ELI5: how does dripping one faucet in your home when it gets below freezing protect all of the pipes from bursting?
At /r/explainlikeimfive
I understand that water expands when it freezes and can break a pipe, but what I don’t understand is how dripping a faucet in one part of the house, not inline with other pipes (well branching at the main I guess), protects those other pipes from freezing?

Some titles not displaying or displaying broken video
At /r/netflix
So, I have been a recurring customer for a while. I've never had an issue with Netflix until this past week. When they added the new lineup, which has the tobery Mcguire version of Spiderman among several other movies and shows, Netflix decided to break itself. Several movies and shows simply do not display video. Or it's video displayed like the broken channels on not-so-legal cable boxes back in the day, you know, rainbow lines, video "noise" but not much else. It doesn't happen on every movie or show, but enough of them that it's an annoyance. Anyone had this happen? Or any suggestions on how to fix it? Netflix is on the Xbox, I've already deleted and reinstalled, I've changed hdmi cable and port, nothing fixes it. Is Netflix just bonked? Seriously considering unsubscribing and going to a different service.

Use "Viewing Restrictions" to ban specific titles from recommendations

Unfortunately this doesn't work for broader categories of content, like blocking whole genres, but it does work for specific titles you don't want to appear as recommended content for you.https://preview.redd.it/byz0x43vt5be1.png?width=1540&format=png&auto=webp&s=381c2ab50ebde40b1e5249a934d59f308800bf01https://preview.redd.it/3s1fpvhzt5be1.png?width=1420&format=png&auto=webp&s=5020529065c8f5852bf03ac66afa59659ca7c410

ELI5: How did we cure infections before Antibiotics?
At /r/explainlikeimfive
I’ve been sick for almost a week now, and just went to the doctor’s yesterday. He immediately saw my insane amount of throat and ear inflammation and diagnosed me with a throat and ear infection and gave me a large quantity of antibiotics to take. Within not even 12 hours from the first dose, i started to feel better. How did humans from, let’s say the 1800s overcome these infections?edit: eternally grateful that antibiotics exist now

In The Dark
At /r/netflix
Tonight, I wanted to try something different from my normal genres of Fantasy, Action/Adventure, and Sci-Fi, so I saw "In The Dark" and gave it a try. Now I'm hooked. I binged 7 episodes. The story line is unique. The actors make it all so believable. They really sell it.

Device not a part of the household issue
At /r/netflix
My parents have a Netflix account that they have upgraded to a larger family plan. I live in the same house with them and have my own profile on my phone and PS5 however Netflix will randomly lockout my profile on both these devices but works on the main computer my parents watch on and the only way to fix it is get a code sent to my dad, but the weird thing is it clearly states on their account that both my devices are apart of the household but they only work once he opens the link and goes through it. Any ideas?

Audio stutters in App on Windows 11 in full-screen
At /r/netflix
Got a super weird problem on Windows 11 HTPC: when watching Netflix through the app and using "Dolby Atmos for home theater" as spatial sound in sound settings, everything works great, sound is great, Denon AVR says input is "Atmos", everything is fine to the moment I put the app in full screen. When Netflix app is in full-screen, the audio starts to mute itself and pause, while the video plays normally. The moment I exit fullscreen mode and leave Netflix app maximized, audio starts to works normally. It makes no sense that a change into fullscreen makes audio go silent every few seconds.Any ideas?

There is a lot of great international content on Netflix but as a guy who has played too many concerts and been to too many, my hearing isn’t the best, so I enjoy watching shows with the captions on. Most of the time though the subtitles aren’t even the same words that are being spoken. Just wanted to come here and say that the words are spot on with Squid Games 2. Finally Netflix, thank you.

an absolute miserable first impression
At /r/netflix
as WWE RAW is coming to netflix, for the first time, ive decided to use netflix.. and its making me regret every penny ive paid to do so (all of this happened while using netflix via my computer on a chromium browser) upon first getting my account up and going and getting on the site, then fiddling with the profile picture, i immediately began having problems with the tabs to find shows. they couldnt find anything. the home page still worked so i looked there, saw a show (dragonball daima) and clicked it. it gave me an error and signed me out. signed back in and tried a few more times, each with the same result. official help with the error said maybe it was my internet, so i restarted the router and modem, tried again, same crap.
finally i found a thing on reddit saying to clear netflix cookies. that made the tabs work again, i could see stuff under tv shows and movies.
tried to click breaking bad to load it up. jumped to a screen telling me i dont have to sign out. i wasnt signing out, i was trying to play breaking bad. it makes me sign in again. repeat this with a couple more shows. same problem. this time i could find no help for the browser issue, so i instead restarted my computer.
now we get to where i am now: i try to sign in after restarting my computer and now, upon being made to sign in again, i am shown a bright yellow-orange error stating "Something went wrong We are having technical difficulties and are actively working on a fix. Please try again in a few minutes."
it has been several minutes. no change.what am i doing wrong? is there an issue with netflix? is there an issue with me? am i stupid?
i just want to watch monday night wrestling now that its no longer on tv and, like every single thing in life, i cant do so much as that without some miserable interruption to prevent something that might grant me even a microscopic amount of happiness. someone help me.

ELI5: why do some painkillers work better than others for different "types" of pain? (Why is paracetamol useless?)
At /r/explainlikeimfive
I can't remember the last time paracetamol alone touched my pain, whereas painkillers like ibuprofen and aspirin are noticeably more effective. The problem then is that NSAIDs are more risky for your stomach and GI tract. I understand that NSAIDs are anti inflammatory but a pharmacist friend told me that to get a reduction in inflammation, they need to be taken over a longer period of time rather than just when the pain comes up.So, if all painkillers reduce the pain response in the brain, why are some better than others for different types of pain? And is there a type of pain where paracetamol actually works?

Netflix just casually is missing the last episode of AARO?
At /r/netflix
Netflix was releasing episodes of the series 全領域異常解決室 (AARO in English) on a weekly basis, more or less around the same time as their availability in Japan. However, the last episode of the first season, which came out on December 18, is inexplicably missing. Of course, the episode is still available on a channel on the Japanese version of Prime Video, as well as some other sources, but it's strange that it is missing from Netflix. Has anyone seen this happen with any other shows? Is this a glitch in Netflix's automation, or is there a reason behind it?

Why are quick blood tests always done with a finger poke? I used to donate plasma on the regular and was always curious why the poke had to come from the pad of my finger. Same with some of the tests at the docs. Because I do some delicate work with my hands I would have preferred it come from just about anywhere else. Is there something special about finger blood?

ELI5: Why is the cost of living so out of pace with average and minimum wages? Why was it better in the past?
At /r/explainlikeimfive
It seems like the cost of living is difficult for many people today in the United States, but the internet abounds with stories like "my [dad/grandpa] bought a [house / new car / supported a family] with his single-income wages from [a gas station / factory / blue collar job]." Some data bears this out:When you look at the federal minimum wage, it would have been $13.05 in 1970, adjusted for inflation. That's nearly double today's $7.25. LinkThe median house price was 3.5x the median income in 1985, vs. 5.8x today. Link Gen Z has 86% less purchasing power than baby boomers in their twenties, and the cost of public college education has increased by 310% since the 1970s. LinkFrom 1979-2019, worker productivity increased 59.7%, while wages increased by 15.8%; if wages had kept pace, the average worker would be paid an additional $9 per hour. LinkWhat is causing this? Is there an ELI5 explanation for why housing, education, and so many other things are wildly out of pace with median incomes over the last 40-50 years? Is there a simple set of factors, or is it a lot of things all at once?
