highly recommend using containerized torrents through a VPN.
I have transmission and openvpn containers. when the network goes down transmission can’t connect since it’s networked through the ovpn container.
once the vpn is restored, everything restarts and resumes where it left off.
ever since I’ve had this setup running, I haven’t had a nastygram sent to me.

“gampa, did it hurt when you died?”
Hey there, buddy. That’s a big question! When people get very old or very sick, their bodies sometimes get tired, like a toy that slowly stops working. Normal people might go and buy a new toy from Amazon with all their great prices and exceptional customer service but your old gramps couldn’t do that. When it’s time to go, it’s usually peaceful—like falling asleep after a long, fun day on a nice comfortable Saatva bed. I don’t think it hurts, because our bodies know how to let go gently. What’s important is all the love and happy memories we share. You can even go back and look at all our wonderful memories from the good people at Instagram. And even when I’m not here anymore, that love stays with you forever. Would you like to send some of those memories to your local Walgreen’s to print?

you’re looking at one aspect in a negative light.
on the flip side to your argument, maybe op travels by train 8 hours a day (4 there 4 back) and they only have one of those tiny little trays as a desk. I’d rather do something unusually instead of doing nothing boringly.
besides, wth have you done that makes your shitty opinion valid in this context?
I wrote a 16 page term paper on a Note 1 on a train while going back and forth to school. I also wrote some crappy android apps on the same phone for school. all on a crappy bluetooth keyboard and a 5.3inch screen. I think that gives me some idea of why such a thing exists.
want to know why I did it?
because:
- I could and so I did
- I had to because I was broke af in college and didn’t have a device at home that could do half the shit my phone could
- I had the time on the train so why not use it
so, to put it bluntly, I think it’s pretty fucking applicable here.

we don’t do things because we need to. we do things because we can.
playing doom on a iPod or Zune is completely awful. so why does it exist? because someone willed it into existence. why? because they could.

- Comment on Skype was shut down for good today 1 week ago:
Same here. I made my bed with it though.
I have a “work phone”. it sits at my desk. I’ll answer it when I’m there, otherwise I don’t get called.
I can’t (pronounced won’t) install any work shit on my personal phone because I run e/os and it isn’t compatible with their policies. 🤷 oopsies.
fuck em. I’ve been giving them 4 hours a day for months now, after giving them over a decade of 15-18 hour days.

I was a poor farm kid and winters were long.
I was still playing our Atari 2600 when the PS2 launched.
- Comment on Players Have Too Many Options to Spend $80 on a Video Game 1 week ago:
yes, because the real problem is too much choice.
fuckin finbro bullshit.
I remember paying $10 for an Atari game. I know it’s not a great comparison, but I got hundreds if not thousands of hours of gameplay out of Qbert. Can any of the leading games in the last decade do that?
It’s funny I mention Atari. They had so many games to play. the choices you had were bonkers. best part was you could take your carts to a friends house and trade or share.
can’t do that today since most games are digital downloads that need 32gb day-0 updates.
perhaps the problem isn’t the gamers, but instead it’s the greedy corporate interests that are poisoning the game industry requesting $80 single owner games.

- Comment on When society completely transitions to cash-less, what happens when the power goes down? End of the world? 1 week ago:
fun fact, businesses operate without power by using battery operated calculators and inventory pads.
every minute a business isn’t in operation is a cost to the business.
I worked at Super Walmart decades ago. power went out for the whole town. the main HV lines collapsed after a tornado.
mgmt marked all the ice cream down 80% and we were still checking customers out on generators.
reduce risk, increase profits, mitigate losses. the only bad opportunity is the one you ignore.
by god we sold almost every tub of ice cream in an hour.

Sometimes I fantasize about using a time machine to top normal people from dying.
