  • I love the absurdity of game reviewers 😂

    • “This game is the pinnicle of its genre”

    • “This is the 1 game I would bring to a desert island”

    • “one of the most captivating puzzle games ever”

    85%, 88%, 70%, a C to a B. That is just above average.

    Meanwhile you get an absolute broken AAA piece of crap that barely functions, incoherant story, generic and boring and those same reviewers say “70-80%”. So there is a <10% difference between absolutely mastering a genre and releasing straight garbage?



  • I got in one private tracker and I like that system a lot. I seed my torrents for years because I don’t do a ton of very popular stuff, and I like some older shows. Like The Mentalist season packs on TG are at like a 30:1 for me because not many others seed them.

    However, the private tracker doesn’t use standard naming which sometimes fucks up searches and *arr, also, there are barely any seeders or leechers so a lot of media is hit or miss both downloading and uploading. Of the 50 or so things that I downloaded since I got on, 1 has a positive seed ratio, so thank mods for duration seed points…








  • I have an ITX Ryzen 2700X with an arc A380. 3 HDDs and 1 SSD boot drive.

    Before some kernel improvements for the A380, my idle wattage was 60W. Without the A380 it was around 35W idle. I am hoping that it is around 45W now because of fixing the high idle wattage of the GPU but I have to measure again.

    Performance is great though. Perfect Jellyfin streaming, home automation, document and media management, file sync, recipe management, etc…

    People tend to over-spec their servers, in my opinion. Unless you are dealing with more than a few dozen clients or so on one server (or having a many-user dedicated streaming server), you really don’t need much.

    What is Futo? Their website says absolutely nothing besides their “company values.”

    What is their business model?

    Who is running it?

    How do they earn money to give out?

    What do they ask in return besides hoarding the trademarks?

    Flat fee is always good, but I am always skeptical about these sort of completely opaque, altruistic companies that often turn into not-so-altruistic companies after they see more profit capabilities.
