My system keeps booting into an install instead of the encrypted disk. [FIXED]
My system keeps booting into the live image of Pop!_OS 22.04 rather than my encrypted partition. I ran boot-repair-disk but the system keeps going to the install image. I verified that the bios is pointing to the correct disk at boot and I verified that my data is still in the encrypted partition....

Trying to figure out why my Optiplex is slow
First time self-hoster here. I recently bought Dell optiplex 5060 Micro on ebay (6 Core i5-8500T 2.1-3.5GHz 16GB DDR4 512GB M.2 SSD).

[Solved with Gluetun] Tailscale ExitNode with VPN
I would really really really like to have one device on my tailnet as the exitnode for all other devices on the tailnet. However, most VPNs make this really difficult. Is there any way to do this?

Why do trees stems grow new "parts" inside and not outside i.e. why is the oldest part of the stem the innermost "ring" and not the outermost?
Wouldn’t grow something from the inside require a very strong force to “move” the already present one? Instead growing from the last “layer” towards the outside would require a lot less force, but perhaps a lot more matter....

I’m new to Windows deployments, and I need some help.
