Lemm.ee refugee here!

It’s so worth it. I spent many years pirating stuff manually by downloading the torrent file, adding it to my torrent program, unzipping it, and using a file browser to select game.of.thrones.s01e01.1080p.proper.webrip.whatever.fuckme.mkv. One day I was like fuck it, we’ll do it live and I dove into the whole plex/sonarr/radarr/jackett thing and it streamlined the piracy problem to the point that I very rarely even have to do anything beyond opening up a web browser and typing the name of whatever I’d like to have added to plex and the rest just happens automatically.

It grabs only the torrents in the language you specify with exactly the bitrate and resolution you specify, it unzips stuff and puts it in a correctly named directory with organized filenames and grabs the movie posters and thumbnails. I almost never even have to log into my torrent site. I usually only go there so my account doesn’t get disabled for not logging in frequently enough.

As a bonus sonarr and Radarr have a calendar page so you can see when the stuff you want is expected to air in the future.

Sonarr and Radarr can do this for you. If you have a movie or show that you are interested in that hasn’t released yet you can add it to the list and the program will automatically grab it from your preferred torrent site and download it for you as soon as the file is available.

It’s really nice when I forget that I added something and then six months later I see that it’s been downloaded automatically and is ready to watch.

I wonder why eating drugs never became as popular as drinking alcohol. Obviously you can put THC in food but imagine if instead of going to the bar for a beer you went to the restaurant to eat some THC infused food or food infused with some other drug that can be taken orally. Eating food has the same level of social acceptability as drinking a liquid and is similarly as natural evolutionarily but it isn’t a thing people really do.

Maybe it’s because the effects of alcohol have a quick onset which edible THC lacks? What about infusing food with some other oral drug with a quicker onset? I can’t come up with any off the top of my head though.

Yeah the whole thing with what’s his face was disappointing. I agree with you about the descriptive nature of books in general though.

I personally think that this is a rare case where both the books and the TV series are equally good. The Expanse is both my favorite TV series and my favorite book series. What did you like better about the books?

Redial? What is this, 1992?

The meme could also say to hit *69 which would imply that the mother was the last one to call him.

I respectfully disagree. I have a similar green strap on my Seagull watch which has blue hands and I think it’s a great combo. Different strokes and all that! Do what makes you tick (pun intended)

I’m pretty sure I like nato straps on any watch. Not only because they look cool but also because I like the way they keep the back of the watch from sticking to my wrist when I get a little sweaty.

I didn’t realize the version I knew wasn’t the original!

I think I like the cover better but it’s cool to learn, thanks for sharing the original.

Yes my incorrect assumption was due to the fact that sshd came pre-installed with the OS unlike plex that came with its own service file or Jackett that I had to create the service file manually. Sshd is a program like any other that gets started by systemd. I appreciate the clarification!

That makes a lot of sense. I actually wrote my own unit files for Jackett and to autostart a virtual machine and moved them into multi-user target wants using the enable command. I guess my thought was that by adding the unit file to systemd it made the program part of systemd in a way but now that I think more about it, saying any of these programs are part of systemd doesn’t actually make sense. Just because sshd came pre-installed with Ubuntu doesn’t make it part of systemd any more than plex is part of systemd.

Thanks for helping me understand!

Such a banger and a super memorable music video to back it up. Love RTJ and DJ Shadow. Check out his song Organ Grinder for a glimpse into his non-hip-hop material.

Is sshd really not part of systemd? I seem to remember needing to run systemctl restart sshd after making changes to the sshd config file but it’s been a while since I’ve done that.

I also use systemd to automatically start plex, sonarr, radarr, transmission, and maybe a few other things as well and if they need to be restarted I’d use a similar command on Ubuntu. Or I’d run systemctl status plexmediaserver to see if it was running correctly.

I’m not an expert though so maybe I’m doing it wrong or using the wrong terminology.
