I wouldn't call Ubiquiti corporate level, it's more prosumer. I've seen mixed bag reviews on their more recent stuff, I currently use their wifi APs and home and they work brilliantly for that purpose, but I also have network cabling throughout the house and a server cupboard with several NAS units in it, so... πŸ˜‚ They do have all in one routers but typically their stuff is better when you get the stuff that does one thing well (like their APs or their managed switches). That does tend to be overkill for most people though where a mesh setup or even a single Wifi router will suffice.

I've also had a lot of luck with TP-Link stuff in the past, both in their stock configurations and also reflashing some routers with OpenWRT (custom firmware), so they're usually a solid recommendation in my opinion.

Better than me, I only managed 28/50 πŸ˜… Once the answers came up I did know the rest, but could I think of them when doing the quiz? Not a chance.

The fact that clicking the link takes you to a 404 page definitely helps with the whole "accidentally" bit.

Anyone know if the story turned out to be false and got deleted or if it's just a dud link?

Oooh, nice, thanks for the tip! That sounds like a great plan for a lazy Saturday afternoon 😊

Okay, now I need to watch The Fifth Element again.

If you enjoy action thrillers, try Predestination with Ethan Hawk.

Or get Mattel to pay up for them to have a SFW landing page for a set period of time that redirects to the correct website. If a kid is going to blindly enter a website into their computer they'll probably click the colourful Wicked picture on the home page and not scroll any further to the less SFW content.

Probably could make more money from that than any Wicked themed porn.

Have a look through the tools section on the Megathread in the pinned post. For this specific use case you're probably going to be wanting to look at tools like Sonarr (for TV shows), Radarr (for movies), some form of torrent client that those tools support (Transmission for example), and depending on what your tracker supports, possibly something like Jackett to provide a bridge between your tracker and your downloader tool.

The benefit of this kind of setup is it's very easy to add Usenet into the mix if you choose to.

There's some extra steps needed if you run it directly on the Mac but you can also do something like run Docker on the Mac and run those tools within Docker instead.

I'm pretty sure it's possible to integrate something like Overseerr (which is a web frontend for handing requests for new content) into the Plex watch list meaning you could add a show to your watch list in Plex, Overseerr would pick that up, send it to Sonarr or Radarr depending on the type of content it is, which would then do a search on your tracker for the content, send the torrent to your torrent client, and then when it finishes downloading automatically import it into Plex.

Sunk cost fallacy is probably the most obvious one that springs to mind. Not unlike gambling in a sense, people feel they just need one big payout to win it all back and then some, so they keep betting, hoping that this time things will go in their favour.

I always knew it as zee growing up. It worked in the rhyme.

"W, X, Y and Zee, now I know my A B Cs, next time won't you sing with me" (that last line is probably a separate argument on its own πŸ˜‚).

Then Dragon Ball Z hit Australian TV and it was done after that.

In my defence, I felt fine πŸ˜‚ It's just I have a memory gap where one minute I was sitting up, and the next I was staring at the roof with Mum panicking nearby. So don't know what happened but it just didn't go well.

I've had to do blood tests since then and they generally go okay as long as they can find a vein, but haven't donated since that happened.

Pretty sure I'm O+, I've got that basic blood. But I got blacklisted when I was younger from donating, first time I went in I managed to get knocked out and go into full convulsions (unfortunately was there with my mum and it traumatised her for a bit afterwards πŸ˜…). Few weeks later I got a letter basically telling me thank you for coming but please don't come again.
