Some of the best piracy options might cost you.. Drebid, Usenet, Private Indexers, Seedboxes. They all cost money to varying degrees.

Hell if I'm being honest with myself, I've sunk way more into piracy than I probably would have spent just paying for a streaming service. What with building my server and buying extra hard drives, buying blocks of data, paying for API access. That stuff can add up. I know I could do free alternatives, but I really like how I have things set up now, and I love building my media collection and sharing it with my friends and family.

Even though?

Can we not put deep fakes/ AI generated images and videos here? There are AI specific communities that would love this.

Lots of exercise and a proper diet, I'd bet.

I see no flashing.

Lol your post bot forgot the image

Usenet. Been using it consistently for over 10 years now. I only torrent when I can't find something on usenet. So not too often. Plus Usenet just maxes out my download speed on everything. It's so freaking fast compared to torrents. I gladly pay for that.

That's clearly Jade.

Surprisingly accurate cosplay

That's definitely not the Lily Lou I'm thinking of.

I just finished moving all my media to x265 and saved 7TB in the process. Quality looks plenty good to me but I always start from a remux if I can. Totally Worth it for the extra space.

Dunno what it is, but none of your posts ever load for me.

Seriously I thought we were about to watch someone paralyze themselves

As someone who quit smoking, there's just something about the sight of a woman doing it that just does it for me. Thanks for sharing

Tachiyomi is a great android app for comics/manga. I've been using it for years.

First thing I do with any tiktok? Mute it. Tiktok is so much better without audio.

I do miss her posts. She is so freaking hot.

Very nice! Now that you have the space, you'll fill it faster than you might imagine lol. I just converted my old tower into an unRAID server a few months ago. i7-8700 with a gtx1080 and 16gb of RAM. Great learning experience. I just added in a 20TB drive for parity, freeing up my old parity drive. I'm now up to 60TB total space with 32TB used.

If you got an Android device, I use NZB360, in conjunction with radar and sonar. I can monitor and search remotely on my server using that. Then sends it to Plex.

Not at all! I wouldn't mind a little more.
