RD is just the host. There are several media managers available out of which DMM is one, a lot of which can be integrated with Stremio or Kodi. Torrentio is usually recommended.

They only posted the invite on social media. Guess the demo was done with a NDA, as there is no media report on it.

All depends on the front-end being used. Most of the add-ons are community maintained and automatically scrape IMDb, TMDB, TVDB for all content across all platforms and hence are updated on the same day including Indian OTT platforms. Rest depends on how quickly the torrents are uploaded to all...

To be honest, you will only get file explorer type apps for viewing router-based content over FTP/SMB. Immich is the closest you can get to Google Photos on your own cloud. Local server on a PI or mini PC makes sense for nearly all content.

These services have servers across geographies (like RealDebrid has Mumbai ones). These servers cache torrents that people add to the service. Torrents can be added manually, or else they provide an API through which requests can be made. There are several apps or frontends (like Stremio) that...

The ELK stack is basically a standard in ITOps for observability and monitoring, so you should be able to find loads of tutorials. However, with it going closed-source, you might look into OpenSearch instead.

I was seeing this already for bank EMI offers in the past month. Guess they extended it to all bank offers now. The idea of all platforms charging a platform fee in addition to their commissions is going out of control now and needs to be regulated.

My laptop's factory image is for Home edition, so that caused it to be enabled by default when I reset everything a few months ago. It is a fully unattended installation and hence there is no specific prompt for BitLocker, unless you are trying to boot another OS from the same drive or trying to...

On the laptop, the PCIe 4x4 bandwidth is certainly getting shared. However, the benchmark was still too low. I couldn't put a finger on it but later in the day, with the extra space, I decided to finally enable over provisioning on the 990 Pro which is when I realised that I had Bitlocker...

You will certainly not get better specs for the price from a mini PC. The only concern would be about MSI's build quality. Their lower end laptops generally have poor thermals and reliability problems. It also has more than a few firmware issues, considering the problems with operating it...

It is not exactly as good but good enough. Had read about it previously on one of the sites, so sharing here for reference as well. https://sabrent.com/blogs/storage/dram-hmb

That happened the first time which I did so myself. However, this particular fan had a knocking sound. The technician actually hammered and broke the internal casing first time around saying the sound is due to friction with the PCB which wasn't the case. The next time, the technician said it is...

Practically don't see much difference between the two in terms of usage. For gaming, both will operate close to what DirectStorage is capable of. However, having a DRAM drive as the boot drive is still a better option.

I have been using 2 BLDC fans in my living room from the Crompton Energion series. Airflow is not a problem at all. There is a regulator version that is sold offline but costs extra. As of now, I have been using only 1 remote for both the fans (kept other one as spare) since I don't need to vary...

Yeah, unfortunately my laptop's secondary drive has no clearance with respect to the shroud that runs over it. It has space at most to only apply a thermal pad which of course will only make things worse. My primary drive has a thermal pad and heatsink and if I were to swap the two, I am pretty...
