I opted out by just writing gdpr in the reason box. Nothing else, just gdpr. It got accepted.

Any keyboard you want really. Most of the time spent coding is thinking not typing.

Thank you, this is my viewpoint exactly. We are exploited by both but one is after money, the other is a threat.

My QNAP NAS drive. As well as storing all my media I also have various containers running all sorts... My Home Assistant instance, MQTT broker, ESPHome, zigbee2mqtt, Frigate, and Emby to name a few. It does so much for something so small and cheap to run.

No...Keema is the right choice

Sorry I don't mean to come across like that. I just always assumed these types of posts were like Horoscopes and designed to contain elements so the majority of people reading it would go 'oh wow that describes me'. Reading the responses I'm realising that this assumption may well be completely wrong and I should re-evaluate.

There are definitely mosquitos in the UK. They piss me off every summer.

In the UK so no insurance to worry about. I'm actually considering it based on the consistency of the responses from multiple people.

You seem to be forgetting that places with socialised health care also have private healthcare and private insurance available so it's the best of both worlds. Everyone can get treated regardless, but you can also go 'premium' if desired.

I used to be excited to upgrade my phone every year because it was during a period of innovation. Now I just have a pay as you go SIM and whenever needed buy a midrange phone outright and use it until it dies.

Yep I know. I just found it to be poorer quality. Emby is much more polished.

I use my phone but it is connected to the car so it displays on the bigger screen. Much easier than a little phone screen in a cradle.

I only use frigate on a single camera and it's ok. If I was doing more then my NAS supports an M2 coral. Would have bought one but there was a massive waiting list and now I've lost interest.

Yep was there 12-13 years and haven't been back since sync stopped working.

The girl doesn't look 40, but I'm 42 and the guy looks older than me.

Definitely not trolling no. My comments are genuinely how I am but I don't think that because I put things off until the last minute that it's anything out of the ordinary. I am actually now a bit curious because more than one person is saying the same thing but I'm not going to self diagnose based on comments on the internet.

Honestly it just works and works well. I had all sorts of issues with Plex with subtitles not working and weird transcoding issues where red blocks would randomly appear. Also I found Plex kinda ugly tbh. I tried Jellyfin and it seemed a bit 'hacky' but this was a few years ago so maybe it's improved but I currently have no reason to try it again. If you're using Plex/Jellyfin/Emby you are most likely pirating media so worrying about GPL violations is probably not top of the list.

Another 'Woo Emby' here!

No, I've just always thought that I am a bit lazy or self absorbed and only want to do the fun things. I do give through periods where I make an effort to correct it but it never sticks.

I am genuinely not trolling although I have no way of proving it.

As someone in their 40s I agree

Try Emby. It's a more polished Jellyfin although it's not FOSS I find it much better than Plex

Why am I lost? And yes the particular scenario in this post is a regular occurrence. No matter how much time I have I will always put things off until the point where if I don't do it now I won't have time. Then I'll try and start it but the up doing something more interesting and thinking of excuses to get away with not finishing what I was supposed to. It's always something easy too and when I finally do it I tell myself that's next time I'll keep on top of it but never do.

I think these are normal steps for a variety of people. I'm pretty sure I'm not ADHD but every time one of these style posts pops up listing traits or supposed ADHD defining behaviour they are always relatable. Most likely explanation is these posts are nothing to do with ADHD and are actually designed to just make you feel special when you see that these apply to you so you interact with them, share them, and they spread to others and it repeats and repeats and repeats...

People should try emby instead. I find it the best of the 3 main contenders.
