I am seriously debating on deleting everything. It is around 40 tb of video...
Those of you who say porn isn't addicting are crazy
18k videos. Jesus christ. Tell me you have not watched them all...
David Sullivan
Not all. Most
it is close to 345 days of video...
Carter Ramirez
You should mega that shit.
Jaxson Perry
...
Jacob Rodriguez
Mega 40tb...? In what.. like 2000 smaller zip files?
Austin Gray
Thank god I am not into VR porn... yet.
James Mitchell
Wtf, 50% of the posts are dubs. What is this blessed thread.
Dominic Thompson
STFU get faggot
Leo Torres
Why not? Seperate Mega(s) for each "flavour/fetish" pandered to...
Caleb Nguyen
No way. If I was to do anything I would torrent host it.
Jordan Campbell
Upload them periodically to pornhub, xxnx, xvideos, xhamster get hella views and monetize it
Christopher Campbell
And then, go to jail. Right now, everything I have done is legal
Brayden James
This is now a get thread, checkem
Jace Ross
Delet them. Don't fap for a week.
Isaiah Murphy
don't delete, don't be me, "meh i'll delete it. I can find/stream the same vid online" >mfw no vids of said porn online anymore delete common ones you can find easily, others keep there's worse to be addicted to. Porn'emon Gotta watch 'em all. You wanna be a Porn'emon Master Don't You?
Samuel King
With all that porn left unwatched, is there a programmatic way to filter out dupes?
Andrew Fisher
Monetize your program? iOS and Android store? You could set up a website with a donation link and your program download + instructions on how noobs can set up their own porn storage server.
Benjamin Taylor
There are 0 dupes. It checks the urls, set title, titles and filenames before finishing the download and adding to the database. All of those are unique.
Well, mostly. There are a few dupes due to some sets being montage collections of variois scenes. Super rare though.
Grayson Watson
So what type of porn do you download? How do you store your shit? I imagine some sort of RAID-based system. Are you using Linux? ZFS?
Aiden Baker
Don't upload it anywhere. Just turn your local server to a web server with adds
Jaxon Diaz
It is basically rips of Brazzers, Evil Angel, Elegant Angel, Jules Jordan, Reality Kings, XEmpire, Video Box, ect. Focus on anal, mostly.
I store them on a, currently, 8 bay QNAP NAS. That has changed a lot over the years. The drives are set up as singles. I debated on raid mirror setup but it is too expensive. Parity on 6 and 8 tb drives is pointless. Instead, I keep a backup of the sql database. It contains all the info for if a drive fails. So if one dies, I tell the downloader to requeue all of those videos and let it redownload them.
I run the risk of losing some videos, as sites tend to remove some. But it is a compromise.
Gabriel Sanders
Porn is addicting. But you have not hit rock bottom yet user. Eventually all the dopamine rushes drop to the absolute minimum. An orgasm no longer gives pleasure. For substance abuse this is called tolerance. Once you hit this point you release it is time to reboot.
2015 I fully embraced my porn addiction since it was the few things in life that made me happy. And now I am so chemically indifferent from porn that I quit of my own volition, not because it is bad. Life is about balance. If you abuse sugar, alcohol, water, porn etc there are consequences, this is the immutable contract given to us as living organisms.
Daniel Evans
Just for a moment,just Imagine what you could have done with all the time you lost: learn a new lenguage, fuck at least 3 girls, train at the gym, learn any type of self defense, etc etc. At the end you are slave of your porn. The own you. If you dont want it to deleted just remove the harddrive for you computer at least for a month. Try to get an off time. BTW i deleted my 10years old porn collection was just 400gb.
Parker Taylor
Ffs, create a new pornsite Sup Forumshub
Noah Watson
Should go with RAID-6 at a minimum, dude. That being said we do not have the same tastes in porn... I dunno how you find that shit interesting.
Caleb Green
What shit? Porn? Anal sex or scat?
Jacob Cox
Raid 6 on larger drives has a huge potential of failure. Lots of tests have shown your data is actually safer on singles vs raid 5 and 6 when you go beyond 4tb drives.
If I had the money, I would do mirrors, but it isn't worth it. Especially when 90% of the data is still on a web server I can re-download it from with literally 1 button click.
As for the video genre, what part? Do you prefer home made/amature?
Colton Gutierrez
Those studies are pretty old now. Drive failures have gone down significantly, and you only need to do RAID with eight 10 TB drives to get a significant amount of space. If you have a large array, the chance of failure is much higher, but the chance of 3 drives failing over a 24 hr period isn't that high. ZFS also rebuilds far faster than traditional RAID because it doesn't do parity on empty space. It also makes sure your data is consistent and doesn't have any data degradation, which is a huge issue.
Yeah, I prefer amateur a lot more. The professional setting doesn't really do anything for me.
Nathaniel Nelson
Wew lad, I thought I had a problem with my 2.5 terabytes
Dominic Nelson
?
William Thompson
Hmm, I will need to research more. Last time I checked, even at raid 6, the failure rate on a rebuild for 8tb drives was still 25% due to sector failure. But I am by no, Evans an expert in that area. Will look into it, pretty for my next upgrade.
I understand liking amateur more. When I was younger, amateur didn't really exist. At least, not as widely as now. So I was exposed to professional, and got used to it. What bothers me the most about amateur is the production quality. It sounds stupid, but I actually have gotten to the point where I rate directing, acting, camerawork, lighting, ect.
I can't even watch anything below 1080p now without it feeling cheap.
It also is probably the fact that vanilla porn just doesn't do anything for me anymore. Massive over exposure...
Grayson Reyes
Holy shit that first paragraph, I hate typing on mobile.
Jaxon Thomas
Op, I had a similar problem. However I have a girlfriend too. Litch couldnt get it up with her, and when we first met we would bang like 2-3 times a day.
I did the no fap thing and lasted 45 days, pretty much reset our sex life and things went back to how they were before. Some people can drink and not get a problem, others can watch loads of porn and not get a problem, clearly we are not that type that can. Just realize it and adapt.
Justin Rogers
No evans no
Luke Ward
>it is close to 345 days of video...
18080 videos Average porn video has lenght of 7 minutes 60 minutes per hour 24 hours per day
That's about 87 days and 19 hours
Maybe you should start counting when you wank off so you can at least learn to count.
For your numbers to add up every single video would have to be arround 27 and a half minutes long
Nobody ain't got time for that
For reference it took me roughly 4 minutes and about 29 seconds to write this which is about 9 times the average male pornhub session which is quite sad.
Levi Richardson
They are all around 30 mins. They are full professional scenes. Not from pornhub. I pay for all the subscriptions. I use ffprobe for length, etc data. My original calculation was pretty accurate.

>average male user time 30s >takes me longer than that to even find what I'm in the mood for
Jordan Harris
I just used it for an example statistic in case I was questioned about wasting time writting the comment
Anyhow you're missing the fucking point: There's no way you're watching every porn video all the way trough even if you tried it would take years currently and yet you're still piling on? Either become a porn historian or open a website or something or stop downloading get a life and just watch what you already have when you're in the mood
That's normal, I'm referring to the average watch time
Blake Gray
Do people really only take 30 seconds on average? I can crank one out in 30 seconds if I need to, but I try to enjoy myself a little. What the fuck is the point of just cumming as fast as possible?
Charles Lee
The nice thing about amateur is that there's not acting. I mean I understand the quality is lacking, but professional stuff is just cringe for me. I'm not into the "porn look" either.
Asher Phillips
Careful OP you'll go blind and you'll go to hell
Aaron Richardson
Give us a link to your networked RAID, so we can watch the videos you selfish fuck!
Landon Kelly
lol you should monetize your collection and system.
Parker Reed
I actually have watched most if them. Watch about 4 a night on weekdays and about 20 hours on weekends. I keep them playing on a second monitor / device as I do other things. Yeah, it's a problem. I use it like people do with Netflix.
Jacob Russell
See, I like the glamor and vibrance. I get nothing out of amateur.
Though I will fully admit most acting in professional porn is atrocious. Brazzers scenes, especially in the last couple of years, have embraced it and their premise of each scene is just hilarious.
