I dont have the willpower to maintain good ratios. I’m an unapologetic leecher.
A lot of that has to do with my setup though. I only have a very small SSD to use for downloads, then the files get moved to spinning disks for storage. I tried to seed from HDD but it trashed my system.
Retention is pretty much the biggest one. Trying to download an obscure TV show from 12 years ago? Good luck.
That torrent with one seed in the Czech Republic might take six months to download, but I’ll get there. Maybe.

All potentially fantastic ideas had the original author bothered to package in any of those formats. Much more common is the only release is a .deb built for an ancient version of Ubuntu, leading to my above frustrstions.
Someone probably could. But not me. I am not a software developer, and being one should not be a prerequisite to using an OS, despite what the memes in this very group might lead one to believe.

I’m really triggered by the idea that Linux makes running old software easy. The bane of my existence is finding an application that depends on libButts.5.1, but my distro ships with libButts.5.3, which isn’t backward compatible for some reason, and trying to install libButts.5.1 bricks the desktop environment for some reason.
I’ve been trying to AskReddit this for seven years, but it always got deleted. It’s a legitimate question!
Not very high brow I’ll grant you, but legitimate.
Amen brother. Hit 35 after gallbladder removal. I’ll never poop silently again.
I’ll admit, I typed it while dropping a deuce in the absolutely filthy restrooms at The Florida Mall.
Their insistence that it be pronounced ‘guh-nome’ is a worse crime.
Does this have the ability to scroll and stitch together long documents or web pages?
