If the torrenting is moved entirely within Tor, and pirates hosted Relays alongside their seedboxes, then we would have the bandwidth to sustain it and not be constrained by the exit relays.

Hosting videogames on a dedicated box for me and the boys when I was 16 got me more interested in networking and when I had finished my mostly unrelated education, I pivoted hard to IT. I don’t currently work in IT and I don’t know if I ever will again because my handicap and location make it hard to find jobs but essentially:
Self-hosting came first, then came the tech ‘background’.
feralhosting.com gives you a full unix user in your own little jail if that’s your thing. They are for seedboxes, but you can do anything you want with your 1 vcore and unmetered 10gbps.
I think last.fm is generally pretty good at recommending me stuff.
e does not improve your freedom and open source is not necessarily free.
Wube has encouraged people to pirate their game over buying key-resellers like G2A. G2A was such a legal pain in their ass for a period that they would rather you just pirate the game (being Factorio).
That still wouldn’t get past your firewall
All of my services run on LXC containers. Some files and configs are backed up to NAS and offsite. The containers are snapshotted in their entirety before I do any work on them. A snapshot takes 5 seconds to make and causes no downtime. If I regret a change or mess it up, I can restore the snapshot in under a minute at the cost of some seconds of downtime.
My only non-container machines are my desktop (doesn’t count), my NAS and the Hypervisor. The Hypervisor is very clean and wouldn’t be much fuss to reinstall and the NAS is literally just Debian with NFS. All of these have a regular rsync which runs to backup the important files.
By having it be a container
First of all, thanks for pretending you know me. That’s cool.
Second, I’ve been buying on bandcamp up until Epic bought it. I have principles and one of those is that I don’t support Epic.
I kind of miss Unity in the same way I miss Windows XP; I would never use it now but it has a place in my heart.
Maybe I’ll start buying music again
I’ve been “on” linux for a decade and even ran it on my desktop without dualbooting for months at a time back in the Ubuntu 16 days. A few months ago I’d had enough of the Microsoftisms and installed straight Debian with i3wm on my desktop with intentions of dualbooting Windows for the rare graphical work I do. Maybe once a month. I managed to boot that thing 8 times, none without issues, before it finally stopped booting alltogether and I spent 14 hours yesterday trying to reinstall it to no success. It would commit suicide on second boot consistently and I said well dog darnit then. I guess I have to bite this bullet and learn how to do my graphical workflow on Linux.
Honestly, I should have done that sooner. I’m now Adobe and Windows free and I have literally no reason to go back. There’s nothing I need or miss. All my games work (thanks valve) and all my creative tools are here in some capacity. There aren’t many bugs I encounter daily in i3wm, and none are showstoppers.
Shoutout to Blender for being superior to industry standards, and Darktable for being good enough.
Or they see the writing on the wall
Well, obviously they don’t want you to!
You sound like you have zero costumer contact, thank god
we are not obliged to accept it here.
He wasn’t obligated to respond at all. He choose to be unchill. He wasn’t even the person they replied to, and neither are you the person I replied to. Seems to me like you guys just wanna complain!
bro chill
Subsonic is also a protocol (and opensubsonic) which supports many other clients, if you want. Personally my music collection is just hosted on gonic, a server-only subsonic implementation and I stream it to whatever clients I want.
one guy at google is obstructing
Why is it always one guy at Google? Same with JPEG XL in Chromium
Cheaters are a solved problem, in my opinion. It used to be that people hosted servers- moderating and managing their own communities. The industry went away from that in pursuit of cosmetics and control. There aren’t cheaters on well managed community servers in Valve games, but cheaters run rampant in matchmaking in those same games.
