Instead of being condescending and annoying yourself, did you even try to reference other texts or resources to try to figure those things out? This is a freshman's complaint
Yeah ofc you can just rip the media you already own, e.g. Automatic Ripping Machine for physical disks. It's more involved than just drag and dropping files in, but it really is bulletproof once you've got it up and running.
And on "obtaining content you haven't purchased", that content is just another .mkv or .flac file. Doesn't make a difference to your media organizer.
TrueNAS with file system folders. I don't consume media that much so I get away with it. The only media I need to consume remotely is music, which I have gonic for.
I need to check out gonic, thanks for dropping that. Just was wondering since the whole *arr ecosystem seems like it doesn't have any mature alternatives that could cover the whole use case.
Because it's illegal to make a thing whose primary purpose is to facilitate copyright infringement. A thick steel pipe becomes illegal if you fill it with and screw the ends shut, even though none of those components are illegal, because then it's a bomb.
Moore's Law hasn't covered transistors in quite some time.
We get about 10% YoY now, which is actually impressive, but not even close to the past experiences. Computing power used to take 18 months to double, and was being attacked at a bunch of different angles.
Now we are literally out of tricks, to the point where we had to undo some of those tricks because they were fundamentally flawed, and it takes 100x the engineering investment to get that 10% YoY, or sometimes only every other year, and that isn't going to continue for much longer.
We can't increase clock speed much. We can't increase density much. We are out of clever tricks. It takes an entire earth's worth of human talent just to produce the machine that produces the chips. How the hell are people still insisting that computing power continues to follow Moore's Law?
Several of the limits we've hit are fundamental matters of physics.
Meanwhile, LLMs ask for orders of magnitude more compute than is cheap and cheerful right now. Do we even have a single order of magnitude left for compute?
