It took me awhile to figure out the correct setup to get Sonarr, qbittorrent, and Jellyfin all to play nicely together, but once you get it figured out, it transparently addresses the problems of folder structure and allowing you to keep seeding content.

I had the same issue as you, initially, where I had to do a ton of library maintenance in Jellyfin. But since using Sonarr to monitor and import media from torrents to a structured media library, Jellyfin has been pretty hands-off

I do. I mean, its not like I’m going to fuck up “add 2 cups of water, boil for 5 minutes, drain, add seasoning packet” right?

Wait, shit, was it “boil for 2 minutes”? OK cool, 5 minutes.

Boil 5 minutes then… add milk? Oh, no milk… cool

Holy shit, so much this!

It’s honestly wild how far that narrative that he made some edgy comments has gone, to the point where it’s just being taken as fact in headlines now.

He barely even mentioned Kirk, and just stated that MAGA is trying really hard to claim the shooter was not one of them–didn’t even make any assertions about the actual shooter or their motives.

Anyone claiming he made disrespectful or inflammatory comments about Kirk is ignorant or a hypocrite.

I think you need to look at the points above, where it lists the cases where VPN is recommended:

When VPNs are Needed Highly Restrictive Countries: China or Australia where internet access is heavily restricted ISP Throttling: If your ISP specifically throttles or blocks BitTorrent traffic Legal Requirements: If local laws require VPN use for P2P/BitTorrent activities

Not sure where you’re located, but in most of the USA, not using a VPN runs you the risk of at least getting a nastygram from your ISP. How much that means to you depends on how worried you are about getting your service disconnected or sued by the owner of whatever you’re seeding. For me personally, a VPN is a no-brainer.

ETA: I may have missed the subtler point of your post. I personally do not have my *arr apps behind a VPN, only my torrenting app. I think that is what the wiki is specifically addressing.

This is one of the great things about the *arrs. They will create a hardlink to the file in your media folder structure so that you can keep seeding and have a well organized/named media library without wasting storage.

Prior to that, I also just saved my torrents directly to my media library, and used the torrent manager to rename the local file properly. Same thing effectively, just a lil more work.

No, I wasn’t doing any pre-processing other than “properly” formatting the track name and folder structure. So I can’t really blame Jellyfin, because I know that tagging is part of the best process workflow. But I’ve just found Navidrome seems to be a little more hands off.

I’m not the person you were replying to, but the only issue I ever had using Jellyfin for music was that it seemed.a little finicky about matching artist/album when pulling down metadata, and I had to do more manual intervention.

The actual streaming functionality seemed perfectly fine, but I personally settled on Navidrome for music.

Yes, that’s what that word means!

Yep, you’re right. I have never been inside a mosque before, so the stairs looked very odd out of context.

Thank you! The uncropped version of that photo makes a whole lot more sense!

That background has to be AIgen, right? It’s a doorway in the middle of a an open area of a church, no walls around it, leading to super steep stairs that appear to go nowhere, and… carpeted floor?

There are kind of two different questions here.

First of all yes, humans are pretty good at telling whether someone is looking them directly in the eyes or not. So if you were to ask someone directly whether you are looking in their eyes or some other part of the face, they would probably be right most of the time.

The second part is whether they would notice it consciously without bring asked. That’s a little trickier. I suspect if you were staring directly at some other part of their face, people might get self conscious (do I have a zit? Is my nose that huge?) But looking at a spot between their eyes, or shiftng your gaze periodically would probably fly under the radar.

I love Biscoff cookies, but had never had them outside of a snack on a plane either. First time I realized they sold them at stores was when my local Costco started carrying them in giant boxes, which is a little like being Sir Gallahad the Chaste, and stumbling into the castle Anthrax.

Aldi has a pretty goof knockoff version in normal size packages if you have problems with moderation 😉

But to answer your question, a long time ago, my wife and I did the “Love you”, “Love you too”, “Love you… three?” thing, and apparently got up to 5 before we decided it was silly. Many years later, “Love you five” is the normal response to “Love you”.

I’m playing that game right now, but I think I need to turn up the music volume. I’ve heard the doom-style music ramp up during fights, but I haven’t paid it much attention.

Same, except it’s the Doom 2016 OST for me.

Type and compute until it’s done!
