Fried or fertilized?

I would retire if the math makes sense. A great pension in the future doesn’t help if you’re too old to enjoy life.

I’ve used no-ip.com for years without issue.

My NAS supports a few services out of the box. If you have anything like that, see what they support natively first.

Cg-nat ipv4, but it has ipv6 too. There are ways to deal with that though. I use Tailscale.

Can you hit the port?

Ping,Tracert,Knock on the port with Telnet.

I’m guessing firewall rules related to your vpn.

This is a trade off. Many of these apps work on osx and Linux because they are browser-based. If they go back to native apps you lose that portability.

Uber and Lyft, by forcing cab services to get better while paying good.

Cast iron sears better for sure.

I use decent stainless steel for everything else. Non-stick scares me.

I love Lucy/superman.

There’s nothing wrong with hardware raid. You can probably pass them through as individual drives.

I would use them as is but only buy sata going forward.

Sounds like this affected a very small number of users. Anyone see this themselves?

Starlink.

Name and shame.

Stop calling it green and start calling it cheap/free if you want to make some progress.

You responded to a question with an incorrect answer. I was correcting that.

VPNs shouldn’t need to forward any ports when using ipv6. They can provide an entire ipv6 subnet to you.

Port forwarding is a function of NAT. It’s only needed because there aren’t enough ipv4 addresses for every device, so in most networks a lot of devices share a single ip and specific ports are forwarded to specific internal hosts

IPv6 has a large enough address space that this isn’t needed. You can still do it if you want. But mostly you just need a firewall without any NAT.

There’s more to it than this but you should get the idea.
