Pretty much just a remote server dedicated to torrenting you can rent. It'll download and seed torrents for you and you can stream them to your other devices or just download them (not every provider offers streaming).

You should be able to use adbshell with shizuku (both in f-droid) to remove whatever you won't use. I doubt there's any custom Roms that'll help here though. If you're willing to root the phone then you can probably find some way to get what you want.

I wouldn't say this has anything to do with the Linux kernel itself. I would make the request with whatever app handles your auto-login (probably your login manager). Also I don't see the point of a keyring password if it's never entered. I think it would be by design that the keyring stays locked when no password or authentication is provided.

I mean to use something like htop, btop, or psensor to check how much of your RAM, CPU, GPU, etc is being used along with temperature. Also, what do you mean your RAM always shows as full? I get that Linux "uses" it all but most resource monitors should be able to tell how much is actually being used for programs.

Maybe checking your computer's resource utilization could provide some insight.

I would go with option 4. I have a 1TB NVMe with /boot, /, and /home. Then I have two 1TB SATA III SSDs, one is for games and the other music. It makes more "sense" to have / and /home on separate drives but I don't recommend this personally because / doesn't need a whole terabyte of storage so it'd just be wasted. Swap is optional (I don't use it even on Gentoo). Me picking option 4 over 3 is just personal preference though. I like having /home smaller because it just holds basic stuff and then I have my 2 extra drives as bulk storage dedicated to something.

This isn't true. I'm on Linux and just created a torrent maybe 3 minutes ago. It's under the "Tools" option in the toolbar at the top. It can also be opened with "Ctrl+N". Maybe it's just not a thing with the docker version?

Is this a meme?

• Great for beginners
• Uses it's own configuration language so no coding required
• One of the most popular window managers so documentation and such is plentiful
• Has a 1:1 Wayland fork called Sway
• Is a manual tiling window manager which means you specify where a window will appear when you go to launch something.

AwesomeWM

• Is awesome
• Configured in Lua
• Has a great status bar built in
• Great documentation
• Is a dynamic tilling window manager meaning it places new windows in accordance with a preset layout.

Qtile

• My favorite
• Has a 1:1 Wayland version built-in
• Configured in Python
• The best status bar I've used
• Great documentation
• Dynamic tiler

XMonad (Note: never used this so take this how you will)

• Configured in Haskell
• Has a lot of dependencies
• Extremely configurable
• Dynamic tiler

There're many more window managers out there but these are the ones I've personally used (besides XMonad) and know the most about.

If you don't like a built in status bar then you can disable it in the config and use another one like Polybar. Distrotube (on Odyssey or Youtube) also has really good videos on all of these window managers and more which I really recommend you check out if you haven't already.

Personally though, I think Qtile will give you the best experience.

Personally I would recommend Linux Mint. It's based on Ubuntu so any issues should be easy to find and fix online. It's very similar in terms of the actual desktop to Windows instead of being completely different like Pop!OS. You should also be able to completely avoid the command line as well though I do encourage you to have your friend learn at least some of the basics so he at least knows how to use it.

From my experience Mullvad is the way to go for privacy. They're only about $5 USD a month and have a great app available from F-Droid.

I use a program called unrar to unpack .rars

unrar /path/to/.rar/

Then I run the installer .exe with Wine. Once that finishes I add it as a non-steam game and select the newest version of Proton. Sometimes I'll check protondb if the game doesn't work right away.
