Suggestions for locations to hang them up?

Thanks for the info, definitely motivated to learn and try Docker more now.

Definitely will look into Docker more, I've heard of it but hadn't gotten around to giving it a shot before. Gluetun is not something I've heard of though. Sounds like a good setup for what I want. Any suggestions on getting started with Docker?

Can't say I'm familiar with media servers exactly - do you mean Jellyfin, Plex, etc. or something more like adding Arr services. Didn't know speeds could be improved either

Yep I was going to fire up a streaming site while torrenting last night, oxymoronic I know, and realized that Netflix or whatever would likely misbehave because of the VPN. Thanks for the other VPN suggestions

I guess I could've made that part a DDG search :) Thank you for the reminder, it does sound like exactly what I wanted on a little more research.

Definitely awesome, bookmarked for future use.

Split tunnels sounds familiar and like what I want.

I plan to switch to mullvad in the future, figure for low stakes stuff I can use up the rest of PIA for now. Thanks for the heads up though

 

I've been struggling to get ratios over even 1.0, most are stuck in the low 0.10 - 0.20 range. I don't seed off my gaming PC 24/7 because I don't want a VPN on all the time, plus I turn it off at night.

So mainly wondering if anyone has tips on a good setup to keep the PC seeding overnight, I'm running linux mint currently. I also have a RaspPi but I understand they are not great for torrents?

Is there any good way to compartmentalize a VPN? I.e., use the VPN for qBitTorrent only, and use my regular network adapter for other stuff (games, browsers, whatever).

I've tried a seedbox in the past and they're neat, but I'd rather avoid a subscription and just use my hardware. I'm using Private Internet Access VPN until my already paid for time is up in case that's significant.

 

I wanted a simple way to make a fun background for my desktop, and I found it! I used the pattern generator and highly recommend messing with it and the gradient maker. Please check it out just for the UI, it's awesome. I attached the hexagon background I made.

Unfortunately not :( thanks though.

 

Just bought an "enhanced eBook", accessible only through Yuzu (Barnes and Noble's site) and I would love to rip it to PDF and get it on libgen. Does anyone have any advice or tutorial for this?

I don't have much experience with writing scripts but I understand I could use python to screenshot and append all 800+ pages as well. Looking for how to do this if it's what I have to do.

Thanks, and happy to provide more relevant info if needed!
