When you put your server’s tailscale IP in the dns, anything that looks up that dns gets the tailscale IP. You only need to connect the devices you want to have connect to the server to the same tailscale network, and your system will handle the routing.
On your DNS provider, make an A record with your IP address, AAAA record with your IPv6 address. If these addresses change often, either setup a dyndns (your DNS provider needs to support this) or pay for a Static IP from your ISP. Firewall the hell out of your network, have a default deny (drop) new inbound rule, and only open ports for your service. Use an nginx reverse proxy if possible to keep direct connections out of your service, and use containers (docker?) for your service(s). Don’t forget to setup certbot and fail2ban. You need certbot to auto update your certs, and you need fail2ban to keep the automated login hacker bots from getting in.
That’s the minimum. You can do more with ip region blocking and such, as well as more advanced firewalling and isolation. Also possible to use Tailscale and point the DNS A record to the Tailscale IP, which will eliminate exposing your public IP to the internet.
English is my first language and I’m not sure what they’re asking for either. So a literal screw on top of the cup sounds right.
HomeAssistant to the rescue?
Now there’s a sight I have not seen in a long time… rage comics

Websites ending in .onion are on the Tor network. You need to be connected to and using Tor (The Onion Router, see the other comments) to be able to connect them.
In short, Tor connects you to the internet by splitting bits of your connection across all the other Tor users. This makes it much harder to trace your activity if you are browsing anonymously (use the Tor Browser in its default configuration and window size, DO NOT SIGN INTO ANYTHING).
AI writes the average. This person speaks the average.
Privacy =/= Security. Windows XP might have good privacy (I would argue Windows 2000 is better for that, as it doesn’t have Product Activation), but security is nonexistant in 2025 in either case. For malware, it’s free real estate.
Because these people don’t have to run Quickbooks
My recommendation is the G305. Yes, a gaming mouse. But they’re both cheap and have an insanely good polling rate, so the mouse is smooooooth. Also, no rubberized nonsense to degrade.
Graphene isn’t dead. They just have slowed down a bit. They’ve already released their first Alpha for 16
I had one that had rubberized sides that slowly did that over the years. After a decade? of daily use it finally started giving up. Most non-logi non-OEM mice I’ve used lasted months at best.
No, unfortunately. Logitech mice are the best performing in quality, battery life, and longevity at their price range. I’ve tried many other mice in the budget range, and they all fail quickly, eat batteries, or perform poorly in comparison.
VoLTE isn’t yet supported in Linux because no one has yet completed writing an open source implementation. Unfortunately, phone manufacturers, chip manufacturers, and cell carriers all hold these cards very close to their chests, so drivers have to be written from scratch by reverse engineering the protocols, which are encrypted on top of being completely nebulous. Support is coming, eventually, but it takes an extraordinary amount of time and effort to do this, which nobody has time to do.
Ah ha ha, hahaha, ha ha, ha ha ha, ha!
Someone didn’t proofread.
