I don’t know how to tell you this bud, but willful ignorance is a global phenomenon. For instance, some people think US Americans are the only dumbshits in the world, when, in fact, they are just the loudest

Well yeah, like a lima bean

There is a small village in Ohio named Buena Vista.

The locals pronounce it in a way that rhymes with Loona Fista

The Office
Napoleon Dynamite
Grease
Reservoir Dogs
Big Bang Theory (or any popular laugh-track sitcom post 2000)
(Nevermind, you said highly extolled, not just popular)
Chicago, Rent, and Cats
Harry Potter (even before JKR went full terf, probably just a generational thing, honestly)
Taylor Swift (again, nothing personal, just not my jam)
Sideways, Marriage Story, Whiplash (intense interpersonal drama, particularly dealing with infidelity or power disparity)

I can’t watch The Office.

My empathy makes me feel super uncomfortable watching people do socially mean or cringe things. I enjoyed most of Parks and Rec, but I didn’t like the way they treated Garry, and almost stopped watching because of that running gag.

Oddly enough, I devoured The Bear. It’s not high anxiety or intensity that turns me off, it’s the banal meanness that some express that I can’t stand. The Bear is intense, but the characters feel genuine and honest

Rogue.

No matter what my intentions, I always wind up being a stealth archer. May as well own it

Not that I could just play a PC, forever GM 😭

10 million to haphazardly “eliminate” screw worm. 990 million to “contractors” that do nothing

than selfhost on CasaOS/ZimaOS/FancyWebGui/Synology and just spin up containers randomly without even understand what a container is and how it does work at all

• I’m in this picture and I don’t like it

…a significant part of the spine does not bend.

My scoliosis would like a word

I try to not be seen as queer at work

I instantly thought of this character in the Key & Peele Office Homophobe sketch (or whatever it’s called).

True.

They serve the ruling class. What do rich people wear?

(Jimmy)Choolicker?

I might die, but I’ll be very smug about it

This reminds me of one of my favorite songs, “The Wizard’s Staff Has A Knob on the End”. Second only to the Hedgehog Song

Oh okay, awesome! Thank you for the info, and for sharing your knowledge <3

Instead of using tail scale I set up Synology DDNS and a security certificate from Let’s Encrypt. (I went back and looked at the tutorial I followed and that was one of the steps.) I’m pretty sure when I log in remotely it’s via https. Does that also encrypt against the type of shoulder overlooking you’re talking about?

You gotta understand, I’m not even at the beginning of the Dunning-Kruger cognitive bias spread. I do use a VPN when I’m browsing, but that’s on a different machine from the Synology and not really relevant to what you were saying

Probably, I dunno. Technical idiot, remember? From a real life perspective, what are the consequences of unencrypted video files being shared to a Roku?
