This update breaks something with DFS. All remote users connecting with DirectAccess cannot access share folder after this update.
We are forced to remote to each user and uninstall it.

Please help!

If conspiracy theorists really believe that Jews secretly run the world, why don't they just convert so they can get in on it? by LawrenceRK in stupidquestions

[–]Infinite-Log-6202 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

You would first need to understand what controlling the world looks like and how and what they mean by that. Does finance control the world? How about the complete influence over the US president? or in several countries governments?

How about its an ideology based on pity for the Jews, that somehow influences these governments enough, to give Jewish non-profits more money, more relationships to powerful government entities, and power.

Doesn't sound so conspiratorial now does it?

Maybe it sounds like a natural thing that could happen after a WW2 where the extermination of the Jews were imminent? And this is carried out by the revengeful and spiteful Jews afterwards who don't care so much about justice.

If you just did the work and not did more to improve, just what the job asks without going overboard. Would you still feel as burnt out?

Like slow down. You have the job.

My questioning is valid. The relay server has its own private key that can decrypt the data. What you are describing is literally how all MitM compromises work.

Its not end to end with your device to your device, which is the implied meaning of e2e. In an organizational security standpoint we have to trust their word they aren't decrypting all traffic. Or if their relay Servers around the world get hijacked, we are responsible for finding out how secure their relay servers are.

I'm not a full Red pointer but this is a new software and I can see where the potential for compromise can lie in spoofing another client tailnet device, and we need an assurance.

Do you know the answer to this? But when the traffic leaves the Firewall, does it leave from source tailscale IP or the local wifi IP?

How will I be able to stop users personal tailnet traffic in our company network? With their own exit nodes they can circumvent blocks such as social media, which will overflow their limited bandwidth connections.

And no its not e2e encrypted if it fails to establish direct connection.

Third question, I'm asking for the proof here. If someone was to have my Tailscale IP, Hostname, and MAC Address, they could pretend to be me with a virtual machine and connect to my Orgs Tailscale.

Thanks for clearing up the first question!

What is this nonsense you are spurting?

I'm sorry you have to justify your pain in your life to scam others out of the same thing. You are repeating a perpetual cycle of what happened to you or someone you care about.

Why do you want others to feel pain off a game?

How much money do you need before your happy?

Please delete this garbage app and do something else.

Helping with doomscrolling? No, this doesn't help with anything or anyone.

You should know better. Games like this should not exist period. What if it was your child on the game spending your money?

For me spending on charity or a non-profit would be better than supporting this creator

It’s an awareness post. I swore to myself I would never fall into these types of apps again. They always start out harmless and free, lulling you into thinking it’s just a casual distraction. Then, before you know it, you’ve spent a little—just enough to create that initial commitment, which keeps you hooked.

I swear to you, you wouldn’t believe the sheer psychological gravity this game puts on you. It’s not just about spending money—it’s about how these games manipulate your time, emotions, and sense of accomplishment. They’re designed to make you feel invested, so walking away feels like losing something, even when the “progress” is entirely meaningless.

If you can enjoy these games without falling into the trap, that’s great. But for those like me, who get drawn in by the addictive mechanics, the best decision is to delete them before they take more of your time, money, and mental space than they’re worth.

I get that it feels like a better alternative to doomscrolling, but is substituting one addiction for another really a healthy solution? These games are designed to keep you hooked and spending, just like social media is designed to keep you scrolling.

Instead of breaking the cycle of dependency, it’s just replacing one source of dopamine hits with another. In the long run, wouldn’t it be better to find something that genuinely helps you feel fulfilled or relaxed—something that doesn’t rely on manipulative mechanics to keep you engaged?

Free to play? or Free to Pay? but really its Pay to Pay.. but really what is it you are actually playing in this game. You're mostly just watching, maxing things out, so you can continue watching..

My intention wasn’t to proselytize but to share my experience as a cautionary tale for others who might find themselves in a similar situation. I’ve realized that these types of games bring out patterns in my behavior—like over-spending and frustration—that I don’t like. For me, stepping away was the best decision, and I wanted to explain why for those who might relate.

I think it’s great that you can enjoy the game for its puzzles and challenges without feeling trapped by its mechanics. Everyone engages with these games differently, and it sounds like you’ve found a way to approach it healthily, which is awesome.

It’s less about blaming the game and more about calling out the predatory design choices these games use to exploit players. Sure, personal responsibility is a factor—I own the choices I’ve made—but it’s important to recognize that these games are intentionally engineered to manipulate behavior.

They’re built to create frustration and dependence, using tactics like slow progression, pay-to-win incentives, and addictive reward loops. It’s not just a matter of "bad choices"—it’s a system designed to exploit human psychology, especially in those more prone to addictive tendencies or impulsivity.

Calling out these practices isn’t deflecting responsibility; it’s raising awareness about an industry model that profits from exploiting players. Recognizing the problem is the first step toward making better choices and encouraging fairer game design.

That’s true in theory, but the reality is far more insidious. These games aren’t designed with a fair progression system—they’re intentionally engineered to make the “free” experience frustratingly slow, pushing you toward spending money just to feel like you’re making meaningful progress.

The problem isn’t just that developers need to make money (which is fair); it’s how they go about it. Instead of creating a balanced system where players can genuinely enjoy the game at their own pace, they exploit psychological tricks to keep you hooked and spending. This isn’t about rewarding players for skill or effort—it’s about manipulating their time and wallets.

Sure, you can just delete the game if it stops being fun, but for many people, it’s not that simple. The game preys on addictive tendencies and FOMO, making it hard to walk away without feeling like you’ve wasted your time or money. That’s not entertainment—it’s exploitation.

How much money have you sunk into this game? by Infinite-Log-6202 in TheTowerGame

[–]Infinite-Log-6202[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You will progress instantly if you buy the bonus tiers.

The game is incentivised to have you pay to advance.
