Many BT uploaders and BT webmasters, who are supposed to be the promoters of the new feature, are now taking a wait-and-see approach to this, reversing cause and effect in the hope that the new feature will first be popularised for leechers, and then they’ll adopt it for creating new seeds. such as some of the uploaders of TGx...
I’ve managed to successfully setup the Stremio + Torrential + RD trifecta, but I am extremely disappointed in the amounts of German torrents. There are plenty of English and Russian ones, but I very rarely find on in German and therefore I can’t use the service with my family....
I am reading The Brothers Karamazov by Fyodor Dostoevsky (P&V translation). About 20% through. It’s starting to get interesting as the characters start to take shape. Till now I have read and enjoyed the P&V translations of both Crime and Punishment and Demons. This is a huge book and I am looking forward to enjoying this for...
Is there already something like this? I’m using Duplicati and a cloud storage provider to back up all my docker configs. It encrypts everything before uploading....
Edit: Rewording: Nonexistent problem
I just found out that sometime in the last month or so while doing regular updates Wine got bumped to 8.12… (likely from 8.0) and my games have gone haywire: Neverwinter Nights and Diablo2 would kind of start but then halt. Switching to desktop and back unblocks games for the next few seconds and then things repeat....
I’m reading up on self-hosting Lemmy, and I was planning on creating my own private instance for individual use on some spare Azure ASP I use to host private FreshRSS (not rich to host a public service)....
I grew up in an evangelical household and went to a Christian school where they only taught creationism (and a little “micro evolution” but not much)....
I can go to the main page of a Lemmy instance and see whatever is active on that instance at the time, but is there a way to get something like r/all for all federated instances?
Looking for a clean unmodded apk for Monument Valley as I don’t feel like paying again for the android version
I want to upload some short videos to post online but I don’t want them on YouTube. Any free video host that is either open source or at least not big corp owned?
This thread is where all the takes from idiots (looking at you Armchair Warlord) and screenshots of twitter posts/youtube thumbnails go.
I’m running my arr stack on Unraid. I set it up using a combination of Trash’s guide and Ibracorp’s video (linked in same article). Everything had been working well. I believe I made some changes to Qbittorrent’s handling of completed torrents, but I honestly don’t recall. I’ve learned my lesson in that regard and am...
I’m wanting to ditch Strava for something selfhostable that also has ActivityPub support. Is there such a thing?
Why YSK: If you’ve ever had cockroaches in your home, you would be familiar with the feeling of unease that comes when they escape your clutches while roaming freely within the crevices of your home and soiling your belongings along the way. Before that happens, you can use a flashlight to direct them to your ‘striking...
For context, this video got me a little spooked about my current OS, I never was super comfortable with their “overnight update” style despite it being more secure. How do they prevent unsafe binaries from a rouge employee being pushed to the device, deviating from / hidden in its open source roots, I know manually...
I’m trying out Trillium Note and prefering it over Obsidian. I wonder if there’s a community anywhere on Lemmy....
I have worked on a file in Directory A. There is a file with the same name in directory B which is an older version of that same file. I rsync everything from B to A....
I recently asked a family member what they wanted for their birthday, and the answer was “cash, and B&N gift card”. To answer the question of “why not just cash”: “if it’s a gift card, I won’t feel guilty about spending it at B&N”. Depending on the answers here, I’m probably going to give them a combination....
I’m wondering how to effectively keep track of the data I hoard. I’m almost at 80TB and currently use very basic folders structure to keep track of my data. I’m looking for something like a full text index maybe even a like a search engine for local data? Is there such a tool?
About three weeks ago, I started my own Lemmy instance. It’s been running great, but theres something that keeps pulling me back to my account on one of the large instances....
I’ve used wireguard for a pretty long time on my server and the phone as a client. I’ve had the same configuration for at least 4-5 years and never had issues. Last week I moved to using pihole in a container with a macvlan interface, so it has a different IP address than my physical server. Then I went and changed the DNS...
