SweetMylk, rok temu w Thinking of getting a retro gaming machine.

“Emulators & ROMs” part of megathread. Think it’s not worth to buy something for the roms when you can donwload them. Why not get something modern like a steamdeck or ayaneo for a true handheld experience?

Haui, rok temu

Thank you! I will check it out.

The main reason is because I dont have 400 bucks (much less 1000) to burn on something nice to have atm. I could absolutely use one of my two beefy computers if need be but I figured I‘d ask what other people do.

SweetMylk, rok temu

If you an android phone you can use that too with a cheap bluetooth controller.

Haui, rok temu

Sadly I dont but thank you very much got your suggestion!

Carefully.

MrRazamataz, rok temu w Are SolidTorrents.to and Bitsearch.to down?

Are you using a VPN? Your ISP may be blocking them.

spiritedpause, rok temu

I’m in the US, and as far as I know, ISPs only block websites if the federal government mandates it, in which case all ISPs would have to block it.

ArcaneSlime, rok temu

Not necessarily, they can block stuff if they want and some don’t like torrenting. Typically they just limit your speeds and send ineffective letters rather than block the site though, so it would still be weird.

Make sure your mullvad config is called wg0.conf in ./config.

FrostyCaveman, rok temu

I do this except with github.com/qdm12/gluetun

(which apparently also can be used as a k8s sidecar container, am gonna try this soon as well)

christophski, rok temu

I’m trying this and it seems to be running. If I run curl 127.0.0.1:9091 I get a 403 which is expected but if I try to access the same from another computer on the network then the connection times out, any idea what could be the cause?

I use UFW

Oisteink, rok temu w How to route transmission through Mullvad?

You might want your program and the vpn interface to be in a separate namespace? Somewhat opposite this: www.wireguard.com/netns/#the-new-namespace-soluti…

You don’t want all traffic routed, you want only this one app. More info here: linuxhint.com/use-linux-network-namespace/

Moonrise2473, rok temu w How to route transmission through Mullvad?

i use this github.com/haugene/docker-transmission-openvpn

newIdentity, rok temu

Mullvad is using WireGuard though

jws_shadotak, rok temu w How to route transmission through Mullvad?

I highly recommend moving that to a docker or podman setup. Gluetun is the go-to for VPN traffic. Set up a little container and you can link other containers to it to route all their traffic through.

GregoryTheGreat, rok temu

The best way I’ve found.

ColdWater, rok temu w How to get into private trackers

That’s the best part, you can’t

IDeserveToBeLoved, rok temu

You absolutely can. A good portion of popular trackers have periodicall open signup events. Torrentleech has fairly often open signups. It’s big so it isn’t that easy to build up your ratio when you’re a drop in an ocean, but when you do it can open doors for some more prestigious trackers, although TL should be enough in 99% of cases if you aren’t into some (less popular) niche content. Watch r/opensignups on reddit if it’s still alive and soon enough you’ll be on too many trackers.

notepass, rok temu

I think /r/opensignups closed after the blackout

toxictenement, rok temu

Theres r/trackersignups and the telegram channel r/opensignups migrated to of the same name.

notepass, rok temu

Thanks for the info!
I just checked trackersignups and found something spicy :)

It seems like r/opensignups telegram channel is just a bot posting the contents of /r/opensignups to it. So it is dead as well.

toxictenement, rok temu

Try searching it on telegram for the one with the deluge icon.

ipkpjersi, rok temu w How to get into private trackers

Trackers with open sign-ups are a good place to get started, also trackers with application forms are good for starting out too. If you have friends who are into private trackers and they know you are trustworthy and they have invites, that’s another way.

Purdue University still has a campus-only file sharing network called DTella that’s DC++. It been getting smaller, but there were a few members that shared 50+ TB at one point.
