  I really like my new headphones

  What kind?

  Sony ULT Wear

  Nice, Sony makes an excellent headphone. Back in high-school I'd buy a new pair of MDR-V150s every year because I used them so much that the plastic would give out. Always listening to music.

  A side note to this, as I just remembered, is that using that set of headphones as a daily driver while walking around school or riding bike wasn't the easiest with the 3m (9ft) cord they had. They were meant for DJ use, but they sounded great and cost only $50. I'd tie the extra cord in my belt loop to keep it from dragging on the ground.

  And, can your parents do remote hands if you need to check something physically?

  My dad no, my mom has some knowledge that I can call. Worst case, I do have a pikvm there where I can ask her to connect the hdmi and usb cables so I can further troubleshoot if I can't access the device over the network (do have a site-to-site vpn between my lan and theirs)

  Oh that's actually a great setup you have there. Also for connecting are you using plain old SSH or do you have a VPN as well like Tailscale or something?

  I just use ssh and vnc/rdp as needed. Sometimes I do use the pikvm depending on what actually needs to be done. If I'm at home, I can just target those machines directly. If I'm away from home, I either vpn into my home network (then target them) or I will ssh in and tunnel the required ports.

  Ah ok. I am planning to Tailscale my home connection. Still trying to figure out the specifics of DNS as I have a dynamic IP at home.

  When using the Tailscale network you can use the built in DNS, and use the domains they provide. I generally just copy/paste the Tailscale IP from the app though as it's super convenient.

  Oh didnt know this was possible. So, Tailscale gives out domains even on the free plans?

  They're just local addresses that you can use while connected to the Tailscale network, of course. It's like having a LAN but all the devices are scattered over the internet.

  Ah got it. So its not entirely the same. Interesting. I'll have to check it out. Almsot vpn ish

  It's a Wireguard based mesh-vpn system.

  Tailscale is wg based?

  Yes! That's what makes it so dang fast.

  Oh didnt know this. Thanks.

  With as much as I talk it up, you'd almost think I was sponsored, but it really just makes my life so much easier.

  Go apply for an affiliate or something if they have it
