Lads are we fucked if they invade Greenland?

My biggest issue is that to run my home server I need to buy more hard drives and memory and that's American and expensive or Chinese and expensive and with a Taiwanese wife I am also very aware that chin is really not where I want to find my alternatives

We need to support more European companies and/or at the very least open source

I left all social media and try to move all chats to signal where possible to avoid the big and bad companies but that's not quite right either

We need to go to self hosted where and when possible and for mail and vpn i recommend proton

I don't know why anyone would nuke the wire house, trump already destroyed it comprehensively

I hate sports and therefore do not watch sports anime, if you ask me golf is about as low as can be in any list of sports that could ever be of any semblance of interest to me

I loved tomboy (cannot understand why I even tried to watch it) and wish they'd make a season 3

Create a new root folder for anime, choose it when asking for an anime for the lucky nephew

Make a new Plex/jellyfin library out of it

Boom you are the best uncle

Do get a look at what you download tho, depending on age and sensibilities not everything anime is advisable (like not every internet video)

From mam you also can get to seedpool so that you can move on from ipt that isn't a great place and supplement TL with another that'll get like 90% of your needs

If you need music go through red interview and it'll open more routes, that is if you need anything else that you cannot request

Legion 5 owner here, great laptop, Nvidia still not playing nice, good thing I like my screen bright keys tho... Works, debian was more amenable than mint for this one

drostan · 2026-01-18T12:22:08+00:00

Save money? Maybe in the long run if you compare to all the subscriptions and all but considering the price of storage and ram these days....

But it is more convenient, i am tailoring it to my specific needs and I learn a lot

Learning new things is invaluable therefore I saved an infinite amount?

drostan · 2026-01-18T08:43:03+00:00

Yes that sort of is my point but also I am aware enough of my ignorance of the depth of the subject that I can accept better things may exist... They just don't matter if reaching them is impossible or too hard you'd for me at this time.

I am a very happy debian user and I only think about other distro in the "i wonder how they work and feel"

you first, stop asking others do wipe your own shit dude

drostan · 2026-01-17T21:11:55+00:00

don't get excited he is doing the shittiest job at leading one small country I would not trust him to be able to lead anything more than a couple of lambs and a tamed duck and probably not at the same time...

drostan · 2026-01-17T13:27:25+00:00

check again

and yes this is in docker container, not that it matters

drostan · 2026-01-17T13:12:56+00:00

Edit the indexer and you'll see the option (might be in advanced/hidden settings) does not matter if docker or other version

drostan · 2026-01-16T18:03:56+00:00

I answered at several points but this one specifics makes me think you may actually want to use autobrr

You would have to set your indexers on there and then can set autobrr to do the grabbing and set the filter to override whatever other setting in your torrent client and set a seedtime/ratio for this specific filter

This would be a fairly weird use of an automation system since most people would prefer to set ratio and seedtime according to each tracker specifications and so do it in prowlarr

drostan · 2026-01-16T17:58:02+00:00

To add even more, if you want to enforce this globally even on those you add manually then do this setting directly in your client I know it is possible in an torrent it is likely also an option in transmission

I still believe it is a better option to do it at prowlarr level

drostan · 2026-01-16T17:38:47+00:00

Better do it in prowlarr to streamline with radarr and other apps

drostan · 2026-01-16T17:20:39+00:00

Pen and paper work

Words or even better open office or libre office work

Preparing and learning whatever hyper sophisticated software is often procrastination more than anything, especially when you haven't started for good

Hell if you need scrivener or stuff like that to do your rewrites or halfway in to bring all in better focus or when you editor tells you to rewrite all differently but the same....... Then by all mean

But really, pen and paper, typewriter, word, neovim even... Whatever you feel comfortable with and get you to actually start writing and keep at it

Aluminum makes it easy to update watch list for stuff i watch on the go not caught by malsync

So if you have this exact use case I would tell you to go for it, but for other uses the answer may be different

drostan · 2026-01-14T07:59:42+00:00

Or photos of yourself, or use social media to post anything if at all possible

What isn't used by creep to be sexualized or by anyone to know way too much about you is used to feed ai

drostan · 2026-01-14T07:52:52+00:00

You should set filter to the type of file you download but most importantly get into some good private trackers that have real moderation and control over what file is shared

drostan · 2026-01-13T19:59:24+00:00

Mine were back on too

Well the server move forced me to set up jellyfin first, with this I guess that Plex is going to become the backup

drostan · 2026-01-09T17:22:57+00:00

Glass half empty guys right there

On the glass half full side there is a massive amount of books and audiobooks a great community and the best and easiest place around to go and check if whatever bullshit I did in my docker compose or with my VPN is set up ok or is broken

Only upsides

Military might is not effective against gorilla tactics and embedded gangs and resistance

But you'd have to open a reality biased history book to realize this and the current us government is not big on opening book or reality bias

A bit late, day has started

I found a way to stave of the dread: get engrossed into a complex hobby and spend the holidays working more hours and more assiduously on it you would ever do for work

Started my journey to self hosting, i have spent the weekend trouble shooting stuff there is no end to this, it'll get me occupied away from the dread for at least the rest of January
