I’ve had a lot of success taking the rules that YNAB uses and applying to my own budgeting method. I recommend checking out Actual Budget if you’re capable of self-hosting and want a fancier software instead of a spreadsheet. The rules are key, though; pick a methodology/mindset you agree with and stick with it.
Another vote for Porkbun here. I switched after Google Domains shared they were selling off to Squarespace. It’s been a lovely experience and their website just seems more human than the other big players. Cloudflare isn’t a terrible alternative option as long as you’ll be using their DNS.
I had someone send me a 7z at work a few weeks ago and I got so elated that it wasn’t a zip! I did have to request IT to install 7zip but I’m so glad to have it installed now. It’s nice to see it being adopted more.
It’s too early to know how exactly it’ll be implemented, but I’d bet there would likely be a toggle/setting to turn on at the very least. I’m sure the upgrade instructions will be early laid out how to enable it.
Yes, the seller was Topton Computer Store. No complaints from me on the purchase/process!
I use a similar one of these (different io panel and case) for OPNSense and it’s been a delight. Not sure how well it would handle Plex but if you don’t need to transcode the files it should be fine. I bought one without ram, os, and storage for $150 last year. That listing isn’t available anymore.
Having had both great and terrible work out days, I found what led to the good, enjoyable days was purely the mindset. HIIT on a stationary bike sucks, but I had some fun sessions when I turned it into a game. Weight lifting routines can be super boring, but changing from rep based to time based and seeing if you can crank out a few more reps without sacrificing form can make it fun.
It takes a lot to get into that mindset for me, but it’s possible and it makes a world of difference. Gamification of any task can introduce a challenge and give oneself a better purpose in the moment.
The class keyword exists for a reason and it has a perfectly fine use case when you need to make use of creating new objects. I think it may be disliked because people come over from Java assuming you need to define everything as objects/classes when we have modules and other methods of doing the same thing with a little bit less clutter. I recommend reading up on the underlying functionality and how classes and objects work compared to modules.
Acrylic paints are your friend here. They last a long while in their bottles and you can keep a palette for a few days when using a wet palette. start with just using a brush and jump up to an airbrush if you want to cover a bigger area or do fancy stuff (an air brush is far from required). As another commenter said, the minipainting community has a ton of resources, text and video tutorials, and willing to provide constructive feedback if you want it.
Just remember: thin your paints~
