  • I could play almost any modern title with my PC and I’ve tried. I tried remakes of the games I used to like, I’ve tried modern takes on retro games… and I’ve come to accept that what I love are button-mashers :-)

    I will play Metal Slug for hours. Any of the overhead shooters from Battle of Midway or almost any of the SciFi side scrolling shooters.

    So my advice is try something different. Dig around in old coin-op titles, there are literally thousands and you can download all of them in one torrent.

    Skip the AAA+ titles and play something dumb :-)



  • A: Find the back of your computer. Locate and remove the ethernet cable.

    This solution is hardware based (so nothing Mozella does to try and pay its staff will have any effect). Completely open source, so you and others can easily observe how it functions and potentially implement improvements. 100% effective at achieving your stated goal (provided you don’t have WiFi). And lastly: Has the added benefit of protecting you from any security risks introduced by running a 5 year old web browser.

    So… and this is probably debatable, the point of a dedicated seed box is that there are a metric-shitton of other seed boxes on the local network (at the datacenter).

    I’d argue the point of self hosting is to be able to set it up however you please. It sounds like you know what to do to be safe.

    I use Mulvad for general VPN duty, though I can’t personally speak to its torrent support/speed I do see many recommend it in combination with a wireguard supporting container image. Spin a few up and let us know which ones you like and why.
