There's a ton of people happy to help on [email protected] if you run into troubles :)

Torrents have two options:
Ideally you use Hardlinking - This creates a 'copy' of the file that's just a link to the original data, instead of actually duplicating it. This only works when both 'copies' are kept on the same drive/filesystem; but gives you two versions so you can leave one available to seed and have one renamed and sorted away.
Failing that, it can fallback to plain duplicating the files. One copy kept to seed, and one copy sorted away.
Personally, I've switched to usenet for 99% of downloads, so seeding isn't really a thing. It's there as a fallback though.
My setup is a conglomeration of a quite a few different pieces; but they are not all required. I'd encourage you to explore, start small and expand into new pieces/areas when you feel comfortable. I started this ~8 years ago with basically 0 knowledge of hosting web services; and just built up the knowledge through exploration over time.
If all you're looking to do is watch movies, and you're happy to play the downloaded media directly on your pc (or move the files around manually, just like manual torrenting); the only piece you need is Radarr.
Once setup; You tell it what movies you want to watch, it searches for those using the indexers you've given it (YourBittorrent, TPB, and BadassTorrents for example), choses the best results out of them all based on things like upload date, seeds, quality descriptors in the title, etc. Then passes that to your torrent/usenet client. Finally it will rename and sort the files into nicely organized media folders for you, once the download client has marked it as complete.
That's what automation is for.
Whenever I come across an interesting movie/show; I open a webpage that I host, search for a title (results from imdb) and click 'add+search'.
~15min later, it's available for me, my friends, and my family to watch on my own private streaming service. (for such reliably quick downloads, I recommend usenet over torrents)
Other users besides me can even request content via Ombi.
Are you sure they won't just be offered a job at the whitehouse? All they've gotta do is say they love Trump and he'll sign a pardon after all.
Lmao, classic troll brownie move. Bonus if he still cut out a square of brownie, but diagonally in the center.
When's the last time a school shooter (that made it to trial, obviously), got slapped with terrorism charges, had the prosecution seek the death penalty, or get prevented from accessing their family/lawyers for extended periods?
I agree, there are few similarities between the two crimes. I would say shooting up a building full of innocent children, particularly when death is involved, is a significantly worse crime than killing a single man. Yet the sought punishments are wildly disproportionate in the opposite direction.
Lmao, cost of doing business.
I've been looking for work lately and getting told the same thing by the employment offices around me (job search assistance).
It feels so bizarre and pushy to email back after an application/interview. I showed up and did my part, the balls in their court now, I'm just waiting for a response. To reach out again seems like I'm leaning over their shoulder and asking 'have you made a decision yet??? How about now, can I have a job now?'
They already know what I want, what I can offer, and how to reach me. What more do they need?
Is America great again yet?
I would definitely bring this up with the landlord; those locks need to be replaced if you can potentially trap yourself inside (or have someone else trap you inside). This is a pretty serious fire hazard for every tenant that has the same door locks.
If the landlord isn't interested in it, talk to the local Fire Marshall.
The arrs are pretty light weight; the memory use can add up when you run several of them with really large libraries alongside other projects, but otherwise I hardly notice them running in the background. You don't need any sort of special hardware; this stuff will run on an old laptop you shove in the corner and ignore.
The part that really takes processing power is transcoding media between formats when streaming it to clients, but that's Emby/Jellyfins job.
