I figure if its running all the time, it will use battery and data in the background, since it will be doing encryption and routing traffic. The last time I used an i2p router on my phone was over a year ago, I was using it to access my Invidious instance, I was using i2pd and had the bandwidth set to unlimited, it was running on public wifi, so it wasnt port forwarded or accessible outside of the LAN, I dont remember exactly what it said it used in bandwidth before I shut it down, but it was less than 100mb, idk what the battery was at before I turned it off, but it ran for about 2 hours that day.

Idk if im allowed to link it here, but for anyone having trouble accessing TG, they offer an onion service on tor, which is gonna be a whole lot harder to block, you can find the link on their official proxy list

Sure, the steps are different depending on which i2p router you are using, for i2pd, you just have to add a file in your tunnels.d directory, or add an entry in your tunnels.conf and then reload the tunnel configuration. In Java i2p, you will have to do it through the gui.

Here is the link to the tunnel config for i2pd: http://i2pcraft.i2p/example/i2pdtunnel.html And here is a link to a screenshot of Java i2p: http://i2pcraft.i2p/img/config.png

The tunnel length can be reduced to 1 for better performance, but you will sacrifice some anonymity.

But once the tunnel is setup and running, you can use Minecraft 1.19.2, or a newer version with ViaFabricPlus and connect to 127.0.0.1:25565. Its an anarchy server, but its pretty chill, I heard there is an iron farm and trained villagers for anyone to use near spawn, but I havent seen them. It is a cracked server, so you will have to use /register and save your password somewhere.

The other server is at mc.r4sas.i2p, I couldnt copy any links from there, I think its down rn, but the instructions for i2pcraft should be pretty much the same, just a different address. But I think its a russian speaking server, all of the players ive seen on i2pcraft speak english.

I dont use the outproxies for ssh, but it should be possible to connect to my server using its clearnet address using one of the outproxies. I have i2pd running on my server 24/7, and an entry in the tunnels.conf file that points to 127.0.0.1:22 on the server. When I want to connect to it, Ill run another i2p router on whatever device im connecting to, and Ill put the ".b32.i2p" address into ssh while using the SOCKS proxy for it. It is possible to make a client entry in the tunnels.conf on whatever device you are connecting from, and you can even turn the hops down to 1, which will increase performance, but lower anonymity. I think by default the SOCKS proxy uses 3 hops, but it can be changed.

But it should totally be possible to run your own private VPN over i2p, but Ive never done it myself, I just use ssh to port forward all of my self hosted stuff.

There are exit nodes in i2p, but they are called outproxies. The most popular ones are exit.stormycloud.i2p, purokishi.i2p, and outproxy.acetone.i2p. To setup an outproxy, you will have to setup software external to i2p, i2p routers by themselves will never exit. It is possible to visit onion domains inside of i2p, StormyClouds's outproxy has support for this, but from what ive heard, its recommended to use none of these, and to just use the tor browser if you need to access onion sites or the clearnet anonymously.

There are many use cases for i2p besides eepsites and torrenting, pretty much anything that runs on TCP can prolly be ran on i2p. For example, I run my servers ssh over i2p, so if my ip address were to change for whatever reason, the i2p address will remain the same. There are also IRC services, internet radio stations, there are even 2 public Minecraft servers.

Nheko is my favourite client, it uses QT and is written in C++, its lightweight and works well on my machines with low resources, it also respects my system theme

sudo sed -i 's/libalpm.so.14/libalpm.so.15/g' /usr/bin/paru

 

It took about 23 hours to get it booted under its own power using a binary kernel. And on the 4th day (today) I've managed to get a custom kernel working. Gentoo has been very fun to use and to customize, and it's very fast and responsive, even on my old hardware and with a hard disk, browsing heavy webpages with Librewolf is no problem at all. I've been sleeping on Gentoo for WAY to long.

What a bunch of cringe edgy antinatalist nonsense. Think about the future, if you don't have kids, who are we gonna feed to the machine a few decades from now?

I figure that the administrators of your homeserver could see your IP address, I doubt that it would be sent to anyone you are just chatting with.

Ive only had to setup a nvidia system once, so I might be missing some packages, but I think pacman -Rns nvidia nvidia-utils lib32-nvidia-utils should get rid of all of it.

 

Ive been tryna figure this out all day, Ive read the manual for systemctl and I didnt see anything about switch-root after the initrd target. I did see a --force option, however it didnt do anything. Before the upgrade to version 255, I would use a script or manually mount the partition, and then I would just do like systemctl switch-root /mnt and it would just switch to the other system in an instant as if I booted it normally. But ever since this update it just prints Not in initrd, refusing switch-root operation. and does nothing.

Is there a configuration file I can edit to allow switch-root after the initrd? Or is it like hard-coded and systemd would need patching and recompiling to allow for this? If so is there a way to just trick systemd into thinking its in the initrd and just let me switch-root?

I was dissappointed when I found out I couldnt just switch-root anymore. Any help, ideas, or suggestions will be much appreciated, thank you!

EDIT: To switch root in the new versions of systemd, you will have to mount the filesystem you want to switch root into to /run/nextroot and run systemctl soft-reboot, and it will switch into the root just like before.
