Debugging large code bases.

Sometimes it catches it, sometimes it does not.

Tedious work otherwise and a real time saver overall

You should check out Netflix :p

A collection of programs that will track your media directory and automatically start a torrent on a missing piece of media with a web interface that you can use to browse what you do and do not have.

• lidarr – music manager
• radarr – movie manager
• sonarr – tv shows manager
• prowlarr – torrent index manager (ie tell sonarr to check thepiratebay.

So you basically start these programs, connect them with prowlarr so that they can find torrents, point them to a media directory, and then connect that back to a torrent client such as Qbittorrent. When a new TV show comes out, they will automatically download that into your downloads directory and hardlink it to your media directory, torrent keeps seeding, it’s filed away properly and no extra storage use until the hardlink breaks. So if you also have Jellyfin / navidrome pointing at your media directory, you will just see new media pop up each week.

I recommend using qbitorrent in a docker container that enforces a vpn, then you can just drop a WireGuard profile in there. AirVPN Works well for this as it supports port forwarding as well.

I personally manage the entire thing in a single docker compose file, and that’s what I would recommend, because then it’s set and forget.

Click the link, you’ll see it is indeed the first heading under Criticism

Yeah psi is a pretty common unit and trivial to swap between if SI is needed.

Arguments like above often show a lack of real world experience.

Any suggestions on alternatives?

Slack is ok but proprietary.

Element is a new and eg fractal doesn’t have threading.

Yeah but hyprland, unlike x, is actually pleasant to use.

Not an excuse for poor behavior nonetheless, merely an observation.

One can buy weed with crypto. I can’t do that with a bank card.

I guess, not everyone wants a centralised currency

Unfortunately, the official desktop app is essentially unusable.

Fractal is pretty good but less features.

Oddlama/gentoo-install is great for this.

Electrician or construction. No money at all in data, tech, software etc.

Yeah this wasn’t ratio or even obiter, perhaps convention. Without looking deeper this was along the lines of an impact statement. Whilst it raises points for discussion its a far cry from precedent for the admission of evidence.

Steam deck is quite good with touch I find.

My biggest complaint about lemmy is the lack of content and censorship.

The only meaningful lemmy is dbz0.

If i want to read about cybersec, darknet, drugs etc. Reddit has far more content and far more discussion with less censorship – which is insane because they just about create everything now.

Wireguard (or tailscale) would be best here.

I think the parents suggestion was to not use it.

However, it’s a bit like avoiding water on a boat given how pervasive the cancer is.

Most of the MS suite is pretty awful. OG OneNote was a good idea. VSCode is ok, just quite slow. Oh LSP is fantastic, I believe that was developed by MS.

The Office Suite and PowerBI are terrible, by 2025 standards it’s glossy trash.

Yep. mid size business is the best place to be for engineers. You get your pick Of the lot all without HR 🙃

Devils advocate. The m{1,4} chips are nice.

Well that’s great, airvpn has worked well for me in my torrent docker container and I recommend it for that purpose.

That’s a fair point. But it also depends on the application as well.

To use the example from earlier, good luck getting Emacs 25 to run on Windows 11.

…but maybe another perspective is that it works really well with Windows because they prioritise backwards compatibility at the expense of development time and they can do that because they’re a large company and as a large company the community gets a very little say in the way that their operating system works.

Linux is your operating system. It’s community driven and community developed and one of the expenses of that is that users are going to need a higher degree of technical capacity. The trade-off is that you get more privacy, and more say.

However, I believe that it’s achievable for most users.

I mean this sincerely, how can I help? I’m not an expert but i did teach this to university students and I’m a big advocate of privacy. What would you like to see?
