I think the implication is that Mango making the US no longer a secular power facilitated this.

Thanks

Errmmm, dateline Dec 10th 2024 - you’re a little behind the curve here

Users aren’t likely to point out a bot when the rules explicitly prevent them from doing that.

In fact one user commented that he had his comment calling out one of the bots as a bot deleted by mods for breaking that rule

The moment an authoritarian party gets into power the Governor/Queen can and has previously booted the ruling Government out. (See Prime Minister Menzies controversy)

Could you expand on that please ? I assume you’re not referencing Gough Whitlam’s dismissal by the GG at the behest of the CIA ?

I’ve had a quick search and can’t find anything pointing to conflict between Menzies and the Crown, nor anything suggesting the monarch or the GG booted him out. Could be a searching failure on my part of course so info appreciated

Given it looks like you’re the only seed (and a quick check on lime torrents only has 1 seed for the new normal s01 ep 1-22 (I assume that’s the above ?) then yeah, you’re the only one fighting the good fight ! Don’t stop :-D

EDIT

Bollocks to bad search techniques - it seems there’s about 4000 seeders for multiple different copies of it (the above version does indeed only have one though). I just thought “sod it, if there’s only 1 seeder I’ll help out”. Went and looked again <sigh> Help not needed.

There is not always demand, you need to leave the torrent app running in the background when ever you have the PC on - then when someone wants it you’ll get a connection.

You may wish to reword. The unspecified “they” reads like you think Meta have strict ethical rules. Lol.

Meta have no ethics whatsoever, and yes I assume you meant universities have strict rules however the approval of this study marks even that as questionable

While that is indeed what was reported, we and the researchers will never know if the posters with shifted opinions were human or in fact also AI bots.

The whole thing is dodgy for lack of controls, this isn’t science it’s marketing

What in hell is an “assault pistol” please ?

I think we all stopped charging the enemy waving a pistol during WW1 didnt we ? This feels like something from a Blackadder episode.

It’s referenced in the newsweek article. I read the wiki which says Hawaii have defined it, but the wiki links dont actually go to a definition.

The vast majority of pistols sold are semi auto, and they all have a pistol grip which, as I understand it are 2 of the main characteristics used to define assault weapon in the US

Confused foreigner.

to the left

yet still barely over the left centre part of the political spectrum

Yeah, I chuckled at that. Labor is centrist with MPs soft right and soft left around the centre. The Greens are left but they lost 2 seats.

Transformers earthspark for one off the top of my head - my upload ratio is triple digits but there’s never more than single digit seeders

Yes absolutely, keeping your trackers up to date is important, they do expire

for example

will give you an up to date list of live trackers to replace the dead ones with

You’ve had a good answer by letstakealook, but just to expand on one point, you need to leave your torrent application (qbittorrent or whatever) running in the background for an extended period. If you close the app and don’t load it again after you’ve got the download then you’re not seeding - seeding means to share it to others after you’ve finished downloading

You can seed without port forwarding, it just means the other side needs to have it.

Just keep your torrent client running and people will connect

That’s not only quite defeatist it’s not really true. Everything can be reverse engineered, obviously in some cases it’s not economical, but John Deere tractors and their obnoxious lockdowns are a classic case of where this leads to genuine value for people. JD robbing the farmers of the ability to perform simple repairs and charging huge bucks to do them ends up with costs on your grocery bill. This bill doesn’t directly impact that I don’t believe but it’s the simplest clearest example of why this is important.

This is brilliant news - we’re all better off for it.

Great news. About time something good happened politically.

Nice, glad it worked for you

Here’s a pastebin of the magnet links (4 of) as per below msg

https://pastebin.com/kEaEqMcu

deleted by pastebin

I got them off 1337x.to back about a year ago, but as I just found out when I went and searched they no longer have it indexed (presumably too long at 0)

I tried to DM the magnet link to someone who DM’d but for some reason that didn’t work. Happy to share the links if that is useful
