Well thats just a normal reverse proxy then. In my setup I use Caddy to send traffic through the NetBird managed wireguard tunnel to my home machine that runs Jellyfin but for any outside observer it look like it's my VPS that is serving Jellyfin.

You want to group by IP in grafana and not using http traffic? Why not group on data or metadata in what is being sent which is the common approach?

If you can fool the Internet that traffic coming from the VPS has the source IP of your home machine what stops you from assuming another IP to bypass an IP whitelist?

Also if you expect return communication, that would go to your VPS which has faked the IP of your home machine. That technique would be very powerful to create man in the middle attacks, i.e. intercepting traffic intended for someone else and manipulating it without leaving a trace.

IP, by virtue of how the protocol works, needs to be a unique identifier for a machine. There are techniques, like CGNAT, that allows multiple machines to share an IP, but really it works (in simplified terms) like a proxy and thus breaks the direct connection and limits you to specific ports. It's also added on top of the IP protocol and requires specific things and either way it's the endpoint, in your case the VPS, which will be the presenting IP.

Preserve the source IP you say, why?

The thing is that if you could (without circumventing the standards) do so then that implies that IP isn't actually a unique identifier, which is needs to be. It would also mean circumventing whitelists / blacklists would be trivial (it's not hard by any means but has some specific requirements).

The correct way to do this, even if there might be some hack you could do to get the actual source IP through, is to put the source in a 'X-Forwarded-For' header.

As for ready solutions I use NetBird which has open source clients for Windows, Linux and Android that I use without issues and it's perfectly self-hostable and easy to integrate with your own IDP.

Yeah, texture fidelity is one metric but for textures really how good or bad they are depend much more on the skill and attention to detail behind making it more so than raw numbers. The models themselves is really the only part where the increased polycount actually shines through and makes it competitive because it is so important to make things like hands, hair and clothing look "right'. But the aesthetics of SS is just so bland and flat that it ends up looking like an old tech demo.

Sure, but I take great offense at the hyperbole in the headline and core of the article. I hate when media takes pity on the rich kid with problems and act like they're the world's biggest. When the poor kid has it worse but no one gives a shit.

Being cynical and very utilitarian that doesn't have to be a bad thing for the economy. They had a "surplus" in terms of high unemployment for uneducated men which this war has "fixed" and that means lessening the burden on government finances.

Which country do you think is the most depressing? As its defined in the article, i.e. the nation causing the most depression? My bet is every single nation above Korea is vastly more depressing and people only care about and think Korea is exceptional because it is much closer to our western Nations.

Bingo, or you would, I'm a bit more sensitive so I get slightly worse symptoms. But nothing dramatic.

Yeah 50% loss isn't servere at all for gut biome loss. If you've ever been on antibiotics you've likely experienced that or worse.
