Heh, I stole it from the old days of Internet yore. Take, and enjoy.

… Can I sign up for your newsletter?

Expand into gigantic cruisers. Make repair a mission? Have to start cutting into derelict, including alien, remove damage, bodge, transplant…

Get em going enough to find the next rig… Rogue like? Refit discovered, take over, find the next, fix up for trade, cut down for scrap etc.

I’m all about options in this arena. Ship breaker is ripe with good options here.

There’s flags set in the torrent tracker that might be getting in the way here in combination with the port issue.

There might be a seed, but he can’t forward ports.

The data getting updated from “last seen” is the tracker telling your client a check in happened from a seeder I believe.

Some trackers also won’t play nice and tell the seeder about you properly if your client has a history of leeching perhaps. Enforcement of ratio etc.

You could try another client perhaps, but if multiple behave the same then you are not going to get anywhere. Perhaps try getting a temporary vps to torrent into and then pull from there. Seed boxes can solve many issues, just be mindful of cost over time.

You assume cops require a crime to have been committed before taking you…

Happy birthday to the darkness!

If you can get in, Torrentleech has some items:

Adobe Zii 2021 6.0.5.zip

Its also included in Photoshop etc there.

If you have access to any private torrent trackers, if they don’t have it, you might be able to get an invite from someone on those.

This guy torments.

Seriously though, if you are cautious and stick to actual communities instead of just public or private trackers run for glam, you will usually be fine. Communities clamp down really fast if there’s a report of virus etc.

The quality of releases typically is far better, since uploading crap like virus or video covered in ads is a dick move™️

Some yes, but some no. A few I’ve been on are downright absurd in how most of the things are free.

I agree about not having to pay etc too.

I suspect I’ve just gotten lucky but several of the trackers I’ve found are easy to just let the ARRs do their thing.

Conglomerated with DarkStar Industries and featured through Pegged Productions

February: Best review possible, got a raise and bonus.

June: Laid off after 17 years at the company, to maximize profit.

Capitalism is balls.

Places that buy other companies to dismantle or lay off large chunks of staff and take over IP with minimal or absent quality to show from it. Just maximize that investor dollar.

Microsoft, Disney etc.

The harm performed far outweighs any investment from a “toward the artists” I see come back.

or even a group that funded it

I noted I’m ok with investors.

I’m against parasitic groups that feed on properties and prevent money getting to the actual dev folks.

Hey man, you can’t park that here

Ditto on Spotify. I have big love for piracy of FLAC for my personal music server, but I also have a decent rack filled with physical offerings from my favorite bands.

My Bandcamp collection is also getting up there, since a few of my favs say they are treated well there, and it’s FLAC friendly as well.

Physical media or merch directly from the band is absolutely the way to go every time if possible.

Cool argument, except a huge quantity of pirated works aren’t “owned” by the creator or even a group that funded it, but instead by parasitic companies that abuse capitalistic tools to actually steal value from those creators.

I have thousands of purchased games. 3 categories here:

1: obtained as part of a pack (humble gog etc)

2: purchased AFTER trying out via pirate copy to know if it is my kind of thing

3: picked up early access due to demo or general interest from being a known smaller dev/studio (hare brained for example)

With less and less access to shareware and viable demos, piracy is often the only conduit to prevent me getting ripped off of $80 for something that looks like a shiny sports car but end up being another “buy $800 in dlc for the full story!” Ford pinto.

Additionally, I now flat refuse to fund the likes of Denuvo, and wish that piracy actively hurt the bottom line of companies deploying that kind of anti-user shit.

Not with THAT attitude you won’t!

How long until he’s pardoned and made a white house official?

I hope that didn’t come across as attacking. It’s frustrating how much pet stores present incorrectly and it ticks me off.

For what it’s worth, proper food etc pays off with these guys. According to some of the chain markets near me (PetSmart and Petco) they can live up to 15 years.

I have 2 that are 19 and 20.

i appreciate the candor.
