  • I’ve been a fan of the dual boot option (sometimes separate hard drives)

    Boot PC. Press F8. Select Windows drive and boot to windows 10 for gaming.

    Most of time it defaults to Linux and that’s where i live the other 97% of the time

    I have the same setup on my laptop. There’s always something easier on Windows whether I like it or not and it’s good to have the option.

    Never had an issue with them coexisting.







  • Yeah I hear you on that.

    Maybe just find a spot to start a conversation and see what comes of it. Maybe list a couple recent projects and what you want to do next. See what other folks are working on and If enough interest.

    I’m currently working on some VLAN segmentation for IOT and have several IOT things blocked from accessing the Internet (like my network printer and some smart lights) (I run openHAB for home automation locally) , I also have some DNS blocking.

    I have some USB logic analyzers and want to play with sigroc but haven’t got around to that. Also built an oscilloscope and want to learn to use it more (might make a signal generator so I can use some known frequencies and such) to ensure the oscilloscope is dialed in.


  • I had to look that up. So ya, I understand your problem a bit better. Wish I could offer some solutions.

    For anyone interested…

    “Starlink uses Carrier-Grade NAT (CGNAT) to avoid the need for 1,000s of IPv4 addresses, which can be a problem for some users due to how they are using Starlink. However, some VPN services like PureVPN can be used to bypass CGNAT restrictions on Port Forwarding.1 CGNAT prevents direct access to the Starlink antenna from the internet, making setting up a VPN or hosting services challenging. There is no direct public IP address assigned to the Starlink antenna, which hinders traditional methods of setting up a VPN server or hosting services like port forwarding and DMZ access”

    I will first admit that I am quite ignorant to Home Assistant.

    I am a happy openHAB user for 5+ years. Have you considered switching to see if you like it?

    I tried Home Assistant once or twice but never felt comfortable enough to switch.

    I run stuff locally and can connect over VPN to my home and operate as if I am inside the home. I have not looked into these other cloudflare tunnels or tail scale as I don’t think it would provide any advantage to my current setup.

    OpenVPN server running on my router does the trick.
