Tracker recommendations

I’m pretty new to the scene and am trying to build up a content library for a jellyfin instance I’m running. I know a lot of the higher quality torrents are on private trackers so im intested in joining one but the ones ive found seem pretty closed. Even the ones with open sign-ups seen to want proof of my reputation with...

What's the real world connection speed from your residential IP to your Server?

I’m using contabo and the VPS I got is advertised as 1 Gigabit. When I do a speedtest or use iperf3 to connect to public servers I get pretty close to 1 Gigabit. But from my residential IP the speed drops down to 100-250 Mbit/s. My home internet connection can handle 500 Mbit just fine....

What are Some Good, Recent, and Available Dumb Cars?

I have a 2010 Toyota Corolla. She’s been my trusty steed for the last 14 years and is in good working order. I recognize she won’t last forever, and if, god forbid (mostly for her) I get in an accident, I will need to get a new car. So what dumb cars do you drive, and what would you replace them with?

[Solved - Firefox extension SingleFile converts the page to a .html file that can be accessed without login!] Any tricks to saving chapters in a digital, online-based textbook as a PDF?

Print-to-PDF is locked down. There’s a print option as part of the software, but it slaps my student email diagonally across every single page, which makes reading it kind of obnoxious....

Cannot Access Win11 Shared Folder on Android

The folders are accessible on every other device and SMB is enabled on the host machine. I’m trying to access hundreds of gigabytes of game roms via Retroarch when I’m out of the country so I’d appreciate an easier method if one exists, but I’ve ran through every troubleshooting guide I can find online, but the share...

Death Stranding UI is fucking horriffic.

I’m about 8 hours into Death Stranding Director’s Cut, and I just can’t do this. I love the meditative, lonely feel of the gameplay, and I’m always down for a bonkers and absurd Kojima story. I truly hope future games implement a similar traversal system where you really need to watch your footing. But this game is...

Is there a way to stop gnome from using dGPU?

Been running endeavor OS on my MSI delta 15 (all AMD with no nvidia card) with KDE and it switches between integrated and dgpu like it should. However after installing gnome and using it for a bit I noticed that it was always having the dgpu idling. This basically cuts my battery life in half, and making it less than desirable....

Can you tell excel sheets which were created using a pirated version of MS Office?

My friend works for a company which requires her to use Microsoft specific application, she didn’t really want to switch to Win 11 and choose to just use Wine Linux package and install a 2016 version of MS office on her Linux laptop. That’s all well and good, but this company she is working for servers other clients at...

Switching back to Android (GrapheneOS), anything cool I've been missing out on?

Long story short: I don’t like iOS but have been using an iPhone for a couple years due to lack of personally viable hardware options on the Android side of things. I’ve gotten tired of waiting and found a good deal on an open box Pixel 8 Pro which arrives in a few days, I’ll be installing GrapheneOS on it....

Help, I have a path variable issue!

I’ve set some path variables on my Raspberry Pi, but since I upgraded the D compiler version, I need to change it, by removing the reference to the old version, as the two would collide with each other. The issue is, I used some now obscure tutorial, which I no longer can find, and it’s not found in the usual culprit...

Intermittent Video & Freezing

My neighbor was having issues with his PC freezing up during games, saying his CPU fan specifically) would ramp up. He then bought new parts and asked me to build him a new PC to replace it which I did (we exchange handiwork). Now he’s wanting to give his old parts to a friend of his who had an even older PC. So I’ve got...

What is the word for someone who is friends with different groups but doesn't have loyalty to any one group?

The closest word I can think of is a sycophant but that’s too strong word and not exactly what I’m looking for. The word I’m thinking of has negative connotations and it’s for someone who is friends with different groups but only at a superficial level and isn’t necessarily honest about who all they’re friends with....

How easy is deepfake now? I just watched a show and I want to change the actor to an old timey one. NOT PORN. Just a cool show I think would be suited to this actor and I can't get it out of my head.

For the few who want to know the show and the actor, it’s “Monsieur Spade,” an AMC produced take on Sam Spade post-America, retired and living in France. I think it’s really well done, and Clive Owen does a great job of playing San Spade but…I REALLY want to replace his face and voice with Bogart’s....

Media sharing and collaborative curation software?

I’m looking for an open-source program compatible with Linux that facilitates media sharing and collaborative curation among users. The ideal software would enable sharing any media content while allowing multiple users to collectively organize and manage the content. I would still like to hear about any similar software, even...
