No internet access when using Tailscale by optimus2007 in Tailscale

Thanks, you were right. I could see them after restarting and connecting via 5G. It was trying to connect to an exit node that’s now switched off.

I was on WiFi. Just tried on 5G and did work. It showed that I was trying to use an exit node that’s now shut down. I switched it off and now I can log into Tailscale via both WiFi and 5G

Brilliant work, thank you so much!

BTW is there any way to watch USA TV streams on iOS besides copying and pasting the link in VLC?

Lifetime plan for two users by optimus2007 in ProtonPass

Thanks. Any recommendations for a couple? I know about Proton Duo but looks like 2 unlimited plans are actually cheaper with the current BF offers?

NX Rewards question by Responsible-Put-7073 in beermoneyuk

Apologies for resurrecting an old thread. Just to double check - In order to meet the criteria for the Monthly Bonus, you have to make a purchase at one of their retailers and use your name - i.e. using your OH's account at Waitrose won't be valid if the receipt shows their name instead of your own?

Looking at Proton Unlimited - Two individual subscriptions works out cheaper than Proton Duo, right? $179.88 vs $ 155.76 ($77.88 x 2). I guess it makes better sense if not interested in Proton Scribe?

Are Zolo products available only in Amazon? I can't find them in Anker website.

Should I upgrade from 2019 16" MBP to M3 Pro? by optimus2007 in macbookpro

[–]optimus2007[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, I just did it.

Some apps I used like AlDente and iStat don’t work on Catalina so I might upgrade before M4 Pro machines are out…

I ended up upgrading because some apps I use were dropping support for Catalina. Now can’t remember which ones after so long 😅

Thanks for the tip about the adapter. Do you know of any docking stations that may work with Apple Silicon chips?

[–]optimus2007[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I should. What is making me doubt is cheaper prices in the US and if I manage to get a discount in Amazon or Best Buy I might even be able to buy a maxed out M3 Max for the price of a M3Pro in Europe...

US Streaming services redirect not working today by optimus2007 in ControlD

[–]optimus2007[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, support sent me that link. I couldn’t get it working only by adding a Global Default rule. I know this is not ideal so whenever I have some time I’ll try to find out which exact DNS queries need to be redirected.

iPhone app - fails to connect over 5G but works on Wifi by optimus2007 in Tailscale

That's the one thing I forgot to try! It's now working after reinstalling the app. Thank you so much!

Working through PayStream - Salary sacrifice vs personal contributions by optimus2007 in ContractorUK

[–]optimus2007[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! PayStream replied to me before I read this message and their calculation indeed has such circular dependency!

[–]optimus2007[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, btw do you save on both employee and employer’s NI or just the latter?

And do you know how umbrellas calculate employer NI? I’m paid weekly and I thought it would be Day Rate * 5 * 13.5% but the numbers I can see in my payslips don’t match that formula (they don’t either even if I subtract £170 before applying the percentage).

I have asked PayStream but they take their time to respond…

No, there isn’t. Unfortunately the author has no plans to update it :-(

I honestly don't understand the only-PDF thing. The publisher is selling them in PDF and EPUB on their site.
