Appreciate it! I'll play around with the configuration and see what works. Initially I had a really fun (/s) time with permissions on folders that were accessed by multiple containers (could write to one folder but not read it with Plex, for example) so I'm going to phase it in incrementally, hopefully without breaking my current setup.

Maybe this is an incredibly dumb question, but I was actually doing research on a very similar question to the OP and I still don't really have a definitive answer.

I currently have a series of docker containers running Plex and the full *arr setup on the Linux drive of my PC. Because I dual boot my machine, I want to migrate my server to a NAS so I don't shut it down whenever I switch from Linux to Windows. I'm seeing that I could theoretically use a NAS just for the media storage and keep all the transcoding (ie all of the docker containers with sonarr, radarr etc) on the existing Linux drive. However, would the Plex container live on the NAS or the Linux drive? I'd assume the NAS...?

Same. I tried to quit (and even deleted my account) but realized that the Lemmy equivalent of my home city community isn't yet on here (and there's also a buy nothing subreddit that's been helpful for getting baby stuff). I use RedReader and I'm only subscribed to three local subreddits.

I'll have to check the box but I'm pretty sure that's what I bought. The fact that this is even an option is pretty exciting. Would I be able to include Adguard if you can push apks to it? (Would it even be worth it?)

My daughter is 2 months old so she's not mobile yet, but this is definitely something I'm dreading in the future lol. Right now all I have to worry about is being woken up by her fussing in her sleep every half hour (she sleeps in a bassinet at the foot of the bed), but we've gotten better at discerning what merits actually getting up vs letting her self-soothe.

To answer the original question, though, having a child will train you to be able to wake up in a matter of seconds...

Huh. Didn't know you could do that to a Chromecast! Do you do it using adb?

I don't know if it's because this variant has milder symptoms or because I was boosted in October, but I got COVID in November and felt almost nothing besides mild irritating cold-like symptoms. I do suspect that the booster helped though because a friend who hasn't yet gotten a booster got sick around the same time and felt a lot worse.

We bought our 1800 sqft house in Sacramento for almost 600k 2 years ago, when it was worth less than half that the last time it was appraised in 2008. We were at least fortunate enough to get a 30 year loan at 3.3% but we will NEVER see property taxes as low as many of our neighbors who have lived there for 20+ years.

My parents are selling their house in a couple of years in order to move closer to us. They'll easily get over a million for it and then they'll turn around and use that money to buy a house for 500k in cash. Yeah, they'll take a hit in taxes but they will still have plenty left for buying the new house outright (so no mortgage), plus doing some additional renovations that my dad wants to do in order to have his dream kitchen.

They've rendered my Google smart speaker mostly useless except as a glorified hands free on/off switch for lights and tv. I used to be able to add items to my shopping list on Bring via voice command, and then suddenly one day it stopped working because they got rid of the tool that enabled that function (I'm not using their shitty lists app instead). I also found out that a tracking app that I use for noting down baby feeding times and diapers used to have voice command functionality until, you guessed it, Google axed that feature. It worked perfectly well before, I'm guessing they didn't want to pay people to maintain it.

I mean, it provides more protection, not immunity. I got boosted in October but I was pregnant and thus immunocompromised. I got it in November but none of the rest of the family did... We hadn't been leaving the house for anything but groceries and even that was enough. My daughter was born at the tail end of symptoms so here's hoping she got a good dose of antibodies to protect her until she's old enough to be vaccinated herself.

It stopped working. They figured out a way around it 😢 Fortunately I found a cracked version of the premium APK so now I get ad free and unlimited hearts without paying a dime (I didn't necessarily care about the unlimited hearts but the ads were fucking obnoxious). I might still look into another system though because they keep reshuffling the format, and I don't feel like I'm progressing.

We bought bidets and have never looked back. My husband actually prefers it because it cleans a hairy ass better lol
