I understand your sentiment and frustration, and I'm also in so much pain from the political situation in the US. I think this congressperson should be commended for showing support for Ukraine in an incredibly overt and tangible way. I don't think it helps us to shun all republicans, though I can understand those who do. If people like him can use their power to lead people back to goodness, I think we'll more quickly go back to truly being great again

Because you stated this so kindly, I'll add that for this meme style, the irony is often part of it. So yes, that's a piece of the joke: https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/my-toxic-trait

This meme format has a lot of potential

I remember you were worried about your ISP messing things up for you, hence the VPN. I would recommend creating a "Virtual Machine" that does all of your downloading to whatever hard drive you're using. That VM can have proton installed. Then, on your regular computer (not within the VM), you can host Jellyfin with no VPN involved, making it accessible at 192.168.0.xx.

I think this hits your goals without needing to expose Jellyfin to the Internet. Plus it has minimal technical complexity. Your downloading traffic will be VPN protected, but Jellyfin will still be accessible to your local network.
edit: You can set up a password for Jellyfin, protecting it from your internal threats.

edit2: You can use letsencrypt to create a certificate that picky clients will accept. Buy a domain, any domain, and configure the "A record" to point to 192.168.0.xx (your Jellyfin IP). Then tell your client to go to whatever domain you get, like "luigiliterallydidnothingwrongplzfree.com", then the client will have to use the internet to ask DNS what the IP address is, but after that, it will just use your local network.

edit3: Since you just have the raspberry PI, instead of using a Virtual Machine, you could have 2 separate SD cards. One only has the downloader and VPN installed, the other only has Jellyfin installed (no VPN). Then swap as needed.

Great question! I had the same one and found the source: https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2019/12/03/precariousness-modern-young-adulthood-one-chart/

I find this hard to believe, because surely they've rushed past the point where it kinda horseshoes around and accidentally starts stabilizing, right?

"Jeanne Price said her daughter, who was a new employee, made attempts in July to secure time off, but either didn’t qualify or was told she’d have to wait. Two business days after she notified her supervisors that she planned to apply for disability leave, they fired her."

That's not true, and it's frustrating to see such confidence coming from someone who's really active in the community. I've pasted the whole thing, section 2, article 19 of the state constitution. I'll add section 20 for context, so you can be certain that "bill" does not somehow mean initiative.

SECTION 19. BILL TO CONTAIN ONE SUBJECT

No bill shall embrace more than one subject, and that shall be expressed in the title.

SECTION 20. ORIGIN AND AMENDMENT OF BILLS

Any bill may originate in either house of the legislature, and a bill passed by one house may be amended in the other.

I continue to be reaffirmed in my belief that this is one of the greatest constitutional protections in the modern world. "No bill shall embrace more than one subject, and that shall be expressed in the title" 10/10, no notes.

Do you have more information on this, or a phrase to Google? The idea of zero traffic, zero petty crime sounds incredibly impressive

I'd be mindful about being so prescriptive with solutions like that. What works well for you may not work well for someone else. But I do appreciate your input! Maybe try sharing it with more "I statements"?

It's a somewhat common thing with ADHD folks. As different parts of the brain start to fall asleep, there's a sweet spot where our brains are finally balanced. In other words, our limited executive function has adequate energy to manage just the fraction of the brain that's still awake.

I'm glad Europe is getting more united! Thanks for providing hope to my broken American heart

And what of his co-pilot?

I'd like to offer a reframe that's been helpful to me, if I may.

The inconsistency will haunt you throughout your entire life, but only if you let it. Learning how to embrace and understand my emotions (instead of controlling [or suppressing] them) has been incredibly worthwhile to me. Therapy is a good avenue for this, but I understand it's both expensive and not yet fully accepted by American culture. I also recommend the book The Tao of Fully Feeling, and here's an excerpt: https://www.pete-walker.com/taoFullyFeeling.htm

Is it possible for an extension to be present without it triggering Firefox's "installation" flow?

I agree that straight up using Tailscale would likely be easier. But to answer your question, you're looking to "push routes" because what you actually want to do is "route" but that's kinda hard to Google haha. This looks maybe promising: https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/wireguard-how-to-route-another-subnet-through-it.89744/

This approach largely works, with the caveat that it then requires you to always be on the tailnet. If someone wants to connect locally AND via tailnet using the same URL, they'll need to push/advertise routes (or do some other hacky thing)

Right now, I've only got the spoons to provide rough guidance, not details. In order to use non-tailnet IPs, you'll need to configure your tailnet host to "advertise routes/push routes". In more laymen terms, tailnet needs to say, "hey network client, I do know where 192.168.0.69 is! So I can route that request". By default, each tailnet host only advertises the other tailnet hosts. Anything else fails.

Also, I really appreciate how detailed your question is!
