Flynn_Mandrake,

Looks like you weren’t the only person to believe the 1994 version to be the better one

Flynn_Mandrake,

A good start would be to check the website and go from there. I don’t know of a good, singular guide unfortunately—there are a couple different ways of going about torrenting on I2P.

I can confirm that torrenting on I2P works quite well! You may have to set aside a couple weeks per movie, though. Still, the torrent selection is decent, if not quite as good as what you would get on the clearnet. You’ll want to check the postman tracker (tracker2.postman.i2p) once you have everything set up.

Flynn_Mandrake,

Stormy is an understatement. Last I checked, I was sitting at 4% - though it bears noting that I’m running my I2P router on a Pi, so I2PD is a bit out of date for me

You are going to be trapped in a room for 12 hours with a mid 2000s office desktop with no internet connection and an external hard drive; what are you putting on the hard drive?

I’ve got some DOOM WADs I have been meaning to play so I would probably grab Trench Foot, Total Chaos, and the sequel to Ashes 2063, Ashes: Afterglow with a portable install of GZDoom to play them....

Flynn_Mandrake,

Copious amount of ebooks or web novel downloads, as well as my lofi folder for background music. All preloaded on a boot drive with a Linux distro capable of both running on the hardware and viewing everything I brought, if I can figure out how to do that. Plus however many snacks I can sneak in.

Flynn_Mandrake,

Really cool, particularly the inbuilt sponsorblock and dislikes. Those are something I’ve been missing in my own Invidious. I’ll still stick with the original interface, but keep up the good work!

Flynn_Mandrake,

Going through Anna’s Archive also works, they usually have zlib links

Flynn_Mandrake, (edited )

The firewall port on my router is open, and as far as I can tell, my server isn’t running a firewall at the moment. ICMP might be a problem; ipv6-test tells me that those are filtered out. After checking my router settings, I’ve determined that ICMP is enabled for the device in question.

Tried my mobile connection already, doesn’t have IPv6. Also tried a nearby hotspot, same issue.

Flynn_Mandrake,

The DNS issue persists. The part that my friend helped me with was determining if I configured my router firewall correctly, which I did. Currently I can reach my server from the internet only directly via its IPv6 address, with no progress on binding it to my domain name.

Flynn_Mandrake,

My host records consist of a single AAAA record that points to the IP address of my server, which I verified beforehand. I’ve tried dig, but I’m not sure how to interpret it’s output, which looks as follows:

Flynn_Mandrake,

Correct! Single AAAA record pointing to the IP of my server, which I verified beforehand.

Flynn_Mandrake,

Thanks for the answer! Unfortunately, the response from dig AAAA is rather lackluster:

I’m starting to suspect Namecheap just hates IPv6. Their dynamic DNS service only covers v4, too

Flynn_Mandrake,

Some further tests make it look like dig is influenced by some caching stuff going on on my PC. I figured that out while playing around with a TXT record for testing purposes, and noticing that host and dig return different results for the same input.

Running the commands again on my phone using Termux reveals that the AAAA record is in place and functioning, but I still can’t reach the website from my browser by using the domain name.

Flynn_Mandrake,

Correct on all counts. I’ll try some other DNS servers later. Right now I’m using the Mullvad DNS servers, any suggestions for ones that support DNS over TLS?

Flynn_Mandrake,

YouTube is already a sedated, anaemic whale of a website. Adblock probably makes it run faster, given it usually removes stuff rather than add it. If you want speed, I recommend a frontend such as Invidious or Piped, it’s what I use on my weaker laptops where YouTube takes half a minute to load.

Flynn_Mandrake,

That’s neat, I should adopt that terminology!

Flynn_Mandrake,

Sounds like Firefox text mode with extra steps. Granted, it might be good for other browsers, but I personally am doing fine so far with a reader plugin on Palemoon.

Also, as other users have mentioned already, it’s sus as heck.

Flynn_Mandrake,

After trying both, I’ve settled on Invidious. I prefer the UI, it feels more snappy than Piped. Plus, with Piped I had this problem with longer videos where it’d just stop playing somewhere in the middle. Might be fixed by now though.

[Question] Reliable sources for exotic weaponry/trinkets/back items?

I enjoy experimenting with different builds and classes, and thus always have a need for new equipment of different stat varieties. For armor, I like to utilize the Bladed armor set, which has selectable stats, exotic rarity and is available in all weight classes. It’s also comparatively fairly easy to farm for, since most...

Flynn_Mandrake,

Looks like I’m going to have to figure that out then, because that’s by far the most straightforward way to get gear that I’ve seen so far. Thanks for the advice!

Flynn_Mandrake,

Make all of them run a bogosort on a list of 10-100 items. Whichever one finishes last gets shot. Repeat until you no longer have idle servers
