Why almost every tracker have malware ads?
  • They don't. Only shitty trackers. Every tracker I use has zero ads. A thing called private trackers exist. Every good torrent site has zero ads.

    If you can't get in a private tracker and don't want ads, usenet is better than public trackers anyways.

    Private trackers >/= usenet > public trackers

    The Problem with Linus Tech Tips: Accuracy, Ethics, & Responsibility
  • I agree that MKBHD is also not technically inclined nor seems to be very interested in it.

    He’s more interested in the cinematography aspect of YouTube.

    Personally I’ve only ever used a couple of his videos as a “first look” at something where I just wanted to see a first glance.

    But one example where MKBHD and Linus’ incompetence was shown together was MKBHDs video with Linus showing up, where they built a 140tb Unraid server.

    Personally I wouldn’t opt for unraid over just using actual Linux or proxmox, etc. but that’s besides the point.

    They used one parity drive for 14 hard drives, then referred to everything as being “backed up”

    RAID IS NOT A BACKUP!

    Linus, who uses Unraid for his own channel should know this! Any competent tech person, running their own server with data they can’t afford to lose, should know that. Full Stop.

    Which it should be no surprise LTT had several occasions of losing data with no backups.

    The Problem with Linus Tech Tips: Accuracy, Ethics, & Responsibility
  • Ok fair. But I think he repeatedly shows himself to be incompetent and his response to being called out strikes me as very narcissistic.

    Those two things together = wack

  • Yeah the r7 xl is crazy, and pretty pricey.

    A little overkill for my needs at this point in time as well. R5 is midtower and I didn’t feel like going full tower.

  • Just added 5x18TB Seagate Ironwolf NAS (CMR) drives to my build.

    it's a retired desktop/gaming pc

    • Ryzen 5600x
    • Radeon 580 gpu
    • 3x4tb zfs raidz1 array
    • 5x18tb zfs raidz1 array
    • 48gb RAM (to be upgraded)
    • Plex, jellyfin (and jellyvue) both behind a reverse proxy, other non related services like vaultwarden etc
    • Sonarr/radarr/lidarr/jackett via docker using private trackers, running mostly linuxserver.io docker images
    • Proxmox

    Edit: along with the 5 new drives, switched to a fractal R5 case to accommodate the amount of hard drives

    Squabbles, another recent reddit alternative, seems to be taking the doomed "free speech" path
  • Indigenous peoples have acknowledged a “third gender” aka non binary for centuries - way before colonization.

    How can you say self identifying in regards to sex/gender is a recent ideology when it’s been part of human history for centuries?

    Sounds like bland, generic, thoughtless conservative nonsense to eliminate other perspectives (especially when you discount them as new despite existing for centuries)

  • I’m sure it’s a planned feature but it’s just something I noticed that would be an improvement

    Thanks for the awesome app!
