Bloatware doesn’t necessarily mean it’s useless, but if even a reasonable percent of people don’t want or need it or shouldn’t be preinstalled. That’s bloatware.

Talk about mountains of projection …

I’m sure you could, biggest issues are exposing yourself to security threats. Most home networks are pretty secure due to the fact that in general using any router locks down your network pretty hard. So to access jellyfin remotely you would need to poke holes in your security.

Second issue is network bandwidth/throughput limitations. But if you are happy with your speeds then it’s just a matter of keeping your server up and running, especially if you are away from home for any length of time.

Personally I would really suggest a seed box of some description. It will really change your piracy life. I could never go back. And typically you can run plex/jellyfin/emby and serve to anyone you like without all the networking or maintenance or really security issues.

I’m not sure what it is, and I say this seriously, but you have a particularly ass shaped ass. And that’s a good thing.

Obviously a lot of people here disagree. But I think for most people the answer is unequivocally yes.

I guess if you think the bare minimum for friendship is someone you say "Hi" to at the water cooler every once in a while then no, you can have lots of friends aside from your partner. But for many people your friendship/relationship with your partner consumes most of your time (outside of work). Add on to that kids, and that's a wrap.

For most people that replaces the majority of the strong friendships that might have had when they were younger. Sure maybe they still have a couple of friends, hence the "less".

Actually now that I wrote that I realize the answer is no. People consolidate their friendships partly due to maturity, but also in large part because they find friendship/companionship in their partner. People don't get partners because they have less friends, they have less friends in part because they get a partner.
