Or hope that GoG finally created their Linux client, although it has only be requested by a quiet minority of literally every single suggestion on their community wishlist.
For the love of the gods CDPR, please, finally realize that Linux users are you main customer base.
I just don’t care about any of that at all. I have around 100TB of seeding accumulated over the years, no VPN, zero security measures, nothing ever happened at all.
Given that it’s Hetzner, there’s not much you can do besides telling them “oops sorry didn’t know this was illegal” and proceed using a VPN on your seedbox, go private tracker or just use a different hoster. Hetzner isn’t a big fan of torrenting since they have the (german) feds in their neck.
If you’re a power user, I’d actually recommend installing Arch Linux. It will take a while, and definitely much longer then just pressing “install” on a fancy UI, but the advantages it brings are priceless.
Generally, you’ll have to build the OS yourself, but you get a manual doing most of the job if you simply follow it, kinda like Lego. Given that you ultimately build it all yourself, you know how things work if anything might break. You also know how to adjust things if you wish to change something. And for everything you want to do, there’s an up-to-date manual in the arch wiki.
On top of that, the distro is running the newest software, which means that almost everything is compatible and runs in the best possible way. It will be tested 2-3 weeks in advance in order to ensure it won’t break your system immediately. But even if it does, guess what, there’s a manual on how to fix your system.
In case you’re overwhelmed at any point, there’s a great community. Not sure if they managed to move to lemmy, but they’re definitely over on reddit.
Good luck :)
If you want to support the creator, spread the word. Paying for things will generally just fill the purses of some rich ass media company execs who sit around all day masturbating on their third yacht.
By spreading the word, the creator is suddenly known for “having created this media that everyone knows”, landing them better deals with media corporations.
This concept applies to pretty much all media in all forms.
I think I just figured it out, hang on with me.
It’d be the tech literate person in the family. The nephew that’s working as a programmer or something like that. Now, if that nephew has some interest in stealing their uncles money, they now have access to their bank account through a freely rooted phone.
This gives them a lot of options, which I don’t have to explain.
Given that a lot of scams actually happen between presumed family and friends…
Yeah I kinda get why banks are doing this
