This always going to happen when a small group of people are going to try and the communications of a much larger group. They cannot scale and the more they try to keep up, the more tgey will cut corners and take easy, lazy decision.

Instead, everyone has to participate in community self-moderation. It should all be transparent and optionnal. Local sorting algorithms showing users what they ask to see.

Having a secret vanguard operating in the shadows is not acceptable,. Not only ut hurts them until they grow big enough to be the efficient secret police but then it creates an underlying organization of control shaping discourse on the entire platform.

The way forward is NOT to be reddit with extra steps.

As a compulsive datahoarders, millions, more ? It really depends if you include only stuff I actively enjoyed, or just each single instance of a copy I made, every torrent I’ve seeded.

I always wanted to take drugs with my computer!

What putting money into crypto does is empower early bitcoin speculators

So what kind of software are they running on there ? Is it more than a link to a pirate streaming site ?

TPM is the wedge to put a cryptoprocessor in your computer so program can finally operate under the tyrannical scrutiny of users and the pirates using ghidra !

We really should have m.2 insertable disks that plug directly into pcie1x bus

I think this kind of artificial demand creation is the main driver for all resource consumption

Ever since the crisis of over production, MAJOR, unceasing psycho-social campaign have been continuously been running not just to foster demand but to ensure it exceeds the planned supply and ensure the price margin always remains on the right side of the curve.

This is the central reason why nearly everyone works ceaselessly to buy things they don’t need and dont have the time nor energy to use.

Also capitalism’s need for infinite growth has lead us to impose engineered “demand creation” (through advertising) and now even “growth hacking” to supercharge this process. It has made us more wasteful than ever. We are headed into a wall.

Would this license create complication in case someone wants to fork the project ? Usually, this is the safety of using open source software, should the original dev team go rouge, a team of blue dev might assemble and fork the project to at least prevent regression of capabilities.

I too feel an unarticulated "ick*, there is something dangerous, along with not really open sourxe license. Can’t quite put my finger on it. Some potential loss of autonomy.

So, can’t fork if they throw users under the bus?

That profit comes from externalizing pain to others while capturing their livelihoods.

To call not doing that “voluntary waiving parts of your salary” is incredibly manipulative.

First these people aren’t salaried, they’re mercenaries, and of course their “compensation structure” ensures they’re largely free of the tax burden that the people they prey on have to endure.

Second, just because you can do sonething doesn’t mean it’s the rigth thing to do. Not that these people have had a moral belief once in their lives.

It is reallt aberrant all the evils that have been laundered in the name if money.

I think the better question is why do we allow these sick individuals to carelessly wield chainsaws around us?

Yes, this is the chicken and egg logic we have been served for the last 25 years that we have spent locked at 1 gigabit. This is because commercial players still had money left to milk to 10GBe deployments and 25 years later it it becoming obsolete in these environment. So we can have the free upgrade to 10GBe as the commercial deployments switch to 25, 40 and 100 GBe.

The thing manufacturer want to avoid collectively is product line cannibalization. And that means making sure that 10GBe was not the port you find on every random computer.

Of course, with the cloudification of general purpose computing. Most people in their homes just need a browser and streaming desktop client. So there could be other forces at play at preventing high speed LAN proliferation.

Imagine if a company could just make a 100$ nvme drive you can connect into your home router and it “just working”. No cloud, no serves, no redirect. It opens the port, update IP dns client, update certificates, works everywhere.

Websites that waste my time and leave my seedbox occupied yet idle until I play their games really annoy me and I quit them all. I currently have no private tracker accounts except rutracker.

These system want to economise bandwidth and space and leave them all idle.

The problem is your seed stays idle unless there actually is someone willing to download.

Did that, seedbox full, idle, near zero traffic for month, barely reach 1.0 ratio. Big waste of my resources.

Nobody downloading because they know they can’t seed their ratio back up.

Tracker operator sold ratio passes at 1$ per GB…

Anti-masturbation shaming and lawfare and the idea that you can blame all your problems on it is a mainstay of the religious right playbook.

They then hold the forever frustrated subject in a mental shame prison they can never escape but above which they can self righteously judge everyone else and feel they know the real reason why everything is messed up. A similar self sealing logic as the conspirationnists.

And it would be amazing to still have the senile cancerous old man over the demented lying sack of shit. But regardless pointing out the sycophantic double standards of his nasty idiotic supporters and theur never ending bad faith is a good reminder that western democracy has been deathly wounded by the corrupt elite and the intellectually lazy populace.
