      And maybe about a minute or so more - absolutely not because I wanna cause any discomfort, I just need to process the shock & loss (maybe some abatement issues) to be able to physically move away, back home to my def-not-up-to-date Jelly Fino (thats the name of my main instance).

      (Actually I really should update my Jellyfin client on Tizen … or buy a N100 player or something.)

      I’m antsy about pirating software and games because of malware, but movies and shows? Just go to a reputable site and choose a torrent with a lot of seeds and it’s pretty safe. Personally I have an old laptop dedicated to running a jellyfin server streaming torrents, so even if I did download malware there’s nothing of value on the drive

          This is the first time I’ve seen anything SDR related on lemmy. Please tell me there’s a community for us somewhere here, that’s one of the few things I still miss from reddit.

            If you post on [email protected], I’d read.

            I bought a cheap RTL-SDR to help solve a CTF challenge at DEFCON. The 2m/70cm antenna on my roof is begging for a fun project that’s not just talking to other hams.

              I might do a brief write up on setting up NTSC and PAL broadcasts if there’s any interest. It’s a neat little project to get some life out of an old CRT you might have lying around. Although I don’t believe the RTLSDR has enough bandwidth to fully cover a NTSC stream, but I have seen a write up where someone got it working with some compromises. I found a neat piece of software that uses ffmpeg and even has yt-dlp support and a GUI wrapper for it. I’m actually using it right now to play music videos, with a MTV logo and all. My understanding of antennas is…lackluster. It’s all over coax anyways to avoid any run-ins with the FCC.

                Actually, amateur TV broadcast was something that interested me. I had the opportunity to buy an SDR with wider bandwidth, but I wasn’t sure how much I’d get into it, so I kept things cheap.

                Another thing I’m looking into is ADS-B flight tracking. My house is within range of a sports arena where there are all manner of overhead banners get flown. Might be fun to follow them around on a map.

                  You should pickup a HackTV if you’re interested in SDR. Add on a portapack and you can scan ADS-B and a bunch of other stuff off internal battery power with no computer/tablet. And it has great driver and software support when you want to connect it to a computer. The only downside compared to more expensive radios like the kraken is that it’s half-duplex. But for how I use and for the price it that’s not a problem.

      Is she from the Maxx? It was an animated show on MTV a long time ago. Her name is Sarah and there’s a whole part where she gets a gun to defend herself but she always comes across as a little bit deranged.

          Recognizing that is a part of growth, don’t think bad of it.

          I used to fucking love a cartoon about a living magical alien rubick’s cube that was so bad it didn’t even make it through the first season despite the toy being a raging success at the time.

          Just like if you cringe at the stupid shit you used to do, it’s just a sign that you’ve matured enough to know it was stupid.

        Plex is pretty awesome, ngl. I always wanted to try jellyfin since paywall and all but since most people wont donate to open source to save their own lives, I really cant blame them.

          I run both Plex and Jellyfin. I always watch my videos with subtitles and for that reason Jellyfin is still unusable for me. Subtitles are too big on one platform but too small on another. Size adjustment is broken. No Subtitle delay adjustment. Downloading subtitles is an external process.
          I still use it for an occasional video that needs transcoding, but it really needs to fix subtitles before I can ditch Plex. There are other minor issues with JF over Plex, but they are not dealbreakers.

            Thanks for mentioning this. I recently switched to kodi for my tv setup and it works well with plex. I wonder if jellyfin would work with it. I might try it.

          Yet Jellyfin has no financial issues and even asked people to stop donating to them but to support other projects instead.

            I went with Emby after I started having concerns with privacy on Plex. I have a lifetime sub of Plex and used it for like 8 or 9 years, but I really dislike that they would send emails to users about stats of who watches what, etc.

            I would have gone Jellyfin too, but Emby has a cloud connect setup for easy server switching, and I wanted the LDAP plugin among many other plugins available.

      Things are so tight that 1 streaming service would be an irresponsible expense for me. $15/month for an expense that can be circumvented if you’re smart, its a no brainer. I feel like society has done more harm to me than any amount of piracy will ever do to them. Where are all these high paying jobs I was promised I could have if I got a degree, huh? I’m worse off now than before I made the decision to go to school. It’s pirated or nothing for me but it’s also more convenient. That enshittified corporate ui shit is slow.

        Well obviously that means that you just have to stay in silence and watch nothing all the time.

        Piracy is wrong and immoral and you should never deprive a billion dollar corporation that’s keeping over 99% of the money the actors and production crew are making

        There are people who understand what I’m saying…then there’s the guy or lady I’m replying to right now.

        By that I mean…PIRACY IS IMMORAL!

          I’m gonna disagree. I followed the instruction set here on lemmy and the original on reddit using ubuntu server. It wouldn’t work. The directions are not for someone unfamiliar with linux files. There were gaps in the information that were written for people who understand the unsaid parts on how things are put together in linux, not for an “idiot like myself”.

          I gave up after two days and multiple reinstalls after docker kept refusing to load. There was nothing automatic about it.

            Mostly because I figured you needed more help than a link to some guide, which I assumed you must have already attempted before asking here.

            I see where your reply is coming from, but what I did might not be at all relevant to your case, depending on your setup. That’s why there are specific guides for different use-cases.

            Best of luck mate.

          Portainer helped me finally get a wrangle on it with a webui to manage everything from with a proper UI. You can still deploy with terminal commands and dockerfiles and such, or through Portainer with app templates or stacks. But you’re not limited to the terminal when it comes to managing everything.

      You can also setup lists which for example automatically download all the movies in your watchlist on Plex or a list on TMDB (and I assume IMDB)

    Reading this thread is letting me know how behind the times I am, like 90% of the apps are greek to me.

    Used to have a huge library media server, torrenting all the day long.

    But you guys, WOOHOO hosting drop servers and auto seeking subtitle and NFOs 24/7 from a curated seek list. FUCKING BRILLIANT!

    I don’t got that kind of energy in my old age

    Nowadays I have a handful of pirate stream sites and that’s really all I need.

      Older geek here. I started with Plex and torrent. Added sonarr. Researched and switched to jellyfin. Learned about arr stack. Moved services to docker.

      It’s now super low maintenance. If I need to update a service, I just kill and recreate it. I have a second machine for media storage.

      I think I spent a weekend building the arrstack and I have a few days total working on the home made NAS.
