I finally uploaded a whole terabyte in a single session. I'm a super seeder!

And here are my qBittorrent stats. I left my computer running for 6 days, I never thought I’d get this far! But that electricity bill’s gonna sting…

It’s good to give back to the community.

EDIT: To any three-letter agencies who might be reading this post, I was uploading Linux ISOs and scientific research papers. I would never dream of uploading copyrighted material…

Damage,

I left my computer running for 6 days, I never thought I’d get this far! But that electricity bill’s gonna sting…

A Raspberry Pi with an USB drive should use no more than 20W of power, if you want to further your endeavors.

Tja,

Even the newest Pis use around 2W on idle (which seeding torrents basically is). I’d say the whole setup would be under 10W, or under 5W if the disk is 2.5".

First of all, thank you very much for your service.

Secondly, you’re crazy lmao

A_Very_Big_Fan,

How does your ISP not molotov your house for this lol

Tja,

Probably because the ISP is getting paid

Scrollone,

I don’t know about your country, but in mine the download and upload of home connections are both unlimited

I might dislike my natal country for many aspects (Mexico) but oh boy, it’s unlimited home Internet connection and 0 fucks given about torrentig aren’t certainly those.

bjorney,

scientific research papers

When JSTOR comes knocking you are going to wish it was the MPAA instead

derpgon,

Good on you seeding useful stuff. Last time I had to get my ratio up on a private tracker I had to seed download 50GB and seed close to 1TB of granny porn.

I liked everyone’s faces, when they asked where I got such a good ratio, that is was all granny porn lol.

I feel like you shouldn’t be advertising online that you’re uploading large quantities of pirated media? Just kinda seems like common sense? Some of you guys are very trusting lol.

chipt4,

Do you really think someone out there is going to see a random post where a guy says he has uploaded a bunch of… something and decide to try to investigate to find out what?

That’s not how it works. Even if he had included actual torrent names in the screenshot, the chances of someone caring enough to pursue it are infinitesimal.

Hey, I clearly stated that I was uploading Linux ISOs and research papers! I never said anything about pirated media!

spoilerIn all seriousness though, in hindsight I probably should have used an alt account to post this. If my home instance becomes compromised, I could end up in hot water…

Aww yiss hot tub stream

Michal,

It doesn’t say anywhere that he’s seeding pirated media. Seeding is not illegal.

All I see is a fellow ISO 8601 enjoyer (for dates). Edit: sadly not for time. Filthy AM/PM enjoyer 😅

It always made sense to me, because when you create folders for your backups, it will always get sorted chronologically.

Jivebunny, (edited )
@Jivebunny@lemmy.world avatar

Yes, that and for most databases as well, easy sorting shit no extra rules or frameworks to make it make sense to the computer.

archomrade,

OK but wait shouldn’t that emoji be named ‘sickle and vibe’ instead of ‘hammer and vibe’?

Imgonnatrythis,

Sorry to hear your dreams are limited.

I’d never imagine doing that in Egypt lol. We don’t have unlimited fiber/adsl. the datacap we pay for is 250gb for about $5
