Slay the Spire is really nice for limited mobility. Turn based, point and click based. I like to play with one hand while I’m eating with the other.

Who would that benefit?

I also love MMA and shared the same sentiment. I recall seeing this gallery of Joanna Jedrzeczyk’s opponents before and after.

Your opponent doesn’t need to be a man to break your face. Sometimes you’re just outmatched.

Well said. In addition to these stories demonizing trans people (or in this case, masc-looking cis people) they also fragilize women. We normally celebrate women in combat sports as feminist symbols, but suddenly we can’t stomach these delicate little angels being beat up.

I don’t know a ton about boxing, but in MMA fighters made similar comments about fighting Ronda Rousey, Cyborg, Joanna Jedrzeczyk, and Amanda Nunes. “I’ve never been hit that hard.” “She completely overpowered me.”

We already have a way of separating athletes based on their ability. It’s called competition. Sometimes you’re just outmatched.

Sure, in general people had an easier time buying a house in 1960, but that doesn’t account for individual hardship, and this attitude certainly doesn’t help people who need a place to live right now.

These are good questions. Not all arranged marriages are forced or abusive. It seems alien to me as an American, but some people value having their family vet potential partners.

You got me. I made up a story so I could get my one upvote.

A friend of mine worked for a FAANG company and he taught me that people get promoted for creating something “new” rather than improving something that already exists.

This is good to look into. I’ve tried remote streaming on several different devices. Before I bought the NAS I was sure it could handle a few streams, but maybe I was wrong.

Thanks for the tip. My ISP only offers static IPs for the business tier, but I’ll ask about ipv4.

I’m sorry, I’m not knowledgeable enough to answer this. Should my router be bound to a certain IP? I believe it has an assigned local IP, but does it also have a public one?

Ah, okay. Thanks for the clarification.

Thanks for the concise reply!

-Streaming quality is set to original on every device I use to access Plex.

-I still get confused about open ports, but I’ll check again and make sure it’s not running through relay.

-I believe the hardware should be fast enough to transcode at least a couple streams, but I’ll check again.

Remote access is enabled but whether I’m actually able to access the server or library remotely is intermittent. Plex says I may be double-natted but I was pretty sure I’m not. I’ll have to investigate again.

Thanks for sharing your experience. I pay for a static IP through my VPN provider, and I’ve wondered if there would be a benefit to running my server through the static IP, then using the same IP to access the server remotely. (Not sure if I’m describing that correctly.)

Unfortunately I’m using Nest WiFi and it doesn’t have QoS settings. You’re making me consider buying a new mesh router system because Nest also doesn’t have manual band selection, which I need for some IoT devices.

These are excellent ideas to test where the bottleneck is. Thank you very much.

Thank you for this. I’ll check my port forwarding on my router (Google Nest WiFi).

Ah, Plex suggested I might be double-natted. Since fiber doesn’t need a modem (from my understanding) I have: fiber cable to box, box Ethernet to router, router ethernet to NAS. Maybe it would be better if I did box directly to NAS? Or would that put it on a separate network? I’ll look into your double-nat solution. Thank you.

I tested between 800-900Mbps UP, closer to a full gig down.
