NASCAR is just too damn long. If I want that punishment I’ll watch football or baseball.
Indy is where it’s at IMO. I do enjoy all racing and will watch other stuff too…. But if I had to pick one….

How will Mullvad removing port forwarding affect Unraid?
How does Mullvad removing port forwarding affect an Unraid setup using deluge-vpn container? I don’t access my server from outside my network and just use a basic binhex deluge-vpn docker setup....

I don’t access my server from outside my network and just use a basic binhex deluge-vpn docker setup. Any issues I’ll have here?
Currently out of town and won’t be back until after this change happens tomorrow. Curious what to expect when I'm back home.

Curious on some replies here. I always hear having bees go extinct would be horrible for us. Curious if that’s the worse?

It doesn't have anything to do with costing money or being a gamble. It has to do with share holders and profits. Period.
There are tons of games without micro-transactions that are amazing. You just have to choose to go that route.... which most AAA's do not since they want to milk more and more profits.
