  • I looked into Starlink years ago when I was RVing. It came out to over $600 up front in equipment costs, THEN $240 a month or w/e. And it's not like Elon wasn't a piece of shit back then, either. $50 a month for T-Mobile "5G at home" with no upfront or hidden costs did the trick nicely and bridged the gap until I found a place with cheap fiber. Now I have 2.5Gbps up and down and it's still less than half the price of Starlink before this price hike.

  • I caught my middle schooler googling her math homework problems. I can hardly blame her, I just completed a work training on Measles the same way. I told her I understand the urge, but you have to put in the work in order to earn taking the easy way out because otherwise you won't know when the machines are lying to you. So anyway yeah we're fucked.

  • Setting up a pi-hole is as easy as some kind of baked desert. Flash your OS to the SD card, boot, install. Follow the prompts and you'll be golden. The hardest part, depending on your router, may potentially be giving it a static IP and setting it as your DNS server, but those steps are also usually pretty easy.

  • That's not true, I caught one the other day who promised to grant me wishes if I let it go. He wasn't lying but the wishes eventually led to my downfall so now I have a hard time trusting anyone even partially aquatic.

  • Ah, no I appreciate the back and forth. I was looking into Overseerr once upon a time, but my Plex server is running in a Windows VM and I didn't want to mess with Windows Docker. A python script and a few HTML files seemed much easier at the time and got the desired result. I am eventually planning to migrate the server to Linux, but haven't had the time and energy and would have to literally schedule the downtime with my family. It still doesn't look like Overseerr integrates with Soularr or Readarr but I've made a note to play around a bit with it in the future.

  • Not really? To the ADHD mind trying to keep the one piece of media you're looking for at the top of your mind while you load an app full of suggestions for other shows and movies is a nightmare, and it's not any more convenient because you're still going to end up searching for the media you want. The only added convenience is when you're not looking for anything in particular and just want to see what's out there and there's a million better ways to do that. Factor in having to instruct everyone to download the app and create an account rather than just go to a URL you can access from any device anywhere and put in your show/movie/song and in a few minutes you have it. Overseerr doesn't monitor my services either, or whatever else I want to do. It's MUCH easier to maintain and more convenient for everyone. And does Overseerr even interact with Soularr or readarr? The functionality of my webapp scales exponentially, I'm not tied to what the developers of Overseerr deem functional.
