This is my kind of crazy:

"In today's video we explore sharing an NVIDIA GPU from Windows 11, running a containerized workload with docker for windows, over #Tailscale to connect Immich - a self-hosted photo library - to hardware accelerate machine learning tasks."

And then told the bouncer to turn them away at the door for good measure.
