  • Its pretty weird, being specifically bound to tun0 and still having your IP show after disconnecting, makes it seem like there is something else running tun0 like openVPN or Wireguard without a kill switch enabled and they're just not connected to a VPN, if you've ever used them?

    You could probably test this if you exit qbittorrent completely and disconnect from your VPN then open qbittorrent again and connect to another network interface in qbittorrent like wlan0 and save it. Then reopen that setting and see if tun0 is still an option. I don't think it should show up, if it does something is keeping tun0 active.

    Either way, I would suggest uninstalling ProtonVPN v3 and v4 and reinstalling v4, maybe something is getting mixed up with v3 and v4 files?

    https://protonvpn.com/support/official-linux-vpn-fedora/

    https://protonvpn.com/support/official-ubuntu-vpn-setup/

    Under the notes section they specifically show how to uninstall v3 so that might help too.

  • I'm almost certain when using the official proton VPN app that proton creates a "proton0" network interface, or something similar, instead of using tun0. So you would have to bind to that interface instead of tun0.

    I can't remember for definite, its been so long since I used the official app.

    I'm not sure it explains your problem though since you're bound to tun0 anyway.

  • Does windows give you just under 100C when you're just browsing the web or watching videos??

    If so then your thermal set up is not working properly. You should check to make sure you've got thermal paste on your CPU and the cooler is mounted properly and making good contact. Also some people may accidentally leave the clear plastic sticker on the cooler where it makes contact with the CPU.

    I've never water cooled so I can't give advice there.

    The 8700k is rated for a max temperature of 100C so it shouldn't really be anywhere near that at idle. https://ark.intel.com/content/www/us/en/ark/products/126684/intel-core-i7-8700k-processor-12m-cache-up-to-4-70-ghz.html

    For context my 7900x is at about 40C at idle and I don't think I've seen it go over 75C under load.

    CPUs thermal throttle as they reach their maximum rated tempuratures which would explain why everything is running slower.

  • The service could not appeal because a Swiss law had actually been broken and because "legal tools for serious crimes" were used.

    Yep under Swiss law he was a criminal, we may not agree with the law but unfortunately that's the case here

  • For jc141 and LinuxRulez it really is just 2 clicks once you have the dependencies installed. Your distro will already have most stuff installed but if you follow along with the jc141 setup they basically cover nearly every option that someone might need to get their repacks to just work.

    I just checked and it took 16 clicks within Lutris to install a Fitgirl repack, not counting the Fitgirl install setup part.

    I'd personally much prefer to do that than to have to deal with Windows and Microsoft but thats just because I care more about online privacy and can't stand monopolies more than the average person.

    To make it even easier, instead of using Lutris you could just install them as non Steam games in Steam, again I probably would just use Steam to install them if I didn't care about privacy and stuff.

    I don't see these things as a linux issue but more so as a monopoly issue. Microsoft has gone decades doing everything they can to ensure Windows is what people think of when they think of computers and its worked.

  • I think I remember one of them saying its because some games can be decompressed "on the fly" with DwarFS. So their mindset is the user doesn't have 2 copies of the game, compressed and decompressed, which saves space but also increases the chance that the user will continue to seed the files. Instead of someone downloading the archive, decompressing it and deleting the archive and just keeping the game files which can't be seeded.

  • Jc141 on 1337x and LinuxRulez on torrminatorr have repacks specifically meant to work on linux. You just have to run their bash scripts and it auto decompresses the files and sets everything up for you. Make sure to follow jc141 setup guide on github to make sure you have all the dependencies installed. https://github.com/jc141x/jc141-bash/blob/master/setup/readme.md

    For Fitgirl and Dodi repacks, Lutris is probably the easiest. I usually setup my folders similar to jc141. GameName with 2 subfolders called game and prefix. The game folder is my working directory and my prefix folder is my prefix directory. This allows me to have different wine prefixes for each game in case some games have extra dependencies that mess with other games. I point Lutris to the installer exe and run the install then afterwards I switch it to the game exe. I usually use WineGE instead of the default Lutris option for the prefixes.

    For KaOsKrew, I use a windows VM with QEMU to unpack and use sftp to transfer the files because I haven't had any luck with getting their installer to work. I do the same with Fitgirl and Dodi repacks that have unarc errors during decompression. Then its just setting up with Lutris as normal.

    You can also add non Steam games to Steam and make them use proton, I've only had to do this once with RE0, I couldn't get it to run any other way.

    r/linuxcracksupport might be helpful and I think they have a matrix chat too.

  • Lemuroid https://github.com/Swordfish90/Lemuroid is by far my favourite console emulator on android and its free and open source. Its got quick saves and fast forwarding which is great for Pokemon. It also supports zipped ROMs so no need to unzip anything and it has worked with any ROM hack I've tried.

    I mainly use it for GB, NDS and 3DS since I usually only play on my phone when I have some time to kill when I'm travelling, but it supports so many other consoles too.

  • https://github.com/zotify-dev/zotify its python not bash but may be helpful, also it downloads the files from Spotify instead of YouTube.

    I know it checks the playlist folder to see if its already downloaded each song but I'm not sure if it checks other folders too, but it should be easy enough to edit yourself to make it do that.

  • ProtonMail also guaranteed that "by default" it would not store any IP addresses that could be linked to users' email accounts.

    They don't store IP addresses by default but when required to by law, they don't have a choice just like any other company would.

    Bad OPSEC by the activist, Protons hands were tied

  • You could try using something like https://github.com/apk-editor/APK-Explorer-Editor to see what info you can find out about these apps.

    TPMS seems to be for tyre pressure, your phone could have the same system apps as android devices with Android Automotive OS. But I don't like that it has accessed the internet and sent/received data. I would suggest disabling internet access for it or at least disable background data usage for it

  • The issue with this is the difference between GB (1,000,000,000 bytes) and GiB (1,073,741,824 bytes) https://massive.io/file-transfer/gb-vs-gib-whats-the-difference/

    HDD manufacturers use GB, which is a metric measurement, because its better for marketing while computers use GiB, which is a binary measurement. So people think they're buying 15GiB but in reality they're buying 13.5GiB marketed as 15GB

  • Looks good! I can't see any height or compatibility issues.

    I would suggest updating the BIOS of your motherboard to at least version 1.21, there is an issue with Over Current Protection on AM5 motherboards when EXPO is enabled that can cause the CPU (especially X3D) to die.

    GamersNexus has a few videos on it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kiTngvvD5dI&t=0

    Invidious alternative yewtu.be/watch?v=kiTngvvD5dI&t=0

    From their website for version 1.21 "Recommend for upgrade BIOS if 7000X3D processor is installed."

    Happy building!
