The good: My fever has broken!
The bad:
* I'm running on 3 hours sleep because a brutal sore throat and a cough kept me up
* The virus (suspecting it may be flu) has caused multiple eczema flareups in unusual locations, including one very sensitive area, and both shins 🙁
Feel like I'm going mad, have just been lurching from one illness to the next recently with no real time to recover 😭

But hey! Project complete! We got the giant 36" Trinitron in the loft, and with only one new scratch and one smashed finger. Everything is still sort of pulled apart but you can get a general idea of the layout. His and hers PCs and TVs on either end, with the CRT and retro consoles in the center (less strain on the controller cables and makes split screen co-op easier).
Well... Not quite complete. I still have to reattach the tinted panels, rework all the power/AV cables, install all the consoles, disassemble and remove the hoist, put the couch back, and clean.
But this was the hard part!

Which should I go for? VOTE NOW!
- Plex (23%, 30 votes)
- Jellyfin (58%, 76 votes)

In the fields that you work in or are connected to, are there any decent jobs (reasonable pay for reasonable conditions) at any level that are in high hiring demand right now?
I'm curious about where there is labour demand to fill jobs that are not precarious or awful.
*No geographic restrictions. It's a general query out of curiosity.
