Splash mountain was also a log flume ride.

And it will still be a flume ride when it re-opens with a more sensitive theme. FYI, I have been on Splash Mountain & loved it, but I support the re-theming of it.

probably going to have some soup for lunch

49ers fan saying that going 2-14 in the 2016 season was the lowest point for 9ers fandom.

How spoiled can you be? f*** off

 

[John Price]

not every fanbase went 0-16 like the browns and lions.

So f***ing sad I can't watch any hulu or peacock on my TV because they will try to force me to watch 2 minutes of unskippable ads

 

[John Price]

That's why people pirate, because the legal option is convenient...but just ad infested

you are lucky robocop was on max without any single ad

what happened to just being able to watch content legally online without ad infestation.

And how come there all these 20 different streaming services. I want to watch Total Recall (1990) but I have to get MGM+ or Paramount+. Yet I can watch Robocop (MGM, 1987) on Max. Makes no f***ing sense.

"Torrent it."

Yes, I'm sure there are just people out there at noon seeding a 34 year old movie

Have to go to bed super early this evening to wake up at like 3AM for my flight!

@PanthersPens62 are the Duck Dynasty people or "Tiger King" within driving distance of your city

They've been to the conference championship 7 times since 2002, and this is going to be their 3rd Super Bowl in 11 years.

Their "low point" was a stretch of not making the playoffs for 5 whole years.

49ers fans can eat shit, I hope they lose yet another Super Bowl.

 

[Sega Dreamcast]

Most importantly, all of the 49ers woes for that 5 year stretch were self-induced.

Their dipshit owner sided with that dumbf*** Trent Baalke and ran off Harbaugh.

Yet again, you think it's okay to break the law because you're inconvenienced.

That's not how seeding works. No one is out there deciding "I'm going to seed Robocop today".

Once I download something, it gets set to my default seed setting, which is to upload twice as much as I downloaded and then stop.

I can seed most things for days on end and they barely upload anything, so I usually just delete them after a few days.

Seems fine to me

I can seed most things for days on end and they barely upload anything, so I usually just delete them after a few days.

I just run a seedbox on my server (that windows 11 VM) and leave anything I download in there indefinitely. Things don't get pinged constantly, but I have unlimited internet and have no issues with leaving stuff around.

I've only uploaded 5.6TB over like 10 years. But happy to leave stuff running.

You tech nerds, speak English

don't you spend like 8 hours of forced time every day writing code?

 

[John Price]

I used to torrent way back in the days of napster and limewire and kazaa

so pointless now

do they still send cease and desist letters to grannies for downloading metallica

imagine pirating music when 99.9% of music exists on spotify

"IT'S NOT FREE"

i will glady pay 12 dollars for spotify premium every month I love spotify

your behavior is wild

just because you don't understand how to do it, and refuse to take 30 seconds to do any research on it, does not make it "pointless"

your entitlement is getting out of hand bruv

I would leave stuff to seed indefinitely, but I've ran into issues before with my VPN freezing/crashing when my internet goes in and out.

Got a letter from my ISP when my VPN bombed but all my torrents kept seeding.

 

[LarryFisherman]

Napster also definitely did not use the BitTorrent protocol, I assume limewire an kazaa also did not.

 

[John Price]

you nerds love your torrents rofl

how many dmca violations have you gotten

 

[LarryFisherman]

none, i use private trackers

 

[Sega Dreamcast]

I'm sure there's some way to configure it to close my torrent program if my VPN isn't running, but the VPN will freeze instead of outright crashing.
