I just finished the fourth "Beware of Chicken" book by Casual Farmer and it was great. I am really loving the series so far!

Before that was Torment from the Infinite series but I may have mentioned that in the last thread.

And just started book 57 in Deathlands!

I think I will do similar and have a hardcore day tomorrow :D

Don't get me wrong I don't regret setting it all up as it was a good, if somewhat steep learning curve for me as someone with no Linux experience beyond installing a couple of distros and using them solely as GUI OS's. In all honesty though keeping it simple and having full control over the files I'm getting is working absolutely fine for me and I don't feel the need to make it any more complex with the various arrs, the only exception being I want to look deeper into bazaar as I need subtitles for everything.

Anyway I do absolutely nothing to clean up the files. I copy my magnet links into qbittorrent and set which folder I want it to download to, movies / shows etc. Jellyfin libraries are set to each of these folders by their respective type and then when some new stuff is downloaded I'll just access my jellyfin dashboard and scan all libraries.

So far with zero file cleaning jellyfin has detected 85% of things correctly regardless, for anything not detected it takes barely any time to go into the identify menu, search for the correct title and choose the relevant correct info.

I'm running proxmox with 3 VMs, one for docker with the arr stack, qbittorrent and gluetun to direct all that traffic via my VPN. One for a Plex server (which hasn't failed to detect anything so far without file cleaning) and one for the jellyfin server.

I recently had my first foray into this setup and I have found the arr stack to be all but useless on public trackers. I haven't setup flaresolvarr so that I can use 1337x and maybe that is why it is so terrible for me but prowlarr couldn't even find a fast and furious movie that is a popular, well seeded film.

Maybe the addition of 1337 would make it much better but I'm skeptical as to how much difference that one place can make.

I ultimately now just find what I need manually and add the torrent to my server via the web interface then leave it and everything else sorts itself, which I'm fine with doing.

Maybe I'm missing something but I think the arr stack is massively overrated on public trackers. I'm going to look into Usenet next as someone else suggested but it isn't anything I've ever used and I don't have the money to pay for any right now anyway.

Thanks for the recommendations, I'll check them out. Professional can be over rated, especially in terms of hardcore xD

Awesome! I have listened to them for a while now but never seen a show near me.

According to this list the switch currently has around 40 exclusive games. The majority of these I'm guessing are Nintendo games and will probably be ones that emulators prioritise working with.

For everything else you could want there is probably going to be a PC version or another console that could also be emulated should the switch version not work. The PC version will probably be superior anyway as switch games are mostly running in an inferior manner.

I dont think this is even a question that needs considering when you factor in the sheer amount of other game options you have for the steam deck whether you are pirating them or actually purchasing them. In my opinion you'd be foolish to get a switch, not least because Nintendo are a deplorable company and personally I think their first party games are shite.

I default to DODI but sadly this game wasn't available from them. I'm still very new to Linux and this is my first foray into repacks on there so it is just a learning curve :)

When did I once "blame the OS"? Just because I am frustrated with not being able to get it running I never once said it was the fault of the OS. In fact the opposite, I care about continuing to use the OS and that is why I spent so long troubleshooting my issue......

Lol wut, my wallet is empty hence why I'm using repacks and my initial post was about the frustration of getting them to run on Linux...... So what are you on about?

looks at empty wallet after paying for rent and food for the month :P

Yeh proton is pretty good and I know things are way better than they ever were before but things still aren't always simple for people with no experience of Linux :)

Me spending 4 hours last night trying to get a repack to install in lutris for it to crash every 5 mins xD
