First time building a PC. Would these components work?

I've never built a PC before and I don't know that I know all of the considerations.

I'd like something as a server for automated backup from other devices, like phones. I may also do video reencoding on it. I'd like it to be fairly small, but it doesn't need to be that small. This is what I've picked out: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/L3pxGP.

The case, motherboard and power supply I plan to use is the AsRock Deskmini, but it wasn't an option on Part Picker: https://www.newegg.com/asrock-deskmini-x300w/p/N82E16856158068. This was attractive because it says it has a built-in RAID setup. This is for backups, so I'd like RAID, but I don't know anything RAID, so a built-in option sounded convenient. The Deskmeet would have been fine too, but it's out of stock.

Is the cooler OK for that processor? I don't care about a video card, and the 5700G has integrated graphics, but I don't know if I need something else to get the graphics working. Is there anything else I should consider?

Thanks for any help.

Does anyone use AHK with Adobe Acrobat Pro?

Using Window Spy, Acrobat Pro doesn't appear to have button IDs to use with ControlClick. I can't find shortcut keys for almost any of the actions, and trying to navigate through the buttons with F6 and tab seems like a no-go too. The only ways I see to do this are to hardcode button positions or use or ImageSearch, both of which I find don't work well because coordinates change with window resizing or different resolution displays.

Does anyone have a different approach or know of a way to handle different displays and window sizes? In particular, I want to activate "Visually digitally sign".

How do you connect the p-trap to this metal drain?

The connections under my sink have a flexible tube that I'd like to replace with rigid tube. The stub out from the wall doesn't have the nut and threaded connection I've seen before, and they've used what I think is called a no-hub connector.

Would I use the no-hub connector on the rigid tube or do I sweat something like this on? https://www.brasscraft.com/product/1-12-in-o-d-tube-x-1-12-in-fip-3/ Or is there some other way?

I've soldered the narrower water supply lines, but nothing this large. Is there anything to consider other than heating it longer?

The stub out has corroded on the bottom and there's a thin crack that the no-hub fitting covers, so there isn't a leak now, but I don't know if that will be covered if I sweat on a connector. Is there a way to deal with that crack?

As some extra info, I think that some stubs are threaded into the vertical pipe. This isn't threaded in and doesn't look like it can be removed without opening the wall and replacing it.

Is there a way to block all pinterest results?

Is there a way to block all pinterest results from search engines? This doesn't seem to work: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/unpinterested/.

This one doesn't block results in image search: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/hohser/

Simply using "-site:pinterest.com" isn't great, because there are a bunch of pinterest domains: pinterest.com.mx, pinterest.es, etc. Typing them all in every time is a hassle.
