Jackett can be run on any computer. It doesn't need a server or any serious hardware. It can probably be run on a $20 Pi. It's just allows you to interact with trackers via API calls.

I use Prowlarr via Docker now a days. It's provides a much better experience to interact with othe instances of ARRs.

I would just keep my PC on 24/7. Did that for a good decade before I built a server. Now the ARR stacks make torrenting on private sites effortless.

This is one of the main reasons Republicans don't like education. They want to dismantle it and go to a charter system. That way they can profit off education and keep people stupid.

Running qBittorrent over web UI was a game changer. I was running it off a personal PC for the longest time (usually my newest gaming machine) but finally built a dedicated server.

Whose ready for some AOL ultimate Frisbee?

To answer the question, I don't think they should be used for anything. Keep a small stack for a rainy day and get rid of the rest. There is a reason they are all it thrift stores and being given away for free. Their are much better alternatives out their for storage. Unless you are a hoarder. Then, just add them to your pile of crap you will never use/need again.

I have burned thousands of CD/DVDs in my life but maybe only 10 in the past 15 years or so.

The need this came out of COVID and a lack of people wanting to go out. It's was a decent way to keep business open who would otherwise have to lay off all their staff. Once COVID ended, I assumed it would go away. However, money talks.

My wife was just saying how she thiks GPS is soon going to have a VIP tier to give you the best routes and the longer routes go to the people who don't pay (but still have their data harvested).

It would be betterest if we could organize this on a large coordinated scale. God help any AI that has been trained on any social media website. It's just not good quality data a large percentage of the time.

It's going to be pretty hard for people to fight for their rights when their stuck in a prison in El Salvador. With no due process, people will get shipped off before they have a chance to plead their case.

It's state sponsored capitalism and China has pumped a ton of money into BYD to get them to where they are.

I can see them giving larger tax breaks to companies in the US, but current administration is all in on tariffs as the way to increase our domestic production. It doesn't make ours any better or cheaper, just everything else more expensive.
