This headline is terrible. Why would they quote the weird metaphor instead of paraphrasing what it actually means in context?

That kernel level anti-cheat is really working out well, eh?

How such generic features are even awarded patents is beyond me. None of these are even remotely exclusive to Pokemon or Palworld.

EDIT The grossest thing about this is that these patents were all filed this year, meaning they were filed with the exclusive intention of building a case against Palworld. There really is no level to which Nintendo won’t stoop.

I have this issue too, and I figured out a workaround. Deleting the files manually via rm frees up space. Deleting files via qBittorrent via UI or automatically does not.

Turns out the files were just being moved to a “.Trash-UID” (where UID is the UID of the container) folder in the /downloads directory (or wherever that folder is mapped to on your host). Clearing that out freed up the space.

I suspect this is a bug where the “Delete files permanently” setting is not being respected. You might want to set up a cron job to delete that folder periodically in the meantime.

Neat! I should dust it off again. 🐧
