I can also gleek but it's nowhere near what my grade 11 English teacher could do. I don't know how it came up in class, but, in front of the class, she turned sideways and made the biggest arc I'd ever seen: maybe 6 feet long

I used it accidentally. Now my work PC and my personal laptop have a mishmash of unwanted bookmarks on each

Unlimited SMS is on most cell phone plans nowadays, at least in Canada.

On a slightly different tack: I run a website, and I choose not to implement SMS for notifications - only email. Email is free. Adding SMS, even at $0.007 per message, could add up to big bucks.

Why does it need to read and write to my contacts?

We bought an HP laser printer a few years ago.. it drives me crazy in that when it goes to sleep mode, it never recovers, meaning you have to power cycle it to get it to respond again. Once it's power cycled, it's .. fine, although I curse it anyway since it's 2024 and how can they still make printers that still do this shit.

Anyway.

In Windows, on my wife's and kids' Windows PCs, it works most of the time but was a huge pain to set up with the stupid apps.

On Android, it works most of the time after setting up stupid apps.

On my Linux desktops, it worked perfectly out of the box on both of them. I couldn't believe it. One desktop is Manjaro and the other is Mint

Have you tried Remmina? I use it almost every day for my work machine. Works pretty well.

I think I found it by opening the software center and typing in rdp

Canadian here.

I remember watching quite a few episodes of some reno show where the homeowner had to choose between two designs for the garden, and both choices usually ended up putting gravel down, which horrified us when we saw it.

When I think of gravel in the back yard (garden), it's the base layer for the paving stones that go on top of it

For me, it means I could never walk barefoot without it sticking to my feet in addition to it being uncomfortable to walk on.

It's not clear to me what you're trying to do in terms of network access.

So your "main Windows machine" is inside your local network, and you are accessing it remotely via RDP from outside your home, which you then use to control a Proxmox server? You didn't have an open RDP port open to the internet before, right? What is your setup?

Why do Twingate and dynamic dns not work? What kinds of errors are you encountering? You could also try Tailscale.
