Gin? Genetics? Giant?

Do you pronounce Origin like Oregon?

I personally find arguing pronunciation as entirely pointless when there are many words in English that get pronounced different based on a multitude of factors.

People also like to argue it's an acronym, but do you pronounce NASA the same as you pronounce the first letter of each word of National Aeronautics and Space Administration?

Honestly? Just say it how it makes sense to you.

I have multiple one way syncs set up, I've never had any issues.

I think what Ubisoft and Microsoft don't get is that SOME users are okay with subscriptions, but that's a small bit compared to people who don't.

Just cater to the niche that do want it and quit thinking you can make the whole market a subscription service.

My argument against this is that at least I own a license to the game rather than just a subscription. Steam still has and updates games that were made unpurchasable a decade ago. Hell, people still play rocket league on steam.

This is a separate argument altogether. Theres "own physically" and theres "own a license" to. If you own it physically and your physical media corrupts (which happens often to digital discs) did you own it any more than if you had it on steam? It's also illegal to make a copy of a console disc, btw.

What the article is talking about is not even obtaining a license for at all and games just being attached to a subscription

Personally, I find it no different than how there are multiple websites and multiple forums on the internet. Reddit, stack exchange, other types of forums dedicated to specific topics, etc

You DONT need the "best" source of content, you don't need to be connected to everyone, you don't need to have access to all information all the time.

I think it's one of those things to purposely craft a point of engagement. Now you've made a comment about it

You can play it on your phone now days, with mods even

I've been seeing a lot of morrowind references recently

Ah, I missed this somehow when digging through the git page

Thank you

I've looked into Code Server, which is a github project I've found for self hosting VS Code, but it only works on Linux

Are you saying VS Code itself has a built in self hostable option?

 

My server is still windows based, which I know is a bit of a sin at this point, but just bear with me please

There seem to be a few options avaliable, but I can't figure out if they all both support windows and C#, and a lot of the information I'm finding is linux specific.

Why? Well, I like to make little roguelikes and card battlers on my phone in pure c# code, it's a fun way to pass the time that isn't doom scrolling. A lot of my free time at work is spent sitting on a boat just waiting with no access to my PC

I've been using a C# ide on my phone, but Android as become such a fucking nightmare, most stuff seems locked down for some reason, and I can't access the local files to sync with syncthing to move it my PC when I do want to work with my PC.

So I'd like to use a browser based solution that will just store everything locally on my server

 

It downloaded one episode of one show, so I know it's configured properly in that regard. It is connected to Ombi, qBittorrent, and Jellyfin.

Not sure why it's not fetching the rest of the media? Again, it got just a single episode of a single show and that's all it downloaded. I was hoping it would go after whole season downloads rather than individual episodes

Anyway to approach this issue?

 

I only download 1080p unless it's something like LOTR that I'll splurge on space for. A comedy doesn't need spectacular visual fidelity.

Just downloaded a 44gb file for a 1080p version of Forest Gump, and I'm just kinda not interested in filling my hard drives with excessive file sizes. Noticed that some other films are 20gb and 13gb, etc, still way too big for what they are.

Any way to maybe have radarr have a file size preference? Like, for 1080p I don't need it to be any bigger than 3gb, and most movies can be 1.5gb and be fine

Edit: I have to say, I asked a beginner/basic question and no one here has tried to belittle me, or come at me with hostility, I've only gotten helpful advice. Thank you all!

 

I work away from home for weeks at a time, and I hurriedly set up my server on my last day at home last month

I got a free PC, and a 10tb HDD. Lenovo uses a stupid special cable to run sata drives off the motherboard, I didn't know there were two sizes, bought the wrong size and said fuck it so I installed windows on the same drive and same partition I now have 4 tb worth of media

Now I want to move to Linux as my server OS, I got another PC that actually has the ability to run multiple HDDs

Can I access the files on this drive from another OS? Is there a way to keep these files without transferring it all to another HDD?
