In my area, the majority of McDonald's customers use the drive thru, and the dining room isn't very busy. So for the price of a coffee I can get a couple hours of work done from a table near a power outlet and wifi.

My only complaint is their firewall blocks the tailscale control plane.

Of all the places I could spend some time to work, a greasy, run-down, dirt-cheap fast food "restaurant" really is the last option… I’d pay more voluntarily to not spend a second there longer than necessary.

What about a well maintained, bright and cheerful fast food "restaurant" with really fast wifi?

I wonder if they monitor your internet traffic.

Traffic monitoring for a fast food chain is dubious at best even in the unencrypted days, but basically useless since the advent of HTTPS and TLS everywhere.

Brother, did you give your brain to AI already? There exists technology

If you have a suggestion, you should give it.

If you initiate the connection on your cell phone hotspot and then connect to WiFi, it’ll continue working.

I connect to work over a traditional VPN. Is there some way for me to send that tunnel through Tailscale? I want to do that because our VPN whitelists IPs.
