Plex to block all servers hosted at Hetzner
When I used a Chromecast, I was fond of an even more direct method. I used a Node CLI called "peerflix" [0] to stream a video file while downloading its torrent (so there wasn't even a need to wait). Then I just opened my browser to the local network address where peerflix was hosting the h264 playlist, and used the Cast button to stream it to my device (which I believe technically means Chromecast "takes over" downloading the playlist, rather than my laptop pushing the video to it, so I just needed to use a URL with the LAN IP of my computer).
At some point I also used a tool to stream to the Chromecast directly from the CLI (castnow?) - or maybe Peerflix even had this option, I can't remember. Nowadays I prefer to watch content on my phone in bed, which is why I like Jellyfin, because the iOS client can easily stream a video I downloaded onto my computer.

Just knock it off with your superiority flex just because you pirate your anime in a certain way, ok?
This is something I've repeated like 10 times on this subreddit, but you don't need to wait for a torrent to finish to start watching it. Literally every torrent client in the past decade supports downloading first piece files first, so you don't have to wait for the download to finish and can start watching it immediately. There's even stuff like peerflix which makes it easier.

Static code generation DSL.
It would be awesome to develop something abstract and useful for usage as common PL (besides just solving specific problem), but it's really hard to develop a general purpose language (with memory management, mutations, etc.). For example, at my work I built reactive library mostly similar to Rx.js or Bacon.js, but with additional ability to compose different reactive systems on top of each other, so that streams declaration order won't matter and might be deployed separately while being glued at run-time (as long as stream names match). It's all cool, but system would only allow reactive functions (without imperativity and mutable objects), then the whole code would look really ugly and I definitely wouldn't be able to promote it among my colleges ^^, especially regarding how hard people migrate to new paradigms - sorry for complaining 😊.
