I know free vpns usually are not good, but right now I am not in a position to pay for a vpn. I found Privado VPN and it doesn’t keep logs and is based in Switzerland. It has a data limit for free users, but do you think its safe for torrenting?
Can’t you download those pictures locally? It would be good practice anyway to not rely on Facebook of all places to host your beloved photos indefinitely
Get your head out of the gutter. There is a difference between file and philia, the former being something managed by this program and the latter being Greek for “love”. Further, the phil- prefix/suffix is used in many words which don’t mean what you seem to associate it with. Take philosophy for example—the love of wisdom.

Wanted to ask if there was another premium (or free) surefire way to get movies and TV shows in high quality without much hassle?

Hi, just recently it’s foss had an article about homelabs. Of course I digged in, since there is a small nuc working tirelessly in the corner of my routers closet. So far it just crawls some web pages for me and sends emails accordingly to my filters. So I hoped to find new exciting stuff to let it crunch through. The articles...
It is much less of a PITA than it is often made out to be. I made the transition just recently and had both Plex and Jellyfin running simultaneously for about a month. I used that time to just go through and adjust my progress through my home videos on Jellyfin so I remembered where I left off before shutting down Plex entirely. As long as your directory structure is well organized, it shouldn’t be hard to switch to Jellyfin at all, and if your directories aren’t organized… well it’s a good opportunity to organize them. For large libraries, the *arr stack is great for that.
Overview: Intel network cards come in two product lines, with i225-V/i226-V belonging to the consumer-grade line. The -LM suffix denotes the commercial-grade product line. By default, Windows Server only installs network card drivers for the commercial-grade line. However, it’s possible to forcibly install them using modified...
I did this or something close to it years ago when running windows server. Was a bit of a hassle, but I got things running ok. Now I’m on Linux server with the same machine and it’s not a problem there.
Linux has been better for my server needs generally anyway, but I’m happy to be reminded of yet another reason to stay off windows
When I was a kid and Facebook was new, I remember everyone wanting an account. The way I see it, Facebook just kept those users who wanted it when it was new. Who’s to say that the same won’t be true of TikTok later?
Pokémon is the absolute worst. Have you ever tried to organize the Pokémon show?? It’s a mess. Without being able to adjust what metadata Sonarr uses and consequently how it organizes the file structure, Jellyfin doesn’t understand what is happening and none of the metadata is correct. It’s insane. It completely goes against the main reason I use *arr, and I will not manually be organizing over 1,000 episodes of Pokémon manually.
Yes, but as TVDB is 1) not as open/free as TMDB and 2) blatantly incorrect about some metadata information, the problem does not here end. I’d like to use TMDB as my metadata provider.
I can’t find it now, but there was that one text post that went something like “1. Copying a movie costs the studio money, 2. Download a movie, 3. Make 1000 copies, 4. Studio goes bankrupt”

It was so easy when I was growing up. I would just type my search into LimeWire and if it turned out to be weird porn I would delete it. Then we had The Pirate Bay, and I could go through reviews to see whether something was a virus or not. Now all public sites I am aware of are riddled with viruses, and I am warned that...
I’ve never used the qBittorrent search function so if everything mentioned in my earlier comment is included in qBittorrent directly, then I don’t know. Use what works best for you. As I understand it, the main appeal of the *arr stack is that it does everything automatically and without you having to intervene to get what you want.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but I imagine that qBittorrent doesn’t automatically search for better versions of your media, automatically rename and move files to your specification, automatically evaluate search results to choose a download that matches your desired quality, automatically search for desired media when it is released (like new episodes of a currently running TV show), automatically import subtitle files or extras to your library, or automatically grab metadata for all your media.
is Privado VPN good?
