Either a website hosting and cataloguing torrent files (or magnet links, doesn’t matter), or a special server that doesn’t host anything and just helps communicate the peers (people seeding and leeching). Both are commonly called that

edit: i meant the first one in my previous comment btw

thanks for correcting, ig they didn’t update the wiki page

rutracker has rules that you have to have a 0.3 ratio at least, idk if they can do anything if you don’t have an account or if that’s enforced at all, my ratio’s too good to know

edit: no longer the case as pointed out below

Proud to live in a place that doesn’t care and also proud of my ISP for posting articles on how to torrent stuff on their main website lol

you will get booted off of most private trackers lol (and some public ones)

Seeding uses your drive (reads it so long as it’s seeding to someone), your bandwidth (obviously), and a negligible amount of power/computational resources.

If you have a tracker you trust you could start by reading their guides. Like my most used public tracker tells you to have a ratio of 0.3, meaning for every part/torrent downloaded you seed 0.3 back to the people. I usually stay for at least 1-1.2 until I turn my pc off. If you want to be helpful you could also get some “rare” stuff to seed, same tracker classifies it as having fewer than 5 others seeding it.

In general, “don’t hit and run” holds true, if you can seed for just an hour after you’ve downloaded your stuff, do it. When it comes to torrenting, we are all we got.

I’m trying to convert some of my (alarmingly) slightly younger friends to torrent trackers. So far so good

edit: and tbf slightly older people are almost as bad about streaming in my experience, so it affects everyone

Or buy used and stop contributing to that disposable bullshit industry

Depends on the car, if you look at land cruisers for example, they hold their value insanely well

post your raads-r score I’m compiling a scoreboard

This is part of why I like winter, it’s dark all the time so I get to go outside in a chill environment and when I come home it’s dark and chill again so I can relax.

edit: I do find city noises very calming though, as long as it’s not construction noises or a lawnmower

I mean… at some point you might wanna get off the boat so makes sense?

Heaven’s waiting room

I tried hosting my own TS server recently and it’s easy as shit. Not as many features sure, but it’s so snappy and it just works. Ideally I’d move to mumble and host it on some old laptop but as a backup thing I can’t complain

To put things into perspective: VRchat is barely at 100M rn and is infinitely more entertaining and usable

The question was about the best equipment, and in it’s class F-35 is (so far) the best, considering the price. I’m sure everyone and their grandma would want 100M worth of cheap anti-drone tech too but a contract’s a contract, and they get cool planes out of it. Planes that will get a shitload of upgrades in the near future, wingman uavs for example.

I can forget about stealth capabilities for a sec, but Migs, really? Enjoy your 6 mig29++++ ever built and wooden mockups of fifth gen planes.

edit: also why would they want rafales if they don’t have carriers and they’d never carry nukes?

With F-35’s costs, is it really the best equipment?

Name another stealth jet that you can buy right now in significant numbers.

Have you tried this new, totally different 12th SSRI? /s

That’s a solid plan except when your OEM doesn’t fucking provide any (thanks lenovo)
