I like that you can get root access to the VM your instance runs in, connect it to your tailnet, automate connection approvals, and operate a torrent seedbox on Meta’s infra.

Have you figured out a reliable way to persist stuff? Like a launch script or similar that doesn’t reset when the VM shuts down and can be used to restore tailscale

bashrc, bash profile, cron, systemd, etc all get wiped clean the moment the VM resets

Totally theoretical of course

perhaps its for plausible deniability next time they torrent training data /s
