Lidarr works best with usenet. There are good dedicated private torrent trackers for music though.

@dumptruckdan @ZeroCool @Moc

Out of curiosity, how so?

@feitingen Huh, I stand corrected.

@Anafroj @daninet

I got an e-ink device because it’s easier on the eyes and battery easily lasts a week when I go camping.

If it were possible to get an e-ink display, I would definitely use one for programming.

@mojo @protokaiser

You can convert them to azw3 with calibre. It’s what I do.

@jgrim

Yeah Lemmy is definitely lacking polish in a number of areas. One of the things that bothers me most about Lemmy is that the local feed is the default instead of subscribed.

@einsteinx2 @magic_lobster_party

This is most definitely my experience with a lot of CS professors unfortunately.

@jgrim @poVoq

Yeah, even though twexxit happened, there are still an absolutely massive amount of holdouts, so I expect rexxit to be just as slow.

@fedcon @mancy

I just let my family and friends use my #jellyfin server and if there’s something they want to let me know.

I can’t imagine the electricity cost for 5 PB of storage though, God damn.

@jemorgan @mechoman444

I have had my service turned off for 24 hours once and that’s why I finally started using a VPN, as that was just annoying.

@HughJanus @snowbell

Piracy is more often then not a symptom of the problem rather than a problem itself.

For example, game piracy was much more common prior to steam as it was just much much more convenient to pirate at that time.

@IDatedSuccubi @Shady_Shiroe

As CS major, 1 bothers me so much.

I see it all the time especially on calculator sites.

@jemorgan @manapropos

Before using a VPN, I was sent numerous letters from my isp to knock it off. It really depends on both isp and where you live. If you live in the US, my understanding is that it’s the isp who can get sued for allowing you to pirate, so while they don’t want to lose your money and will give you numerous chances, they will eventually cease to do business with you.

@Rooki @ghariksforge

I mean, python is named after Monty Python.

@rezz @AzuleBlade

Theres this, just replace #plex with #jellyfin

https://perfectmediaserver.com/

I use linuxserver.io’s docker container.

@cyberpunk007

I agree with you.

It works better for me though, especially because I never paid for plex pass, so I don’t have access to hardware accelerated transcoding on plex.

UI though, has never really been all that big of an issue for me. If I can navigate quickly, I am good.

I can say with certainty though that the plex roku app is way better than jellyfins.

@cyberpunk007 @dinckelman

Out of curiosity, what features are you missing from #jellyfin?

@damnthefilibuster @Kushia

You can get a hold of them via #eBay. Every now and then a business upgrades and floods the market.

One of these days I want to buy a whole bunch of them and build a #Beowulf cluster.

@Chev @produnis

As the other guy said, because they are way cheaper. I use them for media storage.

For 20tb of hard drive storage, you could expect to spend ~$400 (probably less these days), but the same price will get you a 5th that on ssds (maybe more these days)

If you are streaming video, hard drive read speeds are good enough.

@midas @bronzing

Out of curiosity why not? this is what I have been doing forever.
