  • @[email protected] Posting here in case you still need someone to :)

  • I just checked the Reddit thread and the OP took it down in protest of Reddit's API changes.

  • That's a nice find, thank you :)

  • Are the tracks incorrect as in the first track should be English but is the French track, or track one is labelled as English but is actually French?

    If they're labelled correctly, your media player should be able to select your chosen language from the options, whichever order they're in. I think Plex does it.

    If they're incorrectly labelled, there are tools that can fix them, but it's been years since I last used one. I think MakeMKV did it, but it was gui from what I remember.

  • If you create a Java server, there are mods that let Bedrock players join. One is called Geyser, and I think the other is called Floodgate, but I'd need to double check.

    You can set up a free server online through Oracle too, and using the whitelist, you can make it private too. The article I used is here if you want to have a look

  • ReVyndros too (formerly Vyndros)

  • I accidentally dropped the red pill. And took 17 blue pills...

  • Ah, that's a shame. Good luck :)

  • To be honest, I'm not sure if there's a way to auto delete, I've only ever done it manually. I think Plex can be set up for it, but I'm not sure.

  • As I understand it, which I'm not sure I do, the -arrs will automatically grab torrents. In my mind, this would eat up a TB pretty quickly.

    You seem to be partly misunderstanding. They only grab what you tell them to, so they won't automatically fill your disks with random videos.

    What they do is grab any movies or TV series that you specify, and give you the option to upgrade them to a file size and quality limit that you set. For example, you could tell them that movies can be a maximum of 10GB per file, and TV can be a maximum of 3GB, and that you'd prefer 4k.

    There are profile options that let you grab any available copy of a video, and upgrade it as better versions come along.

  • Have you turned on debug logs? I haven't used Whisparr, but on the other *arrs, debug logging gives more information about how they searched, and if something was found but rejected.

  • Don't trust hacked software to protect you from hacked software.

  • Voyager is a good Lemmy app that's worth a look 👍

  • I don't remember the steps, but there used to be a way to do it through Calibre. You could download your library into the Kindle desktop program, run a DRM removal tool, and have them available through Calibre.

    You might have had to remove the DRM through Calibre, I'm not sure. Hopefully this gives you somewhere to start though :)

  • Some services will take gift cards. You find out the amount you need to pay, and convert it to your currency, buy a gift card in cash for the amount, then send the code from the gift card to the service.

    You have to trust that they won't just run off with the funds, but the whole point is to pick a service that you trust in the first place.

  • Aren't doing terribly? Every one of them is overhanging the pavement.

  • On a post talking about modifying the body, you say you want a magic ring? Do I dare open the link? :o

  • On the bright side, you've just reminded me that I haven't watched the Christmas special yet :)

    I'm so proud :D

    I was pottering around in the kitchen today, kind of distracted, doing Dad things* when my seven year old taps me and says 'Dad, is the fridge running?' Confused, I said yes, of course it is.

    The little sod says 'Well you'd better go and catch it then' and gives me the look. Amazing :D

    *you know, poking things to see if they still work, so that my wife doesn't give me a real job to do...

    Decent Linux Java launcher?

    I've been playing on Linux using Sklauncher for a while now, but it's feeling more and more like a scam. Every time there's an update to the launcher, the old one is immediately disabled. You can only get the new one from their ad riddled site, often with inappropriate ads, and it 'can't' handle the traffic. The download buttons are linked to the ads, so ads can't be blocked either.

    It feels like the launcher is being disabled in order to force traffic to their site, making people watch the ads for over an hour in some cases.

    Because of this, I want to find another launcher that allows mods, preferably easily. Does anyone know of a decent one please?

    Update: For anyone who comes across this thread in the future, I ended up going with Prism Launcher. A few of the options threw me at first, but it's turned out to be exactly what I was looking for :)

    Can I undo root?

    Hi all :)

    It's been a while since I modded a phone, so I'm a bit out of touch. If I root my phone and uninstall some apps, can I remove root afterwards so that I can use things like banking apps without workarounds?

    I've got a Xiaomi Mi 10t Lite 5g, and it keeps automatically reinstalling its own apps, which then screw up my apps because they take over functions.

    If I can completely remove apps rather than just hiding them, that would be a bonus.

    Thanks for your help :)

    Best way to add photos to a web app?

    Hi all :)

    I'm putting together a web app for a small music festival, and part of what I want to do is add photos from the various events that we hold. At the moment, they're being posted to Facebook, but I'd prefer to have something separate from that.

    My thinking is to make a slideshow of lower resolution photos for the web app, and keep the full sized versions on Facebook so that people can download or share them. Even doing this is going to eventually bloat the app though.

    The other problem we have is that there's no budget for storage, so I need to make it for free if that's possible.

    Does anyone have any better idea than a lower resolution slideshow please?
