Seriously, this is the way. I did this too in about 15 mins. Also setup a simple rule to allow the vlan to reach my homeserver in a separate vlan specifically on Plex and Jellyfin ports. That’s it. They cant phone home. You still enjoy your own media.
The Phatom Menace hits sooo much differently if you’ve read the books to fill in a lot of gaps that the movie itself doesn’t take time to explain. I would say AotC and RotS don’t suffer from this as much, but The Phantom Menace does stand out in this regard.

That’s the monkey from Better Man
I think it’s possible to separate creator from work.
Not when it comes to consumerism. By consuming their product you are directly supporting that creator. Installing omarchy boosts their numbers which attracts more users. We could all just not do that and not support nazis
if you’re up for self-hosting, I generally buy music from Bandcamp or Qobuz. It sits on my home server running Navidrome, and connected to my tailnet. I stream to my phone, tablet, etc. on the go using Tailscale and a subsonic client.
it was about a weekends worth of setup to get in a good spot. couple years ago I’d have said consider setting up your local music library in Plex, get a plex pass, then use Plexamp. But with the pricing changes it’s nowhere near really worth using unless you already have a plex lifetime pass.
Exercise. Partly because I’ve gotten into a sport, but I also just enjoy seeing myself get into better shape even though I’m getting older. Things that felt physically impossible to do 90 days ago feel like a breeze now. Being at my desk for 8 -12 hours out of the day is way more exhausting than spending 2 - 3 hours at the gym.
3 rep tracking is better than 2 which is miles above 1 in my opinion. I got the Instinct 1 as a gift during the pandemic and hardly used it because it would drop reps too often to even be useful at the gym. The Instinct 2 was a decent upgrade for this in particular, but I would say the HR monitor in the Instinct 1 seemed slightly more accurate than the Instinct 2’s. I’m really happy with the Instinct 3 though. It seems like Garmin has addressed all my own complaints about the Instinct 2.
As for sweat, buddy I’m right there with you. I have to peel clothes off after every session but both the 2 and 3 don’t seem fazed by my sweaty arms. I do try to tighten my band a notch before each session to get accurate HR and that seems to help a lot. My only advice is that if you’re going for the 3 just grab the AMOLED version unless you’re outside A LOT. I originally got the Solar and it just would not hold a charge well even if I did frequent hikes. Returned it and swapped for the AMOLED and it’s generally holding a charge for me for ~ 18d with Pulse Ox turned off. No real complaints with the 3 just that I liked the displays on the 1 and 2s more than the colorful display of the 3, but functionality-wise it’s a step above both of them
I use both a Garmin Instinct 3 (AMOLED) and a Garmin Instinct 2. When I bought them I added ~ 25 Workouts I do normally. After that I paired it up with GadgetBridge. I use it to track my gym activities and sleep patterns. I hardly ever use the GPS feature, but sometimes I use it when I’m hiking.
Current rotation looks like
All of them are sub 20GB, heck they might all even be sub 10 GB
For a while it was Elite Dangerous. Reached triple Elite, then eventually Odyssey drops and I stopped playing. After Elite was Baldurs Gate 3. Bg3 was the fastest 1000+ hours I’ve ever dropped in a video game
Hope your Friday is read-only. Because no one wants to ship code changes on a Friday. (No one will be there on the weekend to babysit changes)
