Comparison Chart

With all the hype around this new wave of upcoming keyboard phones, I am very excited. That being said, it was also a lot of info and trying to keep everything in my head straight started to become a challenge. Anyways, I ended up making this chart and thought I'd share it with you all.

If I missed any relevant information, let me know and I'll add rows and post in the comment section.

Home Server as an Exit Node + VPN protection.

Hey everyone. I'm new to home server life so forgive me of any ignorant questions. So I'm running Zima OS on a mini PC that's directly connected to my router. I'm using this server for cloud storage and running a music service through Plex. Plex has been having issues recently where I can access everything on my local network but outside of my home, it won't work because of issues on Plex's end.

My goal is to use Tailscale to make accessing my Plex, using the Plexamp app on my phone, more reliable. This seems pretty straightforward but I also am using Nord VPN on my phone and have Nord running directly on my router. I know that they conflict and only one (Tailscale and Nord VPN) can be running at a time on my phone.

This leads me to my question. If I set up Tailscale on my phone and home server, and set the server as an Exit Node, will all my traffic on my phone be encrypted and private outside of my home? In my mind this works but I'm new to all of this. Thanks for the help and please let me know if more information is needed.

Well, technically it was a few days ago. Anyways, I started playing guitar about 20 years ago and my parents bought me an Esteban Legacy acoustic guitar. It looked great but the playability was terrible. I actually remember a local shop saying it wasn't worth putting money in to make it play better lol. I wanted to play more rock and punk music anyways so I quickly got an electric guitar and only played that Esteban when needed.

Fast-forward and I've been playing guitar a lot more, especially acoustic and that Esteban wasn't cutting it. After doing a lot of shopping, trying different body styles, brands, woods, I finally settled on this. An Eastman E2D-DLX which has a solid cedar top with solid sapele back and sides. I love the burst finish and playability and sound are phenomenal.

I always love when companies are making great products that punch above their weight class and this is exactly that. Not a classic household name like Gibson, Taylor, or Martin but it's a damn good guitar which is all that matters. If I can hold onto that Esteban for nearly 20 years, I should be able to hold onto this for the rest of my lifetime.
