If you have multiple TVs and are already considering a Jellyfin server, you could make it a Sunshine server as well. It's the open-source replacement for GeForce Now, with Moonlight as the client-side software

You are correct. I wish I had made that connection awhile ago. Thanks for the help!

Open up the Adguard home setup on YOUR_SERVER_IP:3000.

OP, could you please explain how to do this? Just typing in the command (yes, I'm entering in my IP address where instructed) results in the response 'command not found'

Is PrivateVPN the same as PrivateVPNAccess?

No, make sure you read the top response to that comment. Pulsewidth omitted the original post by the CEO. Not only that, this was Pulsewidth's first post. Not concrete proof of astroturfing, but it's pretty sus

Main downside of Mullvad is no port forwarding anymore

Care to explain what that is?

Better yet, Peertube

The newest fairphone doesn't have a US distributor yet. The last gen one does

Is there a specific page that lists sites/services that don't work with a VPN? Because I have at least 4 to report off the top of my head

That reminds me that sometimes I can feel people behind me from their body heat, even while outside. My main assumption is that I'm feeling the infrared that's emitted

I can pop my arms out of my shoulder joints, without using my hands, and back in again. Completely painless, but can sometimes do it by accident if I'm leaning against a doorframe etc, or pushing/pulling against something, so I have to be careful.

Have you been diagnosed with any hypermobility disorders? You might want to look into some and check with a doctor, because some of them have pretty nasty side effects since they lead to most connective tissue degenerating, even inside your heart

Same. Honestly, I'm fine with the limit since the more extreme versions of hypermobility tend to also come with big downsides

I can do this too!

Not so neat is my aparent genetic resistance to pain meds and anesthetics. Caused some "fun" in a hospital stay

Are you a redhead? Apparently that's a fairly common trait for them

I have hypermobility, but a mild form that just lets me bend my fingers back without any of the major problems associated with it.

My hands and feet are slightly adhesive when they're any wetter than bone dry, so you can hear a faint peeling sound when I walk barefoot in the house, even a little bit on short carpet. Think peeling scotch tape and reduce it by 50%.

I can also control the muscles responsible for equalizing the pressure in my ears, and that allows me to put them under a slight vacuum to slightly dampen loud noises.

I also have long toes. Not to the extent of a chimp, but I have successfully signed my name with them before (though even lower quality than signing with my left hand).

I also cannot cry from cutting onions. This sounds awesome until you're cutting 3 bags of onions in one go and you learn that the tears dilute the sulfuric acid that forms. That was a painful evening.

Are you only wanting to emulate games with PCSX2 or multiple different emulators? If the latter, have you tried the automated install process of Emulation Station or EmuDeck? I haven't dealt with PS2 games through it yet, but maybe the automated installers and configs will help?

Like a lot of stuff, I blame "popular science" tech youtubers like Linus Sebastien. He thought it was funny to lose his mind with a butter knife and stab at his steam deck and everyone pointed out how dangerous that was while memeing it around.

Stuff like this is why I can't watch LTT anymore. He's effectively become the PewDiePie or Logan Paul of tech and has become net negative for the industry.

Lately he did a video where he downloaded HoloISO as an analogue for a SteamOS 3.0 review (why would you review it when it's actively discouraged for download on non-Steam Deck hardware?). While he doesn't spend a ton of time on the problems (like connecting to printers), it's still negative exposure to things that will most likely be sorted out before release (if they're not already fixed within Valve).

That being said, I shouldn't expect much from the guy who did the equivalent of deleting System32 in an attempt to install Steam when all he had to do was open the app manager and click install

If the Steam Deck's airflow wasn't so delicately balanced, they could probably just skip the glue and add some foam or rubber patchs on the corners to prevent rattling. Then it'd be fairly easy to replace.
