I bought a Mac mini m4 before openclaw to use as a music production machine, when it turned out not to work out I tried setting up openclaw on it after hearing all the noise, but that turned out not to work out either.
I’ve found a much better use for it now. I use it as a Tailscale + ssh + tmux + Claude code machine, which gives me an always on Claude code environment with persistent sessions. I ssh from my phone using termius and from my laptop through ssh, and I can even access my projects through Tailscale with hot reloading for the most part, no deploy needed. It’s really good and my mini isn’t idle at all.
That sounds like a complete waste tbh lol. Your mac mini m4 is now doing something any computer with 16GB of RAM can do
You're not wrong, but at least it's not idle. And I can use it for something else if the need arises.
I just run claude code on my phone, in termux
Claude has Dispatch now, which should replace the tmux + CLI for you
That's really not remotely the same thing
Yea I have to try it and see. When Claude released Remote Control I hoped on right away and it was crap, it kept disconnecting. Tailscale + SSH was much better.
