Does it have a central fugue? Classical physics teachers don't want to talk about that but if you look back to the Baroque interpretation it was all the rage.

"Thank you for doing the work. It's done now, so I don't need it any more, so I won't be paying you. Also you can't sue me because you read my magazine once back in the 80s and it's in the fine print, but here's a t-shirt with our logo across the front and back, and a commendation on your CV. It says, 'good worker, no complaints.' That's exec talk for, 'you can screw this guy over without worrying, so go ahead and hire him.'"

I suppose, in fairness, climbing the top part is a bit harder than climbing the bottom part.
Though, if you think about it, quite a lot quicker.

I have heard the (Nepali-speaking) Nepalis didn't even have a name for it at that point, and I have a feeling Qomolungma wasn't known to the Brits, because the mountain was surveyed from far away at that point.
Incidentally, "Tibetans and Nepalis on either side of the mountain"- it's Tibetans on both sides. On the Nepali side are the Tibetan group known as Sherpa, whence we get the term Sherpa for a Nepali/Tibetan mountain guide. Further south than the Sherpa people are 'Nepali' people by ethnicity. (And of course properly there's a lot more than two ethnic groups in a cross section of Nepal!)

Feeling depressed? Lost? Lacking identity? Go back to your roots. Be an asshole.
Is your friend an asshole? Give them time. They'll grow into a baby.
We were all assholes once. But with diligence, and nurture, you too can grow into living, breathing, people. Thank you class of '41, and I look forward to seeing you after you're all born.

I took a quick look at the GitHub repo - selfhosted Netbird looks harder and more resource hungry, not easier! At least compared to Nebula.

Wow, self-hosting Netbird is a lot more involved than Nebula, and needing a lot more resources!

- Biggest thing was actually the sign up options. What if I don't want my machines calling to Google or Microsoft to get access to Tailscale? I need to look up the other OIDC providers but don't know much about that yet.
- Then the fact of Nebula being fully open source and fully on my machines. (Though that's a little undercut by the Android problem being solved only by their managed service).
- Headscale gave me an impression of being more complicated to set up and maintain. Haven't tried it yet, that was just my feel when I chose which one to try.
- More recently, I saw Nebula's interesting post on performance benchmarks. At high throughout Tailscale can be better for CPU but heavier on memory. Hopefully at my sort of very low throughout it's small on memory but if I'm squeezing a client into a cheap vps alongside nextcloud and other things, memory use is more concerning to me than CPU... I wonder how much memory Tailscale uses when not doing much.

Does Tinc have advantages over Nebula? I was under the impression that both Nebula and Tailscale improved on Tinc, albeit in different ways.

I agree having a paid service, or some viable finance model, is a good sign for longevity ...that said Nebula is what Slack use themselves so publicly or privately it's going to be kept developed!
Just the fact the Android client is only properly configurable if you use their managed config service, made me worry a bit. Even though Tailscale you're signing up for more eggs in their basket (unless you use Headscale), it felt like at least you start out on that basis, you aren't pushed into it unexpectedly.
I do like that both projects talk politely about each other. That feels like a good sign for both!
I'll check out Netbird, thank you.
I've been playing around with self hosting for file sharing, backups, and a handful of other ideas I might one day get round to. I like the idea of a mesh VPN and being able to, for example, connect a travelling laptop to a 'host' laptop nearby, though my only public ip is a VPS in another country. Of all the options I found, I liked the look of Nebula most. Fiddly in some places, but it's working nicely for me, and I appreciate some of the simplicity of design. I'm wondering if people here have much experience of it, though? My biggest concern is over its future. With, 1. The Defined Networking site focusing on making money off it, and 2. The Android app doesn't allow full configuration (including the firewall, so I can't host a website from a phone) but - I heard - does if you use Defined Networking's paid service for configuration, makes me worry they might be essentially trying to deprecate viable FOSS Nebula in favour of a paid or controlled service. Any thoughts? Insight?
So, I updated Tumbleweed, and the updates to KDE caused my Plasma/Wayland session to restart, breaking the updates part way through. I wasn't watching at the time so took some while to debug! Spent some time learning how to use nm-cli, because new half-upgraded KDE wouldn't load the network widget. It looks like something else may have changed and mucked up in the half-update (and of course I rebooted like a wise-man/dummy/i-dont-know-but-at-least-it-didnt-make-it-work) but iterations of trying things in nmcli eventually worked! Finally tried zypper dup again and saw the session restart, so finished the job from the virtual terminal! At last, I seem to have a working computer again, and I might just brave updating my main laptop. (I cancelled the update while it was still downloading packages, after seeing the breakage on the other laptop!)
I finally watched Frozen 2 on the plane a few days ago. Did somebody pay Disney to shill for homeopathy?
Hi I've been gradually finishing my first and only-main farm, and wanted to share :-) It started as the central plaza and fish ponds (since I came to love fishing!) and grew from there. I was going to get all-seasons screenshots and post together, but that's going soo slowly; and, hey, content! Hope you like it! I think there's a little bit of just about everything there, and if you look closely you can see me sitting on a bench enjoying the flower garden. It's been single player until right at the end I added the 'guest lodges' to share with family and friends. I love how well they fit in places I hadn't planned!
