Cocks are getting bigger

China is doing something good: here’s why it’s bad.

I usually try qbittorrent + plug-ins (1337x and others) with that you can search for stuff directly from the torrent client which is great. If it’s not there I’ll usually look up on btdig or similar torrent indexers, after that, I’ll send the files to my server via FTP.

I got 3 user-deleted videos in a row

Am I victim of the Mandela effect or did this happen some years ago too? I remember setting up chrome on win10 in my tech-normie days and getting a similar thing, maybe my memory is failing me.

The competition between Chrome and Edge is very shallow, they’re two slightly altered and heavily branded reskins of chromium, the real competition would be Firefox and it’s forks (mullvad, waterfox, librewolf) (and maybe webkit aka safari) Vs chromium but there’s no big corporation behind those (except safari, but it has many of the problems that big corpo chromium browsers have) , so they’re struggling a lot.

Auxio is cool, aviable on f-droid

After like what, 3 months of A/B testing in one country? Sinking ship gonna sink.

If you really wanna support them give them a dollar on PayPal, to a creator 1000 views are worth 1/2dollars, ergo it’s pretty hard for them to make even just a mere dollar off of you through ads, I block all ads and donate when their content is useful/entertaining

I know quite a few oxygen addicts then…

Jokes aside, saying that WhatsApp is an addiction is like saying that Americans are addicted to SMS, Imessage or whatever they use down there

Lucky you, in Rome, 25/mo for barely 200 down / 20 up, mixed fiber/copper. I’m still on DSL 100down10up (yeah, in 2023) but I think I’ll switch when they will provide real fiber, something like yours in terms of performance. (Fastweb btw)

IK I was just poking fun at windows, but the average user (a grandma or other non-tech literate person) won’t know it even exists, plus it doesn’t resolve the issue that, aside from a few maybe legal scripts, you can’t uninstall edge. Still a step in the good direction though.

The package manag- oh it’s windows right

I know, my dad used gentoo in his glory days on pentium machines probably spending days compiling Firefox. Gentoo is way less of a meme now than what it was then. It’s actually a good distro if you want control.

Does it give u an error like “media not supported by client” or something like that? If so - I’m not an expert- but you may need to enable video transcoding of smthing like that

I don’t really have experience with plex (I only used jellyfin) but AFAIK plex has ads, collects data and has paid plans, although their UI should be nicer, something you could circumvent with custom CSS (freely aviable on jellyfin’s site) there are many plex vs jellyfin comparisons online, but as far as I understood jellyfin is just FOSS self hosted plex with a slightly worse UI and maybe less device compatibility (still a lot of it, considering it’s a FOSS small project not backed by companies)

I don’t know if it’s a r/whoooosh, but “Linux ISOs” is a way to refer to pirated content. You download movies, music, shows etc and then put it on your jellyfin server. It comes from the fact that downloading Linux ISOs is pretty much the only legal use case for a bit torrent client

Nope, you can host it on windows if you want (although I recommend the stability of a Linux system) as for supported clients, windows, Linux, MacOS, Android, iOS, Android auto, Android TV, Apple TV, and much more.

Really want to get into real debrid, can you ELI5 it to me?

If anybody is interested: an old workstation/server costs about 100€, a 2TB external Hdd 50€, that’s about all you need to self-host your Netflix.

to proceed flash a Linux distro of your choice (I recommend Debian 12 stable) follow a tutorial on YT on how to install it, it’s very simple.

Download and configure jellyfin. Open the 8096/8099 port on your router.

If you live in a country where downloading “Linux ISOs” is frowned upon, be sure to use a VPN while downloading the latest Linux Mint release for your jellyfin server.

Load those fancy new kali Linux live CDs on your jellyfin servers, download clients for all your devices and enjoy!

Guides for everything I said can be found online, expecially on YouTube.

Just to add: jellyfin is free and open source: you know it does not spy on you and it does not build a profile on you to then sell your data to ad companies, a huge plus if you ask me.
