I mean the downsides are basically cost, another stick/blood draw, potential for false positive and further anxiety/testing. No weigh-in on whether or not any individual should at any specific time, but even less-invasive screenings are not zero risk.

Excerpt from the US Preventative Task Force about prostate cancer screening:

“An elevated PSA level may be caused by prostate cancer but can also be caused by other conditions, including an enlarged prostate (benign prostatic hyperplasia) and inflammation of the prostate (prostatitis). Some men without prostate cancer may therefore have positive screening results (ie, “false-positive” results). Men with a positive PSA test result may undergo a transrectal ultrasound-guided core-needle biopsy of the prostate to diagnose prostate cancer.”

Technically a something being a conspiracy doesn’t mean it’s wrong. Even if colloquially people often call ideas conspiracies in a derogatory manner to dismiss their validity, a plot by the government or whatever to replace or invent birds as a form of surveillance would be a conspiracy by definition: “A plan by a group of people to do something unlawful or harmful”.

What kind of randomly generated password did you have that was crackable? I usually use 30 characters completely random string. If that’s crackable, maybe I need to rethink things.

Unpackerr is usually used for unzipping files downloaded automatically by Radar or Sonarr, but it can also be configured to point to any folder, like your downloads. It’s fairly easy to set up, especially if you’re just pointing it to a folder.
