Should be standard operating procedure anyway...

Thanks for that, worth knowing.

True, but OP refers to 'some cherished items'

I assumed the context here was torrenting rather than streaming, download blu-ray remuxes and encode to your liking.

A 16Tb manufacturer recertified drive is USD160 which should sort storage (and later get a second for offline backup). I'm actually holding out until I get GPU encode (apparently CPU is somewhat better, but power considerations, maybe next gen). Do wish the scene would get on with switching, though, are we dinosaurs?

No idea, I was just using it to illustrate the existence of compromised exit nodes, which to my mind are a pretty fatal flaw in TOR, perhaps someone knowledgeable can chime in.

Compromised ? Maybe, but this guy doesn't provide any evidence one way or the other. He's using at least 7 other possible vectors (apparently Calculator Photo Vault just hides the gallery, no encryption, so it's over right there) which is way too many for good opsec.

With Tor the question has always been compromised exit nodes as I understand it.

Absitively, use case here IMO is set and forget autoupdate to stay current and SELinux (which actually reduces surface)

K, I asked for that apparently, well played...

Was talking github stars though.

Learn to read code (git gud) /s but it's the only way to be sure (nuke from orbit)

Or, look at the stars...

 

Seems very interesting, pr burble aside. Wonder how close this is to a micro-sonogram if generalised ? Star Trek medical tricorder component material by my reckoning.

 

Wanting to torrent in a country other than my own, I've been exiting via Singapore as it has the most direct path I believe. Any reason not to ? Any superior choices for whatever reason ? Couldn't find this discussed anywhere. TIA.

I'm one of those oddballs who's never joined, but I'm in the market for a new to me bike, and it seems like all the action is on marketplace. Am I screwed, or is there an effective workaround ?

Edit: Not US. There are local alternatives that I know about, but they are worse, please answer question as asked ! Basically I'm thinking of alternative software ala FreeTube, or a way of spoofing facebook to make a dummy account only to be used for this and if so what precautions to take...

 

Something I find fascinating is that being consistent (and trustworthy) is less effective than being 80/20% consistent (classical vs operant conditioning) at training dogs where there are contextual/environmental cues at play. It's personally counter-intuitive, but I've seen it work and am convinced (I attribute it to evolutionary mechanisms, my goto in biology).

I'm wondering what other psychology as a science results have solid statistics behind them that I'm unaware of (I'm compsci with a physics/maths background, so it's probably most), and are interesting...

 

How does this play for you ? I identify as spectrum, what used to be Asperger's, and have to work really hard to get to visual phantasia, but I can. Also worked hard to remove aural phantasia? via meditation because of negative self talk. Do you see 'aphant' as a useful designation? Thoughts, Ideas?

 

A report critical of Australian generals’ leadership in Afghanistan was given to the Defence Minister Richard Marles in November 2023, but was not published until after the McBride sentencing. Stuart McCarthy on a travesty of justice.

 

This needs (IMO) more attention, seems to fit here...
