Are you me? I have been off of Twitter and Facebook for years now. Reddit is dead to me. YouTube seems like it’s heading in the shitter. I’ve also been playing more guitar lately too! I’m still early on, I think I’m progressing nicely but I’m firmly in the “novice” stage. Take it from someone who didn’t exercise at all before, you’ll do yourself great even taking a nice walk for 20-30 minutes every day possible. It gets easier everyday, and they become enjoyable.
Doctor Who and Warframe. Interesting combo, I think it could work.
Yep you do and some may argue that, depending on how you obtain that content, it’s even easier than the setup of the NAS and Plex itself.
Well, I mean on those vendor NASes it’s pretty much just chuck in a hard drive or two, follow prompts for setup, install the Plex app from said vendor’s app marketplace, make a login, and add your content to the specific TV, Music, or Movie folders…Admittedly this doesn’t get you setup with running Plex outside the network, but as a basic setup it’s fairly easy.
I’m also confident someone would mess those instructions up, but if you even understand what self hosting is I’m fairy confident someone could follow the above instructions to add their content. Obtaining content is a different story, but if you already have your content it is easy.
They’re just driving us to self hosted content quicker. Honestly if you can afford a NAS like a Synology or an Asustor, setting up Plex is so easy.

I wanted to chime in and say that no one should sleep on Risk of Rain 2, it’s a fantastic game and easily worth the $12.49. Nice list you put together!
It depends on your use case. If you’re always buying the newest games it ends up being more expensive since the games cost the same at launch and a comparable PC will always cost more than a console. But if you have a big backlog of old games you still like to play, take advantage of pc sales (being a smart shopper, buy game keys from other storefronts, don’t need every need game you want at or near launch), like to mod, and need a computer that is powerful for other reasons already then there’s a reduction of cost with all of that plus additional benefits for continuing to play on PC as you upgrade.
I would personally get off the platform if you are able to recuperate your costs. We don’t have 100% confirmation that the microcode patches will fix the issue, as they won’t be released until mid-august. May as well wait until the issue is fixed or spend your money on a platform that is more solid.
