triptrapper OP , to Selfhosted in Plex remote access - low quality even with gigabit fiber

These are excellent ideas to test where the bottleneck is. Thank you very much.

Thank you for this. I'll check my port forwarding on my router (Google Nest WiFi).

Ah, Plex suggested I might be double-natted. Since fiber doesn't need a modem (from my understanding) I have: fiber cable to box, box Ethernet to router, router ethernet to NAS. Maybe it would be better if I did box directly to NAS? Or would that put it on a separate network? I'll look into your double-nat solution. Thank you.

I tested between 800-900Mbps UP, closer to a full gig down.

These are great options. Thanks so much for your help.

A friend who worked at Meta said pretty concisely, "You get rewarded for coming up with something new, not improving something old."

Check out the story of John Chau. He spent a year planning and preparing to be the first missionary to visit the North Sentinelese, a virtually uncontacted people. During his first couple (illegal) attempts, they shot arrows at him. He visited again and they killed him.

triptrapper , to Ask Lemmy in Suggestion for Business Podcast?

Ah, I missed that in your original post. TBH it's not one I would put on myself, but my partner likes it and some of the episodes have actually been super interesting. Specifically I remember the James Dyson episode being good. But I agree about your post calling it a 50-minute promo. The ads get super annoying, but the stories are good.

Those are the ones!

triptrapper , to World News in Switzerland’s Nemo is first nonbinary singer to win Eurovision Song Contest

You can't speculate about someone else's identity. If Conchita identifies themselves as nonbinary, then they're nonbinary. (I've never heard of this person, so I don't know if they do or not.) Identifying as NB is like saying, "I see the two options that society is offering me, and neither of them neatly describe how I feel inside." Some cultures refer to a nonbinary "third gender" while others see that as just creating another box to limit people's options for how they identify and express themselves.

It's okay if you think that drag queens could be referred to as NB, but they don't fit the typical definition.

I got a set of metal picks from Harbor Freight for like 3 bucks. They're similar to the pick tool that a dental hygienist uses. I use these things nearly every day to scrape stuff out of a crevice, retrieve something out of a narrow hole, pull stuff out of a tube or straw, precision clean corners of things, etc. I love them.

How I Built This is a good one. It's an NPR podcast where they interview successful entrepreneurs and inventors about how they started their companies, what they would have done differently, etc.

triptrapper , to science in What's your opinion on Andrew Huberman's podcast?

I'm upvoting you not because I'm a fan of Huberman. I listened to half an episode and it didn't grab me. I'm upvoting because you're asking sincere questions and so far (only 2 responses) you haven't gotten an answer.

triptrapper , to Ask Lemmy in What do you do to cheer yourself up ?

Talk to a stranger. At the park, at the bus stop, at the dog park. Doesn't matter what we talk about, it just feels good to connect and it takes my mind off my own bullshit.
