Wait until you find out about the Barenaked Ladies :-D

Barenaked Ladies (BNL) is a Canadian rock band formed in 1988 in Scarborough. The band developed a following in Canada in the early 1990s with their cassette Barenaked Ladies (1991) and their debut album Gordon (1992). The band’s popularity eventually spread to the United States following the release of versions of “Brian Wilson” and “The Old Apartment” from their 1996 live album, Rock Spectacle. In 1998, Barenaked Ladies released their fourth studio album, Stunt, which contains their highest-charting hit, “One Week”, along with “It’s All Been Done” and “Call and Answer”.[2] Their fifth album, Maroon (and lead single “Pinch Me”), also charted well. The band is also known for creating and performing the theme song of the American sitcom The Big Bang Theory. Barenaked Ladies has continued to regularly tour and record new music, having released 14 primary studio albums of original material and three themed studio albums.

Initially a duo of singer-guitarists Ed Robertson and Steven Page,[3] the band grew to a quintet by 1990, adding brothers Jim and Andy Creeggan on bass and keyboards/congas, respectively, and drummer Tyler Stewart. Andy Creeggan left the band in 1995, and was replaced by multi-instrumentalist Kevin Hearn. Page left in 2009, reducing the group to a quartet.

The band’s style has evolved, and its music (originally acoustic) grew to encompass a mixture of pop, rock and folk.[4][5] Their live performances feature comedic banter and freestyle rapping between songs.[6] They have received a number of Juno Awards, and have been nominated for two Grammy Awards.[7] The group has sold over 15 million albums and singles, and was inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame in March 2018.

I can’t even remember why I disliked this person but I did

Maybe I’m wrong but I don’t think most of us came here to leave the community of Reddit, just the admins/corporate decisions.

Dumb rules and power tripping mods have been a thing across every community on the internet and will be forever.

A VPN prevents your ISP from seeing exactly what websites you’re visiting. Depending on your local laws and censorships, this can be either the difference in a jail sentence or a letter saying “don’t download Green Day America Idiot again >:(”

A VPN doesn’t prevent digital fingerprinting, user accounts/profiles from being created, or dark tracking. It’s entirely possible to be identified even with a VPN; you can’t eat your cake and have it too.

Tl;dr you should really consider your VPN as just a shield from your ISP seeing where you go. It’s not a one-click solution to anonymity, it’s just one layer of many in a good opsec solution

100% true, very well put. This was an excellent comment

Fuck

Hmmm, sorry to hear that. What kinds of lists are you trying to make? Are you making sure to “enable” the filter when creating it in Radarr?

Firstly, the core *arr suite is not a streaming service, whatsoever. It’s a media file manager meant to help with running a private server streaming app, like Plex or Jellyfin. With that out of the way:

I imagine sitting on coach, searching for show. Then you want to watch some, and then you have to wait half an hour for full episode (or even season?)

Download speeds depend on your own setup. IMO, a Usenet connection is the only way to use *arr. Downloads happen at the maximum speed and don’t rely on some other person’s seed rate. You, conversely, don’t need to worry about seeding.

When you manually add a show to Sonarr, you can select it to only pick up the pilot episode of the show, which could cut down on DL times by focusing bandwidth. You can also select a lower definition. With Usenet and something like a 720p quality, there’s no reason why this should take more than 5 minutes to be in your library.

I’ll also paste my comment I left below about connecting to lists:

You can connect your *arr profiles to monitor external lists of new titles by pointing the list manager to something like MDBList. They might not be as instantaneous as you might like, with a 24hr refresh period, but it’s pretty much a 0.99:1 Netflix replacement for me

I’ll also add that I’m not some CompSci nerd, either, so don’t be scared to give it a shot. My server runs off Plex on my Windows 10 desktop because I don’t know how to do any better but I’ve never had an issue watching what I want to watch

Yt-dlp is the way. J-Downloader is okay too if you need a good interface but dlp is just too damn powerful to not use

As I said, I’ve yet to find a selfhosting solution half as good as PlexAmp. It’s very, very good and arguably a better service than normal Plex

For me it’s PlexAmp and the few tech-illiterate friends I have who use my server for video streaming. 99% of the time, I just watch movies on my desktop with VLC player but I’ve yet to find a self-hosting music player half as good as PlexAmp

Germany looking 80 years in the past like “let’s do that again.”

Israel is NOT a Jewish state, it’s a Neo-Nazi regime. If I wanted to kill as many jews as possible, I’d convince them that they “belong” in a tiny country surrounded by neighbours who want to destroy them.

Counterpoint: when I worked at Panda Express, I used to leave fake reviews on our store about how helpful and professional pp_boy_ was because I wanted a raise. Never did it on any accounts attached to my name though.

Never.

Found PJ’s alt. Fuck that guy and FS who are just the AwkwardTurtle and Gallowboob of Lemmy

All fair points, just depends on where your motivation to self host comes from. $7 for a monthly sub to Plex is frankly nothing to me, I don’t even have the charge linked to my budget spreadsheet. Between Plex, VPN, my usenet provider, private tracker memberships, electricity, etc., I’m not even sure I’m saving much money versus having one or two streaming subscriptions. In other words, I don’t do it to save money.

PlexAmp alone justifies the cost even before some features got put behind a paywall but the fact that all my tech-illiterate friends can just download an app on their phones/consoles and watch whatever they want in a high bitrate off my computer makes it worth it for me. 9/10, I just watch films off VLC player anyway.

That isn’t true. A Plex pass from the server owner will cover access for all users
