You may want to update your post to mention which version of qBittorrent 4.6.0 you're on.

e.g. are you using the build with Libtorrent 1.2.x or Libtorrent 2.0.x?

Libtorrent 2.0.x does tend to use more memory during runtime (especially when you have many actively uploading/downloading torrents) but it's fine overall, the OS / kernel knows to redistribute memory away from qBittorrent to other applications as needed. In other words if nothing is crashing then you should be okay.

That said I've mainly tinkered with Libtorrent 2.0.x clients on Windows (Deluge & qBittorrent) so there might be something I'm missing specific to Linux or Docker. qBittorrent with "Physical memory (RAM) usage limit" set to its max will basically let Libtorrent use as much memory as it likes.. it is lower priority memory so in theory as long as everything else in Windows is working the other applications can still request memory & run properly. Funny enough with Deluge I don't think it even has a RAM usage limit setting so Deluge with Libtorrent 2.0.x will happily use the max memory available to it.

To be fair the site claims they have an open source application yet there is no link to the source code.

Another commenter mentioned github so I searched around & found a potential github project but they're at 4.0.0 release while this site you linked claims to offer a "4.2.0.apk" so I guess it's some random 4.2.0 release version?

Are you able to link the source code that this website refers to?

EDIT: Nevermind I think I found it, the .apk being offered matches this project at github https://github.com/recloudstream/cloudstream/releases though I'm not too sure if the .ws site being linked here is associated with the github project (the github page doesn't mention the .ws site and the .ws site doesn't mention the github page)

What kind of hellhole is that city? I had an impression it was extremely expensive but also very wealthy. The more I hear the worse it seems.

LOL start reading about Dubai sometime.

Same here.

Hoping they'll offer a better discount + trade in deal later on, maybe Black Friday? Otherwise I may end up skipping the Pixel 8.

TBH my Pixel 7 still works great so it's not a big deal sticking with it but now that I cracked the exterior a nice trade in discount could convince me to upgrade :D

The Vuze devs forked the code and went on to create and continue developing BiglyBT. So technically if you want to keep using that client best to switch over to BiglyBT.

You can stay with the old Vuze if you want but it's no longer developed since it lost its devs.

You can try !mediashare@lemmy.world

Or install Jellyfin and host your own media yourself.

Just to be sure, did you download some strange version of the .iso from some non-official source? Or did you modify your Windows install in some way?

And you're definitely selecting to install Windows 10 Pro, not something else?

I assumed you downloaded the generic .iso direct from Microsoft at https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10 like most people do. (you can use the browser trick to get the page to give you .iso download options e.g. in Chrome I just hit F12, set the dimensions to something mobile looking, hit F5 to refresh the page, then go ahead & download the .iso)

The generic .iso is indeed a multi with the download option named "Windows 10 (multi-edition ISO)", that itself doesn't affect any of the steps above.

Then just use Rufus or similar to create a bootable USB with it.

LOL I didn't know that works too, good to know :D

Technically you can just click "Domain join instead" to go into the local account creation.

You just need to select to "Domain join instead", there is no need to actually go & set up an actual domain. See my other comment.

Hmm on the last few installs I've done (both Win 10 and 11) I just lead the installation to believe I'll be doing a corporate/domain install & it always lets me create a normal user/password after that. Not necessary to unplug any ethernet/internet or anything of the sort.

It's always worked for me both at work and at home.

Just to be sure, I spun up a virtual machine to install Windows 10 22H2, here are the steps I went through:

  1. Boot into the Windows 10 installer, jump into the installer & run through all the initial install steps until we get to the OOBE (Windows 10 out-of-box-experience post installer)
  2. Select your Region, click Yes
  3. Select your Keyboard Layout, click Yes
  4. Skip Second Keyboard Layout (unless you want one)
  5. Let it keep going, it might restart (mine did)
  6. At the Account screen select Set Up For An Organization then click Next
  7. At the "Sign In With Microsoft" screen select "Domain join instead"
  8. At the "What name do you want to use?" screen enter your new Windows user account name and click Next
  9. At the Password screen enter a password for your Windows user account and click Next
  10. Re-enter your password and click Next
  11. Set up a security question/answer - Or do like I do & fake them all e.g. select a security question then enter random gibberish alphanumeric text - and click Next
  12. (do the same for all 3 security questions)
  13. Select your Privacy settings then click Accept
  14. Accept or skip any customizations you want (I usually Skip)
  15. For Cortana you can click "Not Now" or "Accept" up to you

Done! You now installed Windows 10 Pro without a Microsoft Account.
