A closet with a toilet that doubles as the kitchen sink would be $3k in NYC.

Your bloodline is weak.

If you have your session set to be a static IP, then it will stop the torrent. If you’re using a VPN, you tell MAM that, so the IP connected to that session would be able to update.

Yes, to both Android and iOS. It uses HTTPS instead of SSH, since most phones don’t support that without additional software.

I personally use the Obsidian Git plugin and sync it to a self-hosted Gitea server. You could also use GitHub or something similar, if you don’t mind them.

No, after you register, your IP mostly doesn’t matter, with the exception that whatever IP you’re using to download the torrent, needs to be the one that downloads the torrent file. Obviously, there is a way to configure a separate session that’s allowed to download, for the people who use seed boxes.

I use a VPN with them, and have no problem. You have to tell them you use a VPN, so that they know you’re not registering for multiple accounts. But if them knowing you IP during the interview is a problem for you, there’s always public trackers. The experience isn’t as good, but that’s why they’re public.

Yeah, that won’t work. You can customize a little on how Servarr apps store media, but the biggest rule is that the paths for movies must always be consistent. Get your name format set up in Media Management, then be sure to put a checkmark on the Rename Movies box before you import. Doing that will let you make sure Radarr renames everything to be more legible to you.

I recommend setting up Radar using the TRaSH guides. https://trash-guides.info/

Or do most people not put movies in actuall collection folders such as movies/Star Wars/Star Wars Episode One file

No, I don’t think most people do that. I would wager that most people don’t even have multiple root folders. I do, but that’s only because I sort things into anime and non-anime, because I use different profiles with different custom formats to fetch each type of media.

The usual way to store media in Sonarr/Radarr is: /root folder/movie name/movie file. You can get more complicated than that, but why would you? There’s not really any practical benefit to it, unless you’re navigating the folders by hand when you want to play something, and have a lot of media. For example, Radarr doesn’t care if you have 100 movies in individual folders in the root. It’s not a human, so it has no problem telling you which movies you are missing from each series on the Collections tab, and can fetch the remaining movies automatically.

The other person answered your question, but let me add that it is single-handedly the best place on the net to get ebooks and audiobooks. And that’s coming from somebody that prefers Usenet over torrents for virtually everything.

I’ve never run across a book I haven’t been able to find and have downloaded within minutes.

It’s possible you might have missed a step then, if you’re getting a lot of Russian releases. TRaSH scores bad dual audio very low, so you shouldn’t be getting things that default to Russian if you’re looking for English, because it should simply refuse to download them if set up correctly.

If you’re using the Servarr apps to fetch media, then you need to set up Sonarr/Radarr using the TRaSH guides to make sure they don’t fetch media in other languages.

Don’t bother with removing stuff. Just set your default audio and subtitle track in whatever you’re using to play or stream the media, and you won’t have to worry about selecting the proper one each time.

As for Bazarr, there’s several reasons it might not be fetching the right subtitles, so definitely look into fixing that. Often it’s a problem with paths being wrong. It might give you a clue by looking at the status page.

And be sure you’re setting up all your Servarr apps using the TRaSH guides. It’ll take you an hour or so to do, but you only need to do it once, and it’ll drastically improve the quality of releases you grab.

Yeah, because Google hosts most of their services on Linux. Doesn’t mean I’m signing up for Gmail anytime soon.

Be a real shame if everyone just downloaded all their books from a friendly mouse-themed private tracker.

So that Russia can make them scour the Archive to remove anything considered inappropriate by the kind of folks over at lemmy.ml?

Obsidian and VLC.

To be fair, you can just refuse to take part in that. They’ll keep asking, every now and then, and you can keep saying no.

I’ve never had an issue with finding movies or shows on Usenet, to the point that I’ve stopped looking elsewhere for them to save time when running a search. It’s likely just you have a shitty provider.

No shit. I don’t understand why people ever thought they were a good option in the first place.
