I'll start. Did you know you can run a headless version of JD2 on a raspberry pi? It's not the greatest thing in the world, but sometimes its nice to throw a bunch of links in there and go to sleep.

Get into private trackers if you can and then you won't have to worry much about any of this.

i've been pirating things for ~15 years and still don't understand private trackers

What's the confusion? They're just like public ones, but pristinely organized, extremely well seeded, and you're less likely to get a letter from your ISP for torrenting with them.

Yea, but you don't need one with a private tracker.

Ah, you just need to pass an interview for many, which involves doing some reading and waiting in an irc channel

I can find just about anything I want through public trackers or DDL sites, so I haven't bothered to look into them.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

yeah pretty much. but the 5-10% I never found would be nice to look for again

Same, being elitist about who you share japanese cartoons or whatever with just seems weird.
