Technology websites should just add a top level menu - “Google Abandoned”

What are the tunnel subnets? Are you using a reverse proxy to access local devices, or DNS rewrites?

I’d start by looking for subnet overlap somewhere.

I’m not clear about your setups at all sites. In the details for case 4 there’s a Firestick (customized Android) connected to WG (WG running on the Firestick?) but in your summary there’s a laptop in case 4 and the Firestick isn’t mentioned.

I suspect at least part of the problem is that Android does not tunnel hotspot client traffic. It provides Internet but not WG connectivity. Only the phone’s apps will be able to connect through the WG tunnel.

Running Mint for apps like Jellyfin and Icecast that aren’t critical, and Debian for apps like Frigate that are. Mint is easier to manage and more convenient, but Debian is amazingly reliable. Docker is used for everything.

Consider adding Wireguard or similar for anywhere access. I have Tasker automatically connect whenever I’m not on home wifi so everything is always available without having detectable open router ports.

1000 to 1 the Epstein files say otherwise.

NBC news article referenced paywalled.

As expected, the case against the SPLC brought by the child rapist cheerleaders at the DOJ begins to fall apart.

Won’t someone think of the child rapists?

Republicans - Grand Old Pedophiles are on the job.

You didn’t mention it can also recognize and identify wildlife, trash cans, lawnmowers, license plates, delivery truck companies, and even faces.

I’ve been using Frigate for years. The built in object detection (without subscription) is excellent and very near 100% accurate. Initial setup was somewhat of challenge though. It’s free (donations encouraged) or a low cost subscription for more advanced detection.

As interesting as this is, users are still subject to the whims of a corporation that can completely change their policies each time a new executive is hired.

There’s a graveyard somewhere for apps and services that were free or low cost (and without ads) until the company decided to change their model to restrict or eliminate free usage. Teamviewer, Dropbox, RealVNC, Google Drive, Amazon Prime (ad free) Videos, Duolingo, Youtube, Zoom and Evernote are examples that lots of individuals use.

I’ve personally been bitten by this often enough to avoid any corporation’s “free” service whenever possible.

If you’re not dealing with CGNAT, Dynamic DNS (DDNS) is relatively easy to set up, doesn’t require a VPS and is designed specifically for dealing with changing IP address endpoints.

Instead of connecting using your (sometimes changing) IP address, you use a URL that dynamically updates when your IP changes. For instance, with DDNS you would access your home network using mynetwork.ddnsservice.com. The DDNS service returns your current IP and your connection can complete. Most routers have built DDNS clients that update the DDNS service when your home IP changes.

There are various DDNS services out there, but I like DuckDNS. It’s free (or you can choose to donate), easy to set up and has worked flawlessly for me for years.

The US media loves to pretend that all of this corruption is not corruption at all.

It features quote after quote from public figures all over the political spectrum, including some who know Trump personally, saying things to the effect that the President pooped out his brain and accidentally stepped on it and it shot out from under his shoe and smashed into a wall and splattered all over the place and then he fell down a flight of stairs into a swimming pool and was underwater for 12 straight minutes and has not been the same ever since they hauled him out and drained the gallon of pool water from inside his skull.

Lol!

You’d think running against a Russian agent, pedophile, rapist, thief, insurrectionist and an unapologetic fascist would be easy, but the Democrats will “Go High” and fuck it up again anyway.

For years there were opinion pieces in publications about how much better renting is than buying. Financial experts made the case that the expense of purchasing and maintenance weren’t worth any benefits of ownership, especially in the long term. After dealing with big rent increases, insane landlords, and apartments being shown while I was living in them I wasn’t convinced. When adding in the relative stability in the of costs of ownership I always thought those experts were full of crap.

Turns out none of those articles took sudden increases in property values and rent into account. Trying to rent an apartment for someone on a moderate fixed income in my area has become damn near impossible. Rents have gone up ~60% in 5 years far exceeding the COL increases most people see from retirement income or even the raises they may be getting from their employers if they’re working.

Buying a home was one of the best financial decisions I’ve ever made.

Battery charge limit will allow you to set it to stop charging at partial charge. Doing so greatly increases the battery lifespan and can reduce possible fire risk even further while still leaving far more backup time than a UPS would provide.

See if that laptop model allows you to limit the battery charge. If the battery’s still holding a charge, isn’t swollen, and is kept at room temperature you have about a 1 in a million chance of a battery fire.

Parking your car in your garage has hundreds of times more fire risk.

Try testing TLP in battery mode even if you’re not using a laptop. You can configure all kinds of things to your liking with it.

I tried it out a few years ago and none of my server apps showed any noticeable decrease in performance with it running, but my power monitoring plug did show a reduction in power consumption. I ended up leaving it enabled all the time.

Putin’s lackey just needs an excuse to follow his boss’s orders.
