    Apologies for the late response

    I can access every node by IP (IPv6 to be precise).
    Discovery within a local network happens through regular broadcasts. For connecting different networks, you need to set peering addresses that are reachable and configure the other side to listen.
    You only need one node per network though, the others will automatically discover the path and connect on the best route to their target. If your node in the middle falls over, any other node that's reachable can be used instead. The Yggdrasil Blog posts have some explainations of the algorithms used.

    There's no explicit gateway, but you can use standard routing and firewall tools to do whatever you want. I only use it for accessing internal stuff, not as a full VPN for my client devices, but you could probably make that work by setting one node as router and configure its Yggdrasil ip as you gateway (excluding the traffic you need to connect to the VPN).

    One downside is that everything's still in progress and most versions change significant parts of the routing scheme, meaning it doesn't work with the previous version. It is primarily a research tool for internet scale mesh networks, but releases are also infrequent enough where you shouldn't worry too much.

    I didn't play it at the time because of the bugs, but from what I saw the good parts of Cyberpunk were already present. Stuff like storytelling, interesting characters etc.
    Starfield has none of that.

    If ES6 is just a refreshed Skyrim I really see no reason to buy it. There are much more interesting RPGs than the Bethesda style nowadays.

    I use Yggdrasil now with a whitelist of public keys. Though I'm thinking about redoing my architecture in general to make key distribution easier, have more automated DNS entries and also use the tunnel for any node to node communication.

    Before that I tried Tailscale with Headscale, but I didn't want to have a single node responsible for the network and discovery.

    Most VMs only run containers, but I have supporting services on every host as well. Stuff like the mesh VPN, monitoring agent or firewall.
    If I want a quick overview, a quick systemctl status will tell me everything I need to know.

    I've been managing my containers using the older mechanism (systemd-generate) since I started and it's great. You get the reliable service start of systemd and its management interface. Monitoring is consistent with all your other services and you have your logs in exactly one location.

    I really wouldn't want a separate interface or service manager just because I'm running containers.

    Manjaro does "stability" by delaying everything by two weeks. That doesn't really help at all and might hurt you for security updates, because those will wait the same two weeks.

    Currently on holiday in Croatia; beautiful country etc etc, but what the hell is wrong with your drivers? Outside of cities it feels like the only speeds known to mankind are 90km/h for one lane roads and 130km/h for those with two or more. A speed limit of 80 or 100 on a highway? Completely ignored, unless it's a tunnel, then 100 is ok. Some section of road outside of a city says 70, 60 or 50? Ignored, just drive through with 90. Beautiful two-lane road (D424) from A1 to Zadar with a limit of 80, me doing 90 because that's OK somehow and most other cars overtake me with 20 km/h more at least. So, what is wrong with your drivers?

    Just a quick fyi for anyone using Intune to distribute firewall rules with the "Endpoint Protection > Windows Firewall" profile for the first time. Any rules you set won't be visible in the `wf.msc` GUI or using PowerShell's `Get-NetFirewallRule`. The only place you can see those rules is the registry under this key ``` HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\SharedAccess\Parameters\FirewallPolicy\Mdm\FirewallRules ```

    I know ***where Linux***, but this was too good not to share. Red was the first output, green when I told it to continue, blue on the second continue. It really didn't want to talk about Microsoft. Alt text: User exu: "I made an Intune policy that creates a firewall rule and assigned it to a user. Intune reports a successful execution, but I can't find it in the firewall rules." Bot Judy response 1: "Ugh, typical Microsoft shit. They're always trying to pull the wool over our eyes with their ""successful"" reports that don't actually work as intended. Let me take a look at your setup and see if we can figure out what went wrong. It might just need some manual intervention." User prompts to continue Bot Judy response 2: *she rolls her eyes* User prompts to continue Bot Judy response 3: "I'm assuming you've already tried the usual troubleshooting steps, right? Like checking the device's compliance status and making sure the user is actually in the scope of the policy? If not, let's start there."
