They just blocked a few of the main ones. I was able to sign up from Sri Lanka last week for ~$4/mo family plan. Might meet more investigating to see where works.

Princeofspace ,

This will be an unpopular answer but I use Nordvpn mainly because during Black Friday sales you can get it essentially for free using a cash back portal. The start of the sale last year, which I missed, was offering over 100% cash back. They’d pay you to use it!

Others are better but if the level of protection you’re looking for is “Comcast stop sending me piracy warnings” this’ll work.

Would be great for commentary tracks too.

Arr software for YouTube with Sponsorblock built in.

A way to use Sponsorblock on podcasts.

Princeofspace ,

Interesting. I’d not considered that Plex could build it in. That of course relies on accurate YouTube metadata but it’s not impossible.

Princeofspace ,

Yep. Add to the server with ads and sponsor bs removed.

Princeofspace ,

What if I want to watch on my tv or download for offline use?

Princeofspace ,

Interesting. Just need it to work on a server with an interface as effortless as sonarr.

Princeofspace ,

It does seem unlikely Plex would include this ever. Hate their generic pivot to ad supported bs. But as a lifetime sub to Plex I’m riding it down.

I hear jellyfin supports plugins which is one step easier.

At home I watch on an Apple TV with a nas running isponsorblock. Works well but is a single device/location solution. And I am still paying for YouTube premium.

Princeofspace ,

I wish there was arr software for YouTube that included Sponsorblock. Every one I’ve tried hasn’t really worked. Need it to be automated or I’m stuck using YouTube.

Princeofspace ,

Anyone have a private tracker invite they’d share with me? Lidarr is the only arr I haven’t set up yet. Wouldn’t mind upgrading my library which I haven’t looked at since college.

Princeofspace ,

A quick googling says these are both shut down. RIP.

Veronica Mars. Incredible first season followed by 2 lesser but still good seasons. They made an incredible kickstarter video for a revival movie that I believe was the biggest kickstarter ever at the time. But the movie was really bad. There was another Hulu season after that I can barely remember watching except for the awful ending.

Some things should just stay dead.

Princeofspace ,

I also read one of the spin-off books and thought it was pretty good. No idea why the movie was so bad.

From what I've seen from Euphoria, the cinematography is really good, but between the gratuitous nudity, and S02 sucking, I don't want to watch it. Are there any shows that were shot in a similar way?

Princeofspace ,

I liked season 2. If anything, they lean more into the cinematography.

Princeofspace ,

Wow, never heard of cinemageddon but it sounds right up my alley. I host a weekly ‘bad’ movie watch party and am always looking for more sources.

I have fios and a media server nas. I have good upload ratio with 3 other private trackers if anyone would be kind enough to invite me I will seed.

Princeofspace ,

Or you get a set top box and don’t worry about the trash software that comes with the tv.

I really like my newish sony tv that has a basic mode. Disables all the smart BS so it functions just as a screen. I use an Apple TV or ps5 for all content.

Is a plex subscription worth it?

I want to unlock the ability to view content on my mobile device. I can do that with a one-time purchase (payed with google opinion rewards) or with a subscription. I want to unlock the ability for my entire family though, across multiple devices. Do I have to pay the “one-time payment” for every device? If so, the plex...

What sealed the deal for me was skip intro. Incredible feature I don’t believe any other option has.

Wait for lifetime memberships to go on sale if you can. There are a few sales a year. Usually on Black Friday.

Princeofspace ,

Interesting. Detected the same way, audio scan? Maybe I need to finally try it out.

Can someone give me adivice on how/where to get back into star trek?

As a kid i loved watching the next generation and deep space 9 with my dad. Ive always liked sci fi, more of a (stargate fan) and wanted to get back into star trek, but Im just so lost on timelines and whats going on. There are like 6 kirks and I have no idea how/where to get started with watching this again.

Princeofspace ,

Just watch The Orville instead.

Princeofspace ,

I was pleasantly surprised by Lower Decks and Strange New Worlds is growing on me. The rest of New Trek really didn’t interest me.

Princeofspace ,

It feels more like Trek than anything from this decade.

Princeofspace ,

I don’t care for Family Guy either. But if you like slow, contemplative sci-fi, The Orville surprisingly delivers.

Sponsorblock for Podcasts

As someone who aggressively adblocks everything, one of the final places that ads can still reach me is in annoying ad reads within podcasts. Youtube sponsorblock is incredible but it seems no one has yet adapted this for podcasts. Has anyone else managed to find a solution here? As far as i can tell in my googleing, this...

Princeofspace OP ,

I love the idea of using AI for for ad skipping. Let it do something positive instead of just our jobs in the near future.

Princeofspace OP ,

IHeartradio is the worst. I have dropped off listening to podcasts I otherwise really like. Behind the bastards, anything Robert Evans does really. The ads are too bad.

Princeofspace OP ,

As someone who setup his own nas over the pandemic I really like this approach. Needed a time intensive project to stay sane and I keep finding more useful things it can do.

Another thought I’ve had, plex has a skip intro feature. This works by scanning the audio from multiple episodes and showing the skip button when available. Maybe something like that could build up an ad library of the most obnoxious repetitive podcast ads and work across different podcasts. It wouldn’t work for unique self reads though.

I wish I had the technical knowledge to build something like this but I done even know where to begin.

Princeofspace ,

I am a big fan of isponsorblocktv which sits on a network device like a nas and skips YouTube sponsor segments on Apple TV.

Princeofspace ,

Yes. I am one of those who pays for premium. I primarily watch on my tv and probably watch more youtube than anything else. Also still on the old $10 plan but we will see how long that lasts.

Princeofspace ,

I read that book years ago when Musk’s public persona was almost like he came from the future to get humanity back on track. Electric cars, solar, vertically landing spaceships, that time he opened up all of teslas patents to seemingly try and accelerate electric car adoption.

What a bummer how he turned out. That amount of money just poisons your brain. Or let him feel safe lifting the mask. Never have I done such a 180 on an individual. He was supposed to be the one good billionaire solving humanities problems.

Princeofspace ,

I am struggling to locate Snow Devils, the sequel to wild wild planet. I have the rest of the gamma one movies.

I don’t think it will be a great film but we love silly b-movies over here.

Anyone know where to find the Calm meditation app audio files?
