Do any of these services make recommendations for what you can watch next? The way Last.fm shows what other similar people like.....it would be good to have something like that for TV and movies tailored to my tastes.

I'm reading a green text post here, and then the comments are analysing the situation as if this is r/amitheasshole. What's going on Lemmy?

Sunday: when we've got a party planned for my 4 year old's birthday with his nursery friends.

Saturday: my father heard this is happening, thought he could invite some people to our party; and now we have extended family coming from out of town who say they will come on Saturday and stay overnight.

I've made a huge mistake breaking my personal rule to avoid all political content and I've regretted that immediately

Oof. Poor Americans. The 4 year shit show you're going to have to put up with.

Thanks. I'll check it out. The downloaded files were 35GB for 1080p resolution. Don't know what the hell it was doing.

Synology NAS. I think it is a DS220+ or something like that.

You can make a DIY NAS with an old cheap PC. Or pay a premium for Synology and they make things a bit easier (although setup can still take quite a learning curve if you don't know about this stuff).

I've used Mailbox.org for years as a service that replaces most of my Google services at once. I know you just asked for email and Mailbox is worth checking out.

1. Mostly Lemmy/Reddit/social circle recommendations

2. Download

3. I used to download directly to my phone and watch there. Then I got a NAS and started copying from my phone to the NAS. Then I set up download software on the NAS to have it always on. Then got Plex set up. Then the Arr's (although these are janky and I end up doing a lot of manual additions).

4. Plex

I would highly suggest getting a NAS and playing around with it. Self hosting is complicated, but I got it as a "dumb" network drive on my LAN. Then slowly I started adding on different Docker containers and added to it. Each setup was a painful learning process of errors and troubleshooting, so don't try to do everything in one go.

You don't even need to be a pirate for self hosting. You can buy dirt cheap physical media on eBay and rip it to make a pretty huge personal library on the cheap.

They're only doing this so that they can sue you for walking in real life.

Efficiency is making the same structure work for dual purposes.....like garbage disposal + procreation.

Lemmy as a Reddit replacement.

Facebook - pseudonym account solely for FB marketplace.

Do YouTube and WhatsApp count as social media?

You mean Disney?

You mean Disney?

The same happens with live TV and the amazement of having to accept and watch whatever is being broadcast.

I've loved getting older and getting more and more out of touch with young people's social media trends.

Lowest panel should be the wake up alarm. My mornings have been so much better since using a talk radio station as a morning alarm. This is so much gentler than waking up to a blaring alarm noise. It's quite pleasant having soft vocal sounds for waking up, and then lying in bed for 5 min listening to the radio rather than bashing snooze and sleeping again to wake up groggy to a blaring bell in 5min. Highly recommended.

Do not use a song as the morning alarm. You'll end up hating the song.

Always has been.
