I still long for the old Scene Torrents days. RIP SCT

I reinstalled NFSU2 a couple of weeks ago. Still a lot of fun.

The fine will be charged to the social media company for failing to control missinformation. Not the users.

Nbz360 was the fastest app purchase of my life. Less than 5min and I knew I needed to give that man some $.

I built a home virtual server host on Proxmox. It destroyed itself 3 times in 6 months. I gave up and installed server 2019 with HyperV. Has been rock solid for years.

I cancelled it after the first episode.

Don’t worry, 100% of them will be scrapped.

They have been doing it for months. Taking out anti aircraft defences.

I got to see them recreating this at the Sydney Royal Easter Show a few years back. You could tell it was scripted but it was still super fun to watch.

The way he isn’t taping evenly is making my eye twitch…

If you run windows then try 🪟+. (Full stop) To access an array of ascii emoji.

Demonoid, that is a name from my past. I thought that site imploded? Now I am curious if my login still works…

I can’t see why not, if you know how to set it up. I am sure there are existing docker containers to help you out. But I am a Plex guy, not a Jellyfin expert.

In you use case I would look at Jellyfin. One of Plex’s main features is sharing across the web

Torrents are all well and good until you want an album from more than a couple of years ago.

My current workflow. Find a band that I like. Add it to lidarr. Wait 10min. All of their albums are in Plex and can be streamed from anywhere in the world.

Not sure if you mean find recommendations of new stuff to listen to, or the download source? Recommendations from Last.fm Download source is currently Deezer. Lidarr+ scripts has a bit of a learning curve https://github.com/RandomNinjaAtk/arr-scripts

Spotify was OK back when I used it after Google Music died. YouTube Music’s algorithm sucked so I used Spotify for about a year. Then I installed Plex for movies and TV but also found it was also great at streaming music. PlexAmp gives me access to a good suggestion algorithm. I made the decision to give them my $$ instead. Now with lidarr+scripts I can have any music I want with almost zero effort. Plus, as the OP said, I get the fun little side hobby of music curation.

It is the only platform where I can follow specific people without a algorithm getting in the way. They all need to choose a new one to move to.

I still watch TV through a Laptop running Windows Media Centre. MS have given up on trying to kill it. The Microsoft remote has seen better days but is still functioning.
