  • I set radarr up on one of my pi’s to get the episode. At the end of January through to mid April, I think, I was trying to write scripts (I barely know my way between a if and a fi but the scripts where written in bash) to automatically download things but when I finally got it working I told some friends about it who than smashed my hard work with telling me about the arr apps.

    I think I started with Jackett because it worked with my scripts and Transmission. The friend introduced me to Sonarr and Radarr so I set them up to replace my scripts. Something happened a little while ago and my home lab freaked out and decided to stop working so I had to rearrange my stuff. I went deeper into checking out the *arr apps and discovered that prowlarr would be so much better than Jackett.

    If something happens again I may look into other options but hopefully my current setup will work.










  • In plain language, the ruling confirms that under international law, by which Canada is bound, countries are required to take more than voluntary action to address climate change. Major historic polluters like Canada are not just morally bound to cut emissions, but legally required to — or risk charges to compensate communities most harmed.

    I love to hear this, and I love what the kiddos in Ontario are doing. I hope more people take steps like that!

    Smith and Moe are really going to hate hearing this.



  • I own my own domain and use a separate email address for everything, this avoids spam and allows for some security.

    I use a pihole setup, this blocks ads and trackers to avoid all the crap online and allows for some security.

    I try to keep my VPN into my home working (it is currently not working), when it is working my cell phone activity is encrypted as it goes into my home network.

    My ISP router is practically a dumb box that hosts a firewall, I want to setup another computer that will act as the firewall so that the ISP router is just the dumb box. Money is a factor in this!

    I will check out Mulvad and see what is about.

    *edit: I also use Vivaldi as my web browser, which provides some additional security. Wish there was more I could do about but the people I communicate with are not as into security as I am.



  • I do not think you know how democracy works, putting a cap on anything during an election (other than one vote for one person) is not letting the voice of the people to be heard. Putting a cap on how many forms someone can sign is wrong as well. I personally have never signed any longest ballot paper but I have signed multiple papers for people, I am guessing my place got put down as a willing signature giver as I signed a bunch of PPC papers for Saskatoon people until either the friends trying to get enough signatures ran out or I put up a pride flag. Not that I would ever vote for the PPC but because I believe in democracy, if people want to try their hand go for it.





  • Yes, I have cancelled all my amazon things. The thing is though is the people who work there, sure I wish I could say they could just easily find a new job from a Canadian employer but that is going to take time.

    If only we could have predicted that the orange man was going to become president, rip up NAFTA, create CUSMA because he liked the idea that he created it better, then rip up CUSMA because it was the worst deal ever. All while he thinks he is god king of the world.
