  • I know this is a Linux community and therefore we love to hate on Windows…

    but for anyone that hasn’t used Windows in a while, they actually finally implemented relatively decent package manager in the form of “winget”. When you add the wonderful UniGetUI on top of it you get a pretty good experience.

    It had issues early on with consistency but the last ~year or two has seen it get a ton of improvement. It’s much more reliable than it used to be.

    Obviously “it’s about goddamn time” and it doesn’t hold a candle to mature package manager like what’s available on Linux.

    But if you’ve not experienced it before, and are forced to use Windows sometimes, it’s worth checking out.

    I’m trying so hard not to hate this post but you have given me so many reasons to

    • use of UwU in something I absolutely need to share with others

    • mismatched fonts

    • comic something font

    • no human readable data next to the QR code

    • mismatched gradient radii in the corners

    Make it stop 😭

    EDIT: For those who care, this comment falls into the category of “said in jest, meant in earnest”. I know it’s all on-brand and comedic, but my gut reactions are what they are 😂








  • Site-to-site and individual client setups are not mutually exclusive. They can co-exist.

    I have Wireguard on both my phone and laptop - and tailscale should work the same way - which I only activate when I’m away from my home network.

    You could even set it up where each “roaming” device is always connected to their “home” network by VPN, which uses site-to-site to further route the traffic where it needs to go.


  • I recommend looking into setting up site-to-site VPN configurations between routers at each location. I have this set up between my home network and my parents’ network.

    Once you have it properly configured you can simply have the router itself handle routing of specific traffic over the VPN connection, instead of needing each device to connect to the VPN individually.

    it’s a bit more complicated to set up and maintain but not anything outrageously complex, and absolutely worth it for your use case IMO
