Die Killerspieldebatte wurde hierzulande auch noch in den frühen 2000ern geführt. Va. nach dem Amoklauf in Erfurt ist sie (mal wieder) aufgeflammt.

Hab gerade erst CSGO gelesen, aber den Kommentar generell zu CS geschrieben. Aber ja, die Killerspieldebatte ist seit Anfang der 2010er nur noch alle paar Jahre für einen Tag ein Thema.

Künftig soll der Besitz von 25 Gramm Cannabis im öffentlichen Raum erlaubt sein. Das macht es unmöglich für die Polizei, Konsumenten von Dealern zu unterscheiden.

Es war davor und jetzt nicht möglich, einen Dealer an der geringen Menge an Cannabis zu erkennen.

Mal habe ich ein paar Gramm dabei, ein anderes Mal etwas mehr (z.B. auf dem Weg in den Urlaub).

Ob er Tüten und eine Feingrammwaage dabei hat, ist viel aussagekräftiger.

I [...] Always care to have a VPN (Mullvad and Proton) active and also integrate it as an interface in BitTorrent.

If you set your torrent client to only use the VPN network interface, it's much more likely to be CGNAT. In other words it's been some other customer.

If you still use BitTorrent, I'd recommend switching to qBittorrent. The former is outdated and ridden with ads compared to the more performant qBittorrent.

Most trackers provide points for seeding torrents. Usually the amount of points depends on the size and the amount of torrents.

These points can be exchanged for "upload" (or other things like an invite), which helps with increasing the ratio.

Given there's seperate front end and backend code, does this mean it's possible to write an alternative front end for Arcadia?

As for your design, I like it! It looks like a more modern gazelle-like interface at first glance.

Below is the thread of german torrent trackers. Part of the table is cut off on mobile so I recommend switching to desktop site.

I suggest trying to enter Immortuos, TNTracker, and RocketHD. Seedpool is great for 0-day German scene content, but it's an international tracker.

IM is worth a try but they need proofs and will likely tell you to wait a few months for more assccount age (e.g. minimum half a year or so).

TNT is easy to get an invite for, if your somewhat active in a community where you know people are on TNT.

AnimeWorld is the best for anime and typically does open sign ups around new year.

RocketHD is an upcoming tracker which is better than the stats suggest. Also it's improving quickly with an active community. It's the only German tracker with an invite path (through MAM).

TS is the best. But unless you've been active for years with great (!) (international) proofs it's impossible to get into.

Edit: If you're in Germany you must bind your torrent client to your VPN. Else it'll be an expensive lesson.

  • epub is the best ebook format. Use Calibre to convert to it from e.g. azw3 (Amazon)
  • m4b > mp3. The former is better suited for audio books.
  • archive.org for archiving websites

Upsi stimmt, 1860 hatte ich gar nicht auf dem Schirm ;-)

Ich denke es gibt viele Fans, die beim lokalen Verein sind, weil er eben lokal ist. Welchen Verein sollen die Münchner den sonst unterstützen, ohne umzuziehen?

Letztendlich ist Fußball insgesamt extrem kommerziell, d.h. mMn. aber nicht, dass man deshalb Fußball nicht toll finden kann. Kritik von innen kann mehr Einfluss haben, als von außen.

BitTorrent v2 allows for per file hashing, which makes it easier to merge swarms. This could be used to keep individual episodes alive without splitting seeders between season pack and individual episodes.

But given how many tracker staff want to continue doing what they've always done, I don't think it's big enough of an advantage for them to allow v2.

Just wanted to point out that downloading is no longer a grey area since an EU ruling a couple of years ago. Streaming as well as downloading from unauthorized sources is plainly illegal - you're right about it being very unlikely to be prosecuted for it.

The one and only a absolutely necessary precaution is preventing your torrent client from accessing the internet when the VPN is not running.
This must be done by binding your torrent client to your VPN network interface. [1]
A "VPN Kill Switch" or similar is not enough to prevent your IP from leaking to law firms.

It's also a good idea to use a reputable VPN company like AirVPN, ProtonVPN or Njalla VPN.

I'm also german and I've been using torrents for years, so this definitely works well for me. A friend of mine's brother received an "Abmahnung" from a law firm, as well as a more distant person ended up paying around 1000€. I feel like almost any german somehow heard of people getting letters.

COSMIC’s Alpha 2 release builds upon that work with functionality built out for Files, additional Settings pages, considerable infrastructure work for screen reader support+, and some highly requested window management features. System76 is ecstatic at the level of excitement and collaboration so far with alpha testers and early app & applet developers, and we look forward to seeing what comes from these new additions.

...

The second COSMIC alpha will be released on September 26th. Those participating in Alpha 1 on Pop!_OS can simply update through the COSMIC App Store to transition. This alpha will be followed by monthly alpha releases until all core features have been built out.
