A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

How did you download so much? Radarr lists?
Mostly some custom scripts for scraping yts.mx, cross-referencing imdb for e.g. top 50/100 box office for each year (https://www.imdb.com/search/title/?year=${YEAR}&title_type=feature&) and automatically uploading to and downloading from my seedbox. Tried radarr but it wasn't really my thing. They're all basically garbage 1080p encodes but for their size they're passable enough for me, and my goal was a large library for discoverability not a small one for quality, so it worked out perfectly for that. Also been checking r/opensignups (RIP reddit) for good trackers when they have open registration for the occasional specific stuff that I want in better quality.
