Thing is most likely you wouldn’t be in an afterlife or be able to see anything or anyone, you would just cease to exist and you would be doing just as much experiencing and thinking as you did before you were born. So being remembered is a way of extending your existence by living in the minds of those you impacted in your life and knowing you made a difference, that it was worth you being born.

They want you to stop being poor and get better furniture if you want a big tv

Several and they all sucked, acting like they are the only ones in the space, being loud, obnoxious, and arrogant

Most of the other countries with problems don’t have their citizens walking around loudly declaring as a matter of average discourse that they are the “greatest country in the world”.

Open source and free yes, better? I don’t know how you can say that considering everything plex allows via their plugins (recreate your own audible library) and also the more professional polish of their UI

I use brave which is a chromium browser with all the tracking stuff turned off and a few ad blockers baked in. It also has some vpn and crypto wallet stuff built in but it’s not in your face so you can just ignore it.

This ad platform shouldn’t affect brave right? Should just be another thing the brave team are able to automatically switch off when the browser updates?

I’ll just keep stealing current day content for the best of both worlds

Which client are you using? I can see the option to block instances in the settings of memmy for iOS

A good place to read about all the apps that end in arr is their wiki called servarr

They provide setup instructions and descriptions as well as downloaders and scripts. They also each have a GitHub repository and webpage with screenshots and more flashy promo material so you can get a good idea of what they look like and how they work.

Essentially they all automatically go out and download any movies or shows you’ve told them to look out for, format the files and place them neatly in folders that your media manager like plex or jellyfin can then make available for you to watch on the client devices on phones, computers, smart tvs, chrome casts, Apple TVs, everything really

Never used kodi so don’t know if this pipeline would work for you considering you might like the ability to stream from pirated sources on demand. But if you are ok with downloading your movies and shows to a local repository that you can then access from any device anywhere in the world. Then I suggest using prowlarr, radarr, sonarr, qbittorrent, overseerr, and plex media server respectively. It sounds like a lot of tools but each one plugs into the other so they all overlap and handle different parts of the whole pipeline.

If you wanted more general info about what each one does then let me know

So in other words their take home annual pay would be $85k pre tax?

Better?

Fun fact this is actually the Rhine river that runs sort of ⅔ of the way through Düsseldorf, similar to the Thames in London or the Seine in Paris.

The other bank is much more residential and a little high end so it’s not really a gathering place for the population, whereas the bank shown in the picture is 2 blocks from a tram line that runs parallel to the river and runs into the heart of the CBD making it an extremely approachable body of water and pedestrian strip.

On the weekends, the city holds public events to draw people to gather on this bank like food fares, carnivals, concerts. It’s always packed on the weekends and generates a shit ton of foot traffic for all the pubs and restaurants in adjacent streets.

I had no idea all this was covered in highways just a few decades ago, making the city more walkable was an amazing choice. If you’ve never been to Düsseldorf before or don’t know anything about it, it is definitely one of the highlights of Germany once you’ve had your fill of all the war sites. Extremely liveable city without feeling overcrowded, and just a stones throw from the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, and France.

Yeah but these ones go to 11

Can someone convince me why jellyfin is better? Keep in mind I’m a lifetime plex pass user. And I have plex stuffed full of plugins like audnexus and YouTube metadata downloader so I can use plex as an audible service and repository for my favourite YouTube series’ or automatically pulling down YouTube podcasts and having all the metadata auto fill.

I also use the watch together feature to watch things with a friend often and an attractive sleek UI matters more than it should.

So far memmy is the best app in my books, pretty close to what Apollo used to be but still missing some key features like the jump bar.

Voyager/wefwef is literally just an Apollo clone but it limits its search functionality to lemmy.worlds instance allow and block lists, cutting off less savoury parts of the fediverse, even if your account is hosted with a Switzerland (everyone allowed, nothing blocked).

I just don’t like the idea of not having access to ALL of the instances, even if I never choose to go there. But like I said, memmy is the only app that truly searches across all instances sfw or not.

So the hierarchy generally goes like this:

• You have a game
• Then you have your patch and crack makers that circumvent the games DRM. This game and patch ingredient box is called a “release”
• Then you have your repackers like fitgirl and dodi that take a release, apply the included patch to the game, make sure everything is configured and the game runs, then compress the whole thing heavily, sometimes reducing everything by up to 50%, then break the package up into a handful of large chunks, some of those chunks being things that you might not want, making them optional to you, like the soundtrack, alternative language audio packs, etc.

Because everything is so damn compressed, a game will usually take a long time to install, because your computer is literally re-inflating the bouncy castle. A lot of people will take those install times over the download sizes of the original releases which I think clarifies most who these repackers actually serve.

They exist for people with data caps and slow internet. If you can avoid downloading languages and soundtracks you don’t want in the first place then that saves you much needed data and time. And even though installation (which is actually just decompression) takes an age, it’s still faster than terrible internet downloading twice as much.

Most of dodi and fitgirls repacks are actually just other peoples releases, they aren’t installing any cracks, that’s why the upload notes always say “based on codex”, or elamigos, or empress, etc. Unless what you meant was that they apply the cracks to the games that come as seperate ingredients in the original releases?

They do however usually make those releases smaller by compressing the shit out of them and making things like the additional media and language packs optional. And make the releases available through more mainstream avenues like torrents.

They exist for people with data caps and terribly slow internet. I’d argue they also exist for people with limited hdd space but you still need to decompress the game before you can play so instead you could say they are good for people that have seperate storage servers for their media libraries and backups.

You can keep an archive of all your downloaded pirated games that collectively take up half the space if you are the kind of person that hordes things like that, in case you decide you wanna reinstall and play a game again or something.
