Daniel Radcliffe used this to his advantage---same outfit, and the paparazzi stopped bothering him:

It was three or four months. Because I was doing a play in London and every night there was paparazzi outside. And I suddenly realized after like after I just had just been lazy and not changed my clothes for a few days, that they were not there. And I realized it’s probably because I’m wearing the same thing so it all looks like photos from the same day. So I was like ‘I’ll just continue wearing this.’ And they never came back because it all looks like the same picture in front of the same door.

If you search around you might find free ones. Oracle has/had a free tier (though it's Oracle, so...).

Yes, but you can run multiple VPS, from different providers, simultaneously.

What I like is that while it does depend on an external provider, it doesn't depend on a specific external provider. Any VPS with a public IPv4 would work.

VPS+VPN, this is what I do.

VPS has public IP and runs WireGuard "server"* and a reverse proxy (and fail2ban...). Reverse proxy points to my home computer over the WireGuard link. No open ports on my home router.

For private facing/LAN-only services I just don't have an entry in the VPS reverse proxy. DNS on the router points everything to my local server, so if at home I access everything directly. To access internal services remotely requires VPN (i.e., WireGuard to the VPS).

Works well; I have a tiny free tier VPS but even so, no complaints.

*Yes I know there are no wg clients or servers, only peers, but it plays a server-likr role.

For me, the real issue is more a question of why she was appointed in the first place. Sunset resident and small business owner are basically her only qualifications---but there are tons of such folks, and I imagine she's one of the only ones with both dead pets in her freezer and (alleged) tax fraud on her resume.

Why not appoint someone for a political position who has, you know, some political experience? Anyone who plays a role in local politics would make a more sensible choice, at least from my perspective.

In a VHCOL area, $100k with one child is extremely tough/you're likely dipping into savings. Our daycare alone is over $40k/yr per kid, and only $5k ($7500 next year) is fully tax exempt.

Median 2 bedroom in my area is over $50k/yr.

$100k doesn't cut it. "Just move to a cheaper area" is IMHO not a proper response to this---anyone who works in my city should be able to afford to raise a family here, with a high quality of life/standard of living, but that's not really the case.

Economically mediated de facto sterilization is an extremely dystopian thing to just accept. I think it's pretty justified to be more or less outraged in this case.

I managed to get it working with IPv6 mangle.

I seem to need 3x mangle rules, preroute mark connection, preroute mark routing, and forward mark routing. I also needed to disable fasttrack for marked connections.

The downside is that there seems to be a performance hit, as mangle is (I guess?) more resource intensive than simple routing rules.

ETA: It seems the mark routing preroute wants an interface (in my case, a VLAN), although my use case is a little funky as I am routing this traffic via WireGuard running on an AP, as the AP CPU is way beefier than my router.

I suspect that if you throw resources at the problem, you can tolerate much more degradation than standard tape readers.

This review of Olive Garden went viral, and the review/reviewer was mocked online---but then Anthony Bourdain came to her defense.

Kinda a cute story, and a fun read.

The messaging on 50 has been great IMHO. Basically, "this is an affront to democracy, but Texas did it first and if we take the moral high ground we're screwed."

Having lived without a dishwasher for many years, I'm never complaining about loading/unloading the dishwasher. From starting the kettle to finishing a pour over is more than enough time to unload.

And never again having to schlep clothes to the laundromat because we have laundry in our home? Likewise, I'm not going to complain. The only reason laundry takes real effort is when we opt to use the clothesline instead of the dryer.

Not everyone has a dishwasher, washing machine, and clothes dryer, so I absolutely recognize that I'm very fortunate here. And the crazy thing is, these devices aren't even particularly expensive, especially since they can be had used

I think a big reason folks don't have them is the installation+room required. Which probably says something about landlords and the general cost per area of housing.
