It's usually in the network settings of the torrent client. Usually listed with "IP interface binding" or some such.

Qbittorrent has it as a dropdown menu with a list of available IP's to use, as well as an option to set it manually.

It's how long archeology has said we have had permanent settlements.

In reality it's likely far earlier than that, we only just found a settlement from 11,000 BCE in Turkey, Gobekli Tepe which was likely a sanctuary/shrine, as well as other towns in the surrounding area likely having started before even then.

Big archeology pushed back to say that that's not 100% certain and that humans were still nomadic, despite all the evidence showing otherwise. It was finally just recognized officially a couple months ago.

Disney has acquired Marvel over a decade ago (14 years). They are closer to producing 2 decades of Marvel content (6 years from now) than they are from the date of the initial merger in 2009.

It's very similar for Star Wars which was 2012.

They also still make original kids shows.

The first season was fine, this last season was a waste of time. Each episode amounts to nothing and there is sooo much repetition that I was thrown back to Heroes season 2 during the NBC writers strikes.

I don't know if S2 of Loki was the way it is because it was trying to change Kang or because it was trying to be impressive. As of now, it seems like the latter.

All that said, S2 of Loki was "technically fine", the acting was decent-good, the visuals weren't terrible for 90-95% of it, good soundtrack. It was just the premise and how it was written that fell flat for my friend and I, and we're both just kind of bewildered by the positive reception to it. Like, is the bar that low for people? Were we expecting too much? Is Disney just astroturfing? maybe a little of all 3. But holy heck, compared to other shows like Gen V and Invincible coming out each week we are so hype and sad about those episodes ending and we watch Loki and go... "that was it? ok..."

I did like the ending, though. Pretty much the only part of the show that wasn't sci-fi technobabble and actually amounted to something and a smidge of character development. Even still, it was only okay I guess.

It gets more complicated if someone is double-natted (CG/NAT) unfortunately.

It has 2 votes and the second comment just hasn't been voted on. But I also use Windscribe - the only thing to know about it is that there's been a probe. I personally feel that they handled it well and were transparent about it. Every VPN is going to have this happen to them at some point so IMO it's about how the information is delivered to the users that determines how trustworthy I find them.

Basically what @Metal_Zealot and you have to worry about are if you've downloaded enough to make a profitable case going after you in a civil suit.

As for using the VPN, any worthwhile VPN has split tunneling with inclusion and exclusion lists. I use Windscribe personally

The only thing that's cool about it is the actor/trivia information - otherwise it really is pretty terrible lol

Compared to Amazon, where they rip right from the server lol

I've also once solved a flicker by resetting my CMOS and then doing DDU - chances are slim but it's worth a shot along with the cable

I was tired of using MicroG services so I switched to LibreTube
