  • I read the original comic on paperback in black and white, went to launch parties for the releases, then bought it in colour, lost both sets in moves, bought it all in digital form, then again in a physical box set when I settled down. Saw the movie several times in theatres and own the original bluray and then 4K release bluray as well. I also bought Lost at Sea and Seconds as my first gifts to my now wife.

    Suffice to say, I’m a fan of the series and the creator.

    I fucking loved the new spin on it. So so so much. I loved getting to explore some of the other characters who didn’t get as much spotlight in previous adaptations. I loved the whodunnit we got to explore with Ramona, who is much closer to the Ramona of the books than the movie, and I felt was a welcome change, even if the portrayer (who I still love) was the same. The Easter eggs and hints for the fans of the series were great as well.

    The one thing I kept looking for, hoping for, waiting for … where the fuck is Lisa Miller.









  • On my main server: I have my SSD RAID1 ZFS snapshots of my container appdata, VM VHDs and docker image, that is also backed up as a full backup once per night to the RAID10 array, then rsynced to the backup server which then is uploaded to the cloud.

    The data on the RAID is backups, repos or media that I’ve deposited there for an extra copy it for serving via Plex/Jellyfin. I have extra copies of the data, and if I were to lose the array totally, I wouldn’t be pleased, but my personal pictures/videos wouldn’t be in danger.

    I run two back up servers, which both upload to the cloud. One of which takes bare metal images of all my computers (sans servers bulk drives), the other which takes live folders.

    This is more due to convenience so that I can pull a bare metal image to restore a device, or easily go find a file with versioning online if necessary on both accounts.

    As a wise man said, you can never have too many backups.






  • There’s no soulseek integration yet, but that would be a game changer, the collections in there are incredible, especially when trying to find EPs, singles and rarities. We’ve been waiting for a good long while though.

    In the meantime, it’s a lot of work to build a collection, even with lidarr, torrents, semi-private, private trackers and usenet.

    For soulseek, I’d recommend setting a blackhole torrent client that points to the soulseek download folder, them always make sure you download the folder not the files from the share. That will make importing the files a lot easier into lidarr if you choose to keep that as your centralized download tool.

    There are also extended scripts for lidarr that will pull music from various sources as well.
