VLC media player is always there for you. Windows Video can't open a .mov file? VLC. Want to watch a ripped DVD? VLC. Music, images, file conversions, streaming, audio, subtitles? VLC.

And you can get it on every device you need.

Get a new computer and want to run with the defaults for a bit? That's fine, but who do you always go back to? VLC doesn't care if you run with another program for a while. Not in the sense that it doesn't care about you, but more it knows you need space to try something new sometimes, and it's always ready for you to come back.

VLC also never asks anything of you. No dontations, no signups, maybe it needs an update every now and then, that's all.

VLC is just always there. It thinks it's in the background, but I notice its hard work. VLC is like the Garrus of media players. It was always there for you, and when you get your heart broken by another program, it's still there. Because it was always there for you.

In so many words, what I'm trying to say is; I want to ***** that traffic cone **** my *****.

I've got to see you moving fast, see you come my way See the dreams, I hope they last, never fade away Gotta see the lights above, make it loud tonight Gotta set it all afire, set it all alight See the flashing lights, hear the thunder roar I am going to set you all alight Gotta make it, man, I ain't got a choice Gotta fill this hall tonight Helpless Helpless Helpless Helpless

And we open up your mind, open up your purse Never, never, never gonna lose it take it all away, never give an inch Gotta make a mint, gotta make a million you got it wrong Some long-time friend gonna lose it, in the end, who is a fool? Seagull, give it all away Stay a bird, stay a man, stay a ghost, stay what you wanna be

The delivery driver just dropped it off at the neighbour's place across the road.

There will be no one around for at least 15 minutes. I could take that dirty little package right there on the lawn.

A lot of you people say 'fuck Amazon', but how many of you are out there on the street doing praxis?

Uh, no buddy.

I've got a list of distros up in front of me and I don't see their name anywhere.

And it's spelt BSD, too. By the way.

She's got the tramp stamp and everything. She's literally begging for it.

People post E.V.E. and no one bats an eye. Cars are real!

I picked up an old optiplex I'm trying to use as a NAS and do other things with. Initially I put Debian on there but felt like I was running into too many problems with things like power management, remot desktop, Docker, and mounting drives.

So I put Openmediavault on there and it's working now. But what are some of the best ways to get the most out of it?

Can I do most things through the browser interface, or should I remote into it to install things?

How easily can I mount it as a network drive to other computers? I still have a Windows PC so I'd like to access it from there too if possible.

And what's the best way to get other services running on it? I'm thinking of how it's possible to set up torrenting software and control it with a remote app from your phone. (For managing and sharing my distros, of course).

Happy to hear any feedback on what people do with OMV, or their setups for a NAS in general. This is more of a tinkering computer to get me more familiar with networks and Linux.
