    1. Meet woman, don’t be weird.

    2. Gradually build a loving, trusting relationship.

    3. She has to get surgery and she’ll be bed-bound while she recovers.

    4. “Will you take care of me, Anon?”

    5. Lord of the Rings marathon. The director’s cuts. She can’t run.

      When you’re torrenting and you’re planning to watch with someone else, you decide what you’re watching at least eight hours in advance, preferably a day. Radarr can’t find stuff instantaneously, assuming the automated search finds it at all, and torrents can take hours to finish, plus leaving time to resolve technical mishaps with your *arr stack, like the VPN being dead. If you and the person you wanna watch with aren’t going to be in the same room, you’ll have to set aside even longer in order to transcode it into a format a browser can play at a bitrate that’s low enough to stream, and load it into your HTTP server so that Cytube can play it. Ideally you’d block out some time to test and troubleshoot Cytube too.

      I prefer NGINX with autoindex. Lightweight, no JavaScript, looks like every Linux ISO mirror, filenames already have all the required info, can be quickly searched with CTRL+F, fits perfectly to my laziness.

      If you want some improvement, you can use FancyIndex module.

      But the files need to be in codecs supported by your browser(s). I prefer AV1+Opus in WebM container which have been supported by Firefox for a while. At this point it’s really only Safari not fully supporting AV1 because it relies on hardware decoding and Apple wants you to buy new hardware.

    What’s with the “ooga booga woman scared by tech” meme? Like, people have been torrenting for ages, it’s not like it’s underground.

    And just have it downloaded? “Hey, wanna come over and watch ____? Yes? Cool, see you then.” Then start the download. If it’s popular, you’ll have the file in, like, 10 minutes. And if she’s that “confused” by an hdmi cable (which is an extremely common cable these days, but whatever), put it on a flash drive and plug that in. And if someone is interested, I can’t imagine setting something up would make them leave? “Oh gosh, he had a laptop and a… A cable, you say? Well golly gee, I should run away from this fringe tech afficionado because who does that???”

    I don’t know why some guys act like tech just washed over women. We were there sailing the same high seas as the rest of ya’ll.

    “What do you mean the movie will come from the laptop?” Boy, bye

      You can also press one button to configure a torrent to download first and last, allowing you to play a video while it streams in.

      Anon can’t even torrent right, she just got scared that he’d be too stupid to put on the condom right.

    This is why you have a server running jellyfin qbittorent, Jackett, sonarr, radarr, all behind a good VPN.

    Anon is obviously a noob and deserves the walkout.
