ball hairs rolled up in bible papers
thank you nutsack
You are welcome
what
what tf are you on about?
I inadvertently quoted Starship Troopers (which I should download…) which seemingly poked one of nutsacks neurons wrong. My apologies
Thanks Captain 🫡
What’s your upload amount? Ratio isn’t vs the total size of the torrent, so this can happen if you remove a readd a torrent to the client for a file that’s already in the hard drive. Say you download 1kb of a 1gb file, but then upload 10mb you can get some insane ratios.
Most unfortunately overall statistics aren’t exported, the VM had been sitting active on a PC for a while before I turned it off for a few months and wiped it recently
I can say those top ratios were movies I had first acquired, and never had set a seed limit so I’m certain I’ve been seeding the entire file
Maybe like twenty years ago my Demonoid account had a glitch where it showed my download as a few bytes, regardless of how much I was actually downloading. The number definitely should have been way way higher. Every time I would log on the digits for my ratio would run off the side of the screen.
Thank you ❤️
It’s over nine thousand!
I can’t get over 0.00 most of the time because no one’s leeching 😭
Idk how I’m even supposed to get a good ratio
Same, but it’s because I am not connectable (CG-NAT).
But when they do leach you’ll be thanked.
A private tracker I use actually bases their ratios off the time you seed something for rather than the amount you seed. I use a seedbox, which means people are able to leech from me pretty much 100% of the time. Most of the stuff I’ve seeded so far is freeleech. Those three factors combined have given me about +10.0 on my ratio over the course of maybe a week. (I just recently joined it.)
I would imagine, and namely the reason I raise the sails again, content thats being migrated across different subscriptions will become a real hot token item
I have one tracker I am twice as long active with versus another one and I almst catched up the uploaded data with less torrents active. Sometimes I wonder if I am just not the primary target for that tracker or I just don’t like the popular stuff.
Autobrr set to download freeleech
I already have Sonarr/Radarr. Can I use Autobrr exclusively for downloading freeleech stuff?
Yes you can, it can either monitor RSS feeds exclusively, or also, for supported trackers, place a bot on their announce channel and instantly know when a new release is announced.
With that information it can do multiple things, feed it to *arrs which then decide if they want it, send it straight to your torrent client, with various filters, etc.
Download a popular movie and keep your computer on for a while 🤷♂️
Although, seeding stuff that isn’t popular is also important. I don’t know what you’re seeding but if no one is leeching maybe there aren’t a whole lot of other people seeding either. When someone does leech, they might be very happy that you’re there keeping that one torrent alive.
I was suddenly nostalgic for MythBusters again, and in my acquisition I found a couple seasons that have pretty low seeders. Will gladly be a forever seeder even if one person a year leaches
There’s a fanedit out there of the complete series Mythbusters with all of the flashbacks and filler removed. No more 5-minute long “before the break” segments.
Do you know the name of the fanedit? I’d like to check it out
You’re doing the Lord’s work, thank you for your service o7
Good trackers reward seeding old torrents
I have a Raspberry Pi with the *arr stuff and Jellyfin that’s seeding 24/7. I tried looking for popular stuff on the private trackers I’m on but they always have so many seeders in comparison to leechers that I don’t know if it would actually help or worsen my ratio.
You don’t even have to download the whole thing. Anything downloaded will be shared with other downloaders.
I build ratio on private trackers by getting as much freeleech stuff as I can, even though I might not be into it. Timing is key also, I’ll snatch anything I think will blow up. If you get in early you can get lots of upload. This worked great to get my initial ratio built up on what.cd and redacted.
What a guy!
Makes you cry…
Und I did.
this must be something I’m too usenet to understand
kidding of course, well done and thank you for your service
Actually if you would be so kind, what is the rundown of Usenet? I’ve searched a bit but been busy to really sit down on it, should I consider it being just a side thing (for now)?
Don’t bother. Just sign up for a Debrid service. It’s torrents but direct downloads, which means no needing to worry about seeding. It replaces your torrent client entirely.
Usenet is here to stay, it is similar as if you pay for vip in order to be able to leech without seeding. This makes automated pirating legal in some countries (like mine) since only doing direct downloads from your usenet provider. The usenet provider have servers which exchange bits of data with IDs similar like we do with torrenting. As a user, you now go to a indexer, who gives you a map, with which bits of data you can construct your file. So you then download each bit directly and put everything together and are rewarded with a normal file. Until now I have found every release which is also in predb using the private indexers I have.
I signed up for usenet recently but couldn’t really find anything worthwhile. How do you find good stuff?
Beside a Usenet provider, you also need to sign up with an “indexer”.
To compare a Usenet download with a download on the regular internet:
- Usenet = your internet provider (which enables you to connect to stuff)
- Indexer = search engine (helps you find the stuff)
NZBGeek is a good indexer.
Thank you very much, until I start getting thin on content from public trackers I think I’ll stick to torrents, especially if the bar of entry is lower, I’m in a good situation to seed so I might as well bring that to others
I am curious over the legality, is it in a way that the provider is storing the whole file just obfuscated? My (rather poor) understanding is that torrents work because the file pieces are distributed
In some countries, like Switzerland for example, it is legal to download, but illegal to upload content that is copyright protected. So if you want pirate legally, you ether only leech public torrents, buy vip leech pass on private tracker or simply turn to usenet.
I think it is that way, so that a consumer getting something from someone (free or paid) can not get in trouble for accepting, since how should the consumer know it is a pirated copy (I think the law was written prior digital age). But the one offering can get in trouble, since that person is more likely to know that it is a pirated copy. There is even an exception, which allows you to share your pirated copy with close friends. You can not even get in trouble if you rent stuff, copy it and give the original back after.
Laws written before the digital age regulating digital age things are the best.
Feels like a good part of the reason for Usenet to begin, I would like to try but I feel some bit obliged to provide for as long as I’m able. Thanks for your rundown, internationally differing laws are confusing
Any Usenet providers and indexers you’d recommend? I tried it a few months ago but couldn’t quite wrap my head around how to use it. (I’m technically literate, but Usenet was completely foreign to me until a few months ago.)
I fear that it is not allowed here, but there are cats, dogs and slugs which are very good as well as one with a name similar to matrix. Then there are the ones with NZB in the name and some are just drunken.
Its pay to pirate.
Fight club rules. Yeah, I’m old school
Nice!
My highest isn’t nearly that large - Dark souls remastered at 1143 ratio.
Kudos ☠️☠️☠️
Insane, my highest is around 100 ratio.
Sir, are you the Pirate Bay? I feel like you’re single-handedly keeping a tracker alive.
you store all that in the Homework folder?
Ahem thats a Proxmox powered homework folder to you
It’s the bare minimum if you care about your homework and Linux ISOs
I think you’re doing my part too
please excuse my stupidity but what does this mean? i know it’s something with torrenting but i don’t know what exactly
They have really high seeding ratios.
0.5 would mean they uploaded half the filesize. 1 means whole filesize. 2 means twice. You get the idea.
