This is what I use. Once you get it working, it’s a great setup. I have it running on my mini HTPC under the hood, and it really doesn’t use much in the way of resources.

It has a webui that I can use to search and add torrents, and you can choose an alternate UI for the page if you want (I used VueTorrent, it looks better on mobile).

And, like others have said, you can bind it so that if your VPN disconnects, torrents won’t just keep running in the background.

Oh God, if anything they’re even worse. Same page, friend.

Housing costs are such a racket.

I feel like part of the insult is also not just with this particular company, but with the industry in general. I worked on the sound side as both production and post, and the amounts that places are willing to pay these engineer roles always seems to be insulting.

But either you take it or leave it, because there’s someone else out there who is desperate enough to work for what they offer. Maybe this isn’t the same across the pond, but it’s sure been my experience here.

Image removal and AI tools have an overlap, for sure. RemBG is pretty effective, which runs in many of the environments with Stable Diffusion. Bria is a recent improved model for RemBG, which I’ve had some good success with. It’s not perfect, but it cuts out a lot of the work.
