Correct me if im wrong, but if you play a 1080p video on a 4k screen, that would be upscaled. If you put a 1080p video in a 4K stream, then play that 4k stream on the 4k screen, no post-processing would be applied to the video on the screen. All the upscaling happens during encoding, where you have far more control over the upscaler quality.

Mp4 is a video container. Do you mean mp3?

Just use yt-dlp instead of relying on websites that shove ads in your face and may do what ever they want to the files you’re downloading?

The settlement addresses any and all people who were ever involved in any fashion with the production or distribution of yuzu. Quoting the Settlement:

against Defendant enjoining it and its members, agents, servants, employees, independent contractors, successors, assigns, and all those acting in privity or under its control

So yeah, the devs are all individually targeted, not just the LLC as its own entity. And if any of the devs is ever caught doing anything like this again, they’re gonna face charges much more serious than this i fear.

its on none of the large trackers

if predb.net is anything to go by, there has not yet been any scene release for that series: https://predb.net/search/rey mysterio?page=1. Either it’s too new, interest is too low, or a mix of both. Or something else entirely, who’s to say.

I sure hope they commit the work back into the main repo…

On windows, the only features locked behind the paywall are required by professionals in film. This includes, but isn’t limited to, larger than 4K timelines, 10 bit footage, advanced fusion filters and effects, niche export quality settings. As long as you’re not working in the media industry, you won’t need these.

Try the free version first, before jumping into a crack. See if you even like it.

Once malware is VM aware it can also get outside a VM. Furthermore, malware can be written to seat itself comfortably in your PC and lay low for hours, days, weeks before becoming active. Installing in a VM and waiting for shit to hit the fan is not always reliable.

This will work, but is not as nice as the official way to do it via a config file, as described by another comment here.

Many people do not want to seed downloaded content forever for storage reasons. In these cases, you would download the file with your download client and leave it in that download directory to allow seeding. It’ll be hardlinked to the Radarr/Sonarr folder for indexing, which does not use up extra storage space. Once a certain seeding/time goal is reached on the torrent, the torrent file will be deleted to make room for new torrents. This does (to my knowledge) not delete the file from the disk, meaning it is still accessible for your media center.

Especially for people who run their software on hosted solutions with limited storage space, this is important to do. If you have all your software running on a local server with (virtually) infinite storage, this is not as much of a worry to you. It is probably still in your best interest to use hardlinks instead of copies, to save on storage space.

central europe here, landline internet is truly unlimited here. my router reports around 6.5TB of total traffic (up+down) in my home network over the last month. we still have cellular data with soft caps (EDGE type speed after your 30 Gig or whatever are used up) but cable internet is limitless.

At that point I’d rather pirate the game and donate to mod developers who are putting endless hours of unpaid time into free mods.

I know, people like to call them noisy. I’m sure they are, but I have no point of reference. I’ve never interacted with 18TB drives before. And as I’ve written in the comment, with the Define 7 I’m having absolutely zero noise issues. The maximum noise I am able to get out of the drives is when writing during parity calculations, and this scenario now causes near zero audible noise. I am wonderfully happy with what I have.

Since you’re going to go with 4TB drives, they may already make less noise just based on that. At these lower capacities (would have been an insane thing to call 4TB drives a couple years ago lol) they’re built differently.

If you’re not gonna use a “proper sound isolated case”, let me share these two ressources for custom sound dampening cases: https://silentpcreview.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=70364

Both taught me a handful of things about what I can do beyond buying an isolated case to reduce noise output. Maybe they will be of help to you too. Best of luck!

I have very recently acquired 4x18TB Seagate Exos drives for a fresh server. I parked them in an old case I had lying around where i was barely able to secure them all with screws, and cooling was especially problematic. Noise was horrible. standby noise was already audbile in the entire room. and when writing data while parity calculations were running, you could hear it in the entire apartment. The noise travelled through the wooden floor into every other room.

I have now moved the server and the drives into the fractal define 7 case. the drives rest on specially made rubber bearings that came with the case. the sides are noise isolated. the system is running with 6 fans total, 3 of which are 120mm corsair fans repurposed, and 3 are 140mm from the define 7. the server is now close to noiseless. vibrations do not rattle the case as with the old one. the rubber bearings isolate most of the vibration anyways. all that is left is a bit of head clacking, which gets isolated away from the case sides.

long story short: the drives are only half the story. you need a proper enclosure that is noise isolated. the define 7 is comparatively huge, but it gives you immense room to grow and was truly a godsent regarding noise.

Just another day on which I as a European am absolutely shocked how shit the quality of life in the US is.

For logging keys, usually

this is the only valid response to the question that was asked. save yourself the time of trying to get the license out of your existing system. you’re literally on the piracy community. just generate a new license, you’ll be done in maybe 30 seconds, if even that long.

Regarding Dropbox: Where are you seeing 9 TB for 20 $? I’m in the EU so my pricing may vary, but all I can see is the Business plan for 16 € per month per user, with a minimum of 3 users in the plan, making it cost 48 € instead. Do you have access to something else?

Regarding Backblaze: Agreed that 50$ a month is a rough bill to pay, that sums up very fast if youre counting across the years. But their storage is also a lot more reliable than one single hard drive stored in a bank locker, with them always checking their arrays and replacing aged drives.

Regarding Scaleway: If im reading their pricing chart right, it would cost roughly 2 € / month / TB for glacier storage, and 9 € / TB when restoring from glacier to standard storage? A big questionmark for me is how ingress works. If I’m using this for backups in case of total system failure, i’ll want to upload differential backups (borg/duplicati) every couple days. How is that going to work with pricing, is that all running through standard storage driving up monthly cost, do I have to manually manage file history and deletion of older stuff or does my backup software handle that? Plus, you loose out on the instant file access that you get with Backblaze, or with something hacky like Dropbox / Onedrive. I’m still undecided which I value more, money or fast access.
