My kids ask when I'm adding a movie to Jellyfin all the time

[-] [email protected] 30 points 3 weeks ago

Mine doesn't care about jellyfin yet. Soon though.

[-] [email protected] 24 points 3 weeks ago

Same. My two older kids (teenagers) will come to me with literal lists of albums and TV shows 😂

Use Jellyseerr will make your life easier, streamline the approval process.

If my parents were hosting Jellyfin, I'd have done the same.

Though in my family, I'm far more likely to be the one hosting, and receiving requests

it's important to teach your children the importance of a healthy seed to download ratio.

This is why I had to go edit all my media's metadata and even edit themoviedb.com with proper MPAA ratings.

Also why I have early childhood, late childhood, and screening libraries for both movies and shows in my jellyfin.

I never clued in when I was a kid in the 90s but we had a collection of all kinds of Disney movies on VHS tapes with handwritten labels and usually 2 or 3 movies per tape. I just thought that was normal.

I'm sure my kids will just think their Jellyfin library is normal.

My kid's always asking my ex, "Mom, why don't you just get Jellyfin? It has, like, everything."

[-] [email protected] 7 points 3 weeks ago

I know she's your ex and all but you haven't shared / set them an servarr stack / Jellyfin up yet?

Booooo, Pirates of the high seas share their knowledge regardless of the person :p

[-] [email protected] 15 points 3 weeks ago

Believe me I've tried.

[-] [email protected] 9 points 3 weeks ago

We'd just tape them off the TV though, so halfway through you'd get an advert for a DFS sale that must end this Sunday, or that bizarre one about milk (Accrington Stanley, who are they?)

I later found out that they'd put these tapes on for us when they wanted to be left alone for a few hours. And we watched them a lot. Not sure what was more worn out by the end, the tape or my dad.

I actually worry more about my kid accidentally narcing on me. Any parents have solutions for this?

[-] [email protected] 66 points 3 weeks ago

Just hide a bag of cocaine in their room. Their credibility will plummit simply by pointing out to authorities that they have a hard drug problem and showing evidence.

Nobody cares. Tell your kids it's illegal once they are old enough to understand. My youngest just realized at 13. She always thought it was just another streaming service.

[-] [email protected] 16 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Now that I think about it, has anyone ever asked Netflix if they have the rights to stream what they're watching? Of course not, you just assume it's fine.

[-] [email protected] 14 points 3 weeks ago

Spotify early projects may have used the pirated MP3s of the employees so...

Narcing you out to who the Motion Picture Association?

Raise your kid to understand when the right time to tell someone when bad things are happening and when to not. This should naturally be taught for what morals and ethics you would want to instill. So the solution is to raise your kids with understanding and don't live in fear. Explain why you move the way you do. Not just monkey see monkey do.

I'd recommend Dr. Ramones' therapeutic procedure.

I guess it's some onion style website. The 20k fine made me not believe the story, otherwise it was totally believable, i know multiple guys who behave like this

[-] [email protected] 34 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Yeah, it’s a satire site that got big in punk rock circles some years ago making fun of the Punk and Hardcore scene.

I didn’t know it was still going.

Edit: there it is! https://thehardtimes.net/about/

They even have a video game spinoff hard-drive.net

My kid is the only one in the cul-de-sac with Minecraft. We have quite the popular couch this month.

[-] [email protected] 16 points 3 weeks ago

If I ever have a kid they will be the one that has friends over for Minecraft LAN parties.

Lmao I'm in the middle of showing my teenager how to pirate and why it is morally justifiable to not pay for Marvel movies.

[-] [email protected] 15 points 3 weeks ago

I just set up AndroidTV so they can watch ad-free YouTube.

Still need a better setup for extracting Amazon video without ads.

[-] [email protected] 8 points 3 weeks ago

My kids are so used to ad-free YouTube, they nag me when it breaks.

[-] [email protected] 14 points 3 weeks ago

I feel validated.

Too bad lots of them are probably in 720x400 resolution (700-1400mb avi encoded 20 years ago) ._. cough cough cough
