure the Mini PC w/Ubuntu / Pi4 with Raspbian down at their house had both the above when bringing Tailscale, up.

Even when it works it’s much slower to connect to my server than VPN.

I wonder why.

Wireguard / TS runs faster than VPN’s, and even my family member has had a couple of devices on my Tailnet down at their place for a couple of years now, and they haven’t a clue how it works and fully believe I’m a magician.

Any background on your connection/location/devices etc?

It’s an expensive journey if you wanna ever keep near Moores Law and why I like handing down shit.

A family member has my old Synology NAS and they still can’t get their head around Jellyseer but understands it, works.

It then also gives me a test + bonus backup place. Have fun!

See the thing is I know it offends many Indians people when they shit talk post about their respective countries.

A quick skim of your post history shows you like Joe Rogan, and stuff from Yankland and their politics.

But the most funny thing is when people get offended by “bad news” from their “Country”. I’m from the UK and some of the shit we see in the news is hilariously stupid these days and I take shitposting with a pinch of salt. You should try it too ;)

ninjaedit for example: “Oi mate, did u get stabbed 'cause u didn’t av a TV Lociense fella?”

Or even edit two - https://files.catbox.moe/x8t4rx.jpg

Fourth person chiming in here !chellomere@lemmy.world, and I’ve pretty much the same as the above guys.

Segmented the NAS to being a NAS + arrr stack, N100 for Immich/Jellyfin HW transcoding, RPi3& 5 for Adguard and TVHeadend server.

I like the idea of there not being a single point of failure.

I have, and that’s my point.

I’m a lowly drone pilot that isn’t really made to understand what those lights mean but did out of my sheer curiosity.

But the average pedestrian is going to take some, teaching?

Possibly, and I’d be interested in some sort of 360° LED on top of a vehicle to indicate to pedestrians and other drivers alike of its (de)acceleration.

But jamming some non standard colours in what is a long term understanding on the front of a vehicle I can’t really get with and would like to see the impact to people with partial / colour blindness with using such a system.

Like, does the average pedestrian know what the green and red lights mean on an aircraft? I bet not.

Like someone said in the hnews comments, this might work for auto transmission but with manual gearing you’ve got people using engine braking on hills.

Also like stated in the article the colouring is going to be an issue and trying to see some green lights whilst the headlights are on (full beam fog lights perhaps too?) doesn’t seem practicable to me.

But in general I think you’re probably right that literacy can decrease with disuse

Maths is a really good example of this.

At one point I really enjoyed doing long division in my head but as time goes on (and you don’t exercise that sponge…), it becomes lazy.

I’m finding it confusing as an old fart that they can’t distinguish the terminology even thou they’re on the Fediverse.

Amazing 😁

but IDK if I’m great at it.

Simples is best, hands down. Maybe some tooltips wouldn’t go amiss on your demo page?

But as someone else pointed out, a link to the GitHub either in the header or footer of your demo page would be ace too. It was the first thing I looked for this morning seeing your posts and had to come back to the comments to find it 🙈

Keep up the great work, and I shared between our nerd group and they have eyeballs on it. Seems a no brainer for teams collaborating online where we’ve got used of shitty Slack 🤢 Dicksword whatever.

ninjaedit: if you want some help Android app wise, give us a ping. I have a few bored devs lurking looking for app ideas ;)

I love it, and along with the folder they get dumped into being R/O means Immich (and by extension me…) can’t fugg up the timeline ;)

Nah, more like a better WhatsApp but with haters even worse than the WhatsApp haters.

SMB (the protocol) works across devices and OS’s, and I use SMBSync2 to dump my photos to my NAS + off site

This has worked fine for me for years even thou the app isn’t on the Play Store anymore, and is fairly granular in regards to file types and where you wanna back them up
