Also it’d automatically add the movie to your radarr instance
🏴☠️
thanks for introducing me to radarr
Wait until you find Sonarr and the rest of the *arrs
I think my life just became full
No that’s just your hard drive
ouch this hurts
And Jellyfin to play it all with.
Make sure to also VPN
It’s been a while since I’ve sailed the high seas. How difficult is it to get subtitle tracks these days? I’ve gotten used to having them on everything.
Most of the stuff I rip have the subtitles in the file (mkv ftw). But there’s also bazarr
+1 for Bazaarr
You can use bazarr to do it for you
Most things have it and what doesn’t, OpenSubltitles, an open source subtitle resource, does. It’s just linked right into my Jellyfin. I haven’t had to manually find subtitles in years…
You will probably want to have a passing familiarity with Docker.
There’s a built in option for these in VLC, works most of the time (view -> vlsub).
and order popcorn and dim the lights
Probably out of scope but would be such a cool feature for https://docs.seerr.dev/
Shit I didn’t know about jellyseer, I’m gonna test it out
We do that but sit next to each other and you know, talk
Why talk when you both are already looking at your phones?
I really try to make my relationship such that I would never have to directly interact with my partner, but there’s still some work to be done 😔
I suggest a zoom call with your partner to sort it out (cameras off, of course)
I mean, why waste the limited time I have a day with my SO by scrolling together through an endless list of movies and shows. Both of us have the attention span of a beagle, so sporadically swiping through a list during the workday would actually be preferable.
For me it wouldn’t be about avoiding conflict, just a way to remember something that I would otherwise forget as soon as we started looking for something to watch.
See, my wife and I will go back and forth, checking various streaming services and vetoing each other’s picks for the full duration of movie night.
Now when she asks what I want to watch, my first reply is always, “Literally anything except the Netflix menu.”
We discuss the options and often end up talking about something else. So even scrolling through options is nice together time. Unless the actual goal was to see a movie, then that method isn’t that great lol
And this why I’ve come to enjoy going to movies alone. Except for the being married part.
What the actual fuck?
Where is my pitchfork?
Also this app literally exists anyway, I’m pretty sure it even existed when this was posted.
I’m pretty sure it even existed when this was posted.
…earlier today? Yeah, I’m not really surprised to learn it wasn’t developed and published in less than a work day.
Lol it was originally posted in 2020
Do you know what it’s called?
There’s a few I’m going to go with handshake that someone posted further down the one I remember was called something like movieflix
No idea why you’d be downvoted for that but thanks!
Edit… Either I’m finding the wrong apps or neither of those ones do the thing.
I searched movie tinder, there’s matched, movie match, movie tinder for Plex, etc. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=dev.handshake.app
2.2 stars. Woof
I think a lot of us have come up with this amazing new idea only to realize that it already exists
I think there a talk app you can use to talk with your partner.
Do they have gamified aspects and perhaps a lootbox style system? “You had a 7 day streak in talking to your significant other. Here’s two relationship tokens”
If you say the right things, you get to loot your partners box.
Doesn’t sound very replayable tbh
Things can appear in the box from time to time
Jolly Ranchers?
Ugh maybe
We do that but it takes FOREVER and we have limited time because we have kids and we’re so tired. I’d love to have this app to use during the week in breaks from work for a movie after work.
Can it not just be for movies, but for food places as well?
We made a backup - a taqueria. If 5 options get axed we have tacos. No regrets!
A huevo!
I just say “lets go to that place you like” and see what they reply with.
“Okay!”
Now you’re fucked.
Can you put it in the map, my phone is acting weird.
This is what you keep emergency diarrhoea in your back pocket for
Why would I keep that in my pocket‽
“Can you book an Uber?”
You wanna drive tonight?
What was that place called again?
Then you just drive to the closest cantina with margaritas
Haha, I had this ideayears ago of a dating app where you rate random stuff (food, furniture, hobbies, personality traits, actors, etc) and get paired up that way. I imagine it being like Okcupid before enshittification where you could make questions otger people answered and stuff.
It exists, it’s called Handshake
All you need is a firm handshake and putting on the LOTR Extended Edition again
Always works, can confirm
Is there a Open source App? That has the samefunctionns?
Possibly, but not to my knowledge
Not to be confused with the Handshake app for Jobs/Internships
Also not to be confused with handjobs.
Also not to be confused with helping hands
Or Shake Shack.
“Handshake | Let’s Agree”
Apparently it is pretty rubbish at connecting people.
Could be. I’ve used it only once, it worked fine then, but I’m not really in a group that needs tools like this on a regular basis.
Then you add it to the pile of movies you don’t have time to watch together
Found the married person with kids
I’m lucky if I get an hour a day to myself outside of work.
I find i can get alone time if I just skip sleep!
One person picks three (movies, restaurants, events, etc.) that they would be happy with.
The other person selects one out of the three.
Alternate.
We tried that. My wife said my hours of research into restaurants was “low effort” so now she picks three and I choose
You pick by aggregating multiple factors and weight them by probability.
She picks by vibe.
We do one more layer, so it’s called 5-3-1.
Person A picks five options.
Person B eliminates two of them.
Person A selects one of the three remaining.
We alternate who gets to pick the five.
The problem is the catalog is functionally infinite. How can you feel like you’re making a good decision if you don’t exhaust a category?
You don’t have to make a good decision. It’s 20-90 minutes of your life, not a fucking career.
The problem is the catalog is functionally infinite.
It narrows down significantly by region, for restaurants, and by time frame, for events.
Movies as a bit trickier, but you can ballpark that by genre and maybe “new releases” / “<streaming service>” / “criterion collection”
If you’ve got a big enough pool, you’ll get plenty of crossover. “You just matched with a person who wants to go to a Knicks game, watch a horror movie, and dine out at Sopo Korean Eats” is going to get plenty of hits in Manhattan.
I thought we are just matching with a spouse or sig other on what to watch next?
Ah, I thought it was a dating thing
It probably works either way, but I want the local version.
My wife and I read like 4 baby name lists out loud in the car for our second kid but had much better luck with an app we found that had like 4k names, each person reads and swipes, and it shows you the ones you agree on.
Maybe it’s a hammer and nail thing but it sounds good to me for choosing the shared “to watch” list.
Wait… You actually watch the movie? I thought it was just background noise for making out and fucking.
I am so fucking glad I did family movie nights wrong
I wonder what op does when they listen to music then.
The same as a movie, except you do it to the beat. 😌
Smack my bitch up by The Prodigy was found to be the best song for this. Do with this information as you will.
“This song is about beating his gf.”
Me: “It’s not about kissing? Uh oh… I’ve been telling everyone I smack my bitch up every night. 😨”
And, if you’re single, you can always just beat off to the beat
on letterboxd you can filter a user’s watchlist for matches in your own or filter out stuff you’ve already seen. handy.
I just have a massive list of movies and shows I want to watch, and I run it by my wife. She usually just tells me to pick one. Then the burden is mine again.
Let me introduce you to
shuf | head 1. This is literally what picks the next movie for us. If either of us are unhappy, we just remove the movie from the list and try again.
Given the age of thirst post, I’m pretty sure the app already exists.
Awesome, more isolation.
We used an app like this to pick a baby name
I’ve actually thought of this as a new dating service. Too bad I’m lazy.
Get after it someone who needs an SO.
Yes and a genre filter, please.
The app “Queue” does this, as well as the other 50 mentioned in this thread
