Just because something is old knowledge doesn’t mean it’s common knowledge!

People get so weird about that. Yeah I knew, but before I knew, I didn’t.

Yes and no. They do have some connections to NZB, but primarily used for torrents.

Search on sonarr for TV > add series to sonarr > search for series by episode or season > sonarr asks prowlarr (or jackett) to search torrent providers > find and add episode or season > prowlarr finds torrent and sends to sonarr > sonarr sends torrent to your torrent client to download (I use qbittorrent) > done.

If setup correctly, once the download is finished, sonarr will copy the series to your media server folder so it’s accessible from plex/jellyfin/emby/what have you.

It does leave the initial files in the torrent software for seeding purposes. I’m sure there is a setting in there somewhere to disable that, but always seed!

The search can be entirely automated too. Handful of apps integrate with sonarr/radarr so you can have your server users request shows and sonarr would find them and add them automatically for you.

You can also specify release type in quality and specifically if it’s a rip or HDTV recording, assuming the provider reports that which most do.

Lastly, you can specify by size ranges. It takes a good while to find something you like, but to keep your server from filling up, you can limit the max size for a single episode or movie (in radarr).

My only real complaint is the automated search in sonarr is by episode so you can get a mixed back of quality that way. You can manually search for an entire season. It can’t correctly deal with a full series release on its own so some manual work would be needed there.

It’s effort for sure, but worth it.

Imo, depending on the age of the “older” games, it may not be worth it to do an SSD and go for pure storage with an external HDD.

Alternatively, if you’re dying for speed, get this or similar and an M.2 case that matches your IO

You guys are kicking some serious ass with the updates and features.

I moved back to android off ios and the only real app I missed was apollo, so this is really scratching that itch!

I am still looking forward to sync for lemmy, but honestly with the rate that this is being worked on with this passion, I may just have to stick with weyager

Honestly, as a smoker, it’s a godsend. The smoke goes away so quickly, it has higher nicotine than cigarettes when purchased the RIGHT way, and since I can now smoke inside, I can puff on it all day every day as I work from home!

In all seriousness, it’s worse imo. It sets the precedent from the 50s of smoking EVERYWHERE and now without any of the negative outward effects like smell or yellowing of the teeth/walls.

It’s honestly made my addiction worse. To each their own for sure, but in my experience it just made my bad habit SLIGHTLY healthier, but much more accessible.

It requires a significant amount of willpower to break the addiction, but for those of us that do not, definitely do not pick this up. It will not help. If you have that willpower, it is useful.

Being that I now vape from the time I wake up to the time I go to bed simply due to accessibility, I’d say it’s worse.

Honestly I’m not yet in that camp. Sure for short term it is for a fact much better than analog smokes, but we know nothing of the long term.

Gotta remember: for quite a while, doctors recommended cigarettes. Sure tech and general knowledge have improved drastically since then, but the method of proving a hypothesis is still done the same way: testing.

I hope it is better. Maybe I’m just getting jaded in my age.

God dammit. I haven’t been diagnosed but literally every single post to the letter sounds like me.

I REALLY need to get medicated.
