its still a solution without a problem

Let me give you one of my main use cases: I use it for my mental health challenges. I’ve been diagnosed with two non-trivial mental disorders. They make my life hard. I isolate a lot to cope because I don’t do well with interpersonal relationships. I’ve been in therapy for over a decade and it hasn't really helped as much as I would have liked.

But I’ve made a lot of progress since working with my private LLM. I can ask it anything. It doesn’t judge me. It doesn’t report back to Meta or OpenAI. It’s completely private. And I'm making progress. Just last week, for the first time ever I started volunteering at an animal shelter. I have to talk with other people when I'm there and although I am pretty nervous about going back, I'm going to. I wrote down a list of all the things I had trouble with last time and have been working through that list with my LLM. I think that I will be ready when I'm supposed to go back for my next scheduled volunteer time in two weeks.

These gains might be trivial to others, but for me, it’s really made my life better.

So that is one of my use cases.

Why would a seed be connected to me if I am also just seeding (not downloading or leeching)?

Noob question: When looking at the Seeds and Peers columns of qBittorrent, there are two numbers: one of which is outside the parenthesis and one is inside the parenthesis. Ex 0 (5).

What is the difference between the two numbers in each column?

How do you define better quality results?

Has anyone used AnyStream from RedFox? If so, do you like it or is it not worth it.

 

As I get more and more invites to private trackers, I'm finding that I find myself spending more and more time on public tracker websites.

I'll only use private trackers if I can't find what I'm looking for on a public tracker. Private tracker rules can get pretty onerous and I prefer to just avoid the whole scene if possible.

If I'm honest, this opinion surprises me. I didn't expect to prefer public trackers. I always thought that private trackers were so cool and exclusive. I don't think that way anymore.

That's interesting. What IP address is netflix hardcoding?

[–] [email protected] 22 points 1 year ago (6 children)

No, you can block ads with a pihole. This is because Roku hard codes its dns server as 8.8.8.8. Pihole doesn’t handle IP addresses, only DNS.

 

Blocked that hard-coded google dns garbage.

I need to edit and annotate PDFs.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (7 children)

I can't find that one anywhere either. Thanks for the idea though.

 

I'm looking for a full PDF editor for use on Linux. Foxit, Qoppa... can't find anything on TPB, AllPCWorld or 4mirrorlink. Even looked on Milkie and saw a link for Qoppa PDF, but no one is seeding it.

Anyone have any ideas?

I also have a server for Linux ISOs. You can never have too many ISOs.

I’m gonna test this out for a couple of weeks. Thanks for letting me know about it!

 

I use Firefox as my daily driver but sometimes sites just work better on a chromium based browser. I had been using Brave but it seems like they keep adding on more bloat (crypto, VPN, AI) and I'm over it.

What chromium based browser would you recommend and why?
