For day to day use I generally grab anything that I am interested in and leave it seeding indefinitely, or until I need to prune to free up some space.

If I need to boost ratio I grab something that is new and hot to seed for a bit. In general though, I try to seed things that have lower seeder counts so that they remain available. Many times these are not things that I am really interested in.

If you are not using any private trackers then I suggest you get on one and just be active. If there is a particular thing you are interested in then there is probably a tracker for it.

I also seed Linux ISOs but those are public so it doesn’t help when it comes to ratio or anything. It’s just a thing that I do because I can.

I recently watched Twisted Metal and it was pretty darn good. Who doesn’t love cars with guns?

That is a good way to explain it. Well done.

I read somewhere that the base game pass for console doesn’t include online multiplayer. That seems weird but might explain why the price is close to gold.

I tried for a long time to find reliable sources for the races and kept hitting a wall. Any sources I did find didn’t last or were unreliable. I eventually gave up looking.

I finally bought F1 TV Pro and don’t regret it one bit. The stream quality is great and being able to switch cameras whenever I want is a huge feature. The value added features are why I will continue to pay for it.

Yeah. I tried to grab the binaries which are on GitHub of course.

I went to the releases page which links to GitHub. I will clone the repo instead.

Already taken down. I tried to grab a copy but wasn’t fast enough.

Yup. They will use the fact that a user said they pirated a movie as a starting point. If Reddit capitulated and handed over the user info that could be used to hunt for more evidence and possibly connect them to other pirates. It would open a juicy can of worms for these bottom feeders. Good on Reddit for standing up for their users.

This is what I’m thinking. This is just a case of them seeing how far they can take it. Once precedent is set they can start to litigate based on a user merely mentioning that they pirated a movie.

I have a Block News account that I add to every now and then. I haven’t used it in a couple years since the indexer I was using shut down. Haven’t really looked for a new indexer though.

I have been using Real Debrid for years for this. It also integrates nicely into my Kodi set up for watching TV shows and movies.

Another +1 for MAM. The interview was pretty easy. If you are already established on some other private trackers then it will be a breeze.

Absolutely. Most folks will never have to worry about it. I would bet those using period tracker apps didn’t think it was a big deal either.

As a middle aged white CIS male, I am sure I have nothing to worry about. However, people in marginalized communities can’t be so confident.

Protecting basic privacy isn’t that hard and should be of interest to everyone. Governments and big corps shouldn’t know everything about us.

Hello, I am a 49yo tech nerd Linux user on Mastodon. I am this stereotype.

Nobody cares what porn you are into. Probably.

However, women using period trackers were free to do so in the US up into recently. Now that data can be subpoenaed and used to help prosecute if it is believed she may have had an abortion.

You never know when information posted online, or collected otherwise, could be used against you. It’s best to seek privacy respecting options whenever possible.
