Tldr, probably not. Proton has an article saying no, but that article is older than their new Stealth protocol which was built to work better in anti-vpn environments.

I would also read this article which has some information you may find useful.

The thing is in this case, it’s only human suffering. People don’t actually work nonstop all week. Giving them fewer hours over four days means they’re more productive for those days because they’re not dragging out their work to fill the arbitrary 40 hours they have to work for. So companies pay workers the same, but can save money in amenities and office space or whatever by using it less AND have more productive workers. Longer work weeks don’t actually make companies more money (oversimplifying and speaking broadly).

I imagine the largest mobile phone operating system on the planet has a few more downloads than one of the several available package managers for the comparatively very small desktop Linux audience, yeah. This is the Linux community, not the Android or Google community, so I’m not sure what you’re yapping away about or why.

edit: i wanted to know how many devices run android and according to this it’s three billion so you’re wrong anyway lmao

I was using Radarr/Sonarr to download files via qBittorrent and then hardlink them to an organized directory for Jellyfin, but I set up my container volume mappings incorrectly and it was only copying the files over, not hardlinking them. When I realized this, I fixed the volume mappings and ended up using fclones to deduplicate the existing files and it was amazing. It did exactly what I needed it to and it did it fast. Highly recommend fclones.

I’ve used it on Windows as well, but I’ve had much more trouble there since I like to write the output to a file first to double check it before catting the information back into fclones to actually deduplicate the files it found. I think running everything as admin works but I don’t remember.

The group used “sophisticated computer scripts” and software to scour piracy services (including the Pirate Bay and Torrentz) for illegal copies of TV episodes, which they then downloaded and hosted on Jetflicks’ servers, according to federal prosecutors.

They probably used Sonarr and Radarr and called it a day (or similar off-the-shelf tools available on GitHub). It’s not very sophisticated at all. That combined with Jellyfin and a VPN (or Usenet or a country that doesn’t care about piracy) and you have your own up and running. You could also just use free sites with an ad blocker instead of paying $10/mo like the service this article is about charged.

If not then there’s always Navidrome which is built specifically for music. Haven’t used it myself but lots of people seem to love it.

I like Jellyfin for my media server, including music.

On Android I use Symfonium (works with Jellyfin as well as other backends). Nothing comes close to this app imo.

On desktop I use Feishin which serves me well (Jellyfin only afaik). It’s not perfect and it does have a bug where adding an album to queue will actually add all albums with that exact name to queue (even from different artists), but that issue is being tracked on GitHub and otherwise I run into few issues.

They misinterpreted “metaverse platform, mozilla.social” as a single item in the list, not as two items.

For anyone who isn’t aware, Mozilla has a thing called Mozilla Hubs that could be considered a metaverse product

While we’re talking about asymmetric encryption, can someone explain to me why you can’t decrypt information with the same public key that encrypted it? I understand the analogies (locks on a briefcase, unmixing paint, etc), but I can’t “un-analogize” them to understand what’s actually going on. Encryption keys aren’t physical locks or paint. They’re numbers(?). So why can I encrypt something by multiplying by a known public encryption key, but I can’t decrypt it by dividing by that same known public key?

Amazon bought Twitch for its video live streaming infrastructure/tech, which at the time was unmatched. Now Amazon offers that infra/tech via AWS and anyone can spin up a Twitch competitor just as capable.

Amazon doesn’t care about Twitch at all. Prime subs are just another benefit to make Amazon Prime more appealing to consumers, but iirc Twitch is the one who actually pays out of pocket for Prime subs.

It is not possible to move 1.8 million people out of a region like Gaza without mass death. This is not some secret information that Israel doesn’t know. The state of Israel has demonstrated at every possible opportunity that at best it does not care and at worst that’s the goal.

Radar and Sonarr are tools to track movies and TV shows respectively. You can add a movie/show to track, tell it the quality you want it in, and set up Prowlarr or Jackett to give Son/Radarr the access to the torrent trackers it needs. You can also use Usenet but I have no experience there.

It will search those torrent trackers for releases matching your movies/shows in the quality and language you set for them and send the downloads to the torrent client you set up. When the client finishes downloading, Son/Radarr copies (or hardlinks) the files to your library folders.

If Son/Radarr is tracking a show that you currently have downloaded in 480p, but the quality profile allows upgrades up to 1080p, it will search for 720p and 1080p releases and pick the best match it can find. When the torrent client finishes downloading it, Son/Radarr will automatically replace the 480p release with the 1080p release it just downloaded.

I recommend against gogs. It’s missing lots of features that I expected and I ended up switching to gitea anyways. Gitea works well for everything I need and forgejo is a fork of gitea that I might switch to in the future.

Why not use a reverse proxy to keep everything on port 443 behind your own domain or duckdns? /gen

Yes, but to block fake news you need the max setting, which also blocks social media

If you’d prefer, of course, you could block social media without blocking fake news, because priorities

My provider order for stuff that Sonarr handles (shows/anime):

1. TheTVDB
2. AniDB
3. TheMovieDb
4. The Open Movie Database
5. Missing Episode Fetcher

I don’t know what the last two are and I doubt they ever get used. Sonarr uses TheTVDB

I’d like to add that Jellyfin has a provider order that it checks for metadata from. I had some issues until I changed the order to pull metadata from the same provider that Sonarr and Radarr use. Once it checked there for metadata first, everything lined up and I’ve had exceptionally few issues.

I understand the frustration in watching him waltz around unfazed after what he did, but we’ve never had to apply this law before. We need to get this right the first time. We can’t afford to fuck up applying this law, and not fucking it up takes time.

For anyone wondering, their account was created two days ago and half of their handful of comments are like this. That person is baiting. Just report, block, and move on.

This holds true for youtu.be links, but not youtube.com/watch?v=

Discord file url parameters are to prevent using discord as a free cdn. I believe discord plans on actually enforcing expiration later this year or early next year, at which point those extra url parameters will actually be necessary (and the links will no longer work indefinitely)

By the way for anyone who doesn’t know, the ? only appears once in the url. Successive question marks are instead denoted by &
