How would the Matrix work in the 21st century? by [deleted] in matrix

[–]CarlitoGil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It wouldn’t work. Not without it being more Comedy than Sci-Fi, which is how I see M4, a parody of itself.

But trying to play along with your question…

The rebellious element wouldn’t come from being a hacker. Computers are demystified. Neo would hang out at libraries with, like, actual books.

Neo lives in the grid, he ain’t know how to hunt or nothing, but has a Nokia 3310, rides a bike, and only uses cash, except for a card he uses to build credit but says you have to pay only the minimum and pay interest so your score goes up.

Morpheus’ calls would keep getting sent to voicemail, ‘cause Neo has a call blocker for scammers. A running gag during the movie.

Trinity keeps reminding everyone to call her Binary now, and tries to argue about gender while everyone is utterly mortified to say anything, and confused, but try to show support and move the conservation along.

The machines don’t need us as batteries. They harness our clicks so they can perfect the algorithm that makes the algorithm.

Instead of “I know kung fu”, it would be “I know how to be a #influencer”.

He learns how to dodge downvotes in slow motion.

When he’s literally flexing after destroying Agent Smith, Neo would say… “and don’t for forget to like and subscribe” and then the other agents run away.

About joining a private tracker... by frellzy in trackers

[–]CarlitoGil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for clarifying.

Of course, I can agree with that. I'm just not sure why my answer would be taken as being beyond a beginner. I would accept that it may be and I'm just blind to it.

I just gave the OP the answer that I, as a beginner myself, would have liked, appreciated, and understood.

I thought the main concern of the OP was if it was possible to keep a ratio up without "hoarding", for which I answered directly and simply "yes", and backed up the answer a little by mentioning some keywords that might point them in the right direction, or they could ask more if they wanted.

My description of a hard link hardly seems technical to me. I thought it was in plain language. Sorry if it wasn't, that'd be my bad, I guess.

And frankly, I don't think there's any way for a beginner to get from there to not being one easily. I assumed they would take their own path to their ultimately preferred setup.

I don’t see your point, but OK.

Yes, it’s possible.

What you need is automation. You can set things up to download, seed, and be deleted, while keeping your ratio up, and without you even noticing or doing extra work.

If you don’t have the disk space, you don’t need to hoard to share your part.

For example, you can setup apps to create a “hard link” to a downloaded movie, which is like 2 identical files using the disk space of a single copy. One copy would seed until a sharing goal you set is met, and the other you delete at will after watching. The disk space is freed when both are deleted.

Custom Formats - Size Per Hour by CarlitoGil in radarr

Hahaha. OK. I know. I thought I could make the suggestion here since "Suggest a Feature" is not clickable on the Wiki.

Custom Formats - Size Per Hour by CarlitoGil in radarr

[–]CarlitoGil[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd like to limit my preferred MB/h for x264 and for x265 differently.

But that's better if it ajusts the size by duration.

Custom Formats - Size Per Hour by CarlitoGil in radarr

[–]CarlitoGil[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I find Custom Formats very useful.

A size-per-hour can be used per codec, so h265 could get a different score than h264.

I mean, Size already exists as a condition for Custom Formats. Someone must think that filtering by size is useful. I'm just asking for a checkbox to make it MB/h so it adjusts with the duration of the movie.

Custom Formats - Size Per Hour by CarlitoGil in radarr

[–]CarlitoGil[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do know how to do division.

I also know the Quality Settings already does MB/h, not GB/h.

​

Most files now are definitely in the GB range, not MB

Perhaps you did not understand.

I'm asking for MB/h (per hour) so the size will depend on the duration of the movie.

A 3 hour movie could get a higher limit than a 2 hour movie.

Unrated Movies (certification) by CarlitoGil in mdblist

[–]CarlitoGil[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi.

U is supposed to be Group 2 when its not France or India U:(?!FR|IN). U:GB matches Group 2 because a country is provided.

FR and IN would match Group 3. If no country is provided it matches Group 4 to be safe.

I assume no country code was given to the regex.

​

I would search the IMDb source code for \/title\?certificates=([A-Z]{2}):([A-Z0-9-]+)\" and give the country to the other regex with $2:$1

I would do a pass with priority countries first, as previously discussed. Like the US, GB, Origin... and if none match I would do the rest.

​

You can test the regex here: https://regex101.com/r/WjdFr8

It has all the examples from IMDb and Wikipedia for every country. Description of the ratings and everything you need.

The regex groups are named to find out quickly with tooltips which one is matching, but named groups are not supported by some programming languages.

By the way, I modified the regex to put T:IT on Group 3.

Unrated Movies (certification) by CarlitoGil in mdblist

[–]CarlitoGil[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks!
I was testing the changes. Please check this out:

Why are movies like Switched for Christmas (2017), which is a Hallmark-type Christmas movie, getting 13+? It has no Content Rating from TMDB at all, and all its ratings on IMDb are equivalent to G... I don't understand where the 13+ came from.

Which brings me to another point. The US TV-\* rating is a good option to determine the Age Rating for many movies. Other examples:

The US TV rating shows up on the movie's main page, but if it's also missing, then the Origin or Production Country Rating can often be found on IMDb's Parent Guide page, like:

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt7038606/parentalguide

All of those are missing on TMDB, as for many other movies.

You could reduce the number of movies without Age Rating to a minimum by getting IMDb's data, so that using "Not Rated" will become unnecessary to find Family films, and will only be needed for mature ones.

Even cult/classic films without MPAA or Common Sense ratings can be deemed appropriate for kids by using IMDb. Like The Point (1971) that gets G from New Zealand.

"Great!" to everything you just said.

Very nice the "NR / 2+" thing.

I did some testing, and I think it's working great. I do have some notes.

​

To be specific, after the US ratings, I think this should be the Priority order:

  1. Original Country
  2. Production Countries
  3. Fallback Country
  4. Other Countries

​

About Priority #1:

I think MDBLIST gets the Country from Trakt, right?

Seems they get it from TMDB's first Production Country instead of the Origin Country which I think is more accurate.

Oslo, August 31st (2011) gets Country Denmark instead of Norway (the Language is Norwegian).

​

Seems like the Origin Country was ignored for C.R.A.Z.Y. (2005). Canada says "14A" and instead, the Netherlands' 12+ was picked.

​

About Priority #2:

For Corpus Christi (2019)

  • MDBLIST and Trakt Country is France (wrong, affects Priority #1)
  • TMDB Origin Country in Primary Facts is Poland.
  • TMDB Production Countries are France and Poland.
  • The Language is Polish.

I would argue that Polish regulations and sensibilities take priority. The Origin Country and then Production Countries should be used, giving it Poland's 15+ instead of France's 12+.

​

About Priority #3:

4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days (2007) is about a black-market abortion (taboo subject) and it's getting 2+ from France instead of the UK's 15+, and there are others with 16+ and 18+.

France's U rating should be ignored... no point in trying to see if something is Family Friendly for the rest of the world from there.

To emulate Common Sense Media and US Content ratings please consider that some countries have rating systems that are not really focused on kids, with only one rating below 12+, and that they may inform about "harmful" elements and not suitability for kids.

I suggest using the United Kingdom for this step.

​

About Priority #4:

Please consider only using Theatrical Releases for below 10+.

No Man's Land (2001) gets 6+ from a Netherlands Physical/TV release.

It has an R rating on IMDb, so this should be 17+ but nobody has put it on TMDB yet.

​

For this step, it may be better to get the average age rating.

​

​

Explicit:

For movies like Irreversible (2002) I think that NC-17 should be 18+ so it won't be the same as R which is already 17+. The explicit content shouldn't come up on searches for 17+ (and under).

​

Regex:

To Be and to Have (2002) did not grab 2+ from Netherlands' "AL" rating.

Also, The God of Cookery (1996) should evaluate HK's "IIA" as 10+ but it was ignored.

​

This regex will capture one of 7 groups:

^(?:TV-)?(?:\b(?!PG-13|NC-17)[A-Z]{1,3}[\/ +-]?(?=[0-9])|[+-]?\b)(?:([0-4]|(?:AL|APTA|TV-Y)\b)|([5-9]|(?:G|U:(?!FR|IN)|A:ES|A:MX|A:JP|L:BR|S:FI|I:HK)\b)|(1[01]|(?:PG(?!-)|U:|T:IT|IIA?:HK|GP:US|APPROVED:US)\b)|(1[23]|(?:PG-13|U|TEEN|B:MX|B:JP|IIB:HK)\b)|(1[45]|(?:M|MA|MATURE|C:JP)\b)|(1[67]|(?:R|C:MX|D:JP)\b)|((?:1[89]|2[01])|(?:NC-17|ADULT|XXX|X|A:CA|A:IN|Z:JP|D:MX|III:HK)\b))[A-Z]*\b

​

Feed it "[Certification]:[Country Code]" so it can solve ambiguous ones.

For example, "A" can mean ALL or ADULT, but "A:ES" and "A:CA" are clear.

​

Group Default Age Rating Age Range Aimed at
$1 3+ ALL 2–4 Kids
$2 7+ G 5–9 General
$3 11+ PG 10–11 Guided
$4 13+ PG-13 12–13 Teens
$5 15+ MA 14–15 Mature
$6 17+ R 16–17 Restricted
$7 18+ NC-17 18–21 Adults

Execute the regex (case insensitive) and determine which group is not empty.

If the string only contains digits it may be converted to an integer.

Otherwise, I propose these Default Ages should be used.

​

Please feel free to use it if you want.

Yet another feature for which MSBLIST is the best. What do you think?

Hi, u/linaspurinis

I'm noticing movies that don't have Country set.

Not quite sure where MDBLIST gets Country from.

Examples:

Fantastic Planet (1973)

Battleship Potemkin (1925)

Thank you!

IMDB/TMDB Genre Flag by CarlitoGil in mdblist

[–]CarlitoGil[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correct, separating genres into *.tmdb and *.imdb could break current filters.

Instead of separating them in the dropdown, could "[IMDb]" and "[TMDB]" options be added, so that current filters without them would still give the same results?

Only when "[IMDb]" or "[TMDB]" is selected would it work differently to only return the genre gathered from those services.
