Regarding spoilers; Please put "(Spoilers)" in the title of your post if you anticipate spoilers, as we do not currently have a spoiler tag available. If your post contains an image that could be considered a spoiler, please mark the thread as NSFW so the image gets blurred. As far as how long to wait until the post is no longer a spoiler, please just use your best judgement. Everyone has a different idea on this, so we don't want to make any hard limits.
Please use spoiler tags whenever commenting a spoiler in a non-spoiler thread. Most of the Lemmy clients don't support this but we want to get into the habit as clients will be supporting in the future.
Failure to follow these guidelines will result in your post/comment being removed and/or more severe actions. All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.

My housemate grumbles about getting rid of her DVD collection from time to time. I told her that she's not allowed to get rid of her Dogma DVD. I even watch it once in a while.
USB DVD readers are pretty cheap and backing up a DVD movie to a file (either just the movie as mp4/whatever or the whole disc with menus, special content and all that jazz as an ISO) is trivial. DVDs themselves are fragile circles of plastic that store data a micron-thin foil layer that can be hurt by too spicy a laser pointer. Do yourself and your roommate a favor and make a copy of that thing for posterity's sake.
100% agree. I backed up my Dogma DVD (as well as the rest of my DVD/Blu-ray collection) and now I enjoy them streaming through my Plex server.
What a coincidence? I backed up your DVDs to my Plex too!
That’s so funny, because I was just wondering where you got your copy of Dogma that I backed up to my Plex server!
