AMD GPU support for transcoding is nice, but is anybody still using dedicated GPUs for transcoding? Intels iGPUs do the same job at a fraction of the cost.

Chicago style is with sauce on top, Detroit style is rectangle deep dish because they originally baked the pizza in oil pans. Or so the legend goes.

Hard agree with Usenet. If you're doing sonarr/radar stuff save yourself tons of stress and hook into usenet

Do you use a vpn with usenet? Is it even necessary as you aren’t hosting like with torrents?

I don't use a vpn because it would really slow down the speed and everything is downloading via https anyway so its encrypted. Your ISP will see you hitting usenet servers, but thats all. Milage may vary with how tolerate your ISP is towards this.

Have you found it easier to find less popular titles/things that there just doesn’t seem to be seeded torrents for?

Absolutely. The insane thing about usenet is retention. If it was uploaded 10 years ago to usenet, its still there. Available at max speed. No more dead torrents. I was in the same boat with users requesting stuff I couldn't find, with usenet its way way better.

They'll let old.reddit sit around for a little while longer because of the push back they got from API changes. But I suspect by this time next year it'll be gone too and we'll get another wave leaving reddit.

This comment is me, last year. Its really not that hard don't let it intimidate you! All you really need is 3 things:

  1. Download Client. Usenet has file size limits, so files are broken into zip archives. A download client such as SABnzbd will automatically unpack for you.
  2. Usenet provider. Such as Eweka (Based in Europe) or Newshosting. This will cost about 5-10 bucks a month.
  3. Usenet indexer. Indexer is used for searching usenet. Think pirate bay. I personally use https://nzbgeek.info. NZB geek costs 1 dollar a month or 80 for a lifetime membership.

Yeah usenet costs money, but god damn its such a premium experience. Every single download is going to cap out your connection, never wait for seeds again.

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say Prigozhin is dead, everything coming out of Russia right now is fake news propaganda. They said he met with Putin? Prigozhin and co shot down Russian helicopters and killed Russian pilots. There is no fucking way this guy was then allowed to meet with Putin days later. Russian intelligence scooped this guy up and he's dead 100%.

To add to this outstanding display of rationalism. The vaccines are waaay more effective at preventing COVID than masks will ever be. Dump the mask (if you are a healthy adult) and get boosted!
