Possibly from allowing sunlight into the building which heats the interior. Air conditioning must work extra hard to overcome the heat.

In the case of Denuvo, it is proven to drastically decrease performance for the sake of “security.”

Examples:
Hogwarts Legacy Denuvo vs Crack

Resident Evil 8 Village Denuvo vs Crack

If you get the crack from a reputable source, you can trust it will be safe. A low seed torrent from a shady place (like The Pirate Bay) is probably a virus. High seed torrent from another source like 1337x or something with more active moderation is generally safe.

If you want to be extra sure, spin up a VM and install the crack there and check it out before doing it on your real machine.

Prowlarr is better than Jackett, especially for setting up Sonarr and Radarr.

These bots and the people that post links every hour to related communities are what is going to kill lemmy.

you’re on the piracy community… what do you expect to see here?

Ah, maybe it’s started up again.

I prefer Prowlarr because the UI is just like Sonarr and Radarr and it can synchronize your indexers to Sonarr and Radarr

torrents-csv.ml is excellent. It’s a compiled database of other torrent sites that is pruned of unseeded torrents. It usually has what I need except for new releases, as they aren’t added immediately.

Side note: Jackett is nice but Prowlarr is better. Jackett development has stopped. Prowlarr is a little bit more feature rich and can automatically add indexers to Sonarr and Radarr.

Same - I’m very curious as to what it is and how it’s used.

I hate the jargon used in some of these app descriptions.

example: “Enhance workflow with integrated collaboration and intelligent software agents to automate your processes.”

WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU DO

I used these a bunch in some jungle training. Any petroleum based jellies worked great, so we used bacitracin packets as our additive.

Fun fact: dead bamboo will always be dry in the middle between two joints. You can split it up into a couple thin pieces and it makes great kindling.

Live bamboo will create a small pressure bomb.

Money isn’t too tight - I have a $250 Amazon credit right now to use on whatever.

I’d really prefer to upgrade the CPU because it’s already overclocked and still struggling. When I host a game like Space Engineers, I get massive lag spikes as it tries to keep up.

The CPU is just not enough for what I would like to do.

Yes, Plex transcoding is awful. Hardware transcodes aren’t possible on that build because I have nothing that supports it. The earliest QuickSync capable Intel chips are the 8000 series.

CPU and RAM are consistently >90%. It’s mostly qbittorrent doing that by caching files I’m seeding.

Game servers are mostly stable but Plex struggles if it’s transcoding (necessary due to video file types and who I’m streaming to).

Thanks, I’ll keep that in mind.

Just double checked and the 13400 is 65W just like the 5600x, which has no iGPU. I know AM4 and DDR4 would greatly reduce the cost of this upgrade but I’d like this to last as long as possible for me.

I’d really like to utilize Intel QuickSync. Anything not capable of that is a deal breaker for me.

A good VPN for torrenting would be AirVPN, as they offer port forwarding.

Check ipleak.net to see if there’s identifiable info coming through. Use their torrent check as well.

No, the host instance will not proliferate your input to other instances. Only your instance will have that and will only share it with other users from your instance.

e.g. I’m on Lemmy.world. I post on the Beehaw gaming community. Only other users from Lemmy.world will see my posts.

Federation can be a one way street. The problem with that is your comments and votes will only be visible from the instance you did it from. Lemmy.world will show other Lemmy.world users your comment but Beehaw will not ever see it, which means your comment will not proliferate to other instances either.

You can still browse content from an instance that has defederated yours but your actions will only be visible on your own instance.
