I really need to start downloading manga as well. I find it to be the most ephemeral type of content with all the takedowns, groups stopping scanlations or frequent site issues
What's the proportions of Swedish, Finnish, Norwegian and Danish content on there? I've been trying to get into some more private trackers apart from MAM and TL
This is very technical but if your ISP has unmetered Netflix or Spotify you could have a VPN on a server that spoofs the hostname (easier) or IP (harder) which only works for downloading and i imagine using >50GB of data to Spotify might make the ISP ask some questions. Netflix would be easier since 4k movies are a thing
Wayland does not work properly on Nvidia Hardware: It keeps on getting closer but is not there yet, or so I've heard. Apparently, the issue is with the proprietary drivers, as noveau works well. But I use AMD, so I'm only working off rumours and opinions here.
Posting this from Hyprland on NVIDIA, arch (btw) and the nvidia-open-dkms driver, but yes, NVIDIA isn't fully there yet.
The simpler method has some drawbacks, not all TV's support all codecs and formats, you have to move the external drive from your computer to your TV for example. Getting Jellyfin setup will give you a more streaming service type of experience and if someone else than you might want to watch something, start with Jellyfin.
If the Jellyfin experience is horrible and you just really wanna watch a movie to relax on a saturday, maybe take a look at Plex.
If you already have the MiniPC just lying around then great, just use that! If you don't have it, you can also host Jellyfin + the *arr suite on your PC (unsure about Windows compatibility) and start them when needed or have them run in the background when your computer starts.
The title seemed quite negative but the article is quite good.
I hope that POSSE is the future but the layperson will not host their own site that serves as their "identity" which makes me feel that at some point we will have "identity management" services which will again centralize part of the web (in a less worse way)
Only NVIDIA 3000-series cards and up support hardware AV1 decoding and only 4000-series cards support both hardware AV1 encoding and decoding, so only just about 3 year old cards! source
All Intel ARC cards support both decode and encode, (released October 2022) source
AMD 6000-series cards (November 2020) support AV1 hardware decoding and only 7000-series cards (December 2022) support both hardware AV1 encoding and decoding. source
Seems like CZ is open as well, ANT and PHD arent
