A couple of your links are broken.

This page links here: http://www.dbzer0.com/about/personal/reading/

Did you put in a relative link instead of an absolute link perhaps?

Yea, we got some growing pains. I hope Lemmy.ml has prepared for Monday. If the tinyest percentage of Reddit comes along (and I’ve been mentions of Lemmy in many subreddits) then this place will experience a deluge.

Judging by the IP address, lemmy.ml seems to be located in France. That’s not fantastic for take-down notices, as far as I’m aware.

I’m in Serbia, land of the free, home of the torrents. I don’t know if there are VPS providers here, but if so, it’s a good country for hosting anything but government criticism (not that you’d need to criticize Vućić the benevolent, long may he reign).

I’ve just pulled up Shingeki no Kyojin. Works fine.

I’m using version 4.4-1 on Arch Linux.

I’ve used ani-cli…though for some months. I guess I don’t watch that much.

Why so many apps just for watching anime?

This whole thing is madness. Courses shouldn’t have hidden costs.

Wanting privacy’s understandable, but I don’t get why people have to add ‘drug addicts’.

People smoking a heroine spliff aren’t gonna do drugs at your house.

If you’re on Linux, here’s my notflix script to torrent and watch instantly.

Just do:

./notflix.sh solaricks

Wait 2 minutes, and it’ll play.

Time to root and flash, though I really wish that was an easier process. It’s a different process and set of downloads for each phone.

I tend to search for strings, like ‘CC-BY-SA’, because you’ll get things like Deviant Art images which are CC, even if the site isn’t.

Nice blog post, and always nice to see RSS feeds.

I’ve never had practical trouble downloading scripts and identifying the creators, because I use package managers. I think the best general solution for normal end-users getting packages they can trust is always a well-audited package manager.

And of course, the GPG key solution seems to work well enough for coders.

I can’t imagine a general solution to Github workflows. I use Gitlab’s CI for LaTeX documents, but terraform code would obviously be better for other projects. I sounds like disparate solutions is a good idea.

I’m not sure MS will have much luck using EEE on GPL projects.

When .doc format was extended, they then ‘extended’ it with proprietary features, then extinguished competition by locking them out of those additional features.

You can download all Github projects, and wikis, because they’re all based on Git, and the only ‘extensions’ particular to Github are CLI specs, and issues, which can also be ported easily.

I’d find this a niussance. I use automatic git merges and pushes through ssh keys.

Perhaps the article is trying to talk about removing ‘password-only’ authentication, but what it says is that it requires ‘one or more forms of two-factor authentication’, which suggests a second or third form of authentication, so ssh-keys-only seems like it’s out.

THX 1138 is finally here!

I’d really like to continue seeding while I watch my downloaded video;

That’s better… but a week seems more sustainable.

I suppose the best result would be to cut if anything has more than 20 seeders, keep for a week if it has 5, and seed forever while is has 1 or 2. I’m mostly worried about torrent health on the old book collections I occasionally download.

I made another which accepts btfs for distros which don’t have peerflix in the package manager.

And another to search for torrents to download (but not immediately play).

(requires transmission-cli and you’ll need to change the directory in the last line to somewhere transmission can write)

I’m remaking the script right now with btfs as an option for those who don’t have peerflix in their distro’s package manager.

Adding an option to leave something seeding would be good too, for some default time, like ‘7 days’, or perhaps a time proportional to the filesize, so you could add a series and leave it for a month.

I guess you could use transmission-remote, but it won’t auto-play like btfs does. Any ideas for both auto-playing and long-term seeding?
