Trolley problem Pt. 2: A cancer hospital, limited funds, patients of various ages and conditions. Should there be a universal answer?
I’d assume we want everyone to survive and carry on with their lives equally. Yet, if we can’t, there’s a choice of distributing our doctors’ time and equipments towards some of patients rather than others....
To those who know about writing and such: Does a Mary Sue/Gary Stu NEVER fail? or their failings are to minimal to take account on them?
I’m writing a story and I’m worried that I might inadvertently turn one of my main characters into a Mary Sue. I’d like to know if it’s enough to give her the odd flaw or imperfection or if I should be more drastic and make her screw up big time.
Is there anyone who can help me mod and style a community? Or do I need to do it on my own?

Twitch Adblock issue
Any idea how to fix this annoying message when having ‘‘TTV LOL PRO’’ extension installed on FireFox? The Twitch Adblocker seems to be detected and gives either this message or a infinite loading circle.
Suggestions for General Public
I’ve recently started a job driving a shuttle van across the city for the general public. I’ve got a wide amount of leeway, but the audiobooks I’ve been listening to have been… not hitting right. I started with “The Name of the Wind” which was extremely well reviewed. I liked it a lot for the most part, and for the...

Is there anything like Native Alpha using the Firefox engine?
I have been loving Native Alpha. Being able to use web versions of apps and not be forced to hand over absurd privacy violating permissions is awesome. My only problem is it appears to run straight off of Chrome’s web engine, and I would rather use Firefox. In large part because of extensions/addons.

Getting varied download speeds in Qbittorrent?
Hi there, I’m still a bit new to downloading .iso’s, but think i’ve got the gist of it. I’ve been following the Trash guides along the way. However one thing that I don’t understand is why Im getting such varied download speeds for the .iso’s im downloading. Some of them will download at KiB speed others will be...

Debian 12 install - monitors won't turn off
Hi, all. Finally migrated from Kubuntu to Debian 12 over the weekend. It’s working great, as I figured it would, with one exception: The system isn’t turning the monitors off after 10 minutes. It’s blanking them, but they’re clearly still on....

My work is organizing right now, this afternoon, and I don't know what I'm doing. What are the best practices? What are the pitfslls?
I work in a restaurant, high-end, multiple locations across the US. We are in Chicago, specifically. We have corporate in for the week as we launch a new menu with training for the whole team every day. Yesterday, second day, right before the end of the day, they sprung on us that they are changing our pay structure....

Audiobookbay in Prowlarr (or jackett) - Anyone have a new workaround?
I found some old threads but nothing I could get working today. My automated readarr setup would greatly benefit from ABB access. Which I used to have not long ago but now seems to be blocked. Not everything is on MAM, unfortunately.

Young people these days only use the word "slut" in dirty talk, such that calling someone a slut in polite company is now unacceptable. The sluts stole the word for themselves. Great job, sluts!
Local Driving App
Google Maps is changing and will keep drive log data on the phone. I like to go on photo-drives following roads to find “Kodak moments”, I also would like a map of my random rambles. I would prefer that the data for that map be locally collected on my phone but the map itself uploadable to my laptop. Does anyone have an App...
