  • There are different leagues. Men typically focus on looks first then other things like personality.

    Women typically look for other things first, and looks are second or third or lower depending on the woman.

    A guy on a first date might think the girl is out of his league, based on looks. But the girl might think he’s out of her league due to socioeconomic standing and education/intellect or humor. Even if he’s a bit funny looking or overweight, that can actually add to his charisma if he’s little confident.

    Guys think girls want gym-bod, girls actually want dad-bod. Because girls see gym-bod and think he’s a muscle-bound idiot who spends all his freetime at the gym. Dad-bod is way better because that means he’s not hyperfocused about being away from home during all his free time. Plus snuggles are nicer. Dad-bods don’t mean weaker either, just look at strong-man competitions.

    Obviously this is generalized based on conversations I’ve had with my wife after reading articles or topics that arise. YMMV.





  • Tldr: different countries wanna do 6g differently. Actually a big problem is the big beautiful bill that just passed in the US. Wifi6e/7 6ghz spectrum that was reserved for wifi got approved to get auctioned off. But it’s already a global standard. If us cell cariers buy it up and use it to make faster 6g cell speeds (short distance very high speed). That’s going to fragment standards globally.

    Cell carriers don’t currently use anywhere near all their spectrum they already own.


  • I haven’t seen anyone in the comments try to justify your actions from a chrisitian point of view. I’ll try and likely fail. I’m a former christian.

    There is no “thou shalt not lust after a woman” commandment. There is a “thou shalt not commit adultary” commandment. And there is the admonition from Mathew that if you lust after a woman you’ve already committed adultary in your heart.

    But here’s the rub. How do you define adultary? ANY sex before marriage? Or cheating on a spouse? If you define it as cheating on a spouse, then I can see where Mathew is coming from. A married man lusting after a woman who isn’t his wife HAS emotionally cheated on her already. But by that definition, a single man CAN’T commit adultary with a single woman. There’s no cheating. Prostitute or not, two single consenting adults don’t break that commandment.

    I don’t think adultary means “sex outside of marriage” I think it means “sex outside of marriage”. Big difference.

    I believe extremists like to push the commandments to encompass more than they really do.


  • I have had several firetvs which I really can’t recommend anymore. I don’t mind roku with jellyfin client and an adblocker like pihole except the garbage “daily trivia” options that pop up on the sidebar that you have to hide once a week is annoying. Currently use an Nvidia shield with a custom launcher isn’t a terrible experience, except for the fact that I have to reboot it all the time because it’s glitchy as shit and it was overpriced.

    I’m tempted to next try the NUC with that fancy KDE big picture mode I saw get a facelift recently.

    Oh, and tried one of those virus ridden chineese android boxes. Also do not recommend.


  • Not every download client supports blocking filetypes. Here’s how I solved it:

    You can add cleanuperr to your *.arr stack. It will listen to your queues and if something gets stuck, like .arj files, it’ll remove them, blocklist them, and maybe re-search? I’m not sure.

    You can also change your settings in sonarr to not do any rss sync searches with your public indexers. This stops sonarr from seaching those indexers automatically for the next release. I’ve notices most of that garbage pops up before the official release, then gets drowned out by the real stuff after the release. If you leave the auto/interactive search enabled, you can just click the auto search button for the episode the day after it comes out. You likely won’t pick up any garbage this way.

    I wrote a script that spam reports these, and I run it when I’m feeling frustrated with a something, but nothing I’ve spam reported with the script has gotten taken down yet. So, that sucks too.




  • Home Assistant? Maybe a homepage like Heimdall or some other dashboard? Maybe Uptime Kuma to notify you when your services go down? Definately a pihole or adguard home. Biggest quality of life improvement. It’s the biggest thing my wife notices and approves of. She audibly groans in disgust when she leaves the LAN on her cellphone and sees all the ads and garbage that had previously been blocked. My pihole dashboard show 70% of the requests are blocked on my LAN. And everything works great.
