So are you looking to connect storage to it and run local media or are you looking more for a streaming thing to play Netflix and such?


Yep. Got such a service as well. I’ve got this one docker container that’s supposed to connect to a VPN and provide access from the outside to another one. The bitch keeps just crashing to a point where even “restart policy: always” will give up on it. Doesn’t matter too much usually, since I can start the container before I need it, and it will usually run for half a day or so, yet still


So if piracy was “widespread and natural” it’d be bueno?


Help needed: Immich digital picture frame
Hey everyone, I'm currently using immich for my omagensercer and I love it very much. Now I wanted to revive an old tablet as a digital picture frame and I'm not sure how to best do this. I want to frame to run a certain album on Immich in a (random) loop. My first idea was to use Immich's slideshow Features, yet those switch Images way too fast and I have found no way to customize the interval. Another way would be to run the slideshow locally but I didn't find a way to Auto-Download images to a device when someone adds an imagemto an album. So: how would you do this? Has anyone already done it? Looking forward to your input :)

No, it means that there was a Par2-File (which I didn’t recognize since I haven’t used Usenet for long) and a regular file but Readarr kept picking the Par2 file.


Hey, wwhile I indeed didn’t even know one could do a custom format with a negative score, I solved the issue by adding the corresponding releases those par2 files were for manually.


Thanks :) Yet… why keeps Readarr fetching those and not the base file I wonder?


Those do come from a private Indexer (and given the explanation by @Laser@feddit.de, they are supposed to be there


Readarr and yENC-Numbersalad
Hi there, I've recently tried to use the Usenet and I am amazed how much stuff is on there and at which speeds it can be accessed. Yet... Readarr has been giving me a headache recently and I think this is due to some peculiarity of the Usenet. It recently started downloading sources to many files with wild naming schemes at the end of the file like (2019).zip.vol31+32.par2 yEnc just to complain that it didn't find any files in the download. Now I get that yEnc is some sort of cypher-format and since the files are usually under 10mb, I get that these are probably single chapter or something. Searching the Usenet by hand, I'll usually find many parts of the same audio book with those numbers slapped onto them. Some don't even follow consecutive numbering and contain vol3+79 or something. So: How am I supposed to download those and how am I supposed to teach Readarr how to handle them?

Yeah, that goes for any data though. The question was more if Immich is really so unstable that it might just shred your images because it had a bad day. And to that I can say: no, it won’t. Yet, photos are very important to many people, so they put that warning there.






Oh, it is silly and it is stupid. Yet, it’s how EA acted under Johnny here. That’s the time they were regularly voted as the worst US company. They pulled this with so many things (“Fun surprise mechanics”)


So the Unity stakeholders were less willing to let John do the "if you want something no one’s gonna accept, announce something even more horrible and then release a ‘we heard you’ statement where you announce the thing you wanted in the first place as comprise " bullcrap?


I might just do that when I find the time. It’s way too unknown imho. Yes, it’s not the right choice if you want to keep everything you watched, but for everything you want to watch once and be done with, it’s a better solution in my opinion.


Thank you for putting in the effort!

Yet… I don’t get why using the *Arr stack and Plex is so popular. Plex is annoying as fuck and tries to shill you their paid bullshit at every corner. The Arr stack is buggy and having a separate system for recommendations and requests and for library management is super cumbersome for me. Compare that with Stremio… I could never convince the wife to use Plex with overseer at all. Stremio is super convenient.

Im just saying this because I spent my weekend getting another Arr stack running after years of absence and noticed that the whole thing is as convoluted and fiddly as ever and that really got me wondering why people just take this as the industry standard for torrenting.


Audiobookshelf remote volume
Hey there, I need the techies among you: I got an Arr stack running on a VPS with lots of storage, but have my Audiobookshelf set up on my regular VPS where it has been running for quite a while now. So I'd like to keep it where it is basically and mount the audiobooks folder from Readarr in the torrent VPS into my other VPS. Since Readarr uses Hard Links and Audiobookshelf streams the files: what would your approach be and which protocol would you use for that?

And even then, you pay with your Data.



Real debrid and similar services act A) as a multi premium account (so you can download from sites like Mega or Rapidgator etc like you had a premium account for those services) and as a torrent downloader just like webto and such. You paste a link to them and they download it from a torrent and make it available to you for download/stream via regular https.

Whenever someone downloads a Torrent, the debrid service will cache it, the user who queued it wouldn’t be able to download it otherwise of course.

Yet, from that moment on, the debrid service will serve the cached file whenever someone queues that same Torrent instead of downloading the same file over and over again, so it becomes available to you instantly. That’s how torrentio and sich can use debrid services to instantly start a Video stream via Plex or Kodi or Jellyfin or Stremio.

The Downloads you accessed through them become available via your account, so you can even mount the service via rclone and access the downloads like they were on your local filesystem.

So it’s basically webto just with the added bonus of Instant completion to many torrents.



Instant PTSD. Only beaten by an error in, say, Line 84 in a file that has 72 lines only


Xenoblade is awesome! It blew my mind that sooo many really outstanding Switch games were in fact done by the same company!


thanks! I just switched an… well… it’s buggy :( I had a bunch of photos that read with a wrong date from the EXIF apparently. I then edited the EXIF in Memories to show the correct date and… now it just shows them as taken today. Any ideas on how to fix this?


What are the advantages compared to Nextcloud Photos?




Was their costumer for years. Then they got bought by this shady ass Developer and that was that.


Lemmy instance with MariaDB
Hey there, I thought about starting my own Lemmy instance, yet I'd really like to use my already running MariaDB server for the database. I haven't found anything in the docs (might be me though). Is that possible or will I have to set up Postgresql?

He’s one of those people who have a hard time recognizing the line between “being honest” and “being rude”. That’s not a disqualification though, we all have our quirks.
