You interact with communities/magazines on other instances from your home instance, so for that lemmy community, you'd go to https://kbin.social/m/newcommunities@lemmy.world or search for it from https://kbin.social/magazines

1. Yes its fine to watch on the same pc as the server
2. I believe Plex by default will occasionally scan your library, and there is an option to have plex watch for changes in the media folders so it knows when something is added or removed and update your library, so you would be able to go in and rename your files without even needing to tell plex to rescan, as it would do it automatically
3. There are 2 ways Plex can do this: the usual option is on the fly transcoding, meaning Plex will transcode the file in real time as you are watching it, this takes no storage space other than a bit of temporary space. The 2nd option is to pre-transcode other versions that plex calls optimized versions, these versions are saved to your storage. The optimized versions option is usually only used if your server doesn't have the power to transcode on the fly.

B2 storage is free for up to 10gb

I'm fairly certain hardware based 2fa has been around since the early 90s maybe even earlier. It's not the maturity that's the issue, as I'm fairly certain its significantly older than application based, but that it's extremely inconvenient for the user to have to buy a physical key and keep it safe

kbin and lemmy are different softwares, but they are both used for link aggregation and the 2 softwares use a common protocol, so they can talk to each other. So there are kbin servers and lemmy servers, and they are all interconnected.

So now we can take this post as an example:

You are a user on kbin.social

You posted this question on /m/nostupidquestions@lemmy.world - this means the community you posted on is actually hosted on lemmy.world

lemmy.world then tells other instances that its federated with that someone just made a post on /c/nostupidquestions on its instance. what kbin calls magazines are called communities on lemmy, hence the /c/ instead of the /m/.

kbin.social and all the other instances will then also show this post, even though it originally was created on a different instance

Isn't it just that the hot algorithm freezes and stops updating? https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3076
I'm on kbin and the hot sorting works and it's great for checking a few times a day since it actually updates

While IN THEORY true, testing has revealed that there is definitely a number of cables that say they are rated for a certain spec, but don't actually meet the spec, so the signal can fail or deteriorate despite everything being within the stated spec. I would personally stay away from the random no name cables that are weirdly super cheap, and just stick with the more well known brands like monoprice or infinite cables

Think about what happens to water if it's heated above 100C... it turns into steam! The more water there is in the plastic the more steam there will be, causing the various issues like bubbling. The release of steam also means some of the heat is not being absorbed by the filament, leading to temperature issues as it exits the nozzle

What the dough is made out of isn't relevant to it being a noodle or not though, unless you think rice noodles aren't noodles because they aren't made of semolina, eggs, and oil and aren't typically cooked by boiling but rather by soaking in hot water?

I also used plex for my kids for a while and for the longest time I simply put a couple HDDs into my personal PC and ran plex off my PC. It was more than adequate for just letting them watch whatever shows they wanted, no need to go crazy if you don't have the need for more!

To view only posts from your subscribed magazines, click the hamburger/3 lines icon next to your username on the top right and there is an option for subscribed.

As for how you know where you're about to click to, I believe there is a pr on the code git repo to add instance names to both the user and post so it's more obvious when doing cross instance interactions

And lastly fyi, kbin.social is an instance of the software called kbin

I would also test by connecting to the vpn and trying to go to a service's ip or ping an ip on the network behind the vpn from the browser. I use juice and ovpn on my router as well and it works fine, so its unlikely to be a juice specific problem
