I wish I had even half the braincells required to understand the installation for this.

Does Spectacle work well with Wayland?

It was honestly the one thing I still have never found a feature parity Linux alt for after years; it will always bug me no matter what other “it’s basically the same” suggested player I use instead.

That said, currently I’m making do with Quodlibet, and I have no major complaints. But nothing is an exact replica enough for me not to constantly compare it to Wimamp & complain.

Not a serious suggestion, but I can confirm that WACUP does at least have no noticeable issues using WINE

Same speed, except they’re gouging me for $90 a month over here.

You are also not indicative an entire category of potential new users. You are also clearly not the majority who I am referring to, no need to take it personally.

Right, but the fact of the matter is you can do most things on any distro, it’s very rare that any one distros is “really for” anything specific. They’re not all that different to one another at the end of the day, and to a new user potentially paralyzed by choice this site doesn’t really help either.

Sometimes it’s much easier to say “here’s 3 that offer the most stable new experience, try them out.” And afterwards if you get really tech savvy then go down the niche distro-hopping rabbit hole.

More distros is certainly a good thing, but most new linux users don’t even know what they’re looking for or would even get to the technical depth where the difference between any two distros would actually matter to their daily use. Even more so with the current migration of gamers onto Linux.

A little more nuanced than that, at the bottom of the article it says:

According to a 2014 Gigaom interview with Paul Kane, then chairman of the Internet Computer Bureau, the domain name registry is required to give some of its profits to the British government, for administration of the British Indian Ocean Territory.[23] After being questioned as a result of the interview, the British Government denied receiving any funds from the sale of .io domain names, and argued that consequently, the profits could not be shared with the Chagossians, the former inhabitants forcibly removed by the British government.[24] Kane, however, contradicted the government’s denial.[25][26]

I assume some instance’s don’t have a front-end with URL previewing, but I can see it on my instance’s alternate front-end (Alexandrite), and also on dbzer0’s default layout.

I love that even the URL preview shows an IP address lol.

The site just grabs the viewers current IP I imagine it’s probably whatever address is used by the instance to parse the URL and generate the preview, since it’s different if I view it on my instance, vs if I view it on the original post on dbzer0

Just fun to notice I guess.

I will never let myself live down the stupidity and shame of falling for their bullshit not once, but twice. I’m ~$150 poorer thanks to my impressionable college-brain thinking their “complete in a few years” line back in 2014 was even remotely possible.

If that is indeed the case you should report this issue with as much detail as possible to the Proton team, because it seems like qBit is behaving propperly and there’s some portion of Proton virtual adapter that is failing here.

I use Proton Vpn as well, but I have a custom wireguard interface & server switching script via their API that doesn’t run into the same issue you’re describing. So the issue must lie somewhere in the Linux GUI app.

Do you get the same issue if you try using an openvpn or wireguard config generated from logging into the proton vpn website? or maybe just from the CLI version of the app?

Are you misreading the webpage?

What you’re describing seems like intended behavior. Other than what someone else here noted about using the proton0 adapter rather than tun0, you should not have to do anything other than bind qBittorrent to your VPN’s adapter to stop leaking any and all IP information to the peer swarm.

When you use ipleak.net, you will see your current IP address at the top. This has nothing to do with qbittorrent. Farther down, you need to add the “Torrent Address detection” magnet link to qBittorrent, then that sectoin of the page will show what IP address is being broadcast by qBittorrent (which should match the IP shown at the top of the page when your VPJN adapter is present and active.)

If you have qBit bound to an adapter that is no longer present, you should see both the Speed chart on qBit drop to zero and the page’s Torrent Address section will stop updating since it will no longer be receiving any new traffic.

I’m all for this post, but I feel like someone needs to ask: What features from Youtube am I losing out on by using these alternate front-ends? (instead of just continuing the cat-and-mouse game between uBlock Origin and Google while at leat preserving the same features and UI that we’re already very mu ch comfortable with)

massive props to VH, it’s an awesome modpack, though getting started can be brutal depending on how lucky you are with your seed.

I believe they’ve (Google) been somewhat successful in convincing carriers / 3rd party OS devs like Samsung to start implementing RCS in their own messaging apps. There’s even a 3rd party app on iOS that can use it now.

Check out the XDA Forums section for your carrier’s version of whatever model of phone you have. Not all carriers make it trivial (or even possible) to unlock the bootloader and flash custom recovery images, but if it’s possible then someone there has certainly done it.

RCS is our last hope…

No, in so far as its a valid community to link to considering this is beehaw (not federated with a few large instances) and it’s 100% relevant to the thread they posted it in.

I mean it’s quite literally not, but whether it’s tasteful to link to a different community is up to personal choice I guess.
