I want to say Sonarr has a regex renaming feature, but I may just be making that up as I’m not looking at my instance right now. Doing whatever renaming based on a pattern would be preferable during the download phase in order to keep the metadata of each service clean.

Failing that, if you have a predictable list of release group strings you want removed from filenames, a one liner with sed or similar would take care of this. You’d then break the known locations of these files by any service tracking them of course, but they will eventually be reindexed.

Seems kind of pricey for that specific unit, but it should work well for just hosting simple services.

I concur…

It’s a dumbass AI-powered recommendation engine with an awful GUI. That’s about it.

As far as it being malicious, that’s really up to you.

He will sue and win. There was no misconduct. This will also be reinstated with backpay when these clowns are gone anyway.

So fucking stupid, and a waste of OUR tax dollars.

Still illegal.

It starts with the hardware first. You started well with tuning your CPU/MEM frequency settings, but that matters less if you’re running giant PSUs (or redundant), more drives than you need, and a huge number of peripherals.

Get a cheap outlet monitor to see what your power draw is and track it at the wall. I just got these cheap Emporia ones. I’m sure there’s more reputable ones out there.

Don’t go crazy with your networking solution if you don’t need them. PoE switches draw tons of power even when idle, and a 24-port switch is a huge draw if you’re only using 3 of them.

Consider getting a power efficient NAS box for backend storage, and low power Minipc for frontend serving instead of using a power hungry machine for all your network apps.

You can dive deeper into any angle thing, but these are the basics.

Well there is Appinage or Flatpak. Either one of those.

All Musk money, I’m willing to wager.

Depends. What does race have to do with it in your mind?

Generally a “seething hatred” towards anything or anyone as a large group is probably a signifier of mental health problems.

🤦

There’s only so much reliability you can build into a simple home setup without it being a major loss on investment. In a datacenter situation, you’d have fault tolerance on all the network ingress: load balancers, bonded interfaces, SDWAN configurations…etc.

Unless you want 3 of everything you own, just do the basics, OR I guess consider hosting it elsewhere 🤣

Focus more on why the service is going down, and solve for that. Make it reliable by restarting automatically in the face of failures. A Reverse Proxy should be dead simple, and not change states between restarts, so it shouldn’t be dying in the first place. Having it restart on failures should be simple and reliable.

Hmmm, it does seem they’ve finally raised prices. Well that’s a huge bummer.

I can’t say the 3 options you posted are really good deals, but maybe that’s just the market in Australia. I’d check to see what the max RAM in those are and upgrade to at least 16GB though. It should still be cheap for non DDR5.

Anything can be a “server” in your use-case. Something low power at idle will not cost an arm and a leg to run, and you can always upgrade later if you need more.

Check the Minisforum refurb store and see what you can get for under $150.

That’s who she went to work for, but we all know he is impotent. Probably his bodyguard or accountant 😂

Whenever she left DC to go work on the West Coast. I’m sure she meant it sarcastically, but seriously…it’s more realistic than not.

As long as they are still firm and not mushy, it’s fine.

Katie has a Bull? Emma Viglund called it 😂
