Hello! Some info about me is up on my website: https://wreckedcarzz.com
More of the fact that they are 2.5x the price of the parts, and the cases they are in are the opposite of ‘optimized for cooling’. Thermal throttling is the name of the game here.
Like a Ferrari that looks great (great in air-quotes here) in the driveway, but overheats a block down the street, essentially.

oof, a gut punch if I’ve ever seen one

“this baby has a 4 speed manual transmission, an am/fm radio, and floor mats!” right out of The Price Is Right ‘feature list’. Mouse and keyboard not included.
I’m using Thunder (app), first one I tried and it’s basically what I had with RedReader so I’ve never really tried anything else.
Fair. I didn’t type it since I don’t want to be that guy like ‘you mean [word]’. It’s very context sensitive yeah, but I think it’s okay in the right moment.
But the question is “where were”, and we haven’t colonized Mars yet even so past or current tense doesn’t matter. You’d just pop and then “oh no” (but in baby speech).
With some specific exceptions, for me. If you are one, and you aren’t using it against others, it’s fine. Like storytelling and describing a conversation, or just even being playful about it. Maybe being at a store with some friends looking at clothes or something, describing yourself and how something looks perhaps? Totally fine in my book. That’s our term, we should be able to reclaim it for ourselves.
But someone else who I don’t know and can’t immediately determine the meaning/context that uses it? Bitch you about to die.
Like literally like oh my gawd did you see that basic bitch with last year’s iPhone pro max ultra deluxe special edition? I’m totally unfolloeing her on everything
it’s literally the day after the release of the new model
I uh… I’m not sure what your source is, but for mine ‘breeding’ is anything but “only for procreation”
E: in case it isn’t painfully obvious, I am le gay, so that may factor into your source woes :p
You have no oxygen supply or life support system. You die immediately.

This isn’t a guide, but any reverse proxy allows you to limit open ports on your network (router) by using subdomains (thisPart.website.com) to route connections to an internal port.
So you setup a rev proxy for jellyfin.website.com that points to the port that jf wants to use. So when someone connects to the subdomain, the reverse proxy is hit, and it reads your configuration for that subdomain, and since it’s now connected to your internal network (via the proxy) it is routed to the port, and jf “just works”.
There’s an ssl cert involved but that’s the basic understanding. Then you can add Some Other Services at whatever.website.com and rinse and repeat. Now you can host multiple services, without exposing the open ports directly, and it’s easy for users as there is nothing “confusing” like port numbers, IP addresses, etc.
It’s not even looks, for some of us. I’m demisexual, and before we became a thing, my master was nowhere near my ‘type’. But he was incredibly sweet and caring, always has been, and the affection grew from there. When my ex fiancé left me, he was there, supporting me in crisis. Always there, doing his best to care for me. Now a few years on, I think he’s sexy as fuck, and I’m very happy with him.
Back to the question though, I’ve never really flirted with anyone. Always very direct, ‘hey you are cute/funny/shy/interesting’ mixed with ‘I’m horny, and you are the one causing that’ thus ‘want to fuck?’. I always put desert before the main course, as it were, since sex is a big thing for me - so I don’t want to get attached if we aren’t at least a bit compatible. What easier way then to jump right into it? Then if it goes well, we are already miles beyond the usual starter-pack bs, so the whole courting/flirting stuff is just unnecessary. We already have been horny freaks, we’ve already figured out that our desires align at least a bit, ‘why not date?’
The traditional way seems so… stupid, frankly. Slow buildup over weeks/months just to meet a brick wall when you find out that he only gets off with butt stuff, while you/they are repulsed to the point of vomiting at the thought… ‘well that was a fun 2 months, thanks and I’ll see you around I guess’. Nah, that just doesn’t make sense to me.
And there’s the whole awkward ‘what if they reject me’ like my guy/gal/sentient being, just stfu and ask them. Direct, no bullshit, no games, no dancing around the question. ‘hey, you’re cute, are you seeing someone?’ is fine. Asking if they have a Facebook account so you can add them and then changing your relationship status to ‘it’s complicated’ and hoping they comment on that, isn’t the smart play.
I guess if they enjoy it, sure, flirt away. But in my mind it makes no sense and merely complicates and extends an awkward phase.
Do note that I myself decided long ago that I’d only date other furries, so the dating pool is… very liberating, vs the standard. But that doesn’t mean that people have to continue following the same rules and expectations.
Do what makes you feel right, and fuck the norms. You don’t owe anyone anything, and if someone expects something of you that you don’t think is ideal, maybe they aren’t for you, and that’s okay. You aren’t made from a cookie cutter, don’t try to conform to one.

Copied from my website (I hate companies who don’t give a fuck):
Hilton (2023): both HGI @ BWI and the Twitter representatives + upper management put money way before the safety and experiences of a disabled customer, and provided a pittance of redemption - but they are so happy that I’m a loyal diamond-level customer. Talk is cheap and Hilton loves to use it, but not much else. Hello, Marriott!
First and foremost: if you take nothing else from this review, do not stay here. I stayed here twice for a total of 4 nights and both stays were marred by incorrect room types and poor customer service. This extends to Hilton HQ as they were insultingly uninterested in making things right.
I’m a disabled individual who booked one king size bed with roll-in shower for both stays, and had booked several months in advance. When I arrived on day 1 of stay 1, I walked in to check-in as the mobile ability was unavailable, only to be told that check-in wouldn’t be available for some time. After dragging my exhausted self back to the car and getting food, I was checked in automatically around an hour later, so I returned to the hotel, got keycards from the front desk, and headed to our room. I was greeted by an incorrect room - an accessible tub instead of a roll-in shower - but my +1 suggested that we try to make it work. Spoiler warning: when you are disabled and are given incorrect accommodations, you are going to have a bad time. It was both difficult and dangerous for me, even with assistance, to shower. But as we had dinner and decided to get some sleep, the two of us crawled into bed; and it collapsed.
So, after being confused and colorful language was exchanged, we decided to investigate what happened and attempt to mend it. Remember now that it’s almost 1am, I haven’t slept in 25 hours, I’m barely capable of basic daily functions and me and my +1 are trying to, non-destructively, mend a bed. We find that the support slats are woefully inadequate and in short supply, with only 6 on each side of the bed (my cheapo frame at home has double that, and they are better secured as to avoid this problem). After a few minutes we get the bed apart, shift and adjust and reinstall the slats, and reassemble the bed. At checkout I received a survey and detailed these issues, and received an email supposedly from the management apologizing for my troubles, thanking me for being a diamond member, but offering nothing but empty words.
On day 1 of stay 2 a week later, I was again unable to do mobile check-in and was presented with a message to ‘simply come to the front desk’. Worried but with a day-long drive ahead of me, I started the road trip. When I arrived at midnight, I was told that they just needed to see my ID (why? I was just here without that requirement) and then they gave me the keycards and off we went. Except, the room I was given this time wasn’t even an accessible room. It was a standard corner (read: ikea-tiny sized) and the air was ripe with weed. As a standard room used a shower-tub combo that I cannot get into, my +1 went down to the front desk while I stayed behind (as walking is difficult and slow). When they were gone I surveyed the other customers of the hotel, and while I don’t want to make assumptions, I got the feeling that there was illegal adult activities occurring just two rooms away, with people coming and going and some individuals hanging around the door in the hallway.
When my +1 returned a few minutes later they had good news, we’ve been moved to a different room a few doors down. When we arrived and opened the door, we saw that it was a ‘suite’ (read: a living room space with couch and TV, alongside the standard basic bedroom and bath). Fine by me, and this room actually has the correct accessible bathroom. Both of us noted how the air was stale and smelled ‘dusty’, like it hadn’t been used in quite some time. As I fell in bed, well past 1 in the morning, my +1 made an announcement.
“There’s a hole in the ceiling.”
Let’s recap: first stay, wrong room, bed collapsed upon sitting on it; second stay, wrong room, room not accessible, replacement room unusually stale, replacement room has hole in the ceiling. We aren’t done yet, by the way. Morning came and when we checked out, we alerted the front desk clerk about the (now apparent) water damage, hole, and sagging ceiling, who acted like we were just bothering her lunch break. She also had a tone with a customer who called in.
Never again.
Resolution: I was given 10k Hilton points - a value of roughly $40 at the location this all occurred at - which is unacceptably low (I was looking for a 1-night refund) given what happened. I plan on downgrading or outright canceling my Hilton credit card with American Express, as after I use my accumulated points I will cease to be a customer due to the lack of empathy and compassion, at all levels at this property as well as HQ; not just for a loyal customer, but a disabled one.
I have used B&H for stuff whenever possible for the past few years. Less selection of general tech, but I have been flawlessly happy with the service, returns, shipping, etc.

First paragraph: correction, it was made by fucking other people. That isn’t a positive thing, I should point out (I mean I shouldn’t need to point it out, but here we are). Taking advantage of others for personal gain is a terrible thing. Going back a comment, the fact that you are proud of this amassed wealth is deplorable.
The rest of your comment isn’t worth the time to read it.
My guy it’s not just “the fans will be loud” it’s legitimately “the cooling is inadequate and the case traps heat in a cycle”. The hardware can be fine but if it’s all boiling at 100C it robs performance due to thermal throttling.
