How come hotel check-in time is always 3-4?
I got in on an earlier flight, and arrived at 6 it was a pain in the ass… I literally had to walk around for like 4 hours until things opened, and I was so tired and weary all day.
What possible, fundamental, misunderstanding of the nature of the universe could make current academics look like flat earthers?
I actually appreciate some details of Star Trek: Discovery
At first, when I watched it, I thought it was absolutely ridiculous that Starfleet engineers built spark and flame generators into the Discovery’s bridge, but thinking about it, given that you have inertial dampers and other things that minimize or completely eliminate the physical feeling you would receive from the ship...
What do you think of the term "short king" as a term that's supposed to champion body positivity for men?
Body positivity is such a strange concept to me. There’s efforts to reclaim words while simultaneously calling them bad if used as an insult. Ideally, people wouldn’t be offended by someone describing their body with common descriptors, but socially there is so much value attributed to certain body types that it’s almost...

Anyone here has experience using a subsonic-like server?
I’m looking into setting up a subsonic-like server to stream music from. I find the ecosystem a bit weird because there are a lot of independent softwares that implement a subsonic API (I don’t know what that entails exactly). Because of this it’s a bit difficult to choose which implementation would be best for me....
What file format do you store your media in?
Hello! I recently listened to a podcast that talked about how storing media files in .av1 format is very efficient and storage-friendly. I’ve been storing my files in .mkv format, but now I’m considering using Handbrake or a similar service to convert all my video files to .av1 if it’s more compressed than .mkv. So;...
Does a VPN used on a smartphone with Wi-Fi disabled (mobile data only enabled) provide any sort of protection?
I’ve never completely understood this, but I think the answer would probably be “no,” although I’m not sure.

So in the whole anti-natalism/pro-natalism conversation (which I’m mostly agnostic/undecided on, currently), my friend who is a pro-natalist, argued that the success/stability of our world economy is dependent on procreating more children each year than the previous year, so that we not only replace the numbers of the people...

Most unique looking celebrities?
I’m working on a side project studying variations in human facial features. It’s been helpful to study celebrity faces because it’s easy to find numerous reference photos.

Secure portal between Internet and internal services

I’m looking for a way to remotely access my home network at a site like remote.mywebsite.com.
