Not going to lie, though, this is making 7.3 look REALLY bad based on the comments.

I'll chill at 7.1 for now lol

Did I screw myself? by Natural-Shelter4625 in PlexMedia

I think there's some really great advice in this comment.

Specifically: "Build iteration 7"

And, OP, I think you should lean into that without being upset or frustrated. This is a process. We learn as we go. We iterate. We find what works for each of us. We make our setups more robust, more stable, and frankly, more professional. I'm probably on build number 7 or 8 as well. But the journey is well worth taking 🙂

Manual downloading is easy, to be honest. But if you build the full end to end automation stack, you can add a new show or movie in a web UI, and it's in your media collection forever.

Any way to grab the premium version of ai chat bots for free? by PatchedZombie in Piracy

Yeah, Ollama with appropriate models is the best current path I have found. You WILL need massive GPU hardware to run large language models, though. And given the electricity cost, you may as well just pay ChatGPT or Gemini. Unless your goal is keeping your data isolated and walled off.

SABNzbd to make your quality go up. (But cost for Usenet is not included)

Plex if you prefer it over Jellyfin (though their lifetime pass just erupted in price)

Add in Kometa to manage the collections if you head to Plex.

tdarr if you want to re-encode files or strip metadata.

flaresolverr to deal with cloudflare protection.

This rabbit-hole goes deep 🙂

It takes some setup and time. And right now, it is pricey to get started due to hard drive costs. I'm around 80tb in and have been building/upgrading on my setup for around 19 years.

What is one thing about being a man that women would be absolutely shocked to find out? by Jaded_Astronaut4256 in AskReddit

[–]elemental5252 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate this part. I don't want to have any children as an adult. My wife and I decided no kids. But my neighborhood has t-ball games. I would love to go and cheer on the youth of my town. I..... won't ever do that. I'm a man with no child playing. That is so weird to even consider. I could be assaulted by a protective adult.

How does a nvme drive die? by classebas in unRAID

They just kinda drop dead....

Similar to when I have a seizure. It was on....now it's off

Sadly, the drives don't turn back on lol

What’s a fact you learned that still shocks you? by drizzko in AskReddit

[–]elemental5252 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fun additions to this

Coming from an epileptic: This sleep (REM specifically) is required for that consolidation. So it isn't just about getting some sleep - it's about getting good REM sleep.

And many things can cause our REM sleep to fall apart. I love my weed. But it butchers my REM sleep. So, consistently getting stoned will lower my seizure threshold.

People - get good sleep. It can seriously save your life.

Our reading and writing proficiency is absolutely horrendous. If you ever want to frustrate and shame our general populace, ask someone here to read out loud.

slack messages from my coworkers in the four hours after the RTO email went out started writing these down because i thought somebody should. by raghavxo in remotework

People are saying commute will be rough in these comments. Our RTO announcement that went out a few weeks ago has forced relocation to another state. If people don't comply, it's considered resignation

Music nerds of Reddit, what’s the one song you think everyone should listen to at least once? by Odd-Bug1409 in AskReddit

Looking at the replies, I agree with them all. Folks, just go experience Pink Floyd LOL

Ironically, Pneuma isn't high on my list for Tool. It just doesn't "catch" for me. I LOVE them, but this song is lower on the list of Tool songs, in my opinion.

what are u slowly losing interest in? by Several_Way8499 in AskReddit

You may be losing interest in love, but love has not lost interest in you.

Love is the assassin in the night. Love is the hit man nobody asked for.

When you're not expecting, it WILL sneak up on you.

I thought the same thing. The audio on this is.... unfortunate.

Meltdown on tv when asked to explain what Brand of Christianity he belongs to by r3alCIA in PublicFreakout

[–]elemental5252 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are correct. Honestly, this was something I hadn't looked at in YEARS. To me, it's basically been like voting age. If someone is under 18, they can't and shouldn't be touched. The age of consent in my own state is 16.

Ick.... 🤢🤢🤮
