it is amazing to me that you pretty much hit download and have poo poo appear on your server and people are like "WHOAH thats way too much work", motherfucker 30 years ago people were running janky rear end VCR set ups, trying to program it and praying like hell that poo poo worked to tape the baseball game and it wasn't rain delayed or something. this is loving EZ in comparison.

even without a raid setup or whatever, it can be as easy as "download plex server on a windows machine you already have, tell it the folder where you keep your movies, log into plex client on whatever device, you're done"

i don't do the thing some people do where they just download everything automatically, that seems silly to me

Is Hulu/Disney/Netflix/F1TV not enough for you people?!

I am not married nor have kids, but I am also paid to be a computer janitor not an organ janitor

Also gently caress disney and netflix. Not giving them money. F1TV is obviously a MUCH more ethical service and company

The only problem with Plex is how much you have to tell other people about it. Eats up hours a week, if every single person I’ve ever know with a Plex setup is to be believed.

My wife is incredibly tech illiterate and uses Plex. The fact that it "looks" like a streaming app is extremely appealing.

“F1 has changed over the past five years and it’s all going in one direction with this budget cap. People ask ‘Are you at the budget cap?’ but that doesn’t mean anything anymore. You need to be at the budget cap in CapEx (capital expenditure) and OpEx (operating expense) now, because you need to make CapEx investments to bring your OpEx down so you are efficient. That’s the only way to do it.


quote:

“I think what Haas achieved last year, obviously finishing 10th is no good, but it was actually an achievement going through to Q3 more than a few times,” he said. “Now, knowing how much of a disparity there is within the infrastructure, it is quite an achievement by the team. And that’s not down to me, that’s down to the team – it shows how good they are.”

I’m married with kids and probably the biggest nerd in this thread outside of khablam.

I had Jellyfin with IPTV and auto download from Usenet or torrent setup in about a day.

I kept F1TV so I don’t have to listen to the insane ramblings of Martin Brundle’s shambling corpse, and Crofty’s shrieking during the race.

Most people don't factor this time cost in, but it's an extremely valid point.

Are things pretty much the same as they were oh...10-15 years ago or so? ie Usenet, NZBs, etc?

How much loving money a month are you blowing on subscriptions lol.

The fact that I'm doing it should speak volumes about how easy it is to set up a plex server on a nas.

Thank you for remind me: I think my wife and I both have separate HBO subscriptions. I need to check on that tomorrow.

Sure is. Trashguides will have you set up pretty quickly and with minimal computer touching and the Usenet thread here is very much alive and kicking.

The top part of the track needs to be one big straight so there is at least another spot for passing, wont happen for very obvious reasons though
