You shoulda been looking elsewhere at least a year ago by now.

I was working in sales when I started self hosting like a decade ago. But the things I taught myself then led me to a career in data analysis. Same company.

I haven’t tried the meal planner side of things yet but this has been a great app for managing my favorite recipes.

One more harness, bro.

I pay for

My domain: $75 for 5 years

Usenet newsgroup access: $75 a year

Internet: $100 a month.

I do all that with sonarr. Custom quality profiles with size ranges to look for depending on the resolution wanted and quality profile selected.

You can also tell it to only keep specific episodes, or seasons. I only keep the first 10 seasons of The Simpsons as example. Or The Daily Show, I only keep the last 10 new episodes.

Sometimes, it’s the most basic of realizations that we miss.

This whole comment thread raised my electric bill by $.02/kwh

Journey before destination.

Used to be that disk jockeys also got to pick what they played to an extent. Now it’s all just predetermined lists nationwide brought to you by iHeartRadio. But yeah. Crazy to think how quickly things changed.

Used to be we would share mixtapes… I really miss that. It was an intimate social interaction that we’ve entirely lost with modern streaming.

I miss the days of people having their own bespoke collection of their favorite movies and shows. Everything is homogenized now. At least when I pirate, I’m still building my own personal media library. And I never have to worry about the show I like being removed later.

But I’m not gonna lie. The quality drop off in content caused by streaming services I think is a bigger issue

Netflix activity tries to make content that’s not actually good enough to watch without browsing a phone. Second screen content, they call it. And I guarantee someone in a finance role realized they could make way more by doing just enough to keep people, rather than try to actively create amazing content, because it’s soo much cheaper to not pay for good writers, or good set designers or actors when you could just find someone who’s good enough. I think it’s because the money people spend is recurring, linked to the service as a whole, and not linked to the individual work… users have to vote by watching now, and some of the best stuff I’ve ever seen is also some of the least watched.

Oh cool! I haven’t heard the name Geohot since the old PS3 jailbreak.

I also agree with his take on AI

Don’t mind him. Any time someone shares code, there’s always someone else who did nothing talking about how much better your code could have been. Just noise from the peanut gallery.

Do you wanna share a bash script, then?

How is this any different from Overseerr?

I know that’s what the work training video tells you, but that is what the businesses want you to think.

I’m gonna call it Twitter even harder now.
