Not really a problem with putting other stuff on it, apart from adhering to security standards. If you want to separate your personal stuff from hosted stuff, go ahead, but just because its torrent, doesnt make it much different.
Put it in a VM if you dont have a second machine i guess.
Strong argument, anything else?
To be fair, any proper VPN setup that only relies on the routing table like this is flawed to begin with.
If the VPN program dies or the network interface disappears, the routes are removed aswell, allowing traffic to leave the machine without the VPN.
So it is already a good practice to block traffic where it shouldnt go (or even better, only allowing it where it should).
Many VPN-Programs by Providers already have settings to enable this to prevent “leaking”.

Unikely… Kinda why VR also didnt get too popular, most players just prefer “classic” controls and not movement-controls.
But this is huge for VR and other usages of this, probably even useful for production routing, but i dont have any knowledge of that.
to be fair, they specifically target the way google ranks these websites. If google would rank them with less impact of what the website “bastardizes”, this could be generally less of an issue in the first place.
Just saw it too :D
Why would you ever need such a feature? Closed.
We cant read Apples mind, so thats wishful thinking. But sending telemetry (even if hidden) means it can be used.
Thats why e.g. Apple is using Differential Privacy for apps to use… to not have to give the Apps full access to e.g. usage data.
Of course Apple themselves isnt necessarily bound to that system themselves, who knew…
And why not allow other Apps to replace your default Apps if you want to? Why not have access to that Freedom?
After all you should be able to do anything you want with your system… or maybe you dont believe in this kind of freedom. Could just buy an Android phone. Fuck the person who wants to actually own their hardware, right? How could they be so dumb and want actual freedom, haha.
No, we play pretend while Freedom is further taken away under “Privacy” claims. Maybe that replacement battery will send your usage pattern via shortwave radio to an agent nearby…
you want a frontend, not the “service” itself.
Under “service” i usually understand the main logic part of something. In this case the LLM-processing itself.
Thats probably where the confusion is coming from here.
Bandwidth is one part… Storage is theother and usually you have less storage than bandwidth anyways.
Please include the actual calculations for energy-prices as many, you may not know, live in different locations and pay different prices compared to you.
Seemy like you dont know how the cli actually works.
So if you ever have to touch the CLI (not sure when a normal user would need to), you complain you dont know the CLI instead of learning the tools you want to use?
Lots of stuff on Windows didnt work for me when i wanted advanced things… very intuitive to fix that, if it was even possible.
Every system has its fair share, but if you are unwilling to learn and understand your tools before using them, you might drill yourself in the hand. Windows is just a bit over-protective before you can do so.
Hetzner Storagebox is $3.5/M for 1TB
As far as i understood tailscale funnel its just a TCP-tunnel.
So you handle TLS on your own system, which makes sure tailscale cannot really interfere.
If you already trust them this far, might aswell do the same with a VPS and gain much more flexibility and independence (you can easily switch VPS provider, you cannot really switch tailscale funnel provider, you vendor-locked yourself in that regard)
I’d connect the VPS and your home system via VPN (you can probably also use tailscale for this) and then you can use a tcp-tunnel (e.g. haproxy), or straight up forward the whole traffic via firewall-rules (a bit more tricky, but more flexible… though not that easy with tailscale… probably best to use TCP-tunnel with PROXY-Protocol).
This way you can use all ports, all protocols, incoming and outgoing traffic with the IP-Address of the VPS.
Tailscale might even already have something that can configure this for you… but i dont really know tailscale, so idk…
And as you terminate TLS on your home-system, traffic flowing through the VPS is always encrypted.
If you want to go overboard, you can block attackers on the server before it even hits your home-system (i think crowdsec can do it, the detector runs on your home-system and detects attacks and can issue bans which blocks the attacker on the VPS)
And yes, its a bit paranoid… but its your choice.
My internet connection here isnt good enough to do major stuff like what i am doing (handling media, backups and other data) so i rent some dedicated machines (okay, i guess a bit more secure than a VPS, but in the end its not 100% in your control either)
Many systems dont support subpaths as it can cause some really weird problems.
As you use tailscale funnels, you really want incoming traffic from the internet. I am not sure thats a good idea for e.g. homeassistant that is limited in access anyways.
Might aswell use tailscale and access the system over VPN.
And for anything serious i wouldnt use something like funnel anyways. Rent a VPS and use that as your reverse-proxy, you can then also do some caching or host some services there. Much simpler to deal with and full support for such things as you then have an actual public IPv4/IPv6 address to use.
Heck, dont even have to pay for it with the Oracle Always-Free system.
How much time do you have? Because even small models will take alot of time on that kind of hardware to spit out a long text…
And the small models arent that great. I think the current best and economic model would be a mistral, mixtral or dolphin.
If you got the power, nous-capybara is very good and “only” 34B parameters (loading alone needs like 40GB of memory).
I dont see how e.g. arch would be super hard to maintain.
There is a nice GUI program for installing programs and updates. (like many modern distros)
If you dont want to set everything up, go with Endeavour or Garuda.
I find rolling release to be easier to maintain and keep up to date than non-rolling.
Specially if you want up to date packages for desktop use.
Windows has a request assistance function? wtf… where is that found?
I only know Remote desktop tools and most of these work perfectly fine on linux as the client or even under Wine.
[Edit: woah, i did some rambling below here… not related to your specific case here, but some nice information maybe]
Linux as host is where it gets funny… bigger ones support X11, pretty much none support Wayland.
To be fair, its impossible to control mouse and keyboard under Wayland without root.
I think we now have some new desktop packages for gnome and kde which can do that, so now they need to be implemented.
But i dont see an effort being made for Wayland by the bigger providers in the near future… the market just isnt there and there is lots of uncertainty with the featureset.
Switched to Rustdesk a while back, works nicely as client, but only picture output with wayland as host.l as of now.
And i cannot copy&paste under wayland as client… even though it worked before…
Dont. They are notoriously bad at such things. Lack of Hardware acceleration mainly. These old Chips and problems with single-board-complications are just not worth it at such high prices.
An Intel N100 MiniPC will have much more compute with less complications.
