      I know this person and, honestly, it’s a thing of majesty. These discs have presence, heft, and are valuable. They’re collectors items on some level - every last one of them. So what if we’re watching “Jaws” or “Aliens” for the 400th time. We’re having a real, visceral experience here.

        I’m exaggerating here, I only have about 200 laserdiscs. That’s just a portion of my physical media collection. But I do really enjoy them. My toddler calls them “big movies” and we’ve watched Bambi I don’t know how many times. And hell yeah, Jaws and Aliens! I have the Criterion release of Silence of the Lambs, and that has also gotten a lot of play time.

            I bought a cheap RTL-SDR to help solve a CTF challenge at DEFCON. The 2m/70cm antenna on my roof is begging for a fun project that’s not just talking to other hams.

              I might do a brief write up on setting up NTSC and PAL broadcasts if there’s any interest. It’s a neat little project to get some life out of an old CRT you might have lying around. Although I don’t believe the RTLSDR has enough bandwidth to fully cover a NTSC stream, but I have seen a write up where someone got it working with some compromises. I found a neat piece of software that uses ffmpeg and even has yt-dlp support and a GUI wrapper for it. I’m actually using it right now to play music videos, with a MTV logo and all. My understanding of antennas is…lackluster. It’s all over coax anyways to avoid any run-ins with the FCC.

                Actually, amateur TV broadcast was something that interested me. I had the opportunity to buy an SDR with wider bandwidth, but I wasn’t sure how much I’d get into it, so I kept things cheap.

                Another thing I’m looking into is ADS-B flight tracking. My house is within range of a sports arena where there are all manner of overhead banners get flown. Might be fun to follow them around on a map.

                  You should pickup a HackTV if you’re interested in SDR. Add on a portapack and you can scan ADS-B and a bunch of other stuff off internal battery power with no computer/tablet. And it has great driver and software support when you want to connect it to a computer. The only downside compared to more expensive radios like the kraken is that it’s half-duplex. But for how I use and for the price it that’s not a problem.

      Older geek here. I started with Plex and torrent. Added sonarr. Researched and switched to jellyfin. Learned about arr stack. Moved services to docker.

      It’s now super low maintenance. If I need to update a service, I just kill and recreate it. I have a second machine for media storage.

      I think I spent a weekend building the arrstack and I have a few days total working on the home made NAS.

            It is a gui for searching for stuff across sonarr and radarr that also integrates with jellyfin to keep track of what you already have.

          I’m gonna disagree. I followed the instruction set here on lemmy and the original on reddit using ubuntu server. It wouldn’t work. The directions are not for someone unfamiliar with linux files. There were gaps in the information that were written for people who understand the unsaid parts on how things are put together in linux, not for an “idiot like myself”.

          I gave up after two days and multiple reinstalls after docker kept refusing to load. There was nothing automatic about it.

        Because paying for usenet means paying for privacy rights. Next to that, law enforcements are actively hunting uploaders, not downloaders. Usenet is much faster. Constant uploading is less energy efficient as it requires more pc power (especially when uploading loads of data) so it costs you more power, slows your pc, keeps your hard drives actively running which wears them down (as I imagine you don’t have 32TB in SSD). With torrents you need to keep them uploading to get ratio on the closed community sites, so it takes up much more drive capacity. On open sites you get loads of viruses and other junk. I use my upload speed for friends to stream the content from my NAS instead. I got free vpn with my usenet account, for the price of a vpn account so I pay as much as you downloading torrents, if not less, assuming you’re smart enough to have a paid vpn subscription. And this vpn is on top of SSL for extra privacy.

        Usenet is better in so many ways.

            Yeah fair enough, but that’s why they run idle instead of off when not in use, right? At least my NAS optimizes the lifespan of my drives while at the same time preserves power by keeping them running idle when not in use AFAIK. As soon as I access data I hear the drives spinning harder. My pc runs on SSD’s as it is off during the night and downloading to SSD storage means rewriting bits all the time which wears SSD storage down, unlike with HDD’s. So my NAS runs sonarr and radarr and automatically downloads everything by itself, directly to HDD’s. But those HDD’s are idle when I’m not downloading, because I’m not uploading because I don’t use torrents.

            But please correct me if I’m wrong. I’d love to improve my setup and the life span of my drives.

            I think there’s no hard rules. I think in Australia, with the Dallas Buyers Club fiasco, the judge said a fair compensation for pirating a copy of the film was the price of the DVD, but because the studio were trying to sue a single individual for millions they threw the case out.

            As far as know there is no precedent for piracy punishments on individuals. The best they can do is ask your ISP to send you a strongly worded letter.

            Both downloading and uploading is illegal in most places, even downloading became illegal here in the Netherlands a few years ago. But searching for someone downloading a movie is dumb, you would want to catch the uploader so there won’t be anything to download anymore. The Dutch company Brein actively searches for uploaders and fines them on contract from creators, labels and studios. They do this together with the Dutch police and police from other nationalities. They don’t care if you have ip TV, they do care if you host ip TV. They don’t care if you download, they do care if you upload. With torrents you also upload, so they want to fine you if able. Due to privacy laws in The Netherlands this isn’t possible yet, but in Germany it’s a standard practice as ISP’s are forces to share user information.

      Usenet is the way but I’ve never witnessed someone who torrents see the light in a penny comment thread. Few people truly understand opsec and how to quantify their own risk surface, but those who do will gravitate towards Usenet.

        Many don’t know about usenet. When you only download using torrents and don’t know anything else, you might look into it after reading something about it here. It’s how I found sonarr and radarr, by reading about it on reddit.

        About the speed: Oh, that’s such a difference. I download with roughly 100MB/s constantly, which is the max write speed of my drives (1000mb/s connection). I’ve never reached anything like that with torrents.

        New movie? Sure. Let’s download the 46GB version. 10min later and it’s downloaded, extracted, renamed, put in the right folder, added to Kodi ready to watch, including subtitles.

        To me usenet is a no-brainer.
