I run a Piehole and don't see any of the ads on my Fire TVs.

It's that or because I'm still running the old gen2 firetv box that's way out of OS support...

Synology makes great 1-4 bay NAS. Lots of documentation, fairly easy setup and one click installs of applications. The consumer grade ones are fairly inexpensive and work just as well.

I use Kod instead of Plex i on my devices and have it just night the NAS in the app. I signed the Kodi db to be in the NAS so all my devices track what I've already watched and progress of currently watching. It works great.

Get a UPS to protect your data in case of power outage. One that you can hook USB to a PC/NAS so it can tell the PC to shut down properly. A very common feature.

For anyone else curious:

An adult human male's hand weighs about a pound

That's less then I was expecting...

About 10 years ago I needed a new can opener. I also bought the EZ-Duz-It from Walmart, it was like $9 at the time, double the cost of the other one available. Totally worth it, and I still have it. The only way I see this thing breaking is if I start using it to loosen rusted bolts on the car while changing out the brakes.

I always thought Fat is satieting. In other's uou may get the opposite effect of becoming round from consuming it.

Not OP, but... I took a pay cut years ago not as dramatic of a cut about 104k to 72k. I no longer had to drive to work but took a bus so I saved 90 miles (145 km) a day in driving. So I had a big savings on gas, and car, and with the time savings I could switch my kid to a regular daycare because I no longer needed extended hours. I had more free time to cook all of our meals so I had a big savings on food versus take out all the time. I also had the time to do work on my house versus hiring out. I cut back on vacation budgets but we had time to get out of the house and play at the parks and trails nearby every day. All and all a cut in income but a big increase in enjoyment in life. For savings I was able to save about the same between the two jobs.

It was the Wheel Of Time series that got me to get an e-reader, those books where massive tomes and a PITA to carry around. I've stuck with an e-reader since, easy on size, weight, and the eyes. I got a Kindle Paperwhite for the back lightning like a decade ago or when ever it came out and use Calibre to manage the books on it.

I was already playing around with Lemmy, and after a few weeks I checked back into RIF and saw his post, so I came over to .World.
