I’m stupider. I pay for a bunch of streaming shows, have a large Plex library, and will still often watch Pluto with commercials.
Usually halfway through I’ll realize I’m being stupid and finish the show on Plex so I don’t waste time on commercials.
I say this to my spouse all the time, it’s on our Plex? Why are you watching it with commercials?
Why are you watching it with commercials?
Apparently because they’re stupider 🤷
Edit: what’s with the downvotes? It was a lighthearted reference to their own assessment, not mine 😄
Well it wasn’t my assessment.
I bet they’ll be willing to share custody of it if you ask nicely, though 😉

I setup jellyfin with private tracker finally last week. We haven’t used any streaming service in years, so I was shocked to find out we would have needed 3 different services for 2 movies and one series we wanted to watch.
its been fun. ive been sailing the seas for… shit… since inception. remember Myth!? watching all these providers come and go is almost entertaining.
the only real affect ive ever felt was once streaming became a thing, that content became higher quality and hits the water far faster than it used to. so, thanks for that!
Chuck it into Sonarr and let TRaSH-guides deal with whatever source is the best.
Amen, Lucifer.
Ive been an avowed pirate since i learned how to because i was so mad at Microsoft for selling windows ME. that OS was so bad it drove me to a life of crime lol.
But i still do it the old way, with torrents or streams. Have you kept with the times? Do you use plex or jellyfin or one of the other systems i see the fancy plates use?
ive been running storage devices (nas) since the late 90s… for media server its been MythTV… then later SageTV (google murdered) then XMBC and now its kodi+jellyfin.
initially it was a lot of ripping physical media… it was awesome when netflix came up with the 'we’ll send you 7 disks at a time (and then 5 and then 3), i was returning them within hours of receipt. nowadays i have a seedbox/central torrenting server so the kids can help.
i still have MP3s i downloaded on the OG napster.

Remember Kazaa? That’s where I learnt about different codec’s and the importance of virus checking files before running them, well until Kazaa++ came out and did it for you.
bearshare!
Well shit, you just unlocked a memory I haven’t touched in decades!.. Damn I miss the old p2p days, where you had to earn that mp3 of Destiny’s Child Bootylicious with a weird audio artifact mid way through!
But what if…I were to torrent my media instead of paying exorbitant amounts to multiple companies? Oh ho ho ho, delightfully devilish, Seymour!
are you ready kids? aye aye captain! i can’t hearrr you.
Oooooooooooh !

Is that the next Pokemon Gen? I can’t keep up with it these days.

I wouldn’t mind paying for streaming services IF and ONLY IF they had everything day one just like Spotify works with music. I fucking hate paying for Netflix just to realize I can’t watch something new as it’s Paramount+ exclusive, and P+ doesn’t even let me register in my country. Always sailing for anything video related.
Does anyone know how I can get on a private tracker site. I have a whole containerized home server setup but still stuck on TPB. I’m ready to serve. Would love an invite.
Just watch youtube poops
