It does have those abilities. Does op just want to rename them?

I've tried it before but i want a situation where i dont need to use the ssh agent. I think i'm gonna go with using rrsync

Ok i'm running into some issues. I have formatted with btrfs but immediately it does not work when attempting to mount.

I had it mounted and then set up with fstab, test installing some games to it but the second i ejected the device and then reattached it it cannot be mounted.

I get the error

An error occurred while accessing 'wd_black5tb', the system responded: The requested operation has failed: Error mounting system-managed device /dev/sdb1: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb1, missing codepage or helper program, or other error

I also installed winbtrfs with chocolatey but the drive fails to show up once plugged in and i dont see the drive anywhere

Thanks may have to try shelter since the camera thing has been an issue on insular and caused me to put ABSOLUTELY PROPREITARY apps on my main profile lol

So i mostly play older games (half life, skyrim, dishonored, etc) i have no issues with the mechanical drive for these. Now admittedly the larger games like skyrim i havent tried on linux only on windows but i dont see why it would be an issue.

I will probably eventually get a ssd for gaming and make the hdd purely for storage.

I have already recorded to this drive from the windows device with no issues. It is not intended to be super high quality tho. I just dont know if running over the network will go as smooth.

Rn, im leaning towards using btrfs bc it seems the performance speed between it and ext4 will be negligible and i will be testing out the driver for windows and obs over the network.

This masquerades as qbittorentt allows you to use RD with *arr

Where i live if they catch you downloading they will give you a warning, too many warnings and they can shut your internet off. Although it mostly applies to torrents, streaming is hard for copyright owners to go after cuz the streaming ips aren't public

If both devices are using a vpn they need to be connected to the same server

I would say nord is not considered privacy respecting. At least not in the way things like mullvad or proton are?

Will nord or express work for pirating yes, are they actually private, we don't really know.

Companies like mullvad offer no logging vpn whereas nord makes no such promise.

I honestly don't know too much about nord but i think that's the gyst of it

I can't speak for germany but where i live downloaders dont ever get sued, they just get complaints from isps and if they get too many they may be shut off or have their speed throttled.

Uploaders get sued because its too costly and time consuming to go after the downloaders

Ok, maybe stremio has a torrent client compiled in or maybe a plugin i dont use has one then.

However, if you turn off upload in your torrent client you can still get caught, uploading isnt want triggers it, connecting to peers with your exposed ip triggers

I dont think stremio does either technically. Stremio it's typically used as a front end application for debrid services. Mainly real debrid, all debrid and premiumize.

I believe the 2 debrids only download, but i think premiumize seeds, but not 100% sure.

That being said if a file gets added to these services it is not constantly leeching like op said. The real debid servers for example will download a torrent and distrubute the downloaded file throughout their cdn, leaving it in their cache for 30 days. I believe each time it is accessed by a user that 30 day clock is reset.

Stremio typically only shows cached torrents in there app so in order for a user to force a download they would need to go to their debrid provider directly and add the torrent causing it to get added to the cache.

Is it bad for the torrenting network, yes because they don't seed, is stremio using up all of seeders bandwidth, probably not
