Need help with anyone who's experienced with Libretorrent

So I have to seed a torrent for up to 10 days. Doesn’t sound that big of a deal right? Just leave it running in the background. Here’s the problem. Despite me turning off battery optimization on my phone and turning Libretorrent’s battery usage to unrestricted it will still for some reason stop seeding in the middle of the...

Why shouldn't electric plugs screw in?

I just watched a TikTok about how people used to plug in things to their light sockets when electricity was first becoming popular. And they kept calling the plug a light socket, what rule says it’s not a plug that screws in? And why shouldn’t plugs screw in? We have material science to make plugs and cables hard enough that...

I tried playing the two original Baldur's Gate games on Ubuntu. It's hell.

Long story short: I am absolutely inexperienced with Linux distros but made the switch from Windows a bit more than a year ago. Right now, everyone’s talking about Baldur’s Gate 3, including a lot of the podcasts and shows I follow: since I never experienced the OG games, I wanted to try them out. They were on sale on GOG,...
