...this music was ONLY on the internet archive. It wasn't on Spotify/Apple/Tidal/Deezer/Qobuz/Amazon; It wasn't on private torrenting trackers like OiNK/What/Waffles/RED/OPS; it wasn't on Usenet/Soulseek/public torrenting; it wasn't even on YouTube/Facebook/Instagram/TikTok; it wasn't available in stores; it sometimes wasn't even CATALOGUED on MusicBrainz/Discogs/Wikipedia.

I'm talking about hand-ripped 78s that were ripped in like 10 different ways and then using audiological knowledge determined what the best rip was for the end-user.

I actually HAVE some of these, but I am finding that I didn't write down any metadata and there is NO information on the years, artist, context, b-sides, label, etc ANYWHERE, let alone a copy.

I'm well-aware of the breadth and depth of rare music. I'm aware of obscure demos; 60s and 70s Vinyl-only pressings that were never remastered or re-released on CD; I'm aware of limited run stuff...

...NONE of that compares to music from the 1910s-1930s and how much of it was archived on the internet archive. I'm talking B-Sides and everything. EVEN THEN, they wouldn't have everything, but they had so much.

I'm a young man -- this music isn't my forte -- it became an acquired taste, like all music I now understand. So I am very intrigued and interested and love compiling and even listening to it, but I'm not in the position to truly be motivated to archive all this music like it deserves to. Yet even with my proximity to it, it sometimes feels like I'm the only one who even knows it exists.

Some of these songs are the original recordings of songs everyone knows today as standards; ballads. Some of these songs led to entire genres being formed. Some of these songs feature now-extinct sensibilities and lyrics that are just truly a delight to experience.

I miss the internet archive and I want it back. I have a slew of music I would like to cross-reference; I have many more songs and b-sides from the top (now Billboard then something else) charts of the 20s-40s I want to explore.

It's hard to not feel like this is symbolic of where we are at as a world. It feels a bit eerie knowing this is happening, as if society is decaying in real-time around-us. I hope it's back online soon.

TLDR:

I'm creating a "Netflix" that allows streaming from torrents, and uses Trakt for the library and recommendations, the backend runs on a Raspberry Pi, the frontend runs on web or Tizen ( Samsung TV )

At the moment the backend is 90% complete and it's able to stream movie torrents, the frontend is 40% complete and shows intro, profile selection, and runs smoothly on a 2019 Samsung TV

The long version:

The self-hosted service is being created with two concepts in mind:

1. The backend must be light enough to run on a raspberry
2. The frontend must be able to be installed on a TV a run in any web browser

At the moment I'm targeting Tizen and Web for the simple reason that I have a Samsung TV

I know the existence of Miru but It doesn't satisfy my requirement of simply turning on the TV and doing everything with the TV remote.

I'm also aware of the various Plex-based solutions, but they don't provide immediate streaming and most of them require you to choose what to download from your mobile or computer. ( For plex-based I mean the combination of Plex+*arr+Overseer, Jellifyn+*arr+Jelliseer, etc... )

Miru heavily influences my solution, but it extends on it in two ways:

1. It separates front from back
2. It will support not just anime but everything

What has been done until now:

• Service to obtain lists and their content from Trakt
• Authentication using Trakt
• Image service using TMDB
• Caching everything in the DB
• Torrent search using Jackett and auto-configuration of Jackett ( you don't need to add each tracker manually )
• Algorithm to choose what torrent to use
• Background service that searches for lists of torrents and content of the torrent
• integration with webtorrent to obtain a stream url ( i.e. you call that endpoint and you get an url where you will be able to watch its contents while it downloads )
• The Base of the Web app / Tizen app
• Intro
• Profile selection

What is missing:

• Displaying categories and their content in the UI
• The player
• Know what codecs the browser in use supports so those torrents will be excluded (for example Chrome doesn't support x265 )

The proof of concept works and I'm able to watch stuff on VLC, I plan to have everything ready to be usable in a week and will be open-sourced as soon as it is stable and documentation has been written

I know there's a chance I'm reinventing the wheel and exists a combination of some mediacenter and it's plugins that may run smooth on my TV and has everything I need, but I didn't found it yet, I used in the past Kodi with plugins that was able to stream torrents, but the performance of it was terrible and the time between clicking on what to watch and actually watching it too long. I'm optimising it everything in a way that the time between clicking on what to watch and watching is 0.2s in 99% of the cases

I recently got a kindle, and I refuse to pay money for books after I've paid hundreds for the kindle itself.

So, I went on here to figure out how to pirate books. The problem is that I'm a piracy noob, and it felt like the comments were speaking another language. I didn't understand it for the life of me.

In the end, I figured it out. But I wish I had an "explain it to me like I'm 5" type of guide. So, here I am making one:

ON PHONE:

1. Download the kindle app on your phone and log in.
2. Go to Anna's Archive
3. Search up the title of the book.
4. Make sure it's an "epub" file. You can see that in the little text above the title.
5. Download the book.
6. After it's downloaded, go to the "Files" app in your phone.
7. Click on the option to share the file, and share it with the kindle app.
8. Done! It should now be available on your kindle.

When downloading several books at once, I find it easier to do this on the computer. Repeat steps 2-5 on your computer, then you send an email to yourself with all the files. From there, go to your email app on your phone, download the files, then repeat steps 6-8.

I was just wondering if everyone else has a specific thing that finally pushed them over the edge.

I started with Napster back in the day and have had a Plex server since the first time I heard about them. I've always pirated here and there to watch or listen to things that weren't easily acquired through other means.

But when HBO Max switched to just Max, they cut a bunch of episodes from the one show I was subscribing for. I don't know why that's what did it, but on that day I decided I was done with streaming services. I used to switch back and forth depending on what I wanted to watch and now I just watch what I want when I want.

Well, I guess there were 2 breaking points. I stopped buying most video games back when my Microsoft account was hacked and MS refused to do anything to help me recover it. I lost a decade of downloaded games, DLC, and achievements. For the most part, I just stopped gaming at that point because I was so angry, but now the games I do play are mine and I don't have to worry about them being revoked or stolen.

Just curious to see if you all have similar origin stories.

It's been more than a month, I think? No new imports since then. The site's working though.

I have genuine fear that Microsoft will take action aganist mass grave, considering how popular the project is

And considering many movies/shows and anime websites are taken down by these corporation, will it be the same case for MAS?

Honestly lately for me the indie scene has been where it’s at, or really even single/double A games. AAA is massive slop now
