Maybe it’s just important to stay generally social with folks of all types, as perspectives and conversations keep us young? Is that a good maxim?

I think you hit the nail on the head.

Where you live is one thing, but how you face the world is another. As we age, it seems that we have increased challenges in the areas you note.

Trust becomes harder. Acknowledging our own faults and cognitive degradations becomes harder. Making decisions becomes harder. And desire to remain autonomous becomes stronger. Those things don’t jive too well.

One more thing to add: maintain a community of similarly-aged peers. Otherwise, one might feel like they are on an island.

This is based on my experience caring for an elderly family member.

I’ve just started a Zulip POC and it’s been decent so far. Definitely resembles Discord.

OP — Plex is a step easier, as Plex brokers the connection. No reverse proxy. The same plus in this case can also be seen as a minus.

I’m still on the Plex bus, and it’s good for me and friends. Jellyfin will get there one day, but right now it’s just not quite feature complete enough for my use cases.

Similar boat. I’m still on the Plex train, but otherwise I share the same story and recommendation.

Hey, don’t judge a cover of a book by its look.

And check out Trailer Park Boys.

Just trying to share a random screen grab, or want to say or ask something about it? Search for some Windows or Tech communities and post away.

Worst case Ontario, you get some downvotes.

Yeah it is! Glad I wasn’t alone with how that felt. The community logo shrinks while reducing the banner works just fine for me UX-wise.

I’ve been really enjoying the app again. More importantly, I hope you’re enjoying life a bit as well.

Minor thought, so minor that I’m commenting here instead of on GitHub, I would love the option to disable the snappy new animations.

I find it very unnatural for the rate of scrolling to change mid-scroll. That is, when scrolling a community or my profile, the scroll motion goes super fast and then slows back down. For me, this feels a lot like going up a staircase with different height steps.

I’m with you on this one, too. I prefer my jet boil and instant coffee (or matcha) compared to an Aeropress.

Nespresso machines are definitely pressurized and temp controlled. Keurig, less so.

I read something somewhere once (great source, right?) regarding Keurig temps, and they weren’t consistent or optimal. And the pressure is more like a hose with an attachment as opposed to a pressure washer.

Some K cups will empty out when you use them, too. From what I’ve run into, that’s typically the fancy flavor ones. But some are just coffee grounds that get a suboptimal water flow at suboptimal temps going through them.

Someone can correct me on what I’m remembering though.

Yup, expect a residue if you delay removal. Painters tape is meant to be removed relatively soon after application. Rubbing alcohol can typically remove the residue.

I can’t find my source for this memory, but I recall several years ago reading about Apple introducing automatic device resprings / restarts overnight. I think I still had my iPhone X at the time.

In my experience, it only happens while charging. I might have to cruise the old jailbreak subreddits to find whatever I think I’m remembering here.

Just checked https://github.com/Memmy-App/memmy – and you’re right! Woohoo!

And gkasdorf is making commits already today. Like 45 minutes ago. I hope they’re feeling refreshed and can find a good balance.

Oh my, I didn’t catch that one but will be searching for it!

I love* solving wonky user issues. People do the darndest things.

*Subject to tolerance and patience levels of both user and self

Nothing wrong with a Windows box as your server. Use what you know. Windows skills are a great asset in the world.

This issue is OS-independent, meaning you would have the same problem on a Raspberry Pi as you did on your Windows box.

Irrelevant, unless your pihole is running on your DHCP server. Does the server running pihole have a statically assigned IP that is within the DHCP range being assigned to other devices?

Static addresses should be outside of your DHCP range, ideally. If you can’t change the range, and assuming sequential handouts of IPs from your router among other things, you can try setting the server’s static IP to a bigger number.

After trying Voyager to replace Memmy, I’ve ultimately been using Thunder on iOS. I’d change a few things, but I ain’t complaining.

You’re sending our guy on the High Fidelity path. Be careful OP, Cusak thought he wanted the feedback, too.

I’ve been so happy with rediscovering rss via FreshRSS and NetNewsWire that I’m chiming in on old threads. That is all. 🤙🏻
