Purchasing my first home, apparently all info regarding the sale is public information. Companies scrape or buy this data and then spam your mailbox with various extra services. In my case, it was mortgage premium insurance or something like that. Anyways, the letter I received in the mail went something like this: “You forgot something important regarding your home purchase”. I don’t remember the exact words, but it was something like that.

I’m a first time home buyer and I am trying to stay on top of things. Of course, because they are able to get all the information regarding the sale. It looks legit, they have my name, address, loan number, loan amount, the bank serving the loan and everything. I call to make sure everything is alright and fortunately they didn’t answer. I took the extra time to look up what mortgage premium insurance even was and that is how I came across the fact that it may be a scam.

Anyways, they call me back eventually and by this time I am on to them. I ask some questions regarding their company and the entire time they keep repeating the name of the bank that is serving my loan, but refuse to give me the name of their company. After a bit more back and forth they finally let it slip that they are from some unrelated insurance company to which I decline their offer. I wanted to curse them out, but I just wasn’t raised that way.

Edit: A lot of people don’t take online privacy seriously. Usually going whats the harm. I was never really comfortable with it to the point of apathy, but I was a bit lax at times. This experience made me find out first hand what the harm of everyone having access to your data is.

Thanks for the history lesson. Honestly every one of those different names and translations is pretty good too.

Bruh, Mozart’s whole ass name was cool as hell. Not just his last name. This man wins hands down.

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

Not too difficult. Yeah just set it up and point at the existing folder with all the media and let it go to work. It wasn’t my first time experimenting with the both of them and yes you can run both at the same time. I did run both at one point in the past before settling on plex. I just had to download jellyfin and set it back up. One thing that I recommend doing with the both of them is to make sure that both of them only have read access to the actual media. Do this at the OS level. That way there are no accidents that effect the actual media on disk.

I just made the switch over this.

The toilet seat argument with women. I understand that the toilet seat should be let down, but if I forget. There is no way in hell you should fall in. Most of the time I don’t just let the seat down, but also the lid. No complaints there. How the hell is that any different? Either way you have to look first.
