It rips the disks 1:1 into MKV format. Honestly, you could probably leave it there and skip the long Handbrake conversion. DVDs are only around 5GB of files.
Also when installing MakeMKV be sure to Google for the free product key from the developers.
I use ProtonVPN for everything, and I’ve started noticing more and more sites simply blocking me if I try to connect to them through ProtonVPN. As much as it sucks, I’ve more or less become acclimated to having to deal with an increased number of captchas while using a VPN; but I’m pretty angry about being blocked...
I’ve had this exact scenario happen with my Amazon account. One the one hand its annoying, but on the other I don’t want them to make it easier for someone in another country to order stuff using my account and credit card.
Have you actually verified whether you can turn this connectivity off? I know on other new cars it’s embedded in the electronics with no on/off button.
Just a fair warning, if you already use the LiveTV option with a TV Tuner or IPTV, I have yet to find a way to get them blended together with the fake TV channels in the guide on Plex even with xTeve outputting a valid m3u/xmltv. It’s either one or the other unfortunately.
Emby did work correctly so I’m assuming it’ll also work correctly in Jellyfin too.
This show just came to an end and it’s got to be one of the worst shows I’ve ever seen, but somehow always entertaining. Preferable if the show has a large amount of viewers to trash it and laugh at it.
I’m almost 40 and the CW had the same shit back when I was a teenager with shows like Smallville. It’s crazy they’re still following the same exact formula today 20+ years later.
It’s a well-known fact that Google spies on users, which isn’t anything new. However, the fact that they are now using this as a reference in a marketing meme is insulting....
Is it shallow, or petty, to decide based on name alone? Yeah, pretty much, but there’s probably something, a product or service or site, that the name has made you gloss right over it or jump to it ASAP....
Ask Lemmy is a place to ask thought provoking questions. The mods have been lenient with some of the recent posts on the basis that they must provoke thought for some people, but after seeing two posts essentially saying “what do you think of my stick?”, I believe we can raise the bar a bit on what kind of thoughts we want...
Would love to know what you guys think and your reasoning for it. I’m starting to see a lot of Apple Watches/Fitbits/Galaxy Watches in my area compared to more traditional timepieces.
You don’t have to get a cellular connected watch. My Samsung operates off wifi and Bluetooth only.
While I wouldn’t say they’ll revolutionize your life, they are useful for telling time, notifications, navigation, step tracking, exercise tracking, sleep tracking, controlling music, etc. If you find a good deal on one you might try it out. My battery lasted about 3 days new and is down to about 2 days now but I’ve already bought a replacement battery which looks easy enough to swap.
In my experience, files are named pretty well these days to include resolution, source, the actual title and release year, video format, audio format, language, and release group.
Try looking at the way music files are named and you’ll see how awful naming conventions can get.
This is a $1 dollar increase from what I was paying. But soon subscribers will be $15/month, then $20/month. I wonder how much of deezer’s income actually goes to the artists.
Let us not forget how these same publishers used to price gouge us on these CDs before we had any legitimate alternatives. In the '90s, they’d charge $20-$25 for an album with 10 songs on it, most of them filler. With inflation, that’d be equivalent to $40-$50 today.

Backing up DVDs to mp4?
Maybe the wrong place to ask, so sorry to the mods if thats the case....
What can we do about major sites blocking VPN providers?

People of Lemmy that take more than 5 seconds to start your car and drive, what are you doing?
As the title says…what are you all doing?
Which things have you avoided or embraced on the name alone?

How to exclude SSH port from VPN so you can remote access while VPN is up
I solved this problem for myself yesterday and couldn’t find the answer anywhere online (clearly stated), so here’s what I did....
Do you prefer to wear a smartwatch or a regular watch?
