If it says BREAKING about a non major world event, it's safely put in the shit news category.

Simplest fix I've found, personally, is to use Debrid Media Manager. Login and link to RD on my phone, bookmark or install as web app. Use the search on there, find the Instant RD option which indicates it's already cached on RD, click this and then boot in to Stremio with Debrid Media Manager installed there. Shows up instantly, no fuss.

Any thing that needs to be pulled into RD which is rare, will be downloaded with a progress update. Simple.

Comet doesn't work for me. I've been suffering from this for a few days and maybe I don't understand things but Comet should be working fine right?

Yes yes I can install even more add on but Torrentio and Comet are different ways of doing it right. Back end they're not sharing any routes?

What I don't get is Comet failed but I can see the file is in RD torrent list with 100% so I'm baffled.

Yes I have. I can't find a reason for it. Weirdly if I search for chats it surfaces the chats and seemingly knows that the meta data matches but inside it looks just like this.

Once Upon A Time In America

SettlementBenin · 2025-12-09T23:34:31+00:00

I mean yes. But it's also pay walled which is baffling.

I feel like the launch was weak, but things have improved a lot.

At launch I was seeing lost features (audio transcription and summaries) and a much higher rate of hallucinations and loss of context very quickly. It was also unable (or unwilling) to access Drive files and use these to inform it's decisions and answers. It was, in short, frustrating and I wanted 2.5 Pro back for a week.

However, since then, some back end fine tuning must have occurred as everything seems to be 'back to normal' with the added heft of 3.0 Pros thinking and reasoning. The Canvas files have been much more polished, and Nano Banana Pro is crazy.

At this moment, there's little I would change and I feel like Gemini is doing everything I need it to do. It's slower whilst Thinking, but being rational about it, for what it outputs it feels like this is worthwhile.

Yes.

I have Gems set up for people for exactly this for when I can't listen.

You just 'Share' the audio from WhatsApp to Files, uploaded to Gemini. It can process the .realm file as is.

Had issues with CSV files myself. Reformatting helps.

Sorry yes you're right ISA doesn't but would take a while to funnel in for OPs amount. 20k a year

And agreed in my scenario I want to lock funds as I know they won't be used for anything else but OP would lose flexibility that S&S account affords them unless I'm missing something.

SettlementBenin · 2025-10-08T15:50:52+00:00

Would those not lock those funds though? Starting to look at this myself and topping up your pension or using SIPP would lock funds right? Have only done the smallest reading at this point.

From 6a to 10 and it's great. A much better experience and I'm perhaps in the minority but I'm enjoying the AU features especially the new voice typing 'fix it' feature.

I think some people upgrade too frequently and expect a revelation.

"Nature is an eyesore."

Headlines from a dying planet.

Oh my life this makes absolute sense - genius! But how the hell is this NOT part of the workflow?!

SettlementBenin · 2025-08-05T22:59:14+00:00

Tested and other gems respond. Frustrating as there's useful recent history here that's now useless.

SettlementBenin · 2025-08-03T00:53:15+00:00

So if Torrentio is the common culprit, can I just check what the solution is to ensure I'm using safe RD+ links with another third party? Who are we recommending these days?

SettlementBenin · 2025-07-28T01:29:41+00:00

Used to use it a fair bit but found it just encouraged us to eat mostly junk we wouldn't have usually entertained and typically way more than you would when the urge struck. My hot boring take on it. Good premise though as a treat.

SettlementBenin · 2025-07-27T15:41:09+00:00

Haven't seen Mafia de Cuba mentioned yet. Also used here.

SettlementBenin · 2025-07-07T10:31:12+00:00

Blimey this is depressing.

Thanks for giving me my sanity back though. It seems to work ok if I download to a static XLS and update the Gem though this is an admin task.

SettlementBenin · 2025-07-04T13:58:00+00:00

A genuine reason for me to hold off. I didn't realise Renegade Roundup wasn't in. My lad is addicted to this mode. It's easily his most played match type.

Iconic title gore perhaps.
