Thanks for calling those points out! You are 100% correct. I think I take it for granted that at this point, all of this “just works” on my setup :)

The audio should not be affected, as far as I’m aware. I get all my stuff from Usenet

Also check out Tdarr! I convert everything to HEVC using that. Shrinks down some files to literally 50% of their original size

Seems like the intro clears some things: https://gamevau.lt/docs/intro It looks like you install the server component on your NAS/server etc and store your game files/binaries/installers there. Then you can download client applications and download from that location to install on your gaming PC or whatever

I know a lot of workplaces/bosses don’t like it, but I’m of the opinion that your time off is your time off. It doesn’t matter if you’re in town or out of town, have the ability to get to work or not, if you have scheduled time off, you shouldn’t have to make any excuses as to why you’re not at work.

I used to not like music at all and 15 year old me would have probably responded just like this guy. But for me it was more that I didn’t know what I liked until I heard it. Everyone around me exclusively listened to top 40 and RnB, or techno/house. I seriously thought there was something wrong with me cos I hated everything I heard. And then I heard metal for the first time, and everything changed.
