Depends on the setup. Maybe you run everything off a raspberry pi and can’t afford to transcode 4k, so you have a separate 4k library for local users only. I could also see wanting to separate the volumes when you have multiple servers attached to a single NAS.
IDK, I don’t personally bother with 4k, but I imagine it’s a little more to manage if you’re sharing your media out with friends/family.
I haven’t bothered with torrents since we cancelled all our streaming services. Usenet is so good right now. SABNZBD, Sonarr, Radarr, Plex, Overseerr for my family requests/Plex share users. Finding a few good providers/indexers was really cheap (Black Friday sales were great last year).
It definitely takes a lot of fucking around/learning initially, but once you’ve set it up right, it’s seamless.
Somewhat related - I hear real-debrid is a pretty slick way to basically stream torrents, if you don’t have access to a bunch of physical storage. Haven’t tried it myself, but people seem to dig it.
Noob mint user here; first distro, I really like it. What’s up with the snap contention that I keep seeing?
This is good advice, I recently first tried a Linux install on a partition of a large HDD just to tinker, then pretty much immediately bought a secondary SSD and re-did all the setup there.
I’m already a convert btw! My windows partition hasn’t been fired up in weeks now.
In literally every rural town I’ve been in, there’s a Mexican restaurant, and it’s always the town favorite. Celebrating a birthday? You’re getting some fajitas.
If you ever find yourself hungry and trapped in the boonies, the Mexican restaurant is usually a safe bet.
