I went ahead and just deleted my entire pictrs cache and will definitely disable caching other servers images when it becomes available.

With most VPN providers you can use OpenVPN clients to connect to them. But if you are asking can i host an OpenVPN server for free and use it for piracy the answer is no. The entire point of a VPN is to conceal yourself and you are not accomplishing that if ypu are hosting it yourself. You need a VPN service.

I believe direct links are againt the rules but what you want is sportsurge. Its an aggregator of lots of links.

The SMS app from Simple tools is bad anyways. Group messaging is totally messed up. I threw in the towel when i responded to a group message and it sent an individual message to each person in the group.

I have a simple shell script that runs every night at 4am. It sets a size limit, then it deletes one episode at a time (starting with the oldest) until the directory size is under the limit. So a first in first out system. Scheduled it 3 years ago, and i just never run out of space ever.

Interesting. Are you pre-caching contents on the faster drives? How are you going about it?

Another reason I’m doing it is I know they will just shut it down soon anyways.

I mean, it’d not like it was their choice. I’m sure they would have loved to remain the place where everything was.

I’ll give it a look, thank you!

You dont want to disable defender completely. Add an exlcuded folder and put your downloads in that. Also exclude the folder it downloads to.

I do think that sums it up pretty well, and as other have said, the last season had a “I don’t want to do this anymore, lets wrap this up vibe” and to make matters worse, they completely abandoned so many plots that you thought had a point to them. To me it felt so obvious that during the fall of kings landing, Cersi should have flipped out and Jamie should have killed her. History repeating itself. Maybe that was just too predictable for them to actually do it, but all the character development up to that point was the perfect setup for it and they just dropped it altogether.

Also i should mention that I do torrent occasionaly and I leave it seeding for ages. So my torrent ratios are very healthy.

Yes im doing something similar but you should probably mask your home IP in some way using something like Cloudflare tunnels. Keep in mind the whole idea behind federation is you are advertising yourself to the fediverse.

Everyone there probably decided not to self-host because they can’t hide it behind their VPN lol

I primarily use Usenet, so no seeding.

I download the biggest files i can get. Im going to delete it when I’m done with it anyways, who cares about the space.

I do something similar, then fail2ban immediately bans the ip for a few hours. The only people going to my root domain are people i do not want sniffing around. It also does the same if you dont pass in my domain at all (and are just hitting random ips).

Namecheap is what I use ya. They are also really great if you have some internal services and want just a cheap domain to get SSL certs from LetEncrypt. All my internal traffic is SSL now because why not, its 85 cents a year. And no dealing with self-signed certs.

I agree im already on a self-hosted Matrix instance, my wife and I use it exclusively to communicate. I’m ready and waiting!
