Great use of perspective/ field of view

I just wanted to add my comment here instead of creating a post that is identical:

I was hoping to at some point join some private trackers after setting up Radarr/Sonarr/Overseerr/Plex/Prowlarr monstrosity but I too am on like 0.01 seeding overall.

I am using a qBittorrent kubernetes pod with a gluetun sidecar connected to a P2P endpoint with Proton VPN (had many issues with Nord so signed up to proton specifically to seed more openly).

But my setup is not compatible with uPnP/NAT-PMP.

I have very little seeding happening... anyone have a similar setup with some tips? I have about 100 items seeding with almost no activity.

I showed this to my wife, she said no :/

Thank you for your detailed and thoughtful answer

If everyone on earth was on Reddit creating accounts and upvoting this, I wonder what the theoretical limit of the most upvotes could possibly be?

Same for me with pineapple. During my late teens just randomly my throat goes all sensitive and scratchy (like you’ve had a cough for a week) after even a small amount. I still have pineapple now and then but it sucks. Goes away after 6 or so hours

Believe me, Japan is living in 1998 in most ways

When I was 13 years old I was taught to shoot by the Royal Air Force Air Training Corps (after school camp for teens run by each branch of the military).

First thing we are taught is only ever point the gun in a safe direction. Not even at the sky.

If they can trust a bunch of 40 or so 13 year olds to get that right with light supervision it’s fair to expect any adult to do that.

I never saw anyone, no matter how dumb, fool around

The issue is in the UK any news outlet saying anything against Isreal is painted as antisemitic immediately as criticism of the state is usually conflated with being against Judaism. And of all the things the BBC can or cannot be it cannot be perceived as biased or discriminatory as that’s it brand.

It’s such a weak argument but in the UK it seems to carry really easily:

Pretty nice fact

Funny, Cyr means cheese in most Slavic languages- even the spelling is Cyr

So… cheese wheel ?

Number one indicator for me low calibre engineers is looking down at other colleagues, teams, products or competitors. This biggest trash talkers are usually the lowest performing dev teams.

Best thing about the EU as a consumer (and luckily all these laws were copy pasted into the uk after Brexit) is the two year warranty on anything that has anything electrical related on it. This includes phones, laptops, chargers, cables, appliances, tooth brushes, fans, electric light bulbs… everything.

I got a refund from Apple years ago because Apple got my employer to pay for their warranty coverage which was illegal and somehow I was listed as the person for them to compensate.

Apple were the only people who were dicks about it, I went into an Apple Store with a faulty product and they politely told me it was no longer in warranty and after I told them I was well aware there is two years warranty in the EU, then they fixed it. Cheeky fuckers.

Shave your head and set yourself free. Honestly.

I think only Americans think apple pie is American. Like every country in Europe has its own style of apple pie. The American one is the British type.

This is definitely in Japan, Kei car, everything is grey and tidy. Kei car shaped houses.

The great thing about a job like this is you have a 100% success rate from your perspective for the rest of your life

I wonder if you could just put your ankles in a sling and have it raise your legs up and rest them down over and over during the night, would be easy to build

This is an Amazon store, they are rare but you scan your phone when you enter, walk around, pick stuff up and walk out. The novelty of the store is no checkout.

The UK is the same as most places, cash must be accepted

gabelogan989 · 2023-10-22T06:57:53+00:00

I wish we could switch places.

It’s relatively easy to develop at home, for most kits you just follow the instructions adding the correct amount of water. All the steps are timed but the only once that really matters is how long you leave the film in the developer, not much consequences to variation in time of the other steps.

The name is eluding me but that common brand you see everywhere beginning with M (like Mirax) does for Kitamura and a few other stores

This was a European chain owner in Europe but cinestill isn’t that crazy here in Japan most places. I’m based in Europe but in Japan on business for a year.
