There are several things like that in Fedora, which is already a good reason not to recommend it to first timers. They most likely won't know or care about nonfree codecs, they will just see a broken machine. Linux Mint understands that as a use case and has a "magic make it work" checkbox during install.
That all being said, I run Nobara and love it, but i wouldn't recommend it for new people.
I don't have a ton of faith in tplink to continue to support omada over the long term. They've also been somewhat slow to fix security problems in the past. For the same price as the omada ap you can get unifi u6 lites.
You can still run your own controller and i can vouch thaf a couple of them can cover an entire moderately sized house. I run 2 at home with pfsense on an ewaste tier dell optiplex and have for years without trouble.
I've never messed with opnsense but I assume it works just as well.
Also what type of connection are you getting from your ISP? If its a fiber connection you may be able to buy an SFP network card and replace the modem altogether.
You are correct that this is technically in code and would protect against shock hazards in a neutral error situation but you also get the opportunity for the outlet to pop during the day when nobody is home and the battery to die.
We had a situation in our old house where someone who was technically correct but didn't think it through had a gfci outlet upstream of the refrigerator outlet. Thankfully it popped while someone was home and we got everything corrected before we lost everything in the fridge.
AFAIK you should be able to do most of your cleaning with alcohol and compressed air. Its not normally difficult to get to the parts you need to clean if you remove the top cover. (Unplugged of course.) If you're getting a good image already and the video isn't having a bunch of audio dropouts you're probably ok for the time being. Most likely the cleaner tapes would work but I personally am always nervous to put a non-standard item into an old mechanical device that you may or may not ever find parts for again.
If you're wanting to keep this up, looking term its definitely worth seeking out the service manual for your vcr model if you can find it.
The other thing to make sure of is your capture settings. The deinterlacing algorithm can make a pretty significant difference.
After its captured there are a lot of AI "improvements" that can be made that will manufacture detail. Topaz AI for windows is kind of the gold standard at the moment but there's an open source project called video2x that might also work. Both would require a fairly decent gpu.
This is the concept of an episode of Nathan For You. Well, its a part of an episode about making real a fake story so he doesn't get "A Million Little Pieces"-ed. Its a great show.
Does it count if i used to work in IT?
I still work in IT but I used to too.
In my youth I worked at a 24 hour gas station/restaurant for 2 weeks. It was robbed twice (not while i was there) and someone hit and ran and smashed up my car all in 2 weeks. But i did get unlimited coffee, pop and donuts (after 6pm) so overall I'd give it a 3/5.
Ladder logic?
The Horror, the horror.
If you say it loud enough you'll almost sound precocious.
EXTREME WARNING if you have something important to do today. The above link is to TV Tropes. It's too late for me, but you still have a chance to be productive today!
Hello, I would like to complain that filling out a form to complain is exactly the kind of thing that Gene Roddenberry would be against so I refuse to do it. /s
Jellico did nothing wrong. His great great great great grandfather in Detroit however.....
Checks to see what serverless services are running on?

Great video. Thanks for the recommendation. Montel announcing the Son of Beast at that event was hilarious.
I remember having this book as a kid too. I was obsessed. Lol.
That's super interesting. I remember hearing rumors about the low quality wood but i didn't know it was true.
As for the Beast yeah it definitely feels slower but its probably just because I was so used to the way it was before. I even noticed the roaring sound in the tunnel being quieter which i guess could be from better wheels or a smoother track rather than lack of speed.
If i had to guess it was maybe 2006. I think i rode it once with the loop and once without and didn't like it either time. But that was just me. Its been a long time but i remember it feeling like the train poked me right under the shoulder blade.
I may have liked it if i rode it more than twice but i hurt myself the first ride and never really wanted to go again.
Also i cant believe that it isn't any slower especially the final part with the 2 tunnels back to back. It feels so much slower.
My favorite roller coaster of all time was The Beast at Kings Island in Ohio. I've easily ridden it in the 3 digits.
Around 2013 or so they added additional braking to 2 parts of the ride where you used to blast through a huge helix and get pinned into your seat. One of the parts was at the end and it ruined my favorite part of the ride.
Still love The Beast but it will always be a lesser version of what I rode as a kid.
I also remember hurting my back on the Son of Beast. That was back when it had the loop. In my opinion the loop was the only good part of that ride.
I also got to ride the Diamondback on opening day. I still have my first rider tshirt i got that day.
Ill bet Toilet Truck and Baby Duff will be there in no time.
They would most likely still have to disable secure boot.
