I almost took offense to this remark

Then just remembered in my dorm there was

A guy downloading torrents sans encryption

(Too poor for VPNs? Could be, but still)

So zoomers know the gist, but it's as if

The art is half-remembered, so to Bards

Pre-dating Homer, all confused at letters

And only knowing how the "viewer" gasped

As if he were the victim of a blow.

tyft - i'm going to test this out. using transmission over vpn to download top gun maverick. if it's really this simple, i'll set up the plex/nas.

can you explain the latter, a bit more? am i running a plex server on my pc and pointing to a directory on the nas for storage, or can a synology nas run the plex server itself?

*edit* lol - fhd movie downloaded in like 2 min

there are different ways you can set it up but i run plex directly on the synology NAS so that it's "always on" and not subject to the state of my computers. I don't run my torrenting app on synology cuz getting a VPN set up on a NAS seemed like a hassle, so it seemed more straightforward to just make sure the VPN was on on my main computer and torrent as needed from that. btw people on here have recommended alternate setups (such as "Seedboxes") but I haven't had the time to look into them and am happy with my current solution.

i use Infuse instead of the plex app for playback cuz it supports speeding up videos (yes yes I'm weird/autistic etc, thanks). infuse also has the advantage of doing "direct playback" so that it can just play whatever format, whereas if you use the plex app for playback there often needs to be a conversion that happens first.

overall i'm very happy with it and find that it meets all my COONSOOMING needs. i can do remote access when i'm traveling (through e.g. ipad) and also download videos offline. and i don't need to worry about streaming fees or shows i like getting yanked to another platform ever....it's all local

you dont need ssd to stream, even 90+ mbps bitrate files. you will get more storage per $ from spinning disks.

i use nvidia shield tv pro as clients in my home. direct play. atmos, dv, hdr10+, it will play anything.

so i just bought an empty DS1621+ (on a black friday sale) and put my own drives in it. i got 2 16TB drives set up in SHR (so 16TB effective storage). because this is a media server, i did not even consider SSDs due to cost considerations. i've had it over a year and am only now down to about 25% of storage capacity (i also do backups of my main Mac).

i was doing NAS for awhile and then i went all in and built a storage server that is on 24/7. server also handles home automation and home network. it has 8x8tb for storage, effective 59tb online, run by a supermicro jbod controller card (broadcom chip). it took awhile but i found software called stablebit drivepool which pools disks and presents as one drive, software striped, since it is slow moving data (media, backups, etc.) i am okay with this instead of raid or mirror. it also allows different make/model/capacity of drive and hot swap. since it is all one machine, i use crash42 small business crashplan which is unlimited cloud backup for $10 a month for one machine. i laugh that i backup over 30tb for $10 a month. i have been running this setup for almost 8 years now.

sounds cool. i considered building a server but just didn't want to deal with it at the end of the day. decided i really wanted a pre-configured solution. i also don't have the NAS backed up because the cloud solutions for NASes all seemed too spendy to be worth it for my use case and i can't be bothered with rotating USB drive shit for what's ultimately a server full of torrents

Yeah. It’s pretty funny how Big Corpo defeated piracy by…providing increasingly easier and easier interfaces to Consume, to the point where the population is now too dumb to consume via any method other than the official retail interfaces for products

The System ended up…unironically working, actually

Younger people do not know what a "folder" is:

"Garland thought it would be an easy fix. She asked each student where they’d saved their project. Could they be on the desktop?

Perhaps in the shared drive? But over and over, she was met with confusion. “What are you talking about?” multiple students inquired.

Not only did they not know where their files were saved — they didn’t understand the question."

pirating is fun, i have a 50 tb plex server on a 10 gig connection & have it automated to where it downloads basically every movie and show (except marvel shit) and share it with tons of people. Btw nobody watches movies on it i think everyone's attention spans have been destroyed
