Direction does matter for the cable and hubs. Cables need to be displayport out. Hubs need to support it.
The best solution I found was finding a motherboard or thunderbolt card that supported displayport in.
If you're trying to take a display port signal and USB and convert it to thunderbolt, it needs to be supported. I tried something similar with a portable monitor that took USB-C display and power. It was a bit expensive and I found a lot of leads in VR headset cables.
A simple thing you can do is be informed on what data google is tracking on your phone.
If you are signed into a Google account on your phone, you should check your Google dashboard: https://myaccount.google.com/intro/dashboard and make sure to turn off any tracking you don't want. You can also request your data is deleted through the dashboard or through Google takeout.
If you stay with the built in OS and you can also get away from a Google account (don't sign into a Google account on the phone), you're tracked less, but that's a bit challenging for many.
On Android and I believe IOS it's a single connection. I would start with the basic functionality (also don't create a tailscale account with GitHub bc it does weird things with sharing if you ever want to have multiple users).
Once you've got the VPN and storage working I can think of two options to give you the functionality of 2 vpns
- tasker is an android app that can let you automate a lot. It might let you switch vpns when opening say your storage app and switch back a bit easier than toggling it in settings.
- setup your lap-server at home with an outgoing public VPN so traffic goes mobile device> tailscale> public VPN. Essentially acting like you're home using your public VPN. This may take some tinkering to work properly, especially when you're home on the same network. Plus you would definitely see a Network speed impact on your phone.
Tailscale + truenas is a ~~simple~~ solution that should allow OP access outside the network without any network config. E
As others mentioned, you can probably use a 3 gang standard faceplate.
The other option would be using a Shelly this is wired like a 3-way switch inside the box; the outside will look normal. As long as you have space, I think the mini should work but I'm not super familiar with their models.
I setup openvpn on my network originally + duckdns on a dynamic IP in 2021/2022. It's an "older" protocol but I felt it was easier to setup since it's been around longer and the tools just make it easy.
Wireguard has speed advantages but being newer, takes more work to see those speed advantages. There's a docker container called wg-easy that I've heard mixed things about (speed in a docker container vs easy to setup).
I used tail scale when I rebuilt my VPN server because I was originally using Oracle Linux (wanted to learn it more but went back to Ubuntu).
If you can get certificates working, wireguard shouldn't be too difficult. I prefer VPN over exposing multiple ports/protocols for a family or small userbase. If you're sharing libraries or other services with extended family, I'd probably expose those to the Internet and work on hardening/having that server in a demilitarized zone + certificate based authentication and MFA on any public admin accounts.
How do you go back to the character selection menu without creating a new character that you're stuck with for 18+ years? I wanna reroll with the wealthy traits.
My choices are Verizon FiOS and Xfinity. I'd rather stay with FiOS than move to 5G because I do have some applications that benefit from 1% highs being <20ms ping. Plus when I looked at 5G the pricing was still around that $40-50 range for a decent line of service.
It's just annoying because FiOS has a "2 year price guarantee" for new subscribers but is shafting my prices after 12 months. Xfinity is ~$5 cheaper but setup fees are ~$200 and I have to buy my own modem if I don't want to pay the $10-20 rental fee. All that assumes Xfinity doesn't raise their rates in 2 years.
Lead acid requires maintainance (for non-sealed), proper ventilation, and proper charging. A UPS is going to usually put a battery in harsh conditions and the ones used in UPSs that I've seen are not exactly meant to keep batteries in good condition.
If you plan your setup right, keep them temperature controlled, proper power management within 50-80%, and maintain them, you will get ~5 years. That should give enough time to find a good deal or save up for more expensive batteries.
A few years ago these were considered old reliable for flooded. Golf cart gel batteries (trojan AGM, interstate ECL) will likely be a contender too.
I called my ISP after they bumped prices by $5/month (and told me a single time on the fine print at the bottom of the PDF e-bill of their shitty app). I threatened to switch to their competition and they told me flat out "no you won't they're not as fast and you're not going to break even on setup fees for years".
These Denali nylon pants seem to fit the bill. I've had a pair for ~3 years and they work well traveling. https://www.samsclub.com/p/members-mark-mens-denali-travel-performance-pant/prod26700694
