WORSE!
I had a huge gig-torrent years ago and the last seeder was from Minnesota and he left with people only at 99.5%! IT'S BEEN YEARS AND HE NEVER CAME BACK! He said he would turn his computer on after he got some milk and cigarettes! Don't defend your state to a man who knows too much!

I have mine set up to seed until it reaches ratio of 1.5 at least and then if its inactive for a week, it just gets removed (just the torrent).
All of my stuff is hard linked (I know its not the safest) but it made my life so much easier with private trackers.

Well, I promise to set up an old laptop for permaseeding once I have room to. I'd set it up in my room, but I already have enough electronics running and making that place a furnace.

you can do that? i just keep the torrents as is, lol.
i only remove shitty game or outdated versions torrents.
on a secondary note, i thought my firewall was being a nuisance with qbittorrent but nah, it's just that there is no one trying to piratin' the files i have so my qbit ratio is at 0.69 now.

that's cool i guess but i don't really see a reason to do that as previously stated.
pretty much, unless the files got a version update or something like barotrauma.

Anyone know how to make the text bigger in qBittorrent?
This just started today and it's driving me nuts.

Do you mean as in to make the font bigger or to make the column of text wider? For the latter just slide it over (hover your mouse over the vertical line between the labels until the cursor changes then click and drag), for the former it might be in settings or it might be on an OS specific location.

How safe to use is the hypervisor bypass I've heard about? It won't brick my PC or kill all functionality besides playing the game if its enabled, will it?

Recently I have been hearing a lot of people are claiming that if you use hypervisor crack, disabling the security settings to play the games, then if you don't revert the settings back immediately, via the VBS script and restart, you would get hacked immediately if you just as simple as visiting a webpage.
THAT is not true at all (well not entirely), let me dive deeper a bit to explain what are you really sacrificing by using the Hypervisor.
But before we can get to that, let me explain this first.
What even is Hypervisor?
Okay, now, normally, when your OS, in this case, Windows has the highest level of control over your computer. It manages all your software, your RAM, your SSD, your CPU, your GPU and everything. We call this running at Ring 0, aka the Kernel level (this is where the anti-cheat, drivers etc live)
However, a hypervisor is special here, it is a software that actually sits beneath the OS, actually on the hardware itself, and we call this Ring -1
But wait a second, why do we need this to play Denuvo games? Well here.
Why do we even need this?
For semantic reasons, let me just clear this outta the way, Denuvo is actually NOT a DRM, it is an Anti-Tamper software that WRAPS around the actual DRM, like Steam/Epic. So why this distinction? Simple because the job of Denuvo is not to protect the game, it is to wrap around the actual DRM and make sure it doesn't gets altered through runtime monitoring.
For example here, if I try to modify the game's codes, in this case, removing the license check, Denuvo would detect this and terminate the game. It does this in many ways, through checks, such as CPUID, KUSER_SHARED_DATA, PEB (Process Environment Block), etc etc, we won't dive deep these checks this time, because that's a topic for another day.
Just know this, Denuvo is like a super duper paranoid security guard deeply embedded in system, it checks a lot of things and a lot of times when running the game, hence why it makes the traditional cracking methods super difficult, because this security guard is super diligent at doing its jobs, it checks for too many things and too many times, and to bypass it, we need to patch these checks manually one by one. (There are some tools privately held by the crackers to do make things easier but the fundamental doesn't change)
Think of it this way, the game, let's say Stellar Blade is premium Strip Club (which kinda is already lmao), and you want to go into the strip club, but the entry fee is 70 dollar (pretty cheap for a club but you get the idea), you don't wanna pay for that, of course, so you sneaked in, which is already difficult enough, since you need to bypass the first Pre OEP special checks (this is the thing runs just before handing control to Original Entry Point, it also manages token validation, expiration etc for people who use Offline Activations, let's just assume you bypassed it)
You are now in the club, you see, but immediately you see this security guard Denuvo getting to you, and say "Hey, where is your ticket?"
You reply with "Ah.... ticket?"
And you get kicked out (the game closes)
even if you bypass that, the security guard would immediately return and say "Why are you wearing blue? We don't allow blue clothes in here"
And you are like "ahh I wear blue..."
You get kicked out
and let's say you bypass all of those, and have fun for a couple minutes, going to another room now (loading screen), then the security guard comes again, asking you "I want to see your signature, write it down on this paper, right now!"
You try to fake a signature of your pretended identity as best as you can, but the security guard suddenly yells "You took too much time writing this! You are a FAKE! GET OUT NOW!" and you get kicked out again (rip)
How Hypervisor actually bypasses this
Let's say, with Hypervisor, because you are like a mind controller, freaking Lelouch or Jedi here, you walk into the club, the security guard asks you. "Where is your ticket?
You raise your hand, and you say "I HAVE THE TICKET!" You control his mind, making him think you do have the ticket
The security guard immediately says "Oh sorry, sir, my bad, please enjoy"
But then he returns, looks at you and say "Wait, why are you wearing blue? We don't allow..."
"I AM NOT WEARING BLUE!" You raise your hand and mind control him again.
And he lets you pass because he's mind controlled by you.
Same goes for the signature check, "Write the signature down right now!"
"I WROTE IT DOWN!"
"Oh of course, sorry for the interruption."
So yeah that's how hypervisor works, I kinda digressed a lot here, but it is kinda necessary so you can understand how hypervisor is actually needed how it works.
Now let's get back to what we were saying
What does the Hypervisor actually need you to disable?
Currently with the Kirigiri method, these are the things that you need to disable before you can use the Hypervisor crack.
Memory Integrity (HVCI), Credential Guard, Windows Hello, Hyper-V, Driver Signature Enforcement (DSE).
However, what is NOT disabled are:
Secure Boot and EfiGuard
Let me explain what are these things being disabled one by one.
It also makes sure the drivers are Read Only, to prevent Kernel Hijacking.
So, here's the thing we need to load our own drivers and we can't have it being dragged to the secure room, because once in there, we can't pass and our crack driver got beaten up and thrown away, so, it gotta go.
2. Credential Guard
This is essentially big safe container for all of your important credentials, such as your Kerberos tickets, your biometrics, and your authentication data, let's not dive deep into this, let me just summarize here, all of your very important network secrets are stored in this big secure box, if you disable it, a hacker, can just dump your credential or impersonate you through the network.
Technically speaking, this is more of a collateral damage, because the Hypervisor crack doesn't do anything in this department but having it on causes virtualization conflicts with our Hypervisor, so it's disabled
3. Windows Hello
This stores your PINs, facial recognition, and fingerprint scans etc, it's disabled because it relies on Credential Guard.
4. Hyper-V
The official Windows Hypervisor, this is the main thing for us to disable in order to load our Hypervisor, but we can't disable this and load our Hypervisor, so everything above have to be disabled first (which are the VBS features) and additionally, we must add boot option to prevent the Hyper-V from loading up.
5. Driver Signature Enforcement (DSE)
This is the pretty much the most important thing for us to disable. Because with it, Windows makes sure every driver that it loads have the Microsoft-approved certificate and we don't have any of that. (But hey, if you are some high level Microsoft insider who wanna risk your job and potentially land yourself in jail for this community and internet points, feel free to contact Kirigiri, also this is when you load the script and restart the computer, you see a bluescreen and you have to press F7)
So what are the consequences then?
Consequences
First of all let me say this, with all of these stuffs off, your Windows Firewall, and Windows Defender will still function.
Your firewall will continue to work just fine. It will still monitor your internet traffic, block unauthorized incoming connections, and stop basic network attacks. It doesn't rely on Hyper-V or DSE to function at all.
And your Windows Defender will continue to do its job too, actively scanning the files you download, monitoring your PC for known viruses, and deleting basic malware (for instance, like standard trojan or a keylogger you accidentally downloaded off some shady sites).
However, there's just one caveat, because now you have disabled DSE and Hyper-V, Windows is now willing to accept any underlying driver file without a signature. This opens the door to a very very particular type of Malware, Rootkits, or Driver Malware, and it can do big damages.
Since, It can load its own unsigned, malicious driver directly into your system's Kernel, it gets access of everything, it can turns the Windows Defender off, add exception to the firewall, so hackers can remotely access your PC, embed itself below the OS in (aka Rootkit)
Would I get hacked if I don't revert the settings back just by visiting a webpage?
No. When you visit a website, the browser runs the site's codes, such as HTML, CSS and JS etc, inside a highly restricted environment called a sandbox. For a hacker to compromise your PC just by you visiting a web page, they need a chain of exploits.
The only thing that we compromised with the Hypervisor crack is the third step, but the first and second remain strong at deterring these type of attacks.
Assuming you update your browser regularly, a hacker would need what is called a 0-Day Exploit in order to control your PC, but here's the thing, a fully working, chained browser 0-day is worth millions of dollars, nobody is going to waste their multi-million-dollar 0-days on some random ass gamers who want to play Denuvo games.
But how would I actually get hacked
Simple, you actually download something, that Windows Defender screams at being malicious, and you run it. Like a traditional virus.
The perfect attack here would actually come from, crackers and repackers themselves, like Kirigiri, Fitgal, and Dodi
For instance, Fit suddenly goes through a mid-life crisis or whatever and decided to wreak absolute havocs on the piracy community, since you trust her, and she tells you it doesn't matter if Windows Defender thinks my HV repack is a virus because it's a false positive, you install it and you get hacked.
However, that doesn't really happen, they have a reputation to manage, and I highly doubt someone would just suddenly do that.
The other attack vector is also you running some exe, could something from some untrusted sites etc, but that's not very different from how people usually get hacked, by using untrusted sites.
Should I revert the settings back after each play session?
technically speaking, no, this may come as a surprise, but if you know what you are doing, you keep your browser updated, and you don't download things from any untrusted sites, then it's fine (unless you want to play slop online competitive games, since anti cheat won't work with these settings off, and those games won't launch), there's no harm. But if you do download random stuffs from the internet, then let's be frank here, you shouldn't even be attempting to do this in the first place.
THAT is not true at all (well not entirely), let me dive deeper a bit to explain what are you really sacrificing by using the Hypervisor.
But before we can get to that, let me explain this first.

I personally don't have a burning desire to play around with this right now mostly because there's nothing I give a shit about to play with it. I'll give the tech a little bit to settle and see what happens.

Thanks for copy/pasting it over and letting me know what it about. Glad to know what it actually does, and yeah, same boat as you on waiting to see. Might give it a try for Requiem though, since that's about the only thing that's out right now.

If you actually did care about your security and you still wanted to play these games, one option would be to set up a Windows virtual machine with passthrough graphics. This is something you can do on Windows, but it's easier and has more tooling on Linux (because it originated as a datacentre VPS technique). Basically you'd have an untrustworthy Windows running inside your actual Windows, which you only use for games. Anything important you'd do in the outside, trustworthy install. If you wanted to play whichever game this hypervisor crack is for, you'd install a virtual Windows kind of like if you had a Windows app in your start menu, click it and your graphics will flicker while the GPU gets handed off to the virtual machine, then once your virtual Windows is done booting you can do whatever insecure nonsense you want, and when you're done you just click "shut down" in the menu and you get sent back to your real, secured windows after another round of flickering graphics.
I haven't done the cracked games thing, but I have used virtual machines with passthrough graphics to play games on Linux back before Proton became as good as it is now (and for a handful of games that really don't like Linux), and it works fine. There's a small CPU and memory performance penalty since you're literally running two operating systems at once, but your virtual machine does get 100% of your graphics card so for most games there's no noticeable performance penalty.

The flame icon doesn't mean you're blocked it means you're going super fire fast!
I have been noticing similar issues on IPT where torrents in search results are linking to tangentially related stuff. For example looking up "There Will Be Blood" and clicking the link brought me to "Blood Meridian" audio book torrents instead of the movie link I selected.

Simple answer: no.
Advanced answer: also no.
It's DRM protected, so you'd have to circumvent the DRM restrictions, which WidevineProxy2 allows by proxy'ing all traffic through a fake device and onto ffmpeg and mp4decrypt. Because even if you get the file, it's still decrypted. You can set up scripts to handle batch downloading for shows and whatnot, but PlayReadyProxy and WidevineProxy are still necessary in the background. -- You can also record the entire thing using a $20 USB HDMI to USB recorder, which will give subpar results, but it's without WidevineProxy.
