Denmark
Artist Title Format Released Genre Link Annika Aakjær Esthers Orkester Album 2/6/22 Singer songwriter Spotify Bbybites Don't Care… (But I Do) EP 10/6/22 Pop Spotify ICEKIID Ingen Roser Uden Torne Album 3/6/22 Hip hop Spotify Commentary: Quite the variety of styles with this month's Danish NMN contingent. It's definitely Bbybites who has caught the ears though. Rapper Martha Maj Hauptmann brings the attitude with her refreshing mix of pop and hip hop. Track “Whatever“ from her latest EP is on rotation.
Finland
Artist Title Format Released Genre Link DANTCHEV:DOMAIN The Lions We Are Album 1/6/22 Folk Bandcamp IANAI Sunir Album 10/6/22 Folk Bandcamp Commentary: IANAI's debut album really does defy genre classification, with its epic soundscapes influenced by folk music from across the globe. The talent found on “Sunir” is nothing to be sniffed at either, with guest appearances from HIM, Sisters of Mercy and Massive Attack to name a few.
Iceland
Artist Title Format Released Genre Link Fjara Surfdays EP 10/6/22 Surf rock Spotify Hugrún Post-Apocalyptic Love Songs EP 23/6/22 Indie pop Spotify Una Torfa Flækt Og Týnd Og Einmana EP 10/6/22 Singer songwriter Spotify Commentary: This might become my new obsession. After unexpectedly discovering some Finnish surf rock last month, this month it's the turn of Iceland. Check out the acoustic title track from Fjara – whose name translates to beach/shore – on their brand-new EP “Surfdays”.
Norway
Artist Title Format Released Genre Link Jorn Over The Horizon Radar Album 17/6/22 Hard rock href+ Khold Svartsyn Album 24/6/22 Black metal href+ Commentary: Jørn Lande is back with a new studio album, five years since 2017's “Life On Death Road”. Where “Over The Horizon Radar“ lacks in innovation or even boundary pushing, it makes up for in familiar power vocals and eleven solid melodic metal songs.
Sweden

So I've seen some posts here and elsewhere about people making a home NAS setup, using it as a media server with jellyfin/plex/.arr to set up media + keep files/passwords/photos, and then managing it remotely. That sounds incredibly cool.
I also did some cursory searching that one way to do things without messing with port-forwarding is to look into Tailscale to network remotely.
I want to try this for my parents and I, especially since I will be training abroad for several years while they will be based in Asia.
The obvious problem is I don't have any experience with the process or even networking in general. I also do not know how to code in any capacity. I am in a decidedly non-tech field of work.
I've been googling but want to know if this a feasible idea at my skill level? Is this work for hobbyists or those in the professional field of computing? Am I going to potentially shoot myself security-wise if i try this? Should experiment with something smaller-scale first?
Preliminary "Research":
- Watched Practical Networking on youtube to see what I was getting into (understood... lets say 45% of what he was talking about)
- Plan to get a synology NAS with minimum 4 drive bays (Supposedly this is easiest for beginners?)
- Connect to network via tailscale
- Get a vpn
- Install docker
- Install apps
- Connect it to PCs and smart tv at my parent's home in Asia
- ???
- Maintain it from Europe?
Any advice on how to start or any guides to recommend? (most of what I've found is 2021 or earlier so I am unsure if a lot's changed since then)

US abortion bans are going to hit us worse than we think

One thing about the bans on abortion that no one is talking about but is going to affect absolutely everyone is the current labor shortage we're experiencing in this country. From logistics to food service to retail and beyond, women are part of the workforce in the United States. Once women start being forced to carry to term and give birth in numbers not seen in half a century, those women will be removed from the labor pool. That means less people in every work field in a time when we're already seeing a shortage of workers. That's only going to get worse. Add to that the reduction in salaries and rise in expenses for basic necessities (baby food, diapers, baby clothes) and that's money taken out of most sectors of the economy.
We are headed for a massive labor shortage and a massive hit to an economy already weakened by a major pandemic. With this one ruling, the economic backbone of the American infrastructure may be dramatically weakened, and the number of jobs being filled are going to plummet.
This is all on their heads, and it isn't going to be pretty.
