I’m doing a Dexter rewatch over the holidays. Apparently there are a bunch of sequels/prequels now and I wanna refresh my memory before diving into those shows.;

Sorry, I need leatherbound pounds to go with my wallet. Next!

Voyager has that “found family” vibe that most of the shows don’t really.

Burn Notice. I dont know what it is but it’s like watching a version of “How It’s Made” from a fictional universe. All of the voiceovers about spycraft are bullshit but my brain just buys it for whatever reason.

Also, can’t belive I forgot this, but “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia”. A lot of that feeling, for me, is being carried by the music though.

That game came out when I happened to be really into the PBS Space Time series and I was learning as much as my brain could comprehend about general vs special relativity; which is all I can say without spoiling the game lol. So even if I could forget all of the story I don’t think it would have quite the same impact. It would still be something magic though I’m sure. I still enjoy watching others experience the game for the first time too.

I went back and tried to play the DLC and even that just wasn’t the same. I want to play them both blind.

Outer Wilds

That nvme drive just hanging out next to the power cord is giving me a type of anxiety I never knew I had, thanks.

A smallish (6U) rack mount that you can bolt into the wall. Even if they rip it down it’ll weigh a ton and have locked doors (with ventilation obvi),

OP already acknowledged in their edit that logging in with a local IP ‘fixed’ the issue.

Fuck, thanks for posting that. I’m usually happy to be wrong about something but this sucks.

That’s pretty fucked up. I’d be shootin off some angry emails to customer support. Sorry to hear that!

It means the same specific subnet. If you have multiple subnets (one for wired, one for wireless for example) it will also trigger that limitation unless you go in and manually tell it hey these are local.

lol crap, it’s the new arch!

You can absolutely run plex in a local only mode. You don’t sign it in to an account and then set your subnets in the local networks section like so. Or leave it blank if you have a standard flat home network.

I bought a plex lifetime pass for $100 over a decade ago and I never see ads like this. I only occasionally get the notice for plex pro week and stuff like that.

You should be able to. I have a wireguard tunnel to my parent’s house and when they watch plex it doesn’t go over the relay server (I can’t port forward on starlink).

Good explanation. I’m out in the boonies with Starlink for internet right now so no port forwarding for me. I paid like $100 for a plex lifetime pass 12 years ago or something so none of my family or friends even notice most of the time. HEVC encoding helps too (you can squeeze 720p through their relay server with it).

They’ve added commercial supported live channels like many other free services but yeah, it’s lacking compared to others. Pluto.tv is my go-to if I want to throw something on at a family members house or something like that. Owned by the networks, reasonably short ads, completely free. Too bad they didn’t figure that out 10 years ago lol.
