    liliumstar ,

    I checked out the main feed, OP. Not sure this is going anywhere based on the content I saw. I have no opinion on the site as a technical work.

    liliumstar ,

    I think an open-source general device benchmark would be cool. Including CPU / GPU / Battery life metrics. As far as I know, everything that does this is proprietary.

    PGSub - A Giant Archive of Subtitles For Everyone ( gitlab.com )

    I've been working on this subtitle archive project for some time. It is a Postgres database along with a CLI and API application allowing you to easily extract the subs you want. It is primarily intended for encoders or people with large libraries, but anyone can use it!...

    liliumstar OP ,

    As mentioned in the post, from three sources. The two site dimps were publicly available as torrents. The third was distributed privately.

    Don't buy into any site requiring money. There are plenty of good private trackers run by community members. Once you join and get your feet, feel free to donate if they are doing a good job.

    Google Allows Creditors to Brick Your Phone ( lemmy.world )

    I installed NetGuard about a month ago and blocked all internet to apps, unless they're on a whitelist. No notifications from this particular system app (that can't be disabled) until recently when it started making internet connection requests to google servers. Does anyone know when this became a thing?...

    liliumstar ,

    I checked and this is not present on my device. It is an unlocked Google Pixel 6a purchased via contract with the mobile provider. That said, I factory reset the device when I got it, so it may have been removed at that time.

    Tracker recommendations

    I'm pretty new to the scene and am trying to build up a content library for a jellyfin instance I'm running. I know a lot of the higher quality torrents are on private trackers so im intested in joining one but the ones ive found seem pretty closed. Even the ones with open sign-ups seen to want proof of my reputation with other...

    liliumstar ,

    There are pretty okay trackers asking for no proofs on open signups. It's mostly a matter of patience. You can even just sign up for everything and see what's a good fit, but be sure to use unique passwords on everything to be safe.

    If FNP or LST open up again I would suggest signing up, they are shaping up to be good entry level trackers. Also TL usually opens a couple times a year. It's a massive site but kind of a mess when it comes to curation. Don't use iPT unless you have no other option.

    People will tell you to join book/music trackers to rank up, but unless you like grinding I'm not sure this is the best route.

    liliumstar ,

    Like others, I had an account before this was implemented. I have a couple projects on there, also mirrored to self hosted gitea. Have had people refuse/unable to contribute to the gitlab project due to the kyc requirement, so I'm thinking I will migrate to codeberg soon.

    liliumstar ,

    I know that DO does require KYC, not sure about Vultr.

    Namecheap does not. I have a VPS with them, paid via crypto, and they don't have any real details about me.

    liliumstar ,

    That looks like a web hosting provider, not a VPS.

    More things like Star Trek?

    Over the last few years my family and I have binged all of Star Trek, then moved on to Star Trek adjacent shows like The Orville and Stargate. At the moment we're not really watching anything sci-fi. I was wondering if anyone had recommendations for similar shows (or maybe some books) that fill the void left by Star Trek. In...

    liliumstar ,

    I'd say the The Expanse fits the bill. It is a book series with a very successful television adaptation.
