Yes, let’s talk piracy behind some stupid walled garden. As if public conversations are not fragmented enough as it is

this is a very bad article. It talks about “zero trust” but then suggests you to use corporate software, the cloud, sketchy russian apps to monitor your traffic at home. Also, I am not spending 2 hours a day going through my logs, nor I want a VM/container with 8GB of ram wasting 40% of my GPU on grafana.
Great that you included your threat model, but you should have specified the type of services that you host/provide.
One thing i would look into is disabling any port that is not necessary (like 80 and 443) and disable ssh on the wider network.
Host a wireguard endpoint in the internal network that acts like a bastion and allows you to ssh-jump to any other host and VM on the network.
Wireguard is more secure than ssh, assuming sound crypto and hygiene for both, because you can’t probe a host from the outside and know if wireguard is running or not
I am not sure what you are talking about. None of the stuff OP talked about are related to containers. Also containers complicate networking a lot, so i would avoid them at all costs and use VMs
Totally agree. This reflects my experience encoding with both formats for releases.
At similar bitrate, av1 also performs much much worse on grain and it is slower to encode
For most stuff i release, x265 objectively (vmaf and other metrics) and subjectively looks better than av1, especially for grainy stuff and older anime. I have had success only with some action movies.
Opus on the other hand… it’s great
I mean… do the math and you can figure out by yourself that it’s a fair price but in no way some sort of very convebient situation for the users. A 20tb hard drive goes for about 450€ and then you can consider the advantages that they have buying hdd at scale.
No, I can assure you russian people use torrents
There is nothing to refute, 100% correct
First of all ignore the trends. Fuck docker, fuck nixos, fuck terraform or whatever tech stack gets shilled constantly.
Find a tech stack that is easy FOR YOU and settle on that. I haven’t changed technologies for 4 years now and feel like everything can fit in my head.
Second of all, look at the other people using commercial services and see how stressed they are. Google banned my account, youtube has ads all the time, the app for service X changed and it’s unusable and so on.
Nothing comes for free in terms of time and mental baggage
How is the 3ds archive so big? SWIM’s archive is a few tens of GB and it’s every title listed in various game dbs
In the past I used airsonic. It has the best support for different music files and good support for albums ripped as single track, like most classical releases.
The problem with airsonic and its protocol is the lack of good android clients.
If you need to listen through the phone for most of the time, go with jellyfin + finamp. Otherwise try airsonic + its web ui.
For music acquisition:
Why is it taking so much space in compressed form? I think text compresses very well so you should be able to save tons of space compared to db tables
I started because I wanted to get around censorship in my country. I also wanted to view stuff in the original language and here we dub everything.
The only good reply in the thread. Thanks for saying this
Can someone explain to me how this movie stand in the whole godzilla franchise?
Suppose I am a guy who only watched the original godzilla movies from 85
yeah, I would redownload all of those instead of transcoding. They are all available with very good encodes publicly
Are those your own blurays? Then share them before compressing.
Transcoding is hard. There is no way that your transcoding settings are going to be a one size fits all. I am currently encoding the famous iKaos Dragonball release and I did 48 samples before deciding what configuration to use.
You are better off downloading stuff from torrent, especially for newer media. You’ll find a community that put 100x your time collectively on transcoding. That will also save from your tremendous electricity costs.
Also look into vmaf for quality metrics. Consider that switching to uncompressed 1080 might bring you close to your goal with very very low effort.
Btw, can you share the title list?
It is unrealiatic, that in a stable software release there is suddenly, after you tested your backup a hard bug which prevents recovery.
How is unrealistic? Think of this:
how is it not?
it’s a shitty service, by a shitty person. I know Moxie personally, and he is basically Elon Musk if he didn’t make it
