Torrenting on the TOR network is actively discouraged. It uses a lot of bandwidth, and it hurts other people’s speeds.

If you want to torrent on an anonymous network, use I2P. It may be harder to set up than TOR, but you can torrent entirely inside it. It has trackers inside, and a lot of clearnet torrents have also been listed on them. And most importantly, I2P is more prepared for torrenting than TOR is. When you connect to it, you add capacity to the network, so using bandwidth for torrenting is not as detrimental to it.

I torrent without VPN in the EU. I’ve been doing so for years. Still no letters as of writing this comment.

My Samsung microwave works just fine and has been doing so for the last twenty years

It is true, and I’ve seen it myself. At first I refused to believe, but sadly we’re already at that state.

There’s FinAmp for jellyfin. There’s also support for LiveTV and I wouldn’t be surprised if there was at least a plugin for IPTV.

You can’t just fork a browser engine. You need a lot of resources to keep one alive. The only browser engine that I know of which was successfully forked was goanna. And that’s a gecko fork from when it wasn’t even multithreaded, and it still took years.

So, it depends on google

Brave is google

Usually autocorrect accuracy is directly proportional to info stealing by the keyboard. Google’s autocorrect is so good because it’s constantly phoning home with what people write so they can improve their model.

I use a keyboard with no autocorrect (Unexpected Keyboard), and, although it took a while to get used to it, I got used to typing fast and mostly accurately after some time using it. You can also get used to your autocorrect’s quirks, and you’ll find that you will type faster with it.

Brave is chrome

Vivaldi is google

I’m surprised nobody mentioned “All I Want For Christmas Is You” yet

Youtube Music ReVanced should be good, it’s the legacy of Youtube Music Vanced, which has served me well for years, even after its takedown.

Protests are not made for other people to join, protests are made to show the government/ruling class that the workers are angry and how much harm they could do to their business. People joining in and becoming interested in the fight is a nice side effect.

Can you elaborate a bit more? I don’t seem to understand what you mean.

Protests are only good if they’re annoying. They’re meant to be annoying. They’re meant to make other people notice, to stop traffic, to cause delays and ideally an economic hit to the city. If nobody felt the protest, how do you expect it to have an effect?

Probably years, if not more. XKCD’s “What If?” has a nice explanation on a similar question, but in that case it was a portal at the bottom of the mariana trench and the question was about draining the oceans. The answer is that you probably wouldn’t notice in all your lifetime.

If you torrent media, you should keep it at least until you have a positive ratio. Torrenting is a group effort, and every time someone has a negative ratio, someone else needs to overcompensate for it. If you don’t keep your ratios, you’re also making the torrent die, which is bad for media preservation.

Yeah I know I should, and it’s on my list, but I haven’t changed it yet lol. I’m making it work like this and if I can stretch it until they replace it for a more capable model, that’s money that I don’t have to spend on it.

They may be
