I have a pretty elaborate media downloading setup. Though this is a cheap 16TB server that I brought on the cloud for myself. I use Radarr and Sonarr to automatically download movies and tv shows. I use mdblist.com to autogenerate movie lis

I think it would be the other way around. A lot of movies(and tv shows) have games these days. You can already experience Star Wars in VR with “Star Wars Squadrons” and I’m sure we will start to see a lot more games with VR support in the f

That's what they said github copilot was going to do for coding, but I haven't heard of anyone using it to replace developers. Prediction: It's going to run into all sorts of copyright issues, wouldn't be perfect and mak

It should be illegal everywhere, all Proof of Work does is to calculate trillions of hashes every minute, to discard all of them but one. It's very similar to a lottery, with energy being used instead of tickets.

Recent exchange shutdowns have spooked investors who are taking out money in droves. These crypto exchanges maintain fractional reserves, instead of acting like a wallet and holding 1:1. As more people withdraw their money, more exchanges w
