Do you need antivirus software to participate in the seas?

Im always scaredd, but my antivirus software is expiring tomorrow and i wanted to know!

I was do certain that they were trying to hide everything that I painfully read the whole thing and nothing. Just bad design.

When Kelly Poole found a familiar owl in her shed looking sick and lethargic, she contacted Ringgold VA Wildlife Rescue, who helped get him to Southwest Virginia Wildlife Center of Roanoke for an evaluation.

Experts discovered he was actually healthy and going through a "catastrophic molt," and after being released, he was later spotted nearby with his feathers grown back and looking like himself again.

Are wi-fi hotspots/repeaters a good way to mitigate privacy issues from routers?

Routers from what I understand have a few way to monitor people around, like radio-based sonar, logging and informing of every device that connects to it, etc.

If wanting to ensure some more #privacy, would it be a good option to keep the router as far as possible from the common areas of the house, so what I can "see" is blurry at best, while using repeaters like old phones on vanilla AOSP and SBC devices?

That's not my area so maybe I'm going way off in my assumptions, but I'd think that these repeaters wouldn't bridge sonar functions, they wouldn't report on devices connected through them, their systems wouldn't be a black box unlike the router itself, data packets sent from devices with VPN would remain encrypted while they go through the repeaters and router's route, and with ethernet cables could allow for an specially long distance.

So... Would it be an interesting option?

Continued smol brain adventures in Docker

So I managed to get Docker set up (I think) with the help of a script called Deployrr, then used the linuxserver.io docker file thing.

The plex media server runs and I can see all my content in the web UI, however none of the plex apps can connect to it.

Can anyone help point me in the right direction to fix this without doxxing myself?

It was the movie of the day when I was coming of age. I wasn't a Molly Ringwald fan but did think Ally Sheedy was a great actor. Everyone my age at the time was all about Molly (and then all about a different kind of Molly 20 years later...), but the movie was a fad frenzy that I never saw until it came out on VHS (I grew up on a ranch). I was in 5th grade in 1985 when it originally came out. The local video rental place in town finally got the tape a few years later.

When I watched it, I identified halfway between the nerd (Anthony Michael Hall) and the social reject (Judd Nelson). I had the brain and the bad home, so I didn't exactly fit neatly into John Hugh's little compartments.

I still don't at 52 and it shows.

But I'm sure plenty of people from younger generations have seen the movie. Maybe they were forced to watch it via parents reminiscing about the "great 80's", or stayed in some hotel where they had cable and it was the only thing to watch besides Supermarket Sweep, or -- just said "hell with it" and streamed the damn thing.

So please, I'm looking for more than opinions (or God forbid, political BS) -- I want perspective. I want your thoughts and emotions and I'll go first:

I really thought it sucked that the "nerd" left alone. Everyone left with a soulmate but him. I also thought the movie completely avoided the whole rumor mill of "Brian's dad is the JANITOR!!!". Coming from a bad home, I really never wanted to introduce "badness" into anyone's home. I wanted an escape from my own home, albeit not with Molly. The whole weed thing -- actually -- was probably one of the most honest takes on the film.

That's my take. What's yours? And thank you!

Hi all,

I am looking into ultrastar (singstar alternative)

Is there an easy way, to start with a proper Library without doing all the editing work myself? Sailing is not a problem, but I can't find anything that still works.

Can someone point me in the right direction?

The Hollywood theme park built a “whisper quiet” ride to avoid angering nearby neighbors. They didn’t fully account for the enthusiasm of the riders.

Everyone farts. But not everyone tracks their farts.

Now, smart underwear is making a case for paying closer attention to what comes out of your body. Its creators said they hope that tracking flatulence could eventually give researchers new insight into digestive health — and how a person’s farts offer clues about what’s happening in the gut.

Brantley Hall, the brains behind the smart underwear and an associate professor at the University of Maryland’s department of cell biology and molecular genetics, said the team’s “ultimate mission is to help people eat high-fiber diets comfortably with low intestinal gas.”
