CmdrShepard,

I know there are several similar channels so maybe I’m mixed up, but wasn’t this the one where they found out the guy was using machinery to create his projects off camera and claiming it was all done by hand?

CmdrShepard,

It’s unbelievable to see him in Slow Horses and then see him in this article photo. He’s so good at disguising himself.

Questions regarding Old-new Hard drives

Hi, I seek your help once again. I’m in the need of upgrading my storage now and I found what I consider to be a good deal via Amazon on an older gen enterprise WD drive that supposedly hasn’t been used, but I’ll let the power on hours tell me the truth. The price is about 16usd/TB and I’m wondering if this is a bad idea...

CmdrShepard,

$18/TB is a crazy high price. I’ve bought most of all my WD drives new for <$15/TB by waiting for sales on Easystore/Element drives

CmdrShepard, (edited )

Don’t use Amazon or Ebay, use something like serverpartdeals.com so you know you’re not buying from some fly-by-night company that’ll disappear when you try to do a warranty claim.

CmdrShepard,

Considering this guy is looking to slap some drives into his personal computer in order to store some movies, who gives a shit if they’re enterprise drives or not? I have numerous 6 year old ‘junk’ drives in my server that haven’t given me a single issue the entire time powered on 24/7. It’s not like he’s looking for drives to put in a Facebook datacenter.

CmdrShepard,

I bought my last 14TB drive with them after buying new ones over the last 6 years. I definitely wish I would have heard about them sooner as I could have a lot more storage at a lot lower price if I had.

CmdrShepard,

It’s probably good advice to eat at least one meal a day

What's the purpose of multiple quality profiles existing in parallel in Radarr/Sonarr?

Well hello there, I’m diving into the *arr suite of things currently and am trying to setup everything to my usecase. I think I mostly already understood, how a single quality profile works within itself, like upgrading quality and so on. But what I didn’t get yet, why would I want multiple different quality profiles to...

CmdrShepard,

Pretty much. I have 1080P Bluray for movies, two 720p for TV, and a “give me the lowest resolution available” for stuff my users request but I feel has little value (like reality TV). For TV I have two 720p profiles but one maxes out at 720p with only lower resolutions below the cutoff while the other includes 1080p but only if 720p isn’t available meaning they’re placed below 720p in order of priority.

CmdrShepard,

Are you really trying to take the moral high ground while arguing that the term “idiot” should be revived and solely reserved for people with mental disabilities related to intelligence? JFC this is what happens when you take sniffing your own farts a little too far.

It’s like you want to enshrine the word in its most hateful form rather than allow its meaning to be diluted into something powerless and inconsequential.

I just deleted my entire library and redownloaded it.

A lot of my files were shitty 480p versions of movies from the Napster days. Now they’re all 1080p, with a few 720p exceptions (mainly tv series episodes). All in all 500 something files in total. Now just watching uTorrent slowly download them all. Hopefully my VPN keeps the eyes off of me…

CmdrShepard,

NordVPN also doesn’t have port forwarding so you’re unlikely to be able to seed anything back. This’ll get you banned from private trackers and goes against the whole concept of torrenting.

CmdrShepard,

A lot of the private trackers I use specifically block its usage.

CmdrShepard, (edited )

Yes I was actually sad to leave Mullvad, and the developer was pretty cool about giving refunds, so I’d definitely go back if things changed in the future.

AirVPN does have port forwarding and is what I wound up switching to. So far, everything is working fine and there are a decent number of servers available.

CmdrShepard,

What type of business is this, say if I was trying to find a similar one in my area?

CmdrShepard,

Are we sure it’s not a token for the James Webb Telescope?

CmdrShepard,

I think it’s more nefarious than that. Many departments want a good 'ol boys club where they’re the ultimate authority and they want their officers to fall in line rather than question department actions.

CmdrShepard,

Works the same for finding a burned out bulb on a string of Christmas lights too.

CmdrShepard,

My kid did mine too. My #3 song was “Everything is Awesome” from the Lego Movie.

CmdrShepard,

I followed the instructions and opted out yet I’m still seeing what my users watched along with getting emails listing the same. I’m certain none of my users are interested in this and likely skipped through the pop-up without reading/comprehending it.

CmdrShepard,

Enabling internet access is also a huge pain unless you’re willing to raw dog the entire internet.

CmdrShepard,

Which is still an issue. “Opting-out” means opting-out not halfway opting-in.

CmdrShepard,

TVDB* or TMDB*

CmdrShepard,

It was forked so long ago that people born on that date are now legally able to drive on public roads.

CmdrShepard, (edited )

Having the ability to see it versus having it pushed in your face in the app and in weekly emails are two completely separate things.

CmdrShepard,

It’s not easier than configuring each one once and then letting them do all the work from there on out. Not trying to convince you to use them but they’re pretty damn great especially when you’re trying to watch multiple TV shows or see a movie that came out a lot sooner than you thought it would.
