No. For me.

All ads from the various companies that have hired Matthew McConaughey to teach me the art of zen or something.

Next you're going to tell me I can't sandbag on purpose in Spades to trick the other team into reneging.

Don't forget Reverse on a +2 or +4 so the person who played it has to pull it.

Imagine your brain triggering a phantom itch but you having no limbs to scratch with.

It's not "exactly like" physical media. The license portion is a similar concept. But the difference is that the variables that determine whether I can keep watching the content whenever I want, in perpetuity, lie solely with me as the person who physically possesses the media. The corporation from which I purchased the license can't unilaterally decide to revoke my access to the content.

I watched the first few minutes of this a*nd felt it was just the movie but animated and with worse music. Does it get any better or add anything that's not already in the movie?

I hear this guy brought up from time to time and, while I applaud his ability to do what he did, I don't think there should be an expectation that marginalized groups have to befriend their oppressors in order to change things for the better.

They may not all be pedos, but a lot more are assholes who hate homosexuals and trans persons, or assholes who want to deny women their reproductive rights, or assholes who keep voting for far-right extremists. Just because a lot of Christians are "nice people" doesn't mean that their ideology causes any less harm.

 

Original post here. First, thanks to everyone who responded. Thought I'd write up an update on my progress.

I took the advice to keep the NAS dedicated to storage and bought a Beelink mini computer (2Ghz Quad core Intel Celeron; 250GB; 4GB RAM) for the server and installed Linux Mint. I decided that the perceived complexity of Docker and Portainer were more than I wanted to tackle right now and that the benefits wouldn't be worth the effort, so I'm installing directly to the OS.

So far I have Jellyfin and Audiobookshelf up and running. Most of the setup is straightforward. I've spent the most time so far learning to permanently mount the NAS and set the necessary permissions. Took a bit of online research to figure this out. Second most time was setting up NordVPN with Meshnet for remote server access.

Next step is the Servarr suite. I'm thinking that's going to be a bit more of a challenge.

 

I'm a novice Linux user. Comfortable with command line but far from a whiz. Have to duckduckgo a lot of stuff to figure out what I'm doing.

I just bought a WD EX2 Ultra. The Plex app is built in, but it looks like the other stuff I want to do will require Docker containers. Maybe I just need to devote more time to learning containers but, at first look, it all seems quite daunting.

Here's what I want to set up. Jellyfin for music, tv & movies. Audiobookshelf for podcasts. The Servarr suite for library collection and management. VPN for security and privacy.

Am I swinging too big for my skill level, or does this seem doable? Any suggestions on how to proceed? Any and all feedback is welcome!
