Can I recommend pocketknife? There’s a guy who writes hilarious reviews of knives. Only about one a week, but weird knife Wednesday is almost as high on my list of fun stuff as Taco Tuesday!

I don’t actually use the arr stack, but if you set up Tailscale it won’t hurt anything else by being set up. I just know that it’s pretty straightforward to use, so I thought I’d throw in a good word for it.
Nobody is addressing tailscale so far, so I’ll throw my two cents in: I have tailscale on my phone and my laptop, and I have a bunch of stuff running at home, and they all act like they’re on the same network as long as I’m logged in. There are a lot of alternatives out there, but I find it quite useful. I have immich for my pictures and pihole for ad blocking using docker. The basic docker tutorials are worth following. All I really use is docker ps, docker image docker compose up (-d), docker pull. Nano to edit the yaml files I find online. Unhacked so far!
I’ve used Remmina from Debian Gnome. I had to turn on dynamic resolution update, and had to pick a color theme that was different from the default, but then it worked fine.





Reset, once it’s done downloading (if you go cloud), pull your network cable. When it gets to “let’s get you online” hit shift f-10 which pulls up the terminal window. Type oobe\bypassnro and hit enter. Stay offline, and get back to the same spot in the install process but this time you’ll have a “I don’t have internet” link as an option. It’ll protest, but you can then move forward with a local account. I literally did it yesterday.
Once you have a local account built, Windows will give you “sign in” alerts in settings and in security.
Just for the record, I use Linux. I do however work in a Windows shop and understand that “just use Linux” isn’t at all helpful when someone asks a Windows question.
