       I’m a big fan of the “fund a bunch of smaller attempts”. Knowing when to favour that vs fund the larger impactful thing is hard.

       I needed to turn on bridged networking so that the VM could have its own IP address. And `curl` wasn’t installed, but after that the Coolify install just worked.
