Graysites genuinely have better ui than streaming services, plus they have better content availability than all streaming combined

[–] AFallingAnvil@lemmy.ca 15 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Self-hosted Jellyfin has the benefit of never being taken down unexpectedly and good/customizable UI

[–] naught101@lemmy.world 26 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Yeah, but the administrator is a bit of a dick

[–] BladeFederation@piefed.social 11 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Nah he's fine, he just has no idea what he's doing

[–] rockSlayer@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I have a jellyfin server spec'd but the RAM and HDD prices are too painful to swallow for me atm

[–] zarathustrad@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Hit some garage/estate sales.

I built Frankenstein's NAS out of parts from 4 old DDR3 gaming PCs and a pile of drives from old workstations. Just need a good case with tons of bays/fans.

Sure, it not power efficient, and some of those drives will die over the next few years, but it will get better (cope).

(Just add larger HDD in pairs as referbs go on flash sales, for only 2x more than they were last year... And pray for the hardware crash or more cash)

[–] thermal_shock@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Same lol. Started with an old Franky desktop and 2x500gb drives, continuously upgraded over the last decade with used parts.

summer 2024 I upgraded to 4x20TB drives, new fractal cube case with 8 3.5" drive bays, new CPU, etc. same profile from a decade ago. Runs great, it's a fun project that keeps me from subscriptions aside from VPN, which I use for other stuff, and NZB subscriptions, a few bucks a month.

Plus I can get movies literally within hours of a digital release, sometimes sooner. It's a little work, but I love it.

I have a server running with a Raspberry pi and some old hard drives, the performance is limited, but it works

[–] rockSlayer@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

I have a huge digital archive that I need to make, not to mention the stuff I'd be adding through the 7 seas. Right now with the amount of RAM and storage I need, it's nearly $3k. In normal times it would still be expensive, but it would be manageable

[–] Foni@piefed.zip 2 points 1 week ago

I don't know the details of your needs, but perhaps giving up a part of your plan in order to implement the rest is something to consider, I mean, functioning half-heartedly in this case is better than not working at all.

[–] tanisnikana@lemmy.world 14 points 1 week ago (3 children)

Pirating from Amazon is actual, tangible product theft.

I mean, I still support it, it’s just more involved to do.

[–] tidderuuf@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago (1 children)

If an Amazon truck stops somewhere then that's a free lootbox. I don't see any warnings on it saying that it's Amazons property and last I checked those drivers and vehicles are not owned by Amazon.

[–] watson387@sopuli.xyz 5 points 1 week ago

Excellent. I love Borderlands as the new reality!

[–] Axolotl_cpp@feddit.it 5 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

Since they shared streaming services we are gonna assume they mean piracy of amazon prime film catalogue, e-books etc etc blink

[–] tanisnikana@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Then please ignore me walking off with this giant sack of purloined goods. You saw nothing.

[–] Axolotl_cpp@feddit.it 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)
[–] tanisnikana@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

They were indeed of the rich.

[–] Axolotl_cpp@feddit.it 6 points 1 week ago

I was temporarly blind and couldn't see anything sir

[–] Bishma@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Unless you're specifically talking about their digital movie, music, book, or game services.

[–] tanisnikana@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Oh yeah, those are easy to thieve from.

[–] cannedtuna@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago

Me on my way to pull over the Amazon driver and make off with the goods

[–] Bishma@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 1 week ago

Books are pretty straight forward. And based on what I see out on the high seas, video can't be that much harder.

[–] naught101@lemmy.world 10 points 1 week ago

Piracy+band camp in the first row (they still pay artists well)

[–] Bishma@discuss.tchncs.de 7 points 1 week ago

If that's amazon, what does "Piracy" from Spirit Halloween look like?

[–] auzy1@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

You can't increase pricing, maintain low quality, and sell ad tiers and sell expect people to keep paying.

Even worse, movies and shows often get removed.

[–] sundray@lemmus.org 1 points 1 week ago

Theoretically, if they can find one person willing to subscribe for a billion dollars a month, they'll keep on making money.

[–] DudeImMacGyver@kbin.earth 3 points 1 week ago

I still have a Pandora subscription.

[–] xSikes@feddit.online 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)
[–] naught101@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

Use qbittorent, and follow the instructions to add a bunch of search engines

[–] NoPanko@feddit.uk 1 points 1 week ago

Ah pandora, the service that introduce me to The Paper Chase all those years ago

[–] bibbasa@piefed.social 1 points 1 week ago

ye scurvy dog

[–] ColeSloth@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I love my pirated Pandora apk. Had it since like 2012.

[–] LodeMike@lemmy.today 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Does it still run or does the phone complain that an integer isn't high enough?

[–] ColeSloth@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 1 week ago

It still runs great, but I had to force the install using "Shizuku" and "install with options".

Only bad thing is there's no smart watch functionality

[–] beyoublahaj@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

We also love your pirated Pandora apk please share
