MysticOracle··on Gemma 4 on iPhone
Crashes for me on a couple of different iDevices (2 generations behind) after only a few 2-3 chats. Probably not enough RAM.

MysticOracle··on I traced my traffic through a home Tailscale exit node
Tailscale tangential use case! :)

I was looking for remote access software to help family with their PC and came across RustDesk(https://rustdesk.com/) but it needs a server. Found out it can work without a server if you have Tailscale installed. No fees for any of this and works on many platforms.

It uses a heavily obfuscated JavaScript file written with NodeJS that remains completely undetectable by signature-based defenses. And this one isn’t just targeting Mac users either; Windows and Linux environments are also at risk.
