Well that's not anti-competative. We're at or above Carnegie and Standard Oil levels of monopoly shenanigans.

Yeah, it won't. Only Plex's own screengrabs.

For Plex:

In YouTube download-material settings: Extra-> check "generate nfo files"

In plex, create a library called "YouTube" or whatever you'd like, category set to "other videos". Use scanner: "Plex Video Files Scanner" set agent to "Personal Media."

Under Plex settings "Agents" make sure under both the "movies" and "shows" tabs that the "personal media" agent is set to use "Local Media Assets" and that that is top priority.

Plex will use the nfo files generated by ytdl for metadata.

I believe there is a dedicated YouTube series agent, but those can be finicky. This way, ytdl has already done all the metadata work.

Haha, same. Stuck Prowlarr on there because why not? That's the beauty of this setup. It takes no effort after gluetun is set, so no reason not to just attach anything even remotely questionable.

Docker with a gluetun container. This container's only role is to connect to my VPN provider. Any traffic I want through the VPN is set to use that container as its network. If the VPN goes down, gluetun loses connection, any container attached to gluetun can no longer access the internet.

I use a qbittorent docker container for my torrent client but you can attach whatever client you're comfortable with, as well as any other container you prefer be on a VPN.

While qbittorent has a built in kill switch, this works for everything. No VPN means no connection, period.

if Azerbaijan invades actual Armenia proper, then that's a different story.

The possibility of that happening is literally the linked article.

Nagorno-Karabakh is internationally recognized as part of Azerbaijan. Always has been.

Internationally recognized, fine. The population was about 120,000. 100,000 fled to Armenia after the attack. I'm sure they care about international lines on a map.

Always has been is categorically false. Armenia has been a country for about a thousand years before the ones who drew the lines on your map.

The "Christians being persecuted" crowd only care about Target selling shirts with rainbows.

They were actually the first Christian nation in 301 AD/CE. Not that state religion is great, but it's an interesting history given they were sandwiched between the Romans and the Parthians at the time and were pretty much a football between the Romans and whoever was nextdoor throughout the entirety of the Roman empire. If they aligned with "nextdoor" the Romans often ignored them as long as they didn't allow armies from nextdoor through. And when the Romans had their own puppet king over there, well, bully for them.

Not much has changed. Now they're sandwiched between Turkey, Azerbaijan, Iran, and Georgia, with Georgia being a Russian conduit at least militarily if not politically. And Turkey and Azerbaijan are effectively one and the same with Azerbaijian having a dash of Russian influence. That's not a great place to be if you're a tiny country served as an appetizer to the surrounding powers.

Anyway, welcome to my TED Talk.

What could of possibly made Turkey fall in line as heavily as it has.

F16s.

Which is yet another reason why the West will hang Armenia out to dry.

Turkey already endorsed a corridor between the two countries through the south of Armenia, immediately after the attack on Artsakh, literally 4 days, while 100,000 Armenians were fleeing.

https://www.reuters.com/world/azerbaijani-turkish-leaders-hold-talks-eye-forging-land-corridor-via-armenia-2023-09-25/

Why would Armenia open this corridor voluntarily? Azerbaijan already pinky swore Artsakh wouldn't be attacked. Erdogan knows how this will be solved, and it won't be pen and paper.

They also have many of the pipelines that send oil/gas from that region to Europe. Hence the hand wringing and platitudes from the West rather than actual help. Aliyev knows this.

And when Armenia had the gall to even hint at trying to break from under Russia's thumb to the West, Aliyev got the ok from Russia to teach them a lesson.

Azerbaijian took Artsakh/Nagorno-Karabakh 8 days later, in spite of a prior Russian security agreement to prevent exactly that.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding you, but Armenians aren't muslims, they're majority Christian.

They were suspended by vote, then AFTER the vote results they said they had actually already quit. It was elementary school playground levels of "nuh uh" and within a year they tried to come back.
