There’s a pillow in the coffin.

3 on 3 off, with 997 weeks.

My mother died at 78, and she’s probably pretty dry at this point. You could probably just use a sharpie. You also might want to bring lube.

Put that on your resume while waiting in the unemployment line.

Don’t name your kid Al

Good to know. Thanks. I’m definitely looking for alternatives these days. Even though I’m self hosting Plex, I don’t trust it can work without their cloud and they will probably cut it off or limit it at some point.

Can it import my Plex settings, categorized titles, and watched lists for all my users? And whatever other things I’m not thinking of…

It’s on my radar, but I have a lot of data, custom images, etc. it would need to be 1:1

I did too. Didn’t it sound like such an innocent crime these days?

This, and, I think the “AI” investigations the companies are doing is revealing a lot of “what is it you say you do here?” moments. (An Office Space quote, which is required viewing for anyone commenting on corporate jobs)

I think a lot of companies are finding that a lot of jobs are expendable. Now, before you all accuse me of siding with corporations, I feel they aren’t going to just keep the workers who have been pulling their weight this whole time, they’re gonna slash randomly or by popularity and just say “work harder or leave.”

The next 10 years is gonna a clusterfuck.

I mean, Lemmy.ml is all pro-Russia. They don’t even have to “hack”

They never had a job to begin with.

I do use handbrake. I should have been more specific. I just mean’t to say that it’s not like a bunch of low quality Pirate Bay downloads. That actual discs were used. So many discs. So many that I actually have a pile of dead readers because I used them to death.

Uhmmm so, yeah. It’s… a significant investment. Let’s say, I look for HDD sales constantly and I’m eating less these days to feed my habit.

For the curious, I run on Synology hardware. Most of the drives are 20-24TB each.

I have their 12 bay sever with two 12 expansions (36 total) and then another 8 bay server with two 5 expansions.

I started with the 8, and when I quickly hit 18 total drives with redundancy… I realized this was going to be a lot more than I had initially planned for.

These are also direct disc rips. No downloads. That’s actual discs in hand, ripping, saving, typing. It’s mostly from my amazing city library, the local video store, borrowing, and then the rest are purchases.

And I’ll answer the next question, dual income no kids… and my partner shares my interest (or at least benefits!). They always know what to get me for a present.

Thanks for the tip.

Lucky you. I’ve got almost 750Tb the transition might be rough.

Was the conversion easy? Could you keep your watchlist and whatnot?

I have… a lot of data.

Unless, like me, you got it for $49.

Still, jellyfin.
