issues with QbitTorrent stalled torrents
I am just getting back my sea legs, but apparently they’re pretty shaky because I can’t get my ubuntu torrent (no seriously, it is) to download. It never starts downloading and is stuck in “stalled”. I’ve tried a number of things, but even with default settings it isn’t starting. I’m using proton VPN on Linux Mint,...

Unable to run Hi-Fi RUSH through Proton
I bought a Steam key for the game Hi-Fi RUSH from Fanatical today after reading numerous reviews and reports from proton.db, only to find that the game just does not launch.

What did you think of Sea of Stars?
I thought that it was overall good fun. The battle system is excellent and the music is great. The characters are cool and generally quite enjoyable.
