  • You've had a good answer by letstakealook, but just to expand on one point, you need to leave your torrent application (qbittorrent or whatever) running in the background for an extended period. If you close the app and don't load it again after you've got the download then you're not seeding - seeding means to share it to others after you've finished downloading

  • You can seed without port forwarding, it just means the other side needs to have it.

    Just keep your torrent client running and people will connect

  • Nice, glad it worked for you

  • I got them off 1337x.to back about a year ago, but as I just found out when I went and searched they no longer have it indexed (presumably too long at 0)

    I tried to DM the magnet link to someone who DM'd but for some reason that didn't work. Happy to share the links if that is useful

  • this is what's in the stuff I'm trying to chase down - video footage, early singles that sort of thing (hopefully the pic works)

    Yeah that didnt work, maybe this link

    EDIT

    I'm an idiot those are most of the albums/EPs and I don't have "for the ladies" and "rollercoaster" thank you

  • Cheers. That's their song with someone else's video, I'll grab it and stick it in the "adaptions" folder

  • Fair enough - racks in entirety/untouched dramatically reduces the risk of not being able to get stuff back up because of miscabling or missed cabling. I could see that approach being sensible if you're moving across town.

    I personally wouldnt if moving between cities, YMMV of course.

  • MP3 is fine thank you

    I already have the well known albums (On Ice, Paging Mr Strike, Bring it on, Second Page for Mr Strike)

  • Really appreciate the response, thank you. I do actually have those 3 albums (bought the CDs), I'm more chasing the rarer stuff. But that link will get added and seeded now

  • I've been in charge of relocating several data centres.

    We tore everything down, servers out of racks etc.

    All servers, fabric switches drive arrays etc were individually wrapped in bubble wrap then the heavy removalists cloth then into the large metal moving boxes (1500mmx1500mmx1500mm roughly) before being stacked so they couldn't move around, followed by ratchet straps securing groups of kit together.

    All this was done by professional removalists - no reason you can't do it though.

    Basically the principle is flexible padding (bubble wrap) to allow for movement close to the device without impacting it, heavy shock absorbing material (the felt), then put into a robust container (metal box) so limiting impact risk.

    I'd strongly recommend NOT to leave them in the rack - a couple of screws vibrate loose and then that device drops onto the one below it, bounces up and down through the journey and wrecks them both.

    If it's a mile up the road, sure, you'll probably be fine and get away with it, multiple hours on the road ? It's not surviving it.

  • I wonder what his definition of Transshipping would be

    I think that's when a fishing boat puts on some guns and radar and starts calling itself a battleship ?

  • 2 of those def do port forwarding (airvpn & proton) dunno about the other 2

  • Deleted

    Permanently Deleted

  • That's a shame, I rather like bauh

  • It works ? I mean what necessary functionality is it missing ? Magnet link goes in, files come out, happy face.

  • Generally most people get recommended to start their Linux journey with Mint as it is noob friendly (while still having full functionality) other options to consider would be popOS Ubuntu & Fedora.

    qBittorrent is the most recommended I've seen, although I use transmission.

  • Given the TOR part is kinda the point of tails you may wish to expand on what exactly a "tails like live os without tor" looks like.

    The standard Mint iso will boot into a live session with no persistence, click on network icon to join tge wifi and away you go. You can setup a script to install stuff that isnt on the stock build (pretty sure firefox is there but a vpn config for example).

    Without a use case description that sounds like what you're asking for.

    I'm sure the other distros that offer live usbs will be the same.

  • A billion has to be enough for them to notice it you'd hope ! They also got a €251m and a €91m fine (in 2018 & 2021 iirc on the dates)
