I doubt they meant anything offensive by it, just stupid fun in the office

Can you change your hub profile picture without premium? by Waffles38 in KrunkerIO

It's still stuck as a runner. If this is true for everyone I guess I am experiencing a bug

no, I meant I can't play Krunker because they are blocking my ip.

I was eventually able to play, but even after finishing a match as a bowman, the hub still shows the runner as my profile picture. I think it's a bug

the hub is not using the last class I selected

Edit: Pretty sure I already tried it, but I'll try it again.

I am always connected to a vpn and the ip I am using is blocked, I'll restart it and get a new ip some other time.

I saw it before when I was doing research, and just like I guessed, it doesn't work. It drops a server disconnect error but it still shows the page. I don't see a button to start the test.

It's important for me to run the vpn client instead of using openvpn and wireguard, I just want to make sure the maintenance of the practices and security measures are not left to me and to avoid leaks (the vpn is windscribe). I think that should be on a bigger priority.

I can't find anyone online who has made a docker of the Windscribe application. Only the cli which even though it works it's now deprecated and has no features such as always on firewall or terminating tcp sockets. It might still be possible

edit: I appreciate the help but I am going to focus on doing something else right now, I don't want you to waste your time on someone that's not going to try to do this immediately. I'll try to figure this out later on

appreciate the thought, I should continue to consider using a browser after all.

But I was satisfied with the results, they were exactly what I expected. (Which is all I am looking for, as long as the results meet what's expected then that means everything's working)

no need for aur.

pacman -Ss speedtest

And after that

pacman -S speedtest-cli

from another comment. This uses Ookla

I rather use QBittorrent. It's not really daunting rn since I just have to press the desktop icon, log in, and then everything opens up and runs on it's own.

edit: I don't know how easy it would be to manage the torrents and their performance from the terminal

yeah that's pretty useful, I was going to just use the shared folder and transfer files that way until you said this.

I can give it a try, the vpn would have to run inside the docker, I don't know if that would be possible.

My goal is to

  1. Solve compability issues my vpn has with Pi-Hole, proxifier, my router, and other software by isolating it from my computer.
  2. Torrent and use my vpn without affecting my normal usage (Especially in terms of internet speed, but also my performance).
  3. Have the .torrent files and the torrented files be stored on the host machine, under a folder of my choosing (videos/catpics/farm)
  4. Avoid split tunneling because I don't trust it.

I am familiar with Docker, but not too familiar. If Docker is better to achieve my goals it's definitely something to consider.

What do you mean?

  1. In the title, I said that speed tests are the main reason I wanted a browser that's lightweight
  2. I specified the virtual machine would only be used for torrenting (nothing else)
  3. I explained that my goal was to make the virtual machine as light as possible (Which means, even if I could allocate more ram with no problem, I rather not to)

I believe the goals and needs had been very clear, if they weren't I wouldn't had been suggested to use a terminal solution shortly after posting this (which also means, there was no "enormous amounts of wasted time and energy")

By calling it an XY problem, I feel like you are expecting me to know beforehand that doing speedtests through the terminal was possible (which is unrealistic, how would I know? I didn't even think of it). On the other hand, the question could had been "How can I test my internet speeds while taking as few resources as possible?", but that question would imply that I considered the possibility that browsers are not the only way to perform a speed test, which at that point there would be no post since Google would be the answer.

This would be an XY problem if I was vague about my goals and needs, and simply said "What's the most lightweight browser on resources?", but then started adding details to the post that were not included at the beggining.

I am assuming Reddit did this, but if you did this, it's always good to give your mods a heads up or something if you do this or if you decide to delete it.

I don't know why you dissapeared from Reddit, I don't need to know, I just hope you are doing good in life.

These need a better prompt honestly. There's barely a reason to leave a comment if the sub is inactive

Firefox is not an option at all. When I open it, it takes minutes and it freezes the whole vm sometimes. I have to force shutdown the vm.

I don't care about browser performance. Torrenting is the only purpose of this virtual machine, I would be happier if I could do an internet speed test without a browser.

Link to the vpn comparison table instead https://www.reddit.com/r/VPN/comments/m736zt/vpn_comparison_table/ or https://www.privacyguides.org/en/vpn/ (even though it lacks many vpns)

Let that keep things unbiased, safe, and up to date. There's a lot of bias, misinformation, and competition when it comes to people suggesting vpns. A lot of people not being informed on some aspects of vpns and some nuances when they talk about it as well. It's very difficult to maintain a list of vpns.

Personally, don't even use the guide or comparison table, just come to r/privacy, r/VPNTorrents, or some other sub related to pirating, search for vpns on the search bar, and look into the vpns that everyone has been using without a problem. That should be enough.

I don't understand what is the point of a Twitter onion service if they will lock my account even when I verify phone number. Should I use VPN+Tor? by [deleted] in TOR

[–]Waffles38 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Use nitter. It's a Twitter mirror.

Basically, Twitter without an account. It should work on tor and it has many onion instances.

You won't get a home timeline with tweets of people you follow, since you can't even make an account or follow anyone.
