One the primary reasons I have a vespa is that in my big city you are allowed to park them for free on the sidewalk as long as you are not blocking the main flow of traffic. Never having to worry about parking gets me out and about when I never would have due to the headache before. It is so convenient and the gas mileage is nuts.

Very few Americans commenting here have to toil away for 12 hours to make ends meet.

So no snow and not much rain?

These colors choices have a habit of seeping into different industries and affecting our culture. There are valid reasons that might want to share their opinions on these things here on HN.

I use this via Home Assistant add on to skip ads on my apple tvs. Not as good as smarttube on nvidia shield, but best you can do on tvOS.

You can self-host Invidious and connect to it with yattee. (The UI is… not the best, but it’s generally functional, and better than ads.)

There's also an app called Clipious on F-Droid that can connect to an Invidious instance.

I don't use it much since I started using the ReVanced patched YouTube app, but it used to work well enough for casual usage.

Interesting could you share how to do this?

https://github.com/dmunozv04/iSponsorBlockTV should get you started. In HA, it will available in the Settings > Add-ons / Add-on store. If you don't have home assistant, you can always run it on an rpi or in docker on a system on your network.

sideload SmartTube. I use it along with youtube premium to get a stellar experience.

Tailscale routes my mobile device dns through my pile back at the home. I have nginx setup with easy to remember domains (photos.my domain.com) that work when i’m away as well without exposing anything to the open internet.

Why not call it VPN if that's what it is? In your case, it sounds like configuring your "pile" (is that a DNS server, short for pihole maybe?) on your phone would do the same thing, but if the goal is to not expose anything to the open internet, a VPN would be the thing that does that

your internet traffic isn’t routed through it like a traditional vpn.

My understanding is that grok api is way different than the grok x bot. Which of course does Grok as a business any favors. Personally, I do not engage with either.

you gotta be quite a crazy person to use grok :)

Grok is good for up-to-the-minute information, and for requests that other chat services refuse to entertain, like requests for instructions on how to physically disable the cellular modem in your car.

I sat in my kid's extracurricular a couple months ago and had an FBI agent tell me that Grok was the most trustworthy based on "studies," so that's what she had for her office.

Did she get that info from Grok?

Grok has Elon as better athelete than LeBron so I would agree with FBI Agent. can’t get that kind of insight anywhere else :)

Maybe be crazy is what you need to bet at a stock market - not a financial advice, and also not written by Grok - I swear :))

I just watched this for the first time last week and found it rather delightful.
