we gotta get back to torrent distribution, i just watched someone eat eight grand in bandwidth charges because they ran a direct-download piracy site with local file hosting through cloudflare. torrents were invented literally for this exact reason
torrents work like this
i have a file or folder on my pc that i want to share with other people. let's call it gayshit.mp3
unfortunately gayshit.mp3 is 750mb and im not paying for discord nitro so i need another way to send it
i put it into qbittorrent and it makes a torrent file. this is essentially a very small file that points to gayshit.mp3 so other computers can find it. kinda like a treasure map
i send this tiny file to my friend, who loads it into qbittorrent. their computer takes a moment to find mine over the vast expanse of cyberspace and then (as long as my pc is running and the file is still where it should be), it gets copied from my hard drive to theirs
this is the cool part: if somebody else loads that tiny file, they can download it from both of us. if i'm offline but my friend is on, the third person can still get it. this also means that if two people have separate halves of the file, they can download the other half from each other. as long as some combination of people have the pieces between them, they can all have the whole thing.
crucially this does not require a server!!! you can just upload the file to a few people and as long as they keep it, it's still accessible. as long as somebody, somewhere is still connected, it's available forever. the only way it goes away is if everybody disconnects from it.
please learn to torrent

always use qbittorrent, do not use bittorrent or utorrent.
Honestly, Tvyek is pretty miraculous. It’s permeable to water vapor but not to water, it’s nearly impossible to tear, but can be easily cut. It’s cheap and made entirely without binding chemicals. In addition to being used for wristbands, it’s used to wrap construction sites to keep out water during construction, for tear-resistant envelopes at Fed-Ex, coveralls for mechanics, and my wallet, actually.
Fun tip, though it looks like paper, Tyvek is plastic, and cannot be recycled with paper.
holy fuc
I didn’t even know it had a name
please please please please reblog if you’re a writer and have at some point felt like your writing is getting worse. I need to know if I’m the only one who’s struggling with these thoughts
this is a common phenomenon. the better you get, the more you recognize flaws. the good thing is you can strive to get better. but the bad thing is that you see nothing but flaws. you are actually getting better, but your editing/critical brain is getting tuned up and can see more things to improve. someone post the graph, I can't find it
nvm I found it myself:
"art" can mean any creative endeavor and it definitely applies to writing.
And this is why I’m putting Windows 10 on my new PC.
It's in windows 10 too :( I just checked my system and had to turn it off.

This a a reminder to not fall victim to the sunk-cost fallacy. Just because you invested time and energy into something, does not mean you should indefinitely waste more time and energy on it, if you decide it’s not what you want anymore. This goes for anything, from books, to relationships, to jobs, to hobbies, etc.
If it’s not serving you anymore, move on.
This is honestly one of the places I find Marie Kondo's advice most helpful. I stop, look at the thing I've spent time and money on only to realize I dislike, and I say, "Thank you for teaching me something about myself and my preferences. I think I've learned this particular lesson and we can part ways now."
And then I don't feel like I "wasted" things or made a mistake. I just tried one path of learning about myself, learned something, and now it's time for a different path. Works a lot better for my brain.
The time Marie Kondo said "you can thank a a shirt you've never worn for teaching you about your taste", thereby making it NOT A WASTE literally rewired my whole brain. Acknowledge the thing and move forward, even if that means leaving the thing behind.

"My brother handcrafted a feeding station for my disabled cat so eating would be easier for her 🥺"
The video taker is holding up the invention: A device with a flat bottom and two cushions attached to it on their narrow sides, sitting parrallel, rather like a hotdog bun. On one end of the "bun" is attached a bowl at roughly cat mouth height. The entire thing is covered in blue, black, and white flannel.
The camera person moves the feeding station out of the way so we can get a view of their two cats: A brown tabby, who appears to be able boddied (a TAB-by if you will), and an unsteady calico, who appears to have Cerebellar Hypoplasia, AKA "Wobbly Cat Syndrome". The calico is also very vocal. We follow her wobbly trek across the room to a feeding area. "Let's see her use it for the first time."
The human sets the feeding station on a puppy pad for the cat to examine. "Checking it out." She sniffs at it, then wobble-runs away; the brown tabby also takes a quick look before strolling off.
The camera has moved to the bowl part of the feeding station; a hand reaches out to squeeze one of the cushions, then the other. "It's extra cushioned to keep her safe."
The cat examines the feeding station again, her eyes half-closed.
The human brings out the ultimate weapon: Tube meat! Slowly, the cat is coaxed into position in the feeding station, with the human squeezing extra tube meat out into the bowl as a reward. The human withdrawls and pulls the camera back to get a better shot of the cat slurping up gravy. We then get a shot from behind as she eats, showing that while she's still wobbling vertically a bit, she's held horizontally stable by the feeding station. Another few angles—from the side, above, and the front again—as she finishes her tube meat treat. The cat licks her lips and backs out of the feeding station.
"Now let's try it with dry food." The human scoops a portion of dry food into the bowl, then shakes it enticingly for the cat, who is now just beside the feeding station 'entrance'. "She's processing how to do it." The cat successfully squeezes between the cushions and starts crunching at her dry treats while the human skritches her haunches. "It's a success!" We see a new shot of her sitting down. "She can even sit in it comfortably."
