The devs just said fuckit afterwards, as you do when you get a lawsuit saying your about to be so far in debt because of your side project that your whole life will be turned up side down.

I would have done the same.

A cursory search found that you can use extensions for cloudstream.

cloudstream.on.fleek.co/repos/

Searching for Audiobooks on that page lists a repo that has audiobook support.

I have never used it but it seems it might already exists…

I use wallabag, which then integrates into KOreader and others. A self hosted pocket.

I could download all my wallabag articles as EPUB and load them to an eink reader but most of my article reading is via their android app.

Initial steps with OPNSense

I am going to build a router with OPNSense (in Proxmox, on an HP thin client). I am stuck with setting up the networking (I have the Inel 4-port card). I don’t really know how to get started. Right now my device has one LAN cable going into it, and my consumer router is doing everything. I can set up a bridge for the other...

Yep. Keep the WAN port dhcp Client enabled if you can, just one less thing to worry about.

Also take note that when you change the static IP of the new router it would conflict with the old one (and dhcp might fail). So you might need to set your local clients IP. Take note of the configuration it has and the steps to set it manually.

The rest all sounds right.

Your router’s IP can be anything. Choose any internal IP address on your subnet.

You can have 2 routers on the same subnet just make sure you disable DHCP on the new one while you perform the setup of everything else.
Then when you want to switch over, toggle on dhcp on the new router and replace the cables and you should be fine. You’ll know it’s working when you plug into it and get a default route of the new router.

Size wise if you are already taking the hit for time, you are now better off using AV1 instead of h265. Combine it with 120k OPUS for the best size-quality.

Assuming your planning for the future as av1 support is mostly software decoding rather than hardware.

Yes

Believe it or not, AV1 is better for compression across the board. subclassy.github.io/compression

Nice work rocking the same picture since you were 10! Never mess with Kanna

What's the deal with the private trackers?

I’ve read on reddit I think that if you are torrenting using a private tracker you’re gonna be fine even without VPN. The question is: isn’t the tracker is just a server that leads my torrent client to the pieces of the file on the seeders? And the connection between me and the seeders is p2p, isn’t that type of...

DMCA only come from trackers that are open to the world. ISPs don’t snitch on you. They only do what is required of them by law, usually. (Forwarding DMCA complaints).
The copyright companies, connect to these trackers and perform regular torrent client requests, such as “hey, who is seeding this torrent”. And the tracker responds. They take note of the IPs and do whatever they do.

Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) can only find out that you are doing a P2P connection and possibly torrenting. Which in of itself is not illegal.

With private torrents you are blocked from the DMCA copyright companies because they cannot find out what torrents are on the trackers because you need the metadata of a torrent & the password to get the peer list.

A VPN only solves the problem where the ISP is hostile to you, the consumer and obfuscates who you are connecting too. With DPI and packet analysis (which is slightly expensive) they could figure out you are torrenting via a VPN with a high degree of certainty. Butt at the end of the day, all they would see is encrypted packets. This data is no different than telling your torrent client to Force Encryption, which everyone should do and I get annoyed all the time when people don’t have it on.

Tldr,

  • VPN only blocks ISP from seeing unencrypted P2P traffic and makes it harder to identify.
  • DMCA companies can only access public trackers peer lists where it gets its information from

For screenripping, the concepts are:

  • you have to have a client that can play the content
  • output via a HDMI splitter
  • record the screen from the second computer
  • you now have a 4k recording

That constitutes a webrip.

A webdl means you need to crack widevine or whatever protections Netflix has in place.

How you crack that means you most likely need a L1 key which is the highest protection and no one is going to tell you how to get one or crack it. If they do they risk making their way & key public and then it will be patched and “everyone” will be worse off.

If you are interested have a look at the l3 protections : github.com/cryptonek/widevine-l3-decryptor

I had no idea that you could download movies from the 90ies from archive.org (jeena.net)

I couldn’t find the Flintstones movie from 1994 anywhere but googling it I found it here archive.org/details/the-flintstones_202304 and you can either download it via torrent or directly. On top of it it says that the movie is CC0 which means Public Domain. But that can’t really be, it’s only 29 years old....

Yeah wtf. How’d the DMCA bots find these posts :(

Osmand+ is the pro version of Open Street Map which has great trails.
It’s free via fdroid on android.

If you don’t need to edit the text that is in the PDF you could use GIMP. Ie, making lines or adding new text, or adding images.

Libredraw is probably the best pdf editor, but has some issues when I last used it ages ago so hopefully it’s better now.

Rpi with Libreelec. Then with all the add-ons you need.

I have a Pi4B but with a m2 drive as the OS instead of the sdcard which I highly recommend due to the amount of read/write downloading files does.

A pi4 should have 0 trouble (via ethernet) doing anything you are saying.

From what I could tell your setup is internet -> pi4 -> appletv. If the pi & applet are on Wifi that would be a huge issue. The most any wifi can realistically do is 270mbps and that is when you are next to the damn thing.
As let’s say you are streaming 1080p content which requires around 20-50mbps. Router to pi (20mbps) + pi to router (20mbps) + router to Apple TV 20mbps), so you’d already be pushing 60mbps at best internally all over wifi.

Temporarily add cables to everything if possible or move the pi onto a cable as a minimum. then you will cut down on the back-and-forth it needs to do over wifi so then your router can dedicate all its bandwidth to sending the data to the appletv.

If it’s all on cables already then I guess it’s a filesystem issue, as your not using a SSD but using a SD card. Run iostat via command line while streaming and see if there is any big “iowait” values. I’d there is then your sd card is not keeping up with the total bandwidth

I max out my 100 down, still not able to get fiber here.

Half a gig? Doesn’t sound like a problem to me! sounds like you are hitting ISP limits maybe?. Isnt it ~600/700 average?

reddthat,
@reddthat@reddthat.com avatar

Probably here.

Usenight is my current cheapest/fav for all new content. 20Euro for a year? Find me a better deal. I’ll wait. (And payable in crypto!)
