Saw this downloader on my feed today, and it looks neat.

torrent galaxy has what you’re after (as a boxset), and does imdb id search results.

That huge chunk of learning required for arch when you’ve never used Linux before is really hard to imagine when you have years of experience working Linux under your belt. That does not mean it doesn’t exist for new users though.

That shit’s complex and long. Much as I appreciate the sentiment of “the distro doesn’t matter” I really can’t agree.

Very neat.

It’s also nice to have a reminder about choosing hardware for now and for future choices as well. I’m still on an nvidia 1080 but I’ll likely use amd next go around.

Nope. SD cards can do terabytes now. Walking away with it is probably the easiest part of the whole heist plan.

Getting around the obscure hardware and software DRM schemes, moving that much data quick enough that you don’t have to make two trips, getting the knowledge required to do all that… I figure those would probably be harder.

My robots.txt has been respected by every bot that visited it in the past three months. I know this because i wrote a page that IP bans anything that visits it, and l also put it as a not allowed spot in the robots.txt file.

I’ve only gotten like, 20 visits in the past three months though, so, very small sample size.

I ended up using a cam for a movie from 2009 to check to see if the movie had differences between the theater version and the DVD release. It didn’t but it was neat that I could, 15 years later.

So I respect it, but also, good god will I never actually watch them for the actual movie itself.

They make you compile it because it’s non-free software and you’re beta testing it in order to use it for free.

It has nothing to do with linux. They do the same for the windows beta.

Because everything’s a trade-off, people optimize different systems for different things

And microsoft has chosen to optimize windows 11 for online advertisers above or equal to the user experience.

Datas is more fun to read.

Yeah, autoscroll just isnt as good as manually moving rhe mousewheel, and i use paste way more than i ever want to scroll through a 10+ page document.

I love the idea of that feature, but it is not at all reliable in my experience.

Your best bet is the nvidia sheild. Osmc does not do well with DRMed streaming services at all. I struggled to make youtube work on it.

They’ve changed their error message. Now they’re just fucking with us.

Used latitude.

If you want a live conversion and can’t afford the >100$ it would cost to grab an ssd for a scratchdisk, you might also look into using vlc to grab the video stream from source camera, and encode it out to somewhere else, such as a webserver.

You might also need a script to make sure it’s always up.

Alternatively, there’s a good chance that zoneminder will be able to do what you want with just a little tinkering. https://zoneminder.com/

From their website;

OARS relies on honest answers from upstream projects and is purely informational.

Gotta admit, despite being bi, i still avoid most m/m stories on the amateur writing sites i follow. Shit gets weird fast.

Gpu encoding is terrible for anything that isnt fast encoding speeds. Best to use the cpu since this isnt for a live environment.

Both. How quickly a server can send a webpage with images (even if they’re small) is directly proportional to the storage mediums seeks times. The worse the seek times, the less ‘responsive’ a website feels. Hard drives are a terrible location to keep your metadata.

The server scan will search for the files, look them up and grab metadata, and then store that metadata in the metadata location. If your metadata location is the same spot as your movie, it will cause some major thrashing, and will significantly increase the scan time for jellyfin. Essentially, it gets bogged down trying to read and write lots of tiny files on the same drive, the absolute worst case scenario for a hard drive to have.

If the movies are on a hard drive, and the metadata on an ssd (or even just a different hard drive) the pipeline will be a lot less problematic.

You can significantly speed this process up by putting the cache folder on an ssd, instead of the same hard drive the videos are on.
