So I’ve been trying to deploy the stack often on for a year maybe more. I can get individual components like radar or soar up and running, but I can’t seem to get the various components to talk to one another.. I need an idiot proof setup because one thing I’ve learned while trying to do this. I’m not very good with Docker. My pre-existing resources are a QNAP TS464 NAS a Proton VPN subscription an existing media library I have assembled through burning disc onto the NAS I think I’ve managed to install Tailscale correctly through the QNAP store . I must’ve spent four hours tonight trying to deploy him sonarr radarr qbittorrent prowlarr whip arr bazar overseer and watchtower in a single stack using various AI tools specifically Gemini and Claudi every time I try to deploy the stack it failed. I got a variety of error. Messages blaming different things from sonar to radar to watchtower to QNAP. So I don’t actually know what the problem was. I was trying to do all this in portainer but I’m not particularly attached to that either. I just thought it was a good tool for beginners. oh, and if anyone’s curious, I used AI because I have a physical disability that makes using the command line interface incredibly laborious and time-consuming realistic. We probably would’ve taken me days to type out all the code by hand. Sorry I didn’t mean for the post to go on this long I just wanted to try to give you enough information to help solve the problem

I have a seven-year-old nephew that visits me about once a year. He loves to press buttons and explore the television. I’m worried if he opens the Plex app and plays some of the content I have on my server while it’s nothing pornograph, just not appropriate for a seven-year-old. What’s the easiest way to allow him to watch some of the content but essentially age lock or rating other content? I don’t need to do this all the time since he lives out of state.

Life-long chair user. Both Manual and power chairs over the years. A couple of years ago, I bought a quickie R5 as a shower chair/backup chair for when my powerchair breaks. I've been using the chair full-time for about 6 weeks while I work on replacing my Pemobil M3 after getting hit by a car. I'm having real problems with the castors on the chair; they don't want to turn, they just seem to get stuck. If I back up, sometimes I can usually get them to move, but in general, this is a real pain and makes the chair very difficult to use. I have been unable to determine if it's the castor wheels or the castor forks. Can anyone offer any insights? I don't remember having this issue with any other chair over the years.

The R5 was self funded bought in July 2023 through SpinLife. I use my insuence and Numotion for the M3
