It's so funny when they think Biden has a cult of rabid supporters.

A country doesn't enforce tarriffs on other countries... unless I'm misunderstanding what you mean.

And who would I be buying it from?

Is that how you think this works? Nobody gets to choose where they're born, and people tend to stay close to their families or other support systems, and their jobs. They might have partners or kids who are similarly invested in the area. Not so easy.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not disagreeing with your general point that right-wing terrorism is ignored by the media. Just wanted to clarify that you said "every one of them had a manifesto" but the Vegas shooter did not. That said, a lot of the details of his life are things I associate with right-wingers: worked for Lockheed, owned rental properties, 2nd amendment, lots of cruises. Like you said, I would describe his motive as "disdain for other people/society" but for some reason that's not considered terrorism.

FWIW, the Vegas shooter did not have a manifesto and I don't remember seeing any evidence that he was a white nationalist.

I assume OP is using "original" loosely to refer to non-Disney/Marvel IP.

You're getting downvoted and I'm soon to follow, but everything you said is reasonable and it's almost never wrong to ask for evidence. I continue to be surprised at how tightly this community clings to the narrative that non-voters alone decided the election.

Daniel Radcliffe in the Weird Al movie. Everyone in Possessor.

I had never heard of her before Pearl, and she fucking blew me away. I've been underwhelmed with her choice of roles since then, but she's earned my respect.

My oldest sister got [what she believes to be] COVID in Feb 2020. She's been on disability since then, and while she's not cognitively impaired, she can't walk around for more than 60 seconds before having to lay down again.

Man, I won't write the movie off completely, but your attitude has really left a bad taste in my mouth.

 

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.

 

There are a few spots I've neglected to replace old brittle sealant (around the kitchen sink) or never sealed at all (new faucet I installed 8 months ago). Now there's black gunk accruing under and around the sealant.

When I go to replace the sealant, how do I kill the mold so it's safe to seal over again?

Thanks for any advice you can offer.
