Binhex does the same thing. There are checks performed before it allows connections to make sure it can resolve DNS across the VPN interface and that it can obtain an IP address from PIA (I also use them, grandfathered $6.95/mo baybee).
I used to run the applications on bare metal when I ran a Windows server (because that's all I knew at the time). Eventually graduated to a QNAP NAS, that wasn't enough, and moved on again to Unraid, where many of these apps are available through templates in their Community Apps section. It really lowers the barrier of entry for using Docker and makes it stupid easy to assign your container an IP address on your host network, so it can be its own "device" on your LAN (which helps for me since I've got that all segmented off in its own VLAN).
It's not too deep a rabbit hole to jump down, but it'll take time to get things just right to limit the amount you need to interact with the apps and manually select what you want to grab.
Docker, if you can run it on your hardware (either your normal system or on dedicated hardware) is a Swiss army knife that can help level up your acquisitions, and provides you with an isolated application environment if you don't want to install the applications directly to your device. For media specifically, there is a suite of applications under the same *arr naming scheme that allows you to index, monitor for releases of, and acquire different television shows, movies, music, and books.
Some container maintainers build in different capabilities into their torrent client containers, such as Binhex's qBittorrent and Deluge applications, that have VPN connectivity built in, so any network traffic running through that container will automatically use your VPN provider's WireGuard or OpenVPN capabilities, depending on who you use. Once you have that running and your tags tuned in the *arr apps, you have a headless, mostly independent machine constantly working on acquiring and upgrading your media.
Sidenote: the *arr apps can be controlled by mobile apps like LunaSea on iOS, and nzb360 on Android. The latter can also integrate with your torrent clients.
I was more making a general commentary based on observations through the season so far. It's undeniable how dominant Max has been, but it won't be like that forever (hopefully... we need better fights at the front).
Out of this world dominance this year. We'll see if the next couple years and the limited development they can do after their penalty last year yield any closer competition or opportunity for other teams to catch up.
Can you elaborate? I've got it enabled and working on my personal instance running 0.18.1. Is there an authentication check that isn't actually happening in the login flow or something?
This was my main concern. It felt very low effort and felt like a Reddit karma farmer, not a bot meant to spark discussion within the community. I wouldn't have had an issue with the content if it was clear that the post was made by a bot.
The timing of the stop is just as bad as the choice of compound, but you can't really pre-plan for a VSC or an SC. Still, though, Oscar was super, super close in the final sector of the last lap. I'm sure Ham wasn't pushing super hard because he just wanted to bring it home, but one or two more laps and I think Oscar could have sniped that last podium spot.
It looked like it to me. The clip starts here on the race highlights. Once Stroll returns to within track limits, it looks like direct wheel to wheel with harder contact on the rear right, which seems to have been what caused the suspension to break. at ~6:43 they show the onboard from Gasly's view and it was hard enough to jolt him, and only after Stroll made contact did the Alpine begin to crab.
I noticed that after my comment. Still a low quality post from a bot seemingly farming for clicks through to articles, where a description summary from a human or better parsing from the bot could have improved the quality of the post.
They 100% should not have been on the hards, but in the end the softs did wind up falling away from those that used them, so it wasn't completely boneheaded.
What a performance by McLaren! So impressed with Lando's driving in that last stint. Shame for Oscar, but P4 in his first F1 British GP as a rookie is nothing to be ashamed of.
There are plenty of people in my country who say and try to do things just as bad. Not to the scale of China, but do not for a second tell me that those same sentiments do not exist on this side of the Pacific.
