Seconding the other person asking which model you’ve got. I don’t see Linux compatibility listed on the web pages for the few models I just looked at. I also didnt see them list an included dongle, but thats something I’d be very interested in. Also do they all detect as Xbox controllers, or only the Xbox style ones?

Lol apparently the juicy stuff is every meme my friends have shared with each other for the last several years

I’ve been vaguely planning on using btrfs in raid5 for my next storage upgrade. Is it really so bad?

Megusta is much lower quality than the groups the OP mentioned.

Thats a setting you can change, and not a bug but the intentional default behavior because MMS is much more expensive than SMS in many parts of the world

Pretty sure you can still use RED with a VPN though. Its just the IRC server for interviews that requires you use your home connection.

The speedtest requirement is to ensure that you can seed effectively. Its for the overall health of the network not so they can geolocate you. If geolocation was a concern, then your IP would be plenty.

RED is so not a honeypot. Y’all paranoid. If your threat model includes hiding your IP from one of the most respected private trackers in the game, then you should probably stick to public where they don’t care if you use a different VPN every time you log in.

Isn’t OPS relatively easy to interview in to?

Many of the good private trackers have very active request sections too. Really obscure or old stuff may not be readily available, but with a decent bounty (if required) someone will probably be able to find them for you.

From reading about PieFed’s moderation tools linked elsewhere in this thread, seems like the solution to that is already built in more explicitly for them.

like this?

They both got silver if I’m not mistaken

The economy on MAM is mostly points based and you’ll generally get very little organic upload. You only need to download some freeleach stuff (or use freeleach tokens) until you’re getting enough bonus points hourly to meet your needs. Upload credit is actually very cheap to buy with points and VIP status isn’t that expensive either. Plus the community generally donates a ton of points to all new users - even more so if you’re at all active on the shoutbox.

If you don’t want to donate 5$ to the website you need to wait 4 weeks before you’re eligible for VIP, and a lot of content is locked behind VIP. Fortunately though after the 4 week waiting period its very easy to keep VIP all the time. Even easier if you don’t want to keep VIP all the time and only need it once or occasionally to download specific content. All VIP content is freeleach to VIPs and locked to VIPs only. This incentivises people to be longstanding active members of the community and not hit and run after grabbing one or two books they were looking for.

You can interview for MyAnonaMouse on Wednesdays and Saturdays.

IPT admins will ban literally anyone for literally any reason, then tell you they’ll reinstate your account if you donate. This is their business model and they’ve been doing it for many many years. Aside from predatory donation fishing, there’s a ton of very low quality content on IPT. The kind of stuff that would be banned on any respectable private tracker.

I’m planning on getting some recertified Seagate Ironwolfs from SeverPartDeals very soon

GPLs “restrictions” are freedom preserving though. It only restricts developers from keeping dirivitive code proprietary. In order to violate the GPL you’d have to choose to use GPL code and then choose not to release your modified versions of it under a similar copyleft license. It may seem counterintuitive, but having those restrictions results in more software freedom overall - similar to the paradox of intolerance.

I’m not saying MIT or so called permissive licenses are bad, but the permissive/restrictive language is just as loaded as the OPs suggestions. Both styles are needed, but copyleft licenses are better at promoting software freedom.

Edit: I do agree with you that LGPL serves an important role in promoting free/libre software where it would otherwise would never be used.

Um… Its not ironic at all? Mozilla has been active and well regarded in privacy oriented spaces for many years.

Well since nobody can name a tracker with any AV1 content, I will for anyone finding this post in the future.

As mentioned in the OP, LST.gg has an uploader, KIMJI, who encodes western cartoons, TV, and movies in 1080p AV1. I personally love the quality and file size of his encodes. There’s some other AV1 content there as well. Several WhiskeyJack encodes have been uploaded, although I don’t know where they originate.

I really wish I knew where to find anime in AV1 still.
