I use Prowlarr + Radarr + Sonarr + Jellyfin.

I have /data directory organised like this:

/data
├── media
│   ├── books
│   ├── movies
│   ├── music
│   └── tv
└── torrents
    ├── books
    ├── movies
    ├── music
    └── tv

Files added from Sonarr goes to torrents/tv and that for Radarr torrents/movies. Once the torrent client has downloaded the files, Sonarr and Radarr hardlinks the needed files to media's respective folders. I have set media/tv for shows and media/movies for movies on Jellyfin. Everything is automated, I love it.

A woman is a lot more than a just bearer of a child, you fucking delusional piece of rat shit. I am confident this incel created this account solely for the purpose of trolling.

I have seen couple videos, one was a drone killing Russian soldiers, other ones were for porn. So it may just be lack of interest, or lack of convenience to share videos.

There is an open issue on GitHub for this. You can try raising your voice there in hope of some update.

The torrent client can get confused about the authenticity of the files if you make any changes to the files that were downloaded. It can also have trouble finding all the files required for seeding, so moving the needed files to media is a no.

Once the torrent client finishes downloading the files, instead of copying the needed files among them to media's respective folder, we simply make a hardlink to it to save space and to ensure the authenticity of the files in torrents folder such that the torrent client has no trouble seeding the files.

The seeded folder which contains the needed files can also contain media that can potentially confuse Jellyfin such that it shows it; furthermore, less useless files also decreases the scanning time taken by Jellyfin. So instead of directly linking the respective folders in torrents we have a separate and more clean directory for Jellyfin media.

TL;DR: to save space and to ensure your torrent client can keep seeding the files.

My OOP experience isn't from Java, but I get your point. I don't really have a dislike for OO; it sure does have its applications. I once met a dude who was trying to use an object oriented library in a functional way; the result of that was a mess full of complications. I feel a good balance is necessary.

I turn off LSPs during my train of thoughts. I don't want all red and yellow underline bullshit to disrupt my thoughts. Like, calm the fuck down. I WILL write the correct code eventually; just give me some fucking time.

Well, I use Neovim, so turning off the LSPs or restarting them is sufficiently simple.

When I work on a new project, or on a new feature, I temporarily turn off the LSP, and rely on the compiler to figure out where the code errors. Plain white text gives me the freedom to write whatever the fuck I want without any disruption. Of course, I eventually turn on the LSP again to fix the little issues.

You mean, like, support for the dict protocol for this program's interface? I am also scraping a dictionary's data, so I am a little confused.

http://catbox.moe. You can upload anything reasonable and legal upto 200 MB. Checkout their Patreon in case anybody wants to support them.

can't wait to see onlyfans girls selling used armpit wipes for $30 each

I don't care about video comments anymore; in my experience it was filled with attention-seeking content and incels trying to look cool. It's also full of bots in the reply sections.

Instead, I use mpv media player to watch YouTube. I pick a video off my recommendations or the subscription page then I copy the video link and then I just have to do mpv in my terminal. It's also much faster on my low-end PC.

It doesn't have sponser-block support, but it does have ad-blocker. I haven't really checked sponser-block support yet either.

Edit: found this for sponser-block support.

They force you to enter your phone number if your IP address is fishy to them, or if your email provider is not popular.

Flatpak just sucks for us with potato level hardware. It is much slower and crashes. Some things just didn't work until I got mine built from source using AUR scripts. I had checked the memory usage, the flatpak version of EasyEffects took much more memory than the native one. I don't want Linux to become Windows with this Flatpak nonsense that wastes my desktop's resources more than it should. Whenever I played music with EasyEffects flatpak, my CPU usage went up literally 80%, but with the native build, EE now does not go beyond like 5% CPU.

Any package that will force me to use Flatpak, I simply won't use it at all, or find some workaround. I will not donate a single penny to the project itself, but I will to the one who found the workaround.

The data collected from these tools are used to train models that detect cars and stuff with precise accuracy. Decades of data from millions of users each day. Once these are perfected, they will be sold to smart car users as auto-driving mode and what not. These services are likely going to be subscription based to maximize the profits.

Google Chat is trash. It can't beat Signal in terms of features and never will because Chat is by Google.

Making an Android or iPhone app can be a huge can of worms, all thanks to Google and Apple. However, with some basic knowledge of networking, you can easily go through the API documentation of LemmyNet and make some TUI based app for desktop. Python modules can simplify the process. If you will be using Python, there is a wrapper for this API too. See this list for wrappers for other languages. You can do all sorts of things with these wrappers.

Manjaro Linux is Arch Linux based. Manjaro and Arch relation is like Ubuntu and Debian relation.

Manjaro has its own set of issues that you may want to stay away from.

Edit: Ignore this comment, the image was loaded late. I thought it was a genuine question.

Yesterday, I made a choice that was very tough for me to make. So three years ago, I had a best friend, and we both liked each other. Things got hard because my feelings went too far, I became emotionally unstable and turned into an attention seeker. So because of that, I then ended the friendship.

Recently, she added me back. I thought we could be friends again because I felt like I improved my mental state in the last two years and won't turn into an attention seeker again. Well, a week later, I was the same as I was three years ago.

It was ruining my mental health severely. I couldn't focus on anything. But I still wasn't ready to give up on the friendship because she was a very nice friend, and I still liked her for some reason. So I refused to give up. But things got worse real quick, and then I decided to write a long message to her explaining why I can't continue this friendship and then I blocked her everywhere.

At the cost of ending all probabilities of a future with her, I feel much better now.

Gotta do something about this attention-seeking thing, though.

Hi, I spent some time trying out the dictd package. I also read this protocol's specification. As things are right now, each host-name would require its own parser, because I couldn't notice a very similar pattern between them. Webster, Jargon, wn, all these have their own standardization for including synonyms and examples.

The specification doesn't enforce any pattern on the definitions either. I don't think it's going to be very useful even if I do implement it because the parsers are going to be quite complicated.

That is really pretty. Thank you.

How did you achieve the floating bottom bar?

If you edit the bottom bar, under more options you can enable "Floating panel" to achieve this effect.

Lemmings have already beaten Reddit by being a better platform. All that is missing is content, which will take time.

They said competition, not alternatives. As things are right now, and knowing people, not just trying to make a technical point, Firefox is the only competition. 

Ah that. That shouldn't be a lot of work as all the visual stuff are done by separate functions. I can do it. I will look into it.

It was a decent experience, but it had too many features to meet my taste. I like basic things. Their automatic timer detection supports a lot of formats, but it doesn't support something like "in 5 minutes," but it does support "in 5 hours/months/weeks.". Too bad, I frequently forget to do things throughout the day, so I have trained myself to set up quick-to-do tasks to remind myself a few minutes later. But doing it an hour later is asking for too much. 

Which instance? We should maintain a list of these instances to ensure we don't lose our data due to idiots like them.

Good old Geary.

Some said that they had read Christian acknowledging Lemmy and that he said if it maintains this kind of user growth, he might work on Apollo for Lemmy.

I don't think they would make a model like this uncensored.

Of course! This is the original one. I used Photopea for it to meet my mood.

Full-body aches due to shivering from a high body temperature. However there can be other serious reasons, for those you should consult a doctor.

I pretty much only use Bard. Bing Chat is just too fucking slow. I have used Bard for my SQL stuff and other small coding stuff, and it works well & really fast. Bing Chat was rushed, and I doubt Microsoft is ever going to fix the shitty code that their employees wrote to meet the deadline.

These twitter losers are annoying. Someone tell Elon to fix his damn platform.

That's one of the benefits of being from a third world country. I am also from India and pay around $1.8 for a ticket.

I wonder what is its main selling point as a distro now though

I wanted to experience Arch and wanted something simple and quick (I was busy those days, so DIY Arch wasn't a choice). I tried EndeavourOS, but it wasn't simple: they make many configurations to the system which ruined the vanilla experience of all the WMs and DEs. I started looking for alternatives, I found Crystal to be attractive and well-maintained, so I went for it. I think it's selling point is being simple and as friendly and vanilla as possible.

We have estimated the carbon footprint of our AI chatbot and according to our first estimates it does not significantly increase the overall carbon footprint of Ecosia. The estimate takes into account that Ecosia searches are already 200% carbon negative,as we produce twice as much energy as is consumed by our search engine. We are currently working with two universities to refine our carbon footprint assessment.

Unfortunately the more important issue is that the leading language AI model providers are still not transparent about the energy consumption of their models, so without this clarity we can only make rough estimations of our impact. We will continue to monitor our energy usage and urge leading AI companies to do the same and be transparent about their impact.

I am not against it. I don't want to miss out on AI to support this search engine. It's quite helpful to me, and I assume many others. I think this search engine should compete with other search engines so that more users use it. I am already a fan of their Ecosia Chat; the interface is fast and the responses are even faster. Bing Chat is just awful; it's slow both in terms of interface and text generation

Zuckerberg can be an moron from a privacy perspective, but he sure does seem to respect stability.

I experienced this too. That's why I stopped asking them anything after my first query (why my keybindings were not working when defined in another file) and relied on guess work. I also found the community kind of dead, so you don't actually get the answers quicker than the guess work will get you there.
