Right, exactly. The alternative to this meme is offering them access to my Plex server.
Welcome to Wrexham.
Not the kind of guy who’d watch something from a USB. Technically not a co-worker but a former co-worker, because he retired a couple of years ago.
I use Musicbrainz-picard to organize music and clean up metadata. For Shows and movies, it’s pretty easy. I use Plex and it’s pretty flexible with naming conventions
Just use something like Jellyfin or Plex. Install the server side software on your laptop and the client side on your Android TV
So you’re saying that you spend like 50 GB or so for every movie in your library? That’s unbelievably impractical. What if you want to download some locally to your phone or laptop for a flight, you have to pick the one or two movies that you think you’re gonna watch. I keep movies in 1080p at about 3 gigs or so. I just flew out to Denver and back and was happy with the dozen movies I was able to download locally for the trip.
Dude it’s like billions of miles away and 50 years old, give it a break
Seconded. Maybe start the how-to with what it is.
I’m a Proton die hard but I hear their Linux VPN client is lacking. I use all of their products but not on Linux.
Yeah, I mean, why get Spotify involved at all? Just pirate that shit
Right. I mean Spotify is a business. Why would there even be an expectation for free ad-free Spotify?
There is no ad free Spotify on IOS to my knowledge.
I don’t understand this sentence. I don’t believe that you can’t pay for Spotify on IOS. Do you mean there’s no free ad-free Spotify?

Why did you have to wait for your phone to ask you?
To add to this, you might as well set up a VPN at the router level for your entire house because Google’s whole business model is surveillance and advertisements, so they’re 100% going to collect all of the data coming and going.
For torrents and for anything else
I use a VPN and maintain a ratio. They must use something other than IP address as a unique identifier.
I use a VPN and it’s on a kill switch, so if it gets disconnected for whatever reason, the machine can’t reach the internet at all.
I can’t imagine why a private tracker would disallow you from using a VPN
It’s all I use. I feel like there’s less risk and they’re way more organized.
Yeah, I used to use yt-dl(whatever) but Seal is just so much more convenient
