Women's rights in the US?

Just set up sonarr for TV shows (radarr for movies, or any or the other arr suite apps for their media). I usually watch last week tonight on Monday mornings, but the file is normally there before midnight. Sonarr automatically looks for it in multiple torrent indexers once it's been released, sends a torrent file to qbittorrent (matching my quality settings, seeder counts, etc), then copies and renames the downloaded file to my Plex TV folder so I have it available very soon after it's released

I will, because it's $10 a month for the privilege to watch their content with ads, and the price is going up again soon.

Well yeah, assuming you can install it on all devices you would want to use, and that it lets you use network storage, and that the app doesn't conflict with other apps using the same network storage. A lot of apps don't have a specific app for Android, Apple, Linux, macos, and windows because that's a lot to build and maintain. A deployed webapp works on any device with a browser, and you don't need to configure every device to use the same networked storage.

Control over your own data (if you mean regular program as cloud apps), or accessible on multiple devices and to different users if you mean an offline computer app

Not everyone has the technical ability or hardware to selfhost immich, even just for LAN access. If I tried to teach my wife enough about docker/docker-compose to get immich set up, running, kept updated, and troubleshooting when it has problems... I would probably be limping away with a fork stuck in my leg. Could it be a fun project for people that are interested in it? Definitely, but most people want an easy cloud service that works as easily as data-gathering alternatives over something they have to maintain themselves even in the form of occasional docker-compose pull

Matrimony sounds like macaroni - i.e. macaroni and cheese

Don't forget, they're also raising all of their subscription prices in like a month.

Highly recommend getting a pizza steel (a pizza stone works fine too, but a pizza steel is where it's at) and making pizza from scratch. Initial cost of the steel, then after that pizza just costs a few bucks in ingredients to make quite a few very tasty pizzas

They open sourced it, so it's just a matter of time now. Linux is still a relatively small amount of their business though so they probably aren't going to make it a priority in-house unfortunately. As a Linux user, I'm well aware that we're still a vocal minority of users

JD Vance (or at least his staff) called the mayor of Springfield before they said anything about it. The mayor told them there was zero proof that it was happening at all, then Vance went ahead and said it was happening anyway.

I would argue that the couch surfing/fucking was verified more than the immigrants eating pets story because no one officially said that it was false before it was spread.

Man, I'm so glad I shelled out $300 for a 16tb HDD and taught my wife how to download movies and shows from a nice web interface (overseer) that I'm self hosting. By the end of the year it will have already paid for itself. No more ads, subscription fees, not being able to watch something because another service owns it, movies and shows moving to other services, shitty UI changes, password sharing crackdowns, or any of the other shitty things about streaming.

Remember kids, if buying it isn't owning it, it's not theft to get it without paying. (Moral advice only, not legal advice)

I've been trying to find a game that I played probably 10 or so years ago. I thought the name was digiminer or digimon or something like that but I know it's not those games.

The game (from what I remember) was about mining as a robot or in a ship of some sort. It was 2d. Whenever you mined areas it dropped pixels to be picked up that you had to fly/jump/move over to. I think it had a vacuum that you equipped to grab everything? You could upgrade and such to mine faster/larger and have a better pickup area. The mining area was mainly on the right side of the screen I think, the left side was all empty. The game was fully free, and I'm pretty sure that to run it you had it all downloaded in a file then ran the .exe.

I could be getting some of the ideas wrong, it's been a long time since I played or saw the game If anyone can help identify this game I'd appreciate it! I've been trying to find it for a few years, I remember it being a fun time sink

Edit: the game was dig-n-rig by digipen

 

I've been using Linux for the better part of 4 years so I'm not new to it, but I've always learned stuff on an as-needed basis. Today I ran into an issue that I want to prevent in the future since I had a mini heart attack thinking about how my last backup on this system was... Never since I'm an idiot who forgot to set it up like I have on my laptop. Here are my steps:

  • Ran sudo pacman -Syu; sudo pacman -Syy like I do every few days
  • packages updated
  • restarted computer
  • can only boot into emergency mode

The journal was really long so I moved past it and went to the pacman logs, linux had updated from 6.4.3.1-1 to 6.4.3.1-2. Nothing else was important enough to cause the system to only boot into emergency (gcc, vbox, some libs) so I did a quick pacman -U to the cached 6.4.3.1-1 version for both Linux and Linux headers and rebooted - hurrah it was fixed! But I have no idea why it happened, or how to prevent it.

Has anyone else ran into this issue when updating? Any advice for preventing future crashes or issues like this so I don't fear updating?

Edit: Thanks to everyone for your advice! I ended up following multiple bits of advice. I reinstalled arch to get btrfs as the filesystem (didn't have anything important other than some docked-compose files and books yet) and grabbed the linux-lts kernal as a backup as well. I haven't configured snapper yet, but it's on my list of things to do.
