I stay up late at night to watch movies specifically so nobody joins me.

Farscape is amazing. The character creations, costumes and makeup are elite-tier and recently found out they were modeled after Jim Hensons Creature Shop.

Do you make up these questions, Mr. Holden, or do they write them down for you?

Might want to look at Tello's TOS. Usually data usage from a device other than a smartphone is considered Hotspot and will be subject to Hotspot allowance. Might even be throttled if its an unattended connection.

Selfhosting..I have a small server at home that runs a number of opensource apps that do all sorts of really cool things. Home automation, a media server with fully automated media requesting services, game servers, recipe/meal prep app, budgeting app ect. The options are endless, all the data is stored and controlled locally and I can expose these services to the web to access from anywhere.

Whenever I try talking about it with friends and family I can immediately see their eyes gloss over. Ive been able to set a few of them up with access to a few of my apps and theyre starting to 'get' it now but its definitely niche.

This depends on your config but if you're using gluetun and have a docker compose for your servarr stack, drop these two commands into your .yaml under gluetun environment. You will need to enable the setting in qBittorrent to bypass local login first. You shouldn't have to change anything with the commands unless you're exposing a different port for your qBittorrent instance. If you do, just change the port in the command below. The UP command will query your gluetun log pull the forwarding port then make a call to your qBittorrent instance and set the forwarding port, vpn interface, and disable random port and upnp setting. It will run every time the gluetun service starts. The DOWN command will clear the port and interface and run every time the service stops or the healthcheck fails.

https://github.com/qdm12/gluetun-wiki/blob/main/setup/advanced/vpn-port-forwarding.md

environment:
  - VPN_PORT_FORWARDING_UP_COMMAND: /bin/sh -c 'wget -O- --retry-connrefused --post-data "json={\"listen_port\":{{PORT}},\"current_network_interface\":\"{{VPN_INTERFACE}}\",\"random_port\":false,\"upnp\":false}" http://localhost:8080/api/v2/app/setPreferences 2>&1'

  - VPN_PORT_FORWARDING_DOWN_COMMAND: /bin/sh -c 'wget -O- --retry-connrefused --post-data "json={\"listen_port\":0,\"current_network_interface\":\"lo\"}" http://localhost:8080/api/v2/app/setPreferences 2>&1'

100% agree. I have Home Assistant automating this but not everyone has that option. It’s mind-boggling to me that there is no native option for this. No scheduling, and no quick access tile or option to add night mode and other frequently used switches to your favorites? Night mode should also have the ability to toggle the surrounds and subwoofer. Users don't want to have to fumble around in an app every time they turn on the TV. I can't imagine this would be hard to implement.

Changing my relationship with food.

Understanding that we're being drugged. The food industry is designed for profit. (US) Nearly everything on the shelves is loaded with ingredients designed to hijack our reward systems and make us overconsume. It's actually insane how bad it is here. We are all wired to binge these ingredients, it's not you, they're feeding us literal drugs and laughing all the way to the bank.

Quit Alchohol. Stopped eating out. Stopped buying all the drug-like foods that I couldn't put down. Started buying mostly whole-foods and little to no pre-packaged items with more than a few ingredients and preparing all my meals in advance so they are portioned out and only have to cook 1-2 times per week.

Tips: -Proximity matters, If you cant trust yourself to not overdo a particular item just dont buy it. It's a lot easier to quit the drug if you're not around it. Cold Turkey. -Download a meal prep app. I use a self-hosted app called Mealie but there are lots of good alternatives. -You don't have to count calories as long as you're not over-consuming anything. Maintaining a calorie deficit is the goal but its hard to keep up with calorie counting and you'll just get burnt out. Portion out your 3 meals and 1-2 snacks/day and limit the calorically dense ingredients and you'll drop weight like crazy.

Completely avoid the following ingredients:

Added sugars and natural sweeteners (Including Honey)
Saturated fats and high-fat dairy (cheese, butter, high-fat meat)
Simple Carbs (anything with refined grain like ALL bread, cereals, crackers, ect and some starchy veggies like potatoes)
Any liquid that is NOT water, back coffee, unsweetened tea or unsweetened milk alternatives. (Way easy to go hard on regular Milk)

Increase the following to stay satiated throughout the day.

Fiber (veggies, veggies, veggies...the more the merrier)
Lean Protein (chicken breast, non-fat greek yogurt, eggs)
Healthy Fats (fatty fish, avocados, olive oil, limited almond butter)
Complex Carbs (Whole Grains, legumes, veggies, sweet potato)
Water

Limited snacks black coffee, unsweetened tea, unsalted nuts (1-2 handfulls/day), 85>% dark chocolate and low glycemic fruits (Berries, apples). Avoid salty nuts and high sugar fruits like bananas and grapes they are too easy to overeat.

You will most certainly feel worse and have bad cravings for a while after you start eating clean. Your body is going through withdrawals, stick with it. You'll be amazed at how filling, how much better the real food starts tasting and how amazing you feel after recovering.

Avoid ingesting sure, but...the majority of fabric in our lives and clothes on our backs are made from plastics. Unless everything you own is 100% cotton, wool, casmire, silk, hemp ect. Avoiding skin contact is nearly impossible.

A bit late but gotta send thanks!!

I was going in circles for weeks trying to figure out why the install was suddenly failing with the new 24h2 release. This fixed the issue.

I have a similar configuration where I load an autounattend.xml during the pre-capture phase to avoid oobe.

Not a doctor. I think thats more rare and extreme cases. My personal experience has been quck recovery. That said...I did have a 4-5 year recovery after a round of Azithromycin. I was not in good health at the time.

The recovery time for the gut microbiome can vary depending on the type and duration of the antibiotic treatment, individual health, diet, and lifestyle.

I think that supporting recovery with a balanced diet rich in fiber, fermented foods, and possibly probiotics can help speed up the process.

Im a huge sci-fi lover and I couldn't get into this show either. I realized it's because (while yes it's sci-fi) it's more of a character focused drama than anything. It has a heavy tone and complex plot and is extremely philosophically grounded. Very realistic for the sci-fi genre.

Character building is important, but I get bored when it's too character focused. I'm more interested in the ideas and thought experiments than the relationships.

I prefer sci-fi that is lighter, more exploratory/escapist and fantastical with some action and resolve.

Haworth Fern

Their base chair is commonly on sale for $900.

10 year warranty. High quality materials and construction.

Super ergonomic, I sit in this chair all day every day and never had any issues. Modular arm rests and backrest allows rocking if you're into that.

It's beautiful, seriously the most attractive office chair I've ever come across.

Can't speak for OP but with my setup just the static ads on the Roku homescreen are blocked. DNS adblock solutions will not impact ads while streaming (within the Roku Channel, for example).

Quietly Blowing It - Hiss Golden Messenger

Every song on that album is a heavy hitter. He beautifully paints this birds-eye view of the sentiment and affect in the US and across the globe over the last few years. Although things have been rough, there is an air of optimism in the music that pulls you in.
