You’re going to be opening that package often over a short period. I don’t think it’s useful to tie it down too tightly, and i especially don’t think it’s useful to introduce accessories (clip, bottle hack), you’ll have to deal with them every single time you open the bag.

It’s also just a fucking bread bag, you don’t need to secure it so firmly.

Twist and tuck or just tucking, maybe tying a knot if it’s going to get jostled a bit (going camping)

I found this thread: I’ve made a full archive of Yuzu

Yeah, the way that i would do it is to look up the Wikipedia page for the movie Heat and go to the cast section.

This is how i always look for information and it can actually be to my detriment. Like that time i went to Reddit to ask them what that movie was where time is a currency, and somebody pointed out that i could have just googled “time is money movie” and it would have immediately shown me In Time (2011).

Also, when i want something from an app or website i will consult the alphabetical list or look for a link to click, instead of just using the search bar.

I don’t know, somehow it never entered my brain that search bars are smart and can figure out what you meant if you use natural language. Even though they’ve been programmed that way since before i was born

I don’t think ideas are the problem, it’s that new forms of distribution are causing the industry to panic. Producers are making safer bets (sequels, remakes, franchises) so original ideas, which tons of people have, aren’t getting funded.

Also worth noting that producers these days are less Hollywood and more Wall Street, they don’t really understand movies so they make calls based on numbers and precedent that let them estimate profitability.

Yeah i’ll run out of space one day, but the more popular movies will be the first to go because i know i can get them again.

Still plenty of chance for someone to seize my lonely booty

No, it’s movies, and it’s largely smaller lower-quality RARBG releases. They used to have a range of qualities available and the middle was always more popular, their highest and lowest quality releases used to be harder to seed, and that was years ago before they shut down

Beats me. I get peers from DHT, from trackers, and a few from PEX, but once they’re in a lot of them time out. A lot of them return “Connection reset” too.

Happens a lot less when i set up port forwarding properly, but it still happens. Could be a lot of things, and i don’t have the technical knowledge to even know about most

No i haven’t tried that yet, my assumption is that this only includes the settings and not the actual transfers. If it did include the transfers then Tixati users would just do that, instead i was always told to transplant core2.dat

Wait, now that i read that, it DOES include transfers! I did not know that, that’s a solid lead thank you

EDIT: It works, all the transfers are backed up; this is a lot better, especially because i preserves dates (Created, Completed, Bits uploaded, Ratio, etc).

BUT, the file locations are also backed up. This is a problem because i’m switching from Windows to Linux, so i can’t recreate the file structure because it starts with D:/ instead of starting with /media

Once i update the file location, it triggers a force check, which is the point where some of them fail and display 99% even though they were 100% before. That problem is still unsolved, and i now realize it probably can’t be solved.

Overall though this is great, you made me notice something i didn’t and it’s way better than what i was doing, thanks!

EDIT EDIT: yeah i’ve come to the conclusion that those who were 100% and are now 99% are just corrupted.

Aside from that, yeah, the file paths are different on Linux and Windows so you’ll have to rebind the locations. At this point you’ll get “error file missing” for no reason, you can force check to get rid of that.

Yes i do set up port forwarding every time, but no i don’t know if those even have peers. They should because i don’t think RARBG is that dead, but maybe they just don’t.

Then again most peers i do get come back as “Timed out connecting” and “Connection reset”, so it does make me wonder if i’m just doing it wrong. It seems to happen whether or not the VPN is on.

EDIT: i’m using Proton and this is how i set up port forwarding, i do notice a difference

Tried qBittorrent and Transmission, they don’t do better, in fact they see the same number of peers as Tixati does. And i don’t know what would happen if i had two clients try to download the same file, probably nothing good.

Are you trying to do this too?

Oh i see it now, i didn’t mean it like that lol

Yeah as far as i can tell the best way to do this is to export all magnets out of the old system, import them in the new system, make sure the file path / location is correct, and force check. It’s what i did, but a lot of transfers are apparently only 99% complete even though they were 100% before. Of these, many have 0 peers so i don’t know if there’s any hope of them completing.

It’s a shitshow. Honestly i fucking hate torrenting right now, nothing ever works

Thanks, that’s really sick! These are torrents though, i was thinking of trackers

Man i wish. Here in France they actually send letters and you get a 1500€ fine if you ignore them three times.

Or at least they did back in the day, do they still? Well i’ve already gotten 2/3 letters so i’m not gonna try to find out

This is what i expect to see in a piracy community on Lemmy
