      Reminder (if you’re in a hellhole where a VPN is needed for torrenting) to bind your network adapter in qbittorrent to your VPN so that in the event your VPN drops it doesn’t automatically fail over into the host (“real”) network interface and expose your ip for copyright claims.

      This is found under settings -> advanced -> network Interface.

      Also reminder that any game that you definitely legally own that only uses steamdrm can be played offline by using the Goldberg Steam emulator. Check the readme on that project page for more information/instructions.

          I really should spend some time to get into the better private trackers (MaM is the only one I’ve used).

          My advice still stands for anyone using public trackers.

            The private tracker ecosystem used to be so much more vibrant and easy to get into. Trackers like red with their weird interview shit are just about gatekeeping, that shit’s for nerds. Cool trackers hand out freeleech tokens or don’t give a shit about your ratio unless it’s award winningly bad.

    Treat Druid

    • thinks if they make their own versions of treats, the treats won’t be categorized as treats
    • fridge full of Mystery Jars™. Is it a propagated yeast culture for home brew? Is it a variant of simple syrup? Is it bokashi serum? Try it and find out!
    • starting to suspect they’re an unironic posadist
    • constantly trying to get you to start growing your own weed
    • often shares the dubious products of making their own treats

      treat necromancer could also be like someone obsessed with penny dreadfuls or 1920s pulp magazines but in an even weirder non-ironic way

      “yo, you have gotta watch my favorite movie. It’s from 1913, it’s called The Lovely Horse Gallop.”
