Sharpiemarker, w Good sources for obscure educational videos?

Honestly, I’d check at your local library. A lot of them have inter-library loans, so they can search a network of libraries for the specific title you’re looking for.

in addition to ILL, they may also have a digitization setup for converting your VHS to digital.

Sharpiemarker,

Great suggestion!

CTdummy, w Having a hard time settling on a VPN

I’ll see if I bookmarked it but there was a site with a bunch of VPNs listed with their privacy/functionality compared. Using it as a reference I ended up on Mullvad VPN. Super simple set up for the basic stuff with some more functionality under the hood if you need. iOS and windows app for quick set up too. My experience with them has been only positive so far.

theangriestbird, (edited )

Idk if this was the article you were thinking of, but I used this article from torrentfreak and also settled on Mullvad. I’ve been subscribed for years, they’re great and pretty cheap.

Edit: I reread your post and realized that you’re looking for a VPN with port forwarding. Frankly, I trust Mullvad enough at this point that if they removed port forwarding as a feature, then I assume that feature is probably just a bad idea for VPNs in general.

I need a VPN with port forwarding because I want to host game servers behind a CG/NAT. So there's at least one reason why they should still be featured.

DogMuffins,

I think hosting something and wanting inbound traffic through a VPN is a pretty unusual use case.

DonnieDarkmode, w 5th Edition D&D books?

This is from the community on Reddit. You should be able to grab the torrent file for whichever 5e book you want from there. I would also recommend 5e . tools like the other commenters, even as just a separate reference; as a DM I’ve found it way easier to pull things up quickly, even if I legally own the book that has whatever spell/mob I’m looking for haha.

It just doesn’t host the same amount of content that it used to and redirects to a different, similar site, these days.

Maybe I’m just not in the cool kids club anymore and don’t know how to get into the archives.

gonzoknowsdotcom1,

Zlibrary hosts all its data but they run a tor instance as well as ipfs which is distributed hosting

It’s still around, just redirects US IP addresses. I never bothered with an account though, I just browse their collections and download elsewhere.

One of my greatest Internet accomplishments was randomly typing “aaaaarg” into a search engine one day and having that come up. It was pretty good.

NormalC, w Anti-Piracy Lessons Enter the School Curriculum: Are You a Thief?

“In the real world, we learn to control desire, postpone needs, and resist temptation. This lesson also applies to the digital world. Stealing is wrong and punishable,” it adds.

Yeah these chumps are total tools that’ll just boost piracy even more. How do you fail this hard at talking to kids? If you tell a teen to “postpone needs,” you don’t deserve to be around teens.

@an0nym0us@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

I have every single mainstream animated project that has been made for the last 60 years. I like to think that if I were ever in a Blast-From-The-Past type of situation, I’d be able to watch fresh content for the entire 20 years.

Rai,

MS has a huge collection of banned cartoons and it’s glorious.

ipkpjersi,

Make sure you have that stuff backed up, that’s valuable lol

ancoraunamoka,

NO

theskyisfalling, w Looking for resources to rebuild my music collection

Another recommendation for soulseek here.

I also rip a lot of stuff from Spotify using soggfy, I’ll make long playlists and just leave it running over night ripping everything. It requires a bit of sorting out afterwards into respective folders for artist / album etc but that is a price I’m happy to pay for the saved money of not having to buy all the releases.

Anything I can’t find on either of those but still really want I will usually buy on bandcamp.

pascal, w With PLEX blocking Hetzner Hosting, I'm thinking of Moving to Jellyfin, but I have some questions.

Why would Plex block a specific hosting provider!?

Schmeckinger,

Large amount of people selling access to pirated stuff on hetzner servers using plex.

pascal,

Well, fuck.

I guess “that’s why we can’t have nice things” apply here.

skullgiver,
@skullgiver@popplesburger.hilciferous.nl avatar

Too many pirates concentrate on one single hosting provider.

Plex has to keep up pretenses that it doesn’t want their customers to exclusively be pirates. Only legal CD/DVD/BR rips allowed! If it doesn’t, it’ll get sued to hell and back, and the Plex owners may go to jail for selling piracy as a service.

Kitikuru, w With PLEX blocking Hetzner Hosting, I'm thinking of Moving to Jellyfin, but I have some questions.

I’m curious on how you have your setup and which tier you have? I currently have a basic tier virtual server with them for a few microservices

Vaggumon, (edited )
@Vaggumon@lemm.ee avatar

I have 2 servers through Hetzner, both I got from the auction side of the site.

My lower end server is what I use to run my seed box and up till now PLEX. I use the Higher end server to run some work projects and for experimenting with.

$75 US Per Month:

  • CPU - Intel Core i9-9900
  • RAM - 128 GB
  • Drives - 2x 10TB (RAID 1) + 1x 512 GB NVME SSD
  • Running Ubuntu as the OS.

$145 US Per Month:

  • CPU - AMD Ryzen 9 5950X
  • RAM128 GBDrives
  • Drives - 2x 4TB SSD (RAID 1) + 1x 480 GB NVME SSD
  • Usually runs some flavor of Linux.
Kitikuru,

Thanks! I just found out about the auction option through this post. I’m curious, given the price per month, wouldn’t it be better to self host with similar hardware? Higher upfront cost but lower over time I’d think?

Just curious because I’m thinking about switching up my setup, self hosting Plex currently but lack the bandwidth that I’d likely get if I moved to a hetzner server.

Vaggumon,
@Vaggumon@lemm.ee avatar

Oh yeah, would be lower cost over time for sure. For me though, internet is kind of crap in my area and the work server gets a ton of access from coworkers. And my sister in another state watches movies and tv shows on my Plex. Both these server get over 1.2 gbps up and down. There is also no cost if I have a hardware failure. There are pros and cons for sure, like I’ve been wanting to do some stuff that could really benefit from a GPU but not really an option with the auction stuff.

Kitikuru,

Awesome. Yeah that would be one of my concerns for what I have now. My internet service is some pretty terrible residential internet so my upload speeds are absolute garbage here but I have some good hardware for Plex/jellyfin.

How’s transcoding on the hetzner server? Any issues there at all? In any case thanks for all the info!

Vaggumon,
@Vaggumon@lemm.ee avatar

99% of stuff worked fine, but when I had issues it was a random error about server being under powered which wasn’t true at all lol. Someone on a forum suggested using the official windows app from the store and once I moved to that for client side access, never got the error again.

Keep in mind though, if you plan to do Plex from Hetzner, after Oct 2nd it won’t work anymore. But others here have suggested JellyFin instead. I’ll be testing that out this weekend, and if all is good moving over from Plex all together.

Kitikuru,

Yeah I’ve been wanting to make the full jump to jellyfin anyway. The only thing holding me back really was some extra services I was using that were Plex only. Posterr for example, but jellyfin is on the roadmap and I can just roll my own version until then. The mobile clients have at least gotten pretty good as well for JF.

Vaggumon,
@Vaggumon@lemm.ee avatar

Well, good luck, and I hope if you try it out, Hetzner works out for you as well as it has for me.

Kitikuru,

Thanks! And again thank you for all the answers and advice!

PolarisFx, (edited ) w Ripping Audible Audiobooks
@PolarisFx@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

I checked out OpenAudible posted in this topic and it seems interesting, and might be a better choice. But if you’re looking to rip your audible files yourself you’ll want inAudible: github.com/rmcrackan/inAudible

There are other options around, but none of them are as free or as good as inAudible, IMO.

Fermiverse,

Ripping myself is what I did with Libation as suggested here. You log into your audible account when starting the software for the first time, your libary is shown and you can start to download.

When adjusting the auto tagging then audiibookshelf automatically sorts the stuff in the correct way with series etc.

Perfect combination and totally free.
