..and chill.
fuck streaming services!
Obviously that means that I just don't watch movies and just sit in silence doing nothing, because piracy is wrong and immoral!
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!
Aye aye matey, people who choose piracy are peer-plexing...
In all seriousness, that woman is a keeper.
I still would never pirate anything and I'd totally get her to stop doing that shit too.
Oh you were being serious
You just got upvoted! Very good at detecting when someone is being sincere!
MULLVAD! Lockdown mode! Multihop in two different far apart countries! TNERROTTIBQ!
Ahhh! My Tourette's is getting worse!
I'm always serious and always being sincere...SARCASM IS WRONG AND IMMORAL!
I just ask Jellyseerr and it goes and gets everything ready for me.
Y r u not searching the content name in the search bar of radarr or sonarr instead? So simple. So automated. So arr.
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)
love sonarr, radarr however never quiet worked for me. It doesn't like my network drive and then when I got around that it had this bad habit of downloading movies it already knew I had again...
Is there somewhere I can read for an idiot like myself to completely setup via docker?

I did try that using Docker on Windows but it was an unmitigated hellscape. Just use the installers if you're using Windows for it.
If you're on Linux, dockstarter automates a lot of the docker set up.

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.
I just kill and recreate it
That's too much effort sailor! We have a container for that ! Watchtower - containrrr.dev

It's going to take a while to torrent a movie on the 40 meter band.
We're not watching the movie, we're listening to the download 🌚🌝
Downloading it frame-by-frame from SSTV

👉 RTLSDR NOAA sat imagery and chill
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.
Every frame will also have some handwritten info about the radio it was sent with, and possibly a photocopy of some dog in the corner
Ah yes, searching for torrents in radio frequencies
...duh, Radarr...
The radio is obviously for updating jellyfin. All's good.

Pirate and chill
My girlfriend laughed
I know this person and, honestly, it's a thing of majesty. These discs have presence, heft, and are valuable. They're collectors items on some level - every last one of them. So what if we're watching "Jaws" or "Aliens" for the 400th time. We're having a real, visceral experience here.
I'm exaggerating here, I only have about 200 laserdiscs. That's just a portion of my physical media collection. But I do really enjoy them. My toddler calls them "big movies" and we've watched Bambi I don't know how many times. And hell yeah, Jaws and Aliens! I have the Criterion release of Silence of the Lambs, and that has also gotten a lot of play time.

Friendly reminder that i2p exists and that you can torrent your cat videos without exposing yourself to your dog loving isp.
