I’ve never understood the desire to stand while peeing. Sure; when you’ve got too - like outside - or if a toilet is filthy and you don’t want to touch it; but I’ve always been happy to take the opportunity to sit my lazy ass down for a minute. Plus I never have to worry about aim or cleaning up if I miss.

Except it’s on my balls

Kinda makes me curious about the logistics. You can’t exactly mark it as ‘read’.

Do they just keep it on until he shows up? What if there’s more than one crime happening? How long will they wait for some sort of response?

Try a generic HDMI splitter, or a multi input selector like a living room stereo.

it wouldn’t be owned by pornhub. It would be owned by MindGeek, their parent company.

Which, In Americas current legal/political landscape, is more than enough to link them and insist they have an obligation to prevent users accessing MindGeeks own legally restricted content.

They need a significant separation to cover their own asses. Common corporate ownership doesn’t provide that separation.

I presume you mean, so users in individual States or other regions that restrict it can access pornhub

No.

A VPN provides a layer of plausible deniability where PornHub can say “we don’t know those connections come from [restricted region] so we didn’t know we had to bock them/verify IDs”. All they see is connections comming from the VPN exit server location, which is very likely in a more forgiving/less restrictive region.

If PornHub owns the VPN as well, they now know the true location of the user as well as what they’re accessing and will be scrutinized much further about those connections.

I’ve not seen one of those in use in the half dozen servers I’d looked at; but I’ve barely used that shit show of a platform.

Regardless, it’s not publicly accessible/indexable and I’m not willing to enter into their new binding arbitration agreement just to look around. (the new ToS)

Discord can go fuck themselves.

I fucking hate Discord and how it’s absorbed what should be forums.

When I’m creating a discussion online about a particular game or project, I’m looking to hear from the broader community over a longer term; not just limited to whomever happens to be online on this one specific platform at the time of posting.

People have different schedules, we’re not all online together at the same times; especially when you factor in timezones. Discord however makes it massively frustrating if not impossible to hold a discussion unless everyone you want to talk to is present and ready to read and reply now. Otherwise your conversation gets burried in the mess of other people having their own conversations and nobody wants to scroll through thousands of messages in the history of when they last logged on.

You can break out conversations into their own rooms, but that only goes so far and at that point you may as well just have a damn forum; that’s what they are for.

Then you get into the problem of repetition and searchability. People often run into common problems or ask the same questions; but with Discord, you’ve got to re-explain the same things every time they’re brought up, instead of just pointing the user to an old forum post that already solves their problem (they may have even found it themselves through a web search, saving them from even having to ask and waste people’s time. Discord isn’t indexed by search engines so old conversations/solutions are lost).

A group chat platform is not an acceptable replacement for a forum and I will die on that god damn hill.

That can be found right here:

That will solve part of the problem, preventing downloads before an item has even released; but there’s still lots of potential to grab unwanted torrents and leave the arrs asking for intervention when they can’t import it.

Ideally the indexers would be filtering out this junk before users can even grab them, but failing that I think we’ve got a decent solution. Check out the edited OP

No, I don’t. Haven’t been on Reddit for 2.5 years though, so why would I.

Stop torturing yourself OP. Move on.

Check out the edited OP.

I’m taking a look at this. It looks like it’s the malware blocker portion that I’m interested in, but if I enable it and ‘delete known malware’, it just complains every minute that there are no blocklists enabled. (though the documents say it’s supposed to fetch one from a pages.dev url that has almost no content)

Do you have a specific malware blocklist configured? Enabling the specific service blocklists demands a url for one.

I can host/build a list over time for these to use if that’s what I’ve gotta do; just wondering if there’s a public collaboration on one already on the go.

/edit: found it

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Cleanuparr/Cleanuparr/refs/heads/main/blacklist

That’s what I’d already done as per the OP, but it leaves Sonarr/Radarr wanting manual intervention for the ‘complete’ download that doesn’t have any files to import.

I just did some digging and found I do have some good quality content from them, but they were all grabbed via NZBGeek.

Every torrent I’ve gotten with that label has been garbage/malware.

This comment prompted me to look a little deeper at this. I looked at the history for each show where I’ve had failed downloads from those groups.

For SuccessfulCrab; any time a release has come from a torrent tracker (I only have free public torrent trackers) it’s been garbage. I have however had a number of perfectly fine downloads with that group label, whenever retrieved from NZBgeek. I’ve narrowed that filter to block the string ‘SuccessfulCrab’ on all torrent trackers, but allow NBZs. Perhaps there’s an impersonator trying to smear them or something, idk.

ELiTE on the other hand, I’ve only got history of grabbing their torrents and every one of them was trash. That’s going to stay blocked everywhere.

The block potentially dangerous setting is interesting, but what exactly is it looking for? The torrent client is already set to not download file types I don’t want, so will it recognize and remove torrents that are empty? (everything’s marked ‘do not download’) I’m having a hard time finding documentation for that.

Awesome. Thanks you two, I appreciate the help. :)

Ok, I think I’ve got this right?

Settings > Profiles > Release Profiles.

Created one, setup ‘must not contain’ words, indexer ‘any’, enabled.

That should just apply globally? I’m not seeing anywhere else I’ve got to enable it in specific series, clients, or indexers.

To be perfectly honest, auto updates aren’t really necessary; I’m just lazy and like automation. One less thing I’ve gotta remember to do regularly.

I find it kind of fun to discover and explore new features on my own as they appear. If I need documentation, it’s (usually…) there, but I’d rather just explore. There are a few projects where I’m avidly following the forums/git pages so I’m at least aware of certain upcoming features, others update whenever they feel like it and I’ll see what’s new next time I happen to be messing with them.

Watchtower notifies me whenever it updates something so I’ve at least got a history log.
