PTB.

I don't think having a simplistic or misinformed personal opinion is the same as misinformation. Context made it very clear this was your personal opinion. But not surprising from feddit.org at all.

Trakt.tv has limited lists to maximum 2 of 100 items and watchlist to 100 items unless you pay $60/year - do you have any alternative to recommend? in c/showsandmovies@lemm.ee

I'm totally with you, especially the nationality thing. So first thing I pay for is my VPN. Allows me to read/watch geoblocked content and makes torrenting safer. For that value, it's a dirt-cheap investment. One example: You can watch LTW with John Oliver on youtube a few hours after it aired on HBO if you're in a country where the show has no official license (czech republic works).

For me it's not even about the money ... if it was at least comfortable enough, I'd probably be paying. I'm lazy like that.

But it's not convinient or comfortable. So now my money goes into hardware and I'm hosting my own streaming service, with blackjack and hookers!

Still, financially it will take a while to break even. Around 70 years compared to mid-tier netflix sub (but that was before they raised prices so it's less now).

“that’s what she said” isn't from the Office though. It's way older then that. It was already a catchpharse on Saturday Night Live in the 80s. Probably older then that still.

So in addition to paying for multiple streaming services, there is people that paying an additional service so they can sync the watch history of all the different streaming servies? Damn.

I'm so glad I can just watch everything on plex.

[Help] How do I post and store binary data correctly in Laravel? in c/programming@programming.dev
[–] tobogganablaze@lemmus.org 4 points 2 months ago

I guess it should be, but I've never tried storing files in the DB.

It's rather easy upload files to the file system with the Storage Facades, but that doens't have an build in way to associate the files with models. That's where the spatie media library comes in.

Are you set on storing your image in the database?

If not I'd recommend the spatie media library:

I watched "Frieren: Beyond Journey's End" a few weeks ago which is probably my first proper anime (not counting the odd episode of Dragon Ball, Sailor Moon or OnePiece I caught on TV as a child) and I really enjoyed it.

Especially the slow but deep character build up and general world building and exploration themes were really captivating. So I'm looking for something similar with focus on these aspects.

So far I found "Wandering Witch: The Journey of Elaina", which was ok but didn't quite live up to Frieren and wasn't nearly as captivating.

So does anyone know similar shows or at least shows that focus on the aspects of story telling I mentioned avove?
