They sorta did, just in a different thread. https://forums.plex.tv/t/new-artwork-provider/867786/6

It's Gracenote.

Per the linked thread, this is already rolling out but requires a refresh of metadata for it to actually pull in from the new source, so if you don't periodically refresh metadata, nothing will change. Additionally, any locked field (i.e. if you've changed it manually before) won't be updated, so any manually assigned posters will remain the same.

I've already done the refresh on my library and I think I only had 2 or 3 posters that I really didn't like and overall I actually prefer the new source. Not all changes are necessarily bad changes...

I went from an i5-7600K to an i5-13600K and the performance improvement has been worth every penny. Obviously a bit of a different upgrade than what you asked so it's hard for me to say if it's worth it in your case.

That being said the significant upgrade in core count has helped a ton, I usually have around 30 docker containers running and haven't had any performance issues, previously my whole server would lock up when any docker ran an intensive process unless I pinned cores for unraid itself. Ive also seen a huge improvement with transcoding due to the improved iGPU but I think that was the same one in the 12th gen so you probably wouldn't see value there.

Most professions where action/inaction can result in damages will have similar insurance. Some insurance firms even specialize in coverage for professionals.

If your profession has an association or similar group, they should be able to help you find those firms if they exist.

Totally agree on that point. I took it more to mean it could be fatal if someone went to refill a jar of vinegar with bleach (or vice versa) since mixing the two creates chlorine gas which can be fatal.

Vinegar can be a very effective cleaning agent though, it's not just used for food.

I switched over to TickTick when Todoist suddenly changed their pricing model a few years ago. I don't remember the specifics of what happened but I remember being very frustrated with the sudden changes as it would've required me to change my whole system.

I've been very happy with TickTick since then and would strongly recommend OP checks it out to see if it fits their needs.

Highly recommend cases by Fractal.

For self hosting I'd recommend either one of the Meshify 2 or Define 7, depending on local price and your specific needs. I personally went with the Meshify 2 XL and was blown away by the quality of the case. It's built well and allows for a variety of configurations. It also makes maintenance very easy as the filters and side panels can all be removed without any tool to handle dust build up.

Seconding the recommendation for FreshRSS, it's the one I ended up hosting when I looked into this a while back and it's been really great. Takes a minute to get everything setup, especially if you want to have different settings for different types of feeds, but once it's all set it's perfect (for my needs at least).

I've also got it setup with my domain so I can access the feed from anywhere and that's been one of my favourite features.

As much as I love the projects I'm able to make with my Cricut, I know I won't be getting another one when it eventually dies. Cricut's software and approach to the customers is so awful.

Wish I'd heard about Silhouette before getting my machine but I've definitely learned my lesson now.

I believe they were answering your questions in order. So no you didn't play the game wrong or miss a tutorial.

Reddit was such a different website back then, it's crazy to look back on compared to what it is now.
