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

[estro-boi]

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

If you're struggling to write sex, write food. if you're struggling to write food, write gore. if you're struggling to write gore, write sex. They're all variations on the same themes.

[puppygirllaika]

it's all sensation and consumption and intimacy. it's all violence and beauty and taste. it's all wild and animalistic and elevated by our humanity. it's all deeply cultural and symbolic. it's all enjoyed by every sense the body has to offer.

being a kid and hearing adults say stuff like "woah 2011 was 4 years ago haha" didn't really convey the fucking horror of a youtube video crossing my recommended labelled "9 years ago" and it's from 2017. that's not true. 9 years ago is 2010 or something. don't lie.

that poll going around of the guy who thought "people only eat tofu as a bit because they're deranged vegans" or whatever really crystalizes something that i have never been able to precisely say - which is "a nonzero fraction of people who start picky-eater discourse just happen to precisely hate those foods which are not from north america and refuse to introspect on this whatsoever"

[tim-official]

In contrast some people say "there aren't any picky eaters in Asia 🙄" but this is laughably untrue. I have a cousin in India who refused until his 20s to eat anything in a sauce. as you can imagine in India this was difficult. he basically had to pick things out of curry and wipe them dry

i don’t think you understand, the most compelling part of shane hollander’s autism and how husdom williams portrays him is that he doesn’t know!

there is such a specific experience of having low-support needs and therefore going undiagnosed, especially within a highly specialized field, especially in a hypermasculine space.

everyone else, especially Ilya, is, to some degree or another, preforming a idea of masculinity, of what it means to Be A Hockey Player. they are themselves but a heightened version and when the game ends, they are able to leave the act behind.

but for shane, he IS that persona. his identity is Hockey Player. and you can tell!!! on the ice, hudson changes how shane carries himself and how much more visually he emotes. he’s put down all the work of navigating social dynamics and monitoring how others perceive him (which mind you, he doesn’t know he’s even doing)!! and that’s part of what makes him so good at hockey!! not that hockey is his special interest but because he’s wicked smart and clever and he’s not worrying about all this other shit anymore.

there is no way in hell that man would be emotionally literate enough to identify that feeling or even articulate that his every day feels like a performance and the performance feels real but i think hudson williams do such a fantastic job of letting shane wrestle with that cognitive dissonance.
