Do the buildings have carbon monoxide detectors? Are they old buildings with old electrical systems? You said it's a ski resort, so I'd expect some banging and weird noises as the temperature of the buildings fluctuate. Portable electric/magnetic field detectors exist. Maybe portable carbon monoxide detectors too. These things can be measureable and often feel like ghosts. Rule them out. Then maybe introduce yourself to the lifeless guests and they'll leave you alone. If none of that pans out. Read Stephen King's The Shining. Real life is rarely as scary as Stephen King.

Yeah, good food isn't trivial to find when you travel. I'm empathetic to that frustration. But judging all bread based on the cheapest abundant and easy to find bread a foreigner can find without any apparent effort seems like a mistake to me. I certainly wouldn't judge all Italian food by what I found in my hotel in Venice. I wouldn't judge NY bagels by what I found during my layover at La Guardia. And I wouldn't judge an entire countries bread based on what I found in the grocery store.

Lidarr. Mostly works just like the others. Seems best equipped to grab full album or discography collections. It can grab search queries from a number of other sources, so that you could (as an example) add a song to a certain Spotify playlist and Lidarr would check that list and add the song/album/artist per your settings.

1. Good bread is expensive or made yourself.

2. It seems pretty common for travelers to lament the lack of good bread like at home. Bread basically a living organism that is ultra local. Good bread like at home really only exists at home. Local water, temperature, humidity, and other environmental factors seem to play a big part.

Ask anyone from New York or New Jersey about getting a good pizza or bagel in another state. It doesn't matter who makes it or if they're using the exact same recipe, perfect bread can evidently not be replicated outside the region. There is even a bagel company in south Florida, catering to snowbirds turned transplants, that claims to use water from that region to make their bagels.

I get this by self-hosting. You can try Plex, Jellyfin, some complex tunneled MPD setup. I'm sure there are other ways.

1. I pay artists as directly as possible.

2. Anything in any format that I can find and record is available.

3. & 4. I can choose the appropriate hosting method based on context. Playing on my phone or through a smart speaker? PlexAmp app is very polished and makes navigating a large library mostly painless. Plex mobile app can work in offline mode too if you download before loosing Internet. Playing on another Linux machine, maybe a headless one connected to the stereo? I setup an NFS share and/or use MPD. There are android apps to remote control an MPD server that's directly connected to a sound system too.

I don't think a service will ever be able to match what I can do with self-hosting. I'm not even very good at it or put that much effort into it anymore. Other people have done so much more and there are some crazy home brew setups out there.

Oh, so you're just trolling then, because I was answering honestly and you were asking in bad faith to be a troll.

The Stonewall riots is a good place to start your history studies on the matter.

Counterpoint: It's a salad.

What about Kirk? We see his Father and Mother in the Kelvin timeline. His brother along with wife and child in TOS and SNW. Despite them not marrying, I think that Carol Marcus and James Marcus still count as family. We also see Admiral Marcus, Carol's father. Also Kirk did briefly have another wife, Miramanee, and unborn child. They got stoned to death before the episode ended and maybe the unborn child doesn't count as seen.

Downloading from YouTube or Spotify is still piracy. And those sources offer mostly shit quality far removed from the artist's intent.

Believe it of not, there are things that aren't on Spotify, YouTube, TIDAL, Apple Music, Bandcamp, or any streaming service. Sometimes when a streaming service does have a song or album, it's either not the best quality or only a radio censored version available, even if Spotify claims it's the explicit version. And that explicit tag feels like a slander because the original intent should be default and the radio edits should be the one's with the CENSORED tag.

There is great music out there you can't purchase or stream a digital release of.

There are old and often played CDs in my collection that can't be ripped properly (by me) for one reason or another.

There are some really high quality vinyl recordings out there, done by people with better hardware and more skill than I. Again, many of these vinyl releases are not available in any other format and are no longer available for purchase anywhere.

The real primary reason I got into it, in the long ago times of Napster, was that I liked to make mixtapes/discs. When radio was no longer playing songs I wanted on those tapes, the wilds of Internet was the answer.

I still regularly support the artists I like as directly as I can: buying albums and merch directly from them at shows or their own websites. And I spend more of that money on more artists and especially less popular artists specifically because of the habits listed above.

Don't sleep on his sexual charisma, his flute skills, and his fluency in history, philosophy, and literature.

I'm not sure what exactly is going on with the colors in the background, especially the fishing net, but the thumbnail is accidentally a bit obscene.

My mind may be in the gutter, but I'm staring up at the birds.
