Ah thanks. So I should research whether LMDE is less resource intensive than the other versions of Mint. Or just go for it.

I was hoping to stick with Mint. Maybe the non Cinnamon ones would run better I was thinking.

Sorry about that, it’s some issue with adware in that version of the installer (that doesn’t have to be installed). Their forum has a post about this problem. I edited my reply to direct to the “adware free” installer: https://jdownloader.org/jdownloader2

I use EDIT: jdownloader2 for YouTube video/audio. It may be more feature packed, but it’s easy enough once you’re comfortable with the GUI.

Yes, my first vaccine was Pfizer and second was Moderna, which caused heart issues. I went to a heart specialist and was diagnosed with pericarditis from the vaccine. It took awhile for symptoms to improve (pain, shortness of breath etc.). I feel lucky though.

An unusual amount of people had severe symptoms in our area after the Moderna vaccine. Healthy people in their 30s for the most part. Our electrician had a heart attack and a few people died. Needless to say I didn’t go for a third. We know a guy who technically died from it, but he was revived - they got his heart going.

Is this what installs by default? I just installed Cinnamon on my windows laptop and am not sure what this is all about. Anyway I was very impressed with it might even switch from OCLP/MacOS on my aging Macs.

I got teased like I think I still have PTSD. They just weren’t cool or too nerdy in my hometown. Stuff like Motley Crüe and Poison and Guns N’ Roses. That’s where it was at, which wasn’t my thing. I was into Yes and Tull and Crimson.

Rush. The band. Almost nobody in my high school liked them. In the 80s even.

I mean, Jellyfin people are always talking about reverse proxies and whatnot. That’s what I’ve been assuming isn’t necessary for Plex. I’m under the impression Plex is safer by default.

Oh, so I should do some Googling and find some options. I do have a VPN service but I don’t usually keep it on.

Does Plex need users to install / setup security things for streaming safely over the internet? I see this discussed a lot on Jellyfin forums. But the setup is too complicated for me.

I’ve also just started using Plexamp. Am considering the lifetime subscription to get bit perfect playback.

Startpage.com I am trying (again). I prefer the Google results without the privacy hit.

Harmony remote control. Even controls my air conditioner.

Garlic press is my second choice. 😎
