Romance novels are porn sure, but there’s usually at least some semblance of a reasonable story with actual characters and the sex is peppered in where it makes sense (even if that may be more than would be “reasonable” in a non-romance story.

Or record of Lodoss war, in case you have insomnia

Fast food doesn’t use brioche that I’m aware of

See I’m the opposite, folding clothes makes my back hurt from all the bending over but I don’t mind cleaning the kitchen and dishes even if I do procrastinate about it sometimes

Consoles in general, not just Nintendo

No, this is Nite Owl

The live action movie changed enough and got rid of some of the b-plots (which end up being important to the climax, which is why they changed the climax) so a more faithful adaptation would be worthwhile

Wake up guys new sol ring art just dropped

Each one negates specific types of magic and amplifies others in the area of effect of its breath, if combined there’s a color spray type effect

It tracks pretty well since it’s probably going to wrap into puss in boots’ return which was…some time? It’s kinda arbitrary, and doesn’t need to follow a previously established story. The most recent PiB story was surprisingly well written and executed, and a return to the more classic fairy tale/fantasy tropes instead of the “nursery rhyme/kids stories” focus of puss in boots but with the uplifted writing the franchise as a whole has seen over time would be nice

There’s a reason “furries run the internet” is only kinda a joke

Does the docker container have gpu access for transcoding?

Not just an official act, it’s explicitly a constitutional power which is given absolute immunity.

Bone conduction earphones will let you listen to music without occluding external sound.

Part of the reason she’s bothering to be that specific is for the “dammit ratcliffe” joke, it would be unnoteworthy except in a a”genetically predisposed to” context otherwise, but by being unnecessarily specific the cumulative effect of the joke gives a bigger payoff.

Essentially the “two nickels” joke but she’s allergic to nickel

Starting with a consumer NAS is a good spot, they come with a lot of upfront features that are designed to be easier to use for someone who isn’t already familiar with them. I have a synology and it did all the things you describe without issue (other than struggling with transcoding video in real time) and eventually graduated the heavier tasks like media and proper VM hosting to external secondhand mini PCs while still using the NAS as a network drive to store the data. The NAS itself includes docker and an easy to use repository browser that I use for things like pinhole or WLAN controller software, it has an onboard torrent client (which can use RSS and regex to automate downloads), and it has some other light hosting services, which it’s quite capable of. Starting with “just” the NAS and adding external devices as your use case shifts is always an option. Keep in mind that the best way of upgrading a NAS’ storage is leaving a bay open and upgrading disks one by one without having it do a “hard” rebuild from parity data, so 4 bays at least is a good starting point.

If you want to start with just an off the shelf NAS as an all in one device I would recommend making sure it either has or can take additional RAM (no such thing as too much), an NVME cache (more optional but nice) and an intel processor (quicksync transcoding, though the low end cpus will definitely still struggle with trying to turn 4K into 1080 for a stream). I’d be willing to bet most of the consumer NAS devices will all support docker at this point and have similar built in feature sets. Some of the newer models will support onboard 2.5gbe which is nice but probably unnecessary for a single user or family.

External access would be more of a job for your router/firewall which would use PAT to forward connections to your internal network, so that’s outside the scope of your NAS unless you’re building a true all in one box that acts as the central hub of your entire home network.
