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

kinda upset at somebody in a trans subreddit asking a question to "those fortunate enough to be born with boobys" because 1. its a trans subreddit and thats pretty insensitive to trans people who are dysphoric about having boobs, and 2. no one is born with boobs

devastating: artist who has not practiced fundamentals enough to execute high concept idea eats shit

[defenestratez]

“It's insensitive to say top surgery is mutilation because that hurts cis women who had cancer” why the fuck does it have to hurt cis women for people to actually give a shit about the transphobia that Tmen & Tmascs face. Oh my lord. It's insensitive to call top surgery mutilation point fucking blank!

suddenly thinking about the courtroom scene, of Stratt being accused of pirating literally everything, and Grace later having everything in the various computers aboard his ship that he gave a copy to Rocky without issue, and the beetles having such a massive memory capacity and...

Stratt was a historian. She wasn't just pirating for the sake of entertainment for the astronauts, she was doing a full historical backup of the planet. Who knows how much knowledge and communications ability, how much art and culture and history, how much niche knowledge of how to make specific pieces of modern technology or modern medicines, was lost as the wars for resources isolated everyone, as the death tolls led to the deaths of specialized trade workers and scientists, as the power grids failing across the planet (or cut off, potentially) led to all the cloud servers going dark. Stratt was facing methods of combating extinction and she did her best to ensure that if/when the Hail Mary worked, it would send back not just the hope of the future in the solution to the astrophage, but the restoration of history and culture and knowledge.

Just.... she pirated everything, and put it all on the Hail Mary.

Learning that being 19 is a very weird age to be, socially. I am in quite possibly the most specific age group that none of my neighbours are in

[pillowspace]

Young enough that my neighbours call me a kid, old enough that my older neighbour texts me to hang out. Young enough to be invited to a neighbour’s upstairs to play with the kids, old enough to unsurely decline because I didn’t feel that was my space to be in. Young enough to stumble through the grass looking like I’m 12, old enough to know that I’m a vastly different person from when I was 12. I’ve decided that this is an unpleasant age to be

[omtai]

Normal groceries like milk or bread or whatever running out is whatever. Just anotha day. But when stuff like salt or cooking oil or rice runs out it feels like You’re supposed to be here for me and you’re leaving. You’re just like everyone else

if youre wondering how things are going in america. This is for the exact same generic drug & dose in my zip code.

[teabree-shark]

Dog we have no idea either. I bet you yell at waitstaff.

[bedupolker]

No i do not, because if I buy a burger for ten dollars and it ends up being 15 after tax and tip that's just not a big deal, or if it was, i could eat at home. If it ended up being $540 and also if i had no choice but to eat the hamburger and suffer serious health effects and the then yeah I probably would.

Also, if it was the waitstaffs literal job to talk to my dietician and see if there was an alternate hamburger that cost less than $540 or if my dietician said insurance covered the hamburger and there was confusion at the restaurant. But again, that's your job, not waitstaff's.

Use your brain.

“we shouldn’t be holding indie creators to the same standards as bigger media“ i agree on principle but like this only seems to ever come up when the indie creator in question is being racist for some mysterious reason. So

So like

When Simon finally opens up to Grace about his past, being in prison for 16 years, telling him about Filament Station, about Eden- Grace suddenly stops him.

Because Grace is very good at math.

Simon seems to be in his early 30’s… meaning if he was locked up for 16 years he could have been anywhere from 13-18 at the time of the attack. Grace had been a middle school teacher. He had taught that exact age range, before watching those same kids that he taught grow and go to the high school in the next building over.

The idea of one of his kids being held responsible for 65 deaths and then sentenced to prison is enraging enough. The more he learns about the cult Simon was raised in- it sets off every alarm Grace had ever had as a teacher.

The fact that Simon was a child soldier and Grace was a child educator is not talked about enough.

I need Simon to be ‘forgiven’ by someone who understands that he was just a kid who had been groomed by a cult
