I got a lifetime pass for cheap ages ago and while the company isn’t doing so well, Plex itself isn’t getting any worse. Its just not getting better.

As long as that continues, then I’m fine with staying. I only really use it for Plexamp anyway.

While the message is good, the article is AI slop with little to nothing in it that wasn’t said in the title.

To download media that is old. Without it, you have to periodically tell the *arr suite to download stuff. I tried it out, but it ended up causing more problems than it solved, so I got rid of it.

SSB (Secure ScuttleButt) is the protocol behind the app Manyver.se

There are some issues with it though, so the lead dev of Manyver.se created PZP as a sort of revival of the project. Unfortunately, funding ran out and other commitments took priority, so he had to step away from the project right after its first release. It’s functional, but barbones and in desperate need of developers.

Yeah, Freenet is not user friendly at all. Ive tried a few times, but was unable to get it running at all. I2P I had similar issues with, though I did get to try it out. The main thing is that it needs a browser dedicated to it to work properly and is finicky.

Yggdrasil I actually found to be rather polished. It just makes a new network adapter like Tailscale so it’s compatible with pretty much everything. Main issue i had was DNS. That, and a lack of content or new features. Its the same now as it was 5 years ago, even with regular updates. There’s just very few websites on yggsrasil.

IPFS is complicated. Its harder to setup, but comes bundled in lots of other apps. My main issue both it is a general lack of polish and quality of life features. It has everything else though. Its a functional p2p internet that works both alongside and instead of the regular internet. Its just really clunky amd unpleasant to use, is slow, and doesn’t have much content on it. Its also riddled with scams and crypto crap taking advantage of it and ruining everything.

Syncthing doesn’t only work on LAN, it can work through any network interface including Tailscale and yggdrasil, and has public relay nodes in case you don’t. I’m pretty sure you can also host your own relay nodes if you want to.

There are lots of others, but most either shut down, got turned into scams, or were always scams.

There was one chat app I remember, I think it was called firechat or something. They ended up removing all the P2P features from it and removed all references from their advertising.

Same

The difference is you dont have to be on the same network

I use:

1337x Bangumimoe Bitmagnet Bitsearch BT.etree CrackingPatchin Ebookbay Kickasstorrents Limetorrents Linuxtracker Nipponsei Nyaa.si Shana Project Subsplease Uindex

But my prowlarr stats show that only these are used much

1337x ~ 500 grabs Bitsearch ~ 400 grabs Limetorrents ~ 250 grabs Kickasstorrents ~ 240 grabs Nyaa.si ~ 150 grabs Bitmagnet ~ 100 grabs

There is a function that does what you are asking for.

.unarap_or()

It either unwraps the value or uses a provided default. Personally, i think unwrap() should be renamed unwrap_or_panic() to follow existing conventions and prevent confusion for non-rust programmers.

Honesty good for them. Companies that ban mature content are the worst.

• The difference between the OS and the DE.
• How to install apps in Flatpak, AppImage, and dnf/apt
• maybe user help programs like tldr or trash-rm? Those are both cmd programs though, so that might be too advanced for beginners.

Lol, glad I could help i guess

Why wouldn’t it be? That kind of thing is up to each individual game developer to decide. Minecraft works fine, as do many of the other games I’ve tried.

I love it

Low quality is better than no quality. That is, something is better than nothing, and options are always good.

Podcast Addict.

My only gripe is that it only works on mobile, so I can’t have all my settings shared with my laptop. Otherwise, it’s nearly flawless and the premium is cheap as hell.

To be fair, the budget isn’t so much a question of “how much I have”, but rather a question of “how long am I willing to save up”

The 3K figure I used in my post was based on the relative price of similar systems I’d found online that “mostly” for the bill of what I was looking for.

Systems that actually had the kind of CPU I was looking for often ran in the range of 7K, which would take me about two to three years to save up for.

And while yes, I was looking in the wrong catagory, as far as I can tell they don’t sell non-NAS systems. I wasn’t able the find a single example of a server designed for CPU tasks until I posted here and was recommended the Minisforum MS-01. Which is, admittedly, overkill in the extreme, but at least I won’t have to upgrade for a long while, and I only have to save up for 3 or 4 months to afford it!

Yeah, the Minisforum Ms-01 was suggested a lot, and as far as I can tell, its nearly perfect. After reading thtough the comments on this post, I’m planning on buying one or two on a few months.

I’m a bit concerned about the risks associated with having storage and compute on the same device, but I can always get a regular nas for storage later.

Thank you so much! After searching it up online, the Minisforum MS-01 seems to check off every box I’d had when I went looking.

I’ll look around to see if there is anything more suited, but for now, it seems like what I’ll end up going with.

Thanks!
