I wish there was a right click install button for deb files
FWIW instead of dpkg -i stuff.deb, you can use apt as such: apt install ./stuff.deb (The path syntax like ./ is required to use a local file instead of searching for a package name).
Unlike dpkg, apt is able to fetch dependencies if needed.

Usually the issue with app dependent products, is that it rely on a fucking cloud connection. That imply that if the cloud service goes down or the company collapse, your their product become unusable. Yet all corps continue to do it as it is super handy to track their pigeon users. Data can then be sold or used to plot growth curves that gives their CEO an erection.
Also it probably requires you to have a google or apple account.

French Torrent Giant YggTorrent Faces User Revolt after Introducing Paid 'Turbo Mode'
I've been banned from Ygg with "OUST" message also, I was just seeding some releases I already had to build up ratio on a relatively new account. New account start with a 10Gb upload and you need to keep ratio over 1 to get torrent link. I've been banned once I reached ~50Gb upload... I just hope French piracy will move away from those rats and find a better and more open torrent website.

Linus Torvalds Rejects RISC-V Changes For Linux 6.17: "Garbage"
Reply in thread
Cmon, this is not about naming, this is about non-generic code in generic header.
IMO hiding such a little operation behind a macro/function just hurt readability. Furthermore, considering that this function is only used once in the provided patch and that word ordering on RISC-V is not about to change anytime soon, it is perfectly fine to inline the code.

Should I follow Mullvad's qBittorrent suggestions? (disable DHT, disable PeX, etc)
Don't disable DHT and PeX, both are used together to find peers on public torrents, in fact it is the only decentralised way to find them (otherwise you only rely on trackers, which can DNS cencored or took down like any regular website).
DHT is great! DHT is the bone that make torrent unstoppable!
