So you all cook the bacon correctly over there? God bless.

I don't know what this is and I'll do my best to avoid it.

It may be a perfect movie. Robin Wright's acting is a little rigid but otherwise it's a very straightforward sci-fi noir.

That works a couple times, but then the side seams of the zipper part will start to tear.

Just to emphasize the importance of low expense ratios: you don't just lose the money you pay to the fund manager. Over time you also lose what that money could have made if it had stayed invested. Even a modest retirement fund can have an opportunity cost of $50k by the time you retire. As another commenter said, Vanguard tends to have the lowest fees.

What's this now?

Slay the Spire is really nice for limited mobility. Turn based, point and click based. I like to play with one hand while I'm eating with the other.

Nearly every sentence of this is wrong. Suffering is a part of life, but that doesn't mean it's the only part, and it doesn't mean the "logical" solution is to die. Get real.

Is there a sharpener you recommend? Drill Doctor?

I've had the basic one (not the slim - parts of the band on the slim are bare elastic and it's not comfortable) for years and I love it. I'm a side sleeper and I don't have much trouble with the mask getting pushed off, but I do dream about getting the pro version.

Do you mean that people have had more difficulty keeping track of time and timelines since the pandemic? I've certainly had lots of conversations where someone said, "That was 2 years ago already? What is time anymore?" They're not talking about getting older, but that the pandemic created this blank space where we didn't have our usual traditions or seasonal events. If there isn't a term for this specific phenomenon, we could make one. Pandemic time elasticity?

 

Hey all, I'm very new to self-hosting and have no background in anything computer-related. I'll explain in as much detail as I can. I'm running Plex on a Synology DS220+. I'm using the Plex app, i.e. not using Docker (see note below).

The issue: I can watch Plex on my local network in 4K, but outside my local network it barely makes it to 720p. I thought it was an issue with my upload speed, but I got gigabit last week and it hasn't fixed the issue. I have remote access enabled in Plex through a manually-specified port. The issue persists with my own account and any friends who have access to my library.

I appreciate any advice, links or questions you can offer!

NOTE: I understand the benefits of Docker and I promise to transition in the future. I spent many hours learning and troubleshooting, and it was even functional at times, but eventually I needed something that just worked.

EDIT: You all have been so helpful and supportive. Thanks for meeting me where I'm at and sharing some potential issues.

EDIT2: I found the culprit by accident. I had UPnP enabled on my router. I turned it off and my local speeds increased significantly, and my Plex library is available remotely. I don't know how or why UPnP is related, but that's what the solution was for me. Thanks again for all your input and support.
