As a woman into tech I’ll chime in. We seem to have a mild case of ignorant as shit. My friends are all completely blind to tech and piracy. Now I don’t blame them because they’ve been taught by capitalist culture to care about pointless things since birth, but god does it hurt sometimes and make me want to claw my eyes out. Patience and education will solve the gap.

I think in legal terms it’s even called licensing.

What do I use this for? Do I install it on my NAS or my gaming pc?

My best guess is this is a self hosted network storage for games and other computers run the games from there? Or do they download the game from there? Is it a way to store game saves? Does it have any use for emulators like yuzu?

Sorry for all the questions, I’m only asking because the software looks really interesting but I just can’t figure out its uses.

This will finally put mount chiliad conspiracies to rest.

There’s only two reasons an app should be a subscription.

1. The app requires constant server connection that is an active cost to the developer.

2. The app requires constant updates for maintaining functionality/ relevancy.

There are a few subscriptions I pay for (Nabu casa for one). There’s real merit in the subscription model, but it should only be about 1% of things not 80%.

I actually can’t find the stuff I want that’s missing on public trackers on private ones, so they’re pointless to me.

Edit: Looking for HD middle seasons of Reno911.

I have a special bottles profile just for installing games to my games drive.

I exclusively use Video Lite on iOS and would wholeheartedly recommend it. A big bonus is it’s on the App Store.

Also for Android TV I can’t recommend SmartTube enough.

Can someone recommend some good alternative zigbee bulbs? I started using sengled but it seems they stopped making zigbee bulbs so they could work closer with Amazon and their ecosystem…

They have official community apps now that they do themselves, and it’s amazing. I’ve switched all my apps over and I’ve had no problems since.

As a Canadian I’ve sent a formal letter to the CBC asking them to do the same. I’d suggest other Canadians join me and send formal letters to CBC on their site if you want something like this here in Canada. Personally, I really like how BBC did this and would love others to follow.

Plex has to be one thing where I like the bloat. It makes it feel like a fully featured streaming service that I control instead of just a fancy looking video folder.

Meta machines on my system offer data. Infra machines on my system run the network (infrastructure). But my favourite is naming all my HDD’s platters; Media Platters, Service Platters, etc.

It started with me running plex on my PC. Now I have a server room with multiple systems always running. It still feels like magic.

What made you move away from FreeNAS?

I recommend a used PC with TrueNAS scale. That way you can actually repair your system and have upgradability. I personally think Synology way over charges for very outdated hardware for the sake of ease, but TrueNAS scale is still better for long term use.
