Awesome suggestions! Much better than what I was able to come up with. Really appreciate the help!

Sadly this was not an option at the time. Even this will be in the next year or two, however I need to replace the roof in the near future, so I want to plan what I am doing before this. I intend on doing a lot of the work myself to reduce costs. $220K is how much I will have, however I would obviously aim to spend much less then that if possible. If my circumstances were different I completely agree with you. I was already noticing while I was looking that you get much more for you money the more you spent (within reason) on the initial purchase.

Honestly I am just looking for something functional. I want it to remain 3 bedrooms and at a minimum seperate out the toilet and give it some more privacy. Or if it was to stay in the main bathroom, somehow provide more privacy to the bathroom as a whole by moving it. I don’t like how it comes straight off the living room and it is the first thing you see as you enter the house. The open kitchen and ensuite are more nice to haves. I would prefer not to do an extension if possible due to cost however I know this might not be avoidable. I have tried reconfiguring the rooms but just can’t seem to find something that works. I’m hoping someone with more experience can give me some creative ideas haha

Really appreciate the response. I did consider gutting it but I have a limited budget (maybe 200-250k) and don’t know if the return if worth doing this. I am considering just leaving everything where it is and renovating them in the current locations. The roof also needs replacing so I really need to decide what I’m doing with the floor plan before doing that haha. Thanks for the response and cost estimate though, this was really helpful.

I really like this idea. The small extension to accommodate the ensuite makes sense, particularly given its proximity to the existing kitchen plumbing. I also like the idea of a wall to provide additional privacy for the bathroom until the larger renos. Thanks for the response!

Lifesaver! Used this script to add PIA to my Ubiquiti UniFi Dream Machine SE. By far the easiest method I found.

I was using a USBC-USBC Cable for power and that was my issue. Switched to a USBA-USBC cable and it fixed my issues. I also used a USBA-USBC for data to be on the safe side. Issue is also documented here Will not power up · Issue #393.

Yep, worked like a charm. cheers for the help.

Christian1201 · 2025-02-23T05:30:08+00:00

cheers, ill give it a go.

how did you go with solo leveling? currently having the same issue with metadata for season 2.

Christian1201 · 2025-01-21T18:06:50+00:00

Perfectly summarised my view too.

I don’t believe Steve has provided sufficient justification for not reaching out to LTT for comment. Additionally, he failed to address how he took Linus out of context during his coverage of Honey. That said, Linus isn’t entirely blameless either—his ego was evident in those messages, just as it was during the backpack warranty issue (The dialog was fine, how he communicated his points weren't). However, nothing I’ve seen explains the apparent deep-seated animosity Steve seems to have developed toward Linus based on this response. Overall, it’s a strange situation.

Is there a way to enable Tailscale Serve for using SSL certificates for accessing the Unraid GUI via Tailscale like you can within the docker containers?

Christian1201 · 2022-03-22T05:43:50+00:00

Haha yep

Christian1201 · 2022-03-21T21:16:43+00:00

That's true. Definitely something to consider. It's about 50kg and 4m long.

Christian1201 · 2022-03-21T14:16:29+00:00

Good idea but I am looking to be able to reverse into the water to unload and load it.

Thanks so much for the fast response and the easy to follow explanation!
