2·6 months agoI feel like it’s mostly shitposting but soon enough there will be a more formal competition. Possibly with a standardized VM and local package cache.

My experience is that just seeding what you like indefinitely is not useful. You have to be proactive and find popular torrents to seed and accrue any meaningful upload amount.
The tracker I use has a bonus point system to encourage all seeders even of unpopular releases but it’s slow.
I found that the perfect solution for my use case (music) ended up being Soulseek. I don’t have much money for seedboxes or buying extra storage so I feel like I’m priced out of private trackers.
1·1 year agoI think the main pro of this system would be that it requires no trust. The immutability would be actually a con for privacy: if you’re burned or doxxed later, there would be hard evidence of your identity in the blockchain.
Besides, solar photocells have a limited lifetime. Recycling them is possible but expensive so people just make new ones instead. Kind of like plastics if you think about it.
Profoundly internalized hierarchy all over this thread.
What? 7 million people died from COVID-19. How many more would it have been without all the safety measures?
Look, if people come to you in good faith to learn and you reply like this, how are you expecting to organize and positively influence people around you? Are you gonna build socialist utopia alone?
The idea is to build stuff together right? If you’re antagonizing everyone, how do you expect to achieve that?
I would feel mostly meh about reggaeton if it wasn’t the one and only thing everyone ever hears in a 300km radius of where I live. It’s frankly sad that Latin America, having so much creativity and diversity in culture, ended up with such talentless noise as the absolutely dominant genre.
It’s literally inescapable and an entire generation already only listens to reggaeton. It’s lazy and unpleasant, combined with a completely commercial mindset.
