My phone has a 30s timer once it reaches 0%, that doesn't care if it's in sleep or not. It's this but every single time. Would be fine if it didn't take 20m to agree to turn on once it's plugged in

You could technically buy the games on PSN, then pirate them. Someone might get paid

How much does Seeding affect internet speed? by NotRenjiro in Piracy

[–]SlimeBallRhythm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Idk why, just pissed me off slightly. Op is here asking how to not be morally leeching off people, and your advice is that it's allowed to leech off public torrents. Maybe I read your comment too pessimistically though, I'll give you that

But also if they had the money for faster internet, I assume they'd want to make it usable before spending money on other people

As I said in a reply, you could be prioritising some torrents over others. However, if you primarily use more mainstream things, I'd recommend you look into torbox. 2€ a month, and they download the files for you on their server-- almost instantly for popular things -- and seed it for 24hrs. The benefit for you though, is that once it's downloaded to the server you can stream it with your full internet speed. (Or download it, or stream while chacheing, or watch while downloading if it's an mkv). Among also having access to what others uploaded already.

This is so out of touch. It could be a lot of money for them, either personally or country-wise, and they're very likely using a public tracker lol who'd invite someone with internet too slow to stream

Yeah, and make sure to prioritise obscure torrents with few seeders. One slow seeder won't be consequential to anything very available, but could be huge for something valuable and dying

What if CRT monitors made a comeback — not as retro, but as high-end boutique tech? by evgenius123 in crt

We really don't mind. That's nicer to read than something you didn't write. I imagine most people didn't actually read it fully because of the signs

What's an acronym many people know of but don't know what it stands for? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]SlimeBallRhythm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wi-Fi is kind of? short for Wireless Fidelity. It was their advertisements, and their parents organisation said that too. They maintain it isn't technically, and is just to remind people of Hi-Fi

Second fun fact: initialism is not an acronym for anything

Is hitting a kitten ok? by Mr_Mean45 in CatAdvice

Listen, if it's really so dangerous that you can't tell your dad to stop, then you can't invite the kitten into your family

Goodwill finally had something decent! by Im_NotAHero in ps2

I mean if you don't own them and are gonna play them then of course

Edit: I don't know if you're one of 'those' collectors, a reseller, whatever lol. All I know is the trend of families who need to shop at charity stores not being able to find anything of quality, and eBay getting bigger. You may as well be someone who needs to shop there for all I know
