If I can throw it at the wall and it doesn't stick I just put it back on.

Not really the point, but sure, whatever.

Stars. I don't see them as much anymore as I did growing up.

$5 million of spare money. Not net total wealth but actually $5 million investable dollars.

At that point, I'd you stick that money in a very conservative and safe brokerage account allocation, 5% return per year is $250k. That is a higher salary than almost anyone needs, meaning you can live very comfortably without working. You can't buy a yacht but you can be "done" and so can your children and their children if they aren't stupid.

If you choose to work, then you can just reinvest that $250k and let compound interest do its thing and get richer. Lucky you.

Gotta be Black/White. It was the first time the writing really took a step forward. The antagonist wasn't just evil for no reason. They had a compelling story and their motivations made sense and you could sympathize with them.

This isn't made by EA. These are the same people who made It Takes Two.

EA makes shit games themselves these days but their program for supporting smaller independent studios has resulted in some really great titles.

I have learned the difference between "your" and "you're".

Imprint will always be the correct way.

"Inprint" is not a word.

I was a skeptical kid. A fat man making his way down every single chimney in the country in one night? No way. Never really bought into it.

Yes, for education and medical reasons. If you are not a legal guardian (which doesn't need to include adoption if you don't want it to) you are unable to officially be a contact point, decision maker, or caretaker of a child.

That means that if the kid falls off a bicycle and breaks his wrist or needs some stitches, the hospital cannot release him to you. It means that if anything happens at school, the school legally cannot call you and has to contact his parents. It means that you cannot sign release forms for school trips. You can't pay for his medical expenses via your insurance. You can't sign any form or piece of paper in general that he may need until he's 18.

What you have done is a wonderful and generous thing. Do the paperwork to become his legal guardian now so that when a situation arises where you need to be, it's all set.

Worth noting that I'm sure your plan is "up to 1000mbps". They always use the words "up to". The speed you are paying for is the maximum you can get, not the minimum that they guarantee you will get.

 

I'm trying to set up Syncthing on Fedora Server OS (40). I followed the docs, the systemd service is up and running. Ports are open in the firewall, that's all good.

I've found in many, many, many Google searches that in order to access the WebUI via a local network machine (which is the only way I can) you need to update the config in order to allow this - changing the web GUI port from 127.0.0.1 to 0.0.0.0. I found a config file and made that change. I have done every combination of stopping the service, restarting the service, updating the config, and restarting the daemon. I have even restarted the entire server. Every single time the server starts, the god damned logs say the web GUI is available via 127.0.0.1:8384. I cannot get it to open to the local network. I cannot find any other config files. I don't know how else to do this. If anyone has any advice, I would be very much obliged.

I torrent to a seedbox, and said seedbox has great access tools and you can install plenty of useful applications like Resilio Sync, Syncthing, etc.

My local server is running Fedora Server OS. I'd like to get an automated 1-way sync up and running, but I'm having a lot of trouble. I was using Syncthing in the past, but it's really not meant for one way syncs and caused some issues. I've been trying to set up Resilio Sync, but on Linux I cannot figure out how to get access to the web UI. Resilio's own documentation is frustratingly obtuse - it's great for setting up the service under systemd but then basically has nothing about how to actually get webui access from another machine on the local network, excrot for a reference to a command that doesn't actually exist.

If anyone either 1) knows how to set up Resilio Sync on a Linux machine such that I can hit the web UI from another machine on my local network or 2) had a better way to set up 1-way sync between my seedbox and my local server, I would love to learn!
