have a >1 ratio to download anything which is impossible by definition

They give you a bit of leniency after you first sign up. All that share ratio means is that you leave your computer seeding for a while after your download finishes, and when your torrent client has uploaded the file you got from them to e.g. 5 other people you can stop seeding it. They’re asking you to give back, is all. If you download a 3GB file from other people in the swarm and then immediately close the torrent before anybody can download it from you, after enough repeat times of you doing that, they’ll stop letting you download new files.

Trackers cannot read, and are not interested in, the number at the bottom of your torrent client, or your history with other trackers. They just care that you seed their torrents after you’ve finished downloading them so other people can download them too.

Everybody always says this, but I’ve yet to talk to anyone who even has an anecdote of talking to a Gen Z person for whom that’s true.

On other distros I don’t have to read the wiki to look up the syntax of installing nvidia drivers, or rustup, or neovim, or home-manager (the package manager that lets me install programs as a user The NixOS Way™ and if you use nix-env instead you’re doing it wrong (the instructions on the wiki for installing home-manager do not work anymore, and also involve nix-channels which you are apparently never supposed to use ever, and even after managing to get it installed and reading 3 articles about it I am still not sure what it does)) because no two of those are installed the same way

You forgot to put Windows 10 in “Maliciously Bad”

You will use Windows 11 or you will not use Windows at all

Me either but I’m tired of clearing my schedule to read wiki pages every time I want to make any change to my configuration

She asked a question. It was answered.

You spelled NixOS wrong

I’d love to read it for myself but it’s paywalled. Do you think you could run it through archive.is?

well it’s not software

Another day of GNOME developers doing everything they can to convince me I made the right choice sticking with Plasma

Ahh, the Fireforks. Randomly breaking things in impossible-to-diagnose ways in the name of privacy since 2018

Happy cake day!
