Lost, the final 2 episodes

This night, ABC broadcasted LOST the final two Episodes. Simultaneously broadcasted abroad where time was still night. I woke up early to discover Lost was posted to Usenet somewhere around 04.15AM, but experience is that it takes around 3 hours to appear for downloading at my side. Only one usenet indexer was that fast to have it downloaded around 06.30 .. 1 hour later (I download to a NAS and unpack it as well so yes that took 1 hour in total. Meanwhile I was watching the ending of Legend of a Seeker) I could start watching the final two episodes (around 1 hour and 45 minutes without advertisements). Music during the show and ending was terrific. After the break …. a spoiler …

Duiken = Fun

Na 2 jaar wikken en wegen nu dan toch maar de knoop doorgehakt, we hebben ons duikuitrusting compleet gemaakt.

Een eerste trap (MK17) en daarbij de 2e trap een S600 van Scubapro. Het duikpak is een Bare Velocity 5/4 full geworden. En voor het trimvest heb ik voor een Scubapro T-force gekozen. Naast het masker, de snorkel en onze zwemvliezen zijn we nu dus compleet. We kunnen nu lekker duiken in en met onze eigen uitrusting. Het is een hele investering maar na een aantal keer duiken heb je de huur er weer uit. 

En dit is het trimvest .. (Scubapro)

In Augustus een EFR curus om daarna door te gaan naar het Rescue Diploma, want we hebben inmiddels onze OW en AOW ..

HellaVCR with CH3SNAS / CH3MNAS

Find here my hellavcr configuration I used with the CH3SNAS / CH3MNAS with the nzbget newsbin configuration I created.
the configuration contains mainy, if not all, tv shows I followed or am following

Just unpack the rar file in a folder and copy it in the /web/ folder of your nzbget installation so that you can access it with http://nas-device:8000/hellavcr

of course you have to create a crontab or manually execute the hellavcr.php script with: php hellavcr.php
note: hellavcr is depending on nzbmatrix and you need a vip account. Unfortunately the search api is offline so this script will not download any valid nzbfile.
But as I got some requests to share my config. Here it is.

Note the download is taken from the w00ty github repository. Where ‘my patch’ for not gzipped nzbfiles is added
