Really big fan of the design of the header on this blog, cool way to represent tags and article information without it being monotonous.

Uh oh, not good that a major Nvidia competitor with genuine alternative technology will no longer be competing... Chances this tech gets killed post-acquisition?

It may be more likely that Nvidia sells the LPUv2 at a price that doesn't threaten Rubin.

Zero. Non-zero only if someone says something deemed “woke”.

It's wiped from the front page already

And it's back.

It seems to work for me? https://archive.ph/sr0sd

Maybe that's new? Either way, great to know.

I have a feeling this will get DMCA-ed off of Internet Archive in an attempt to suppress it. Here's the infohash of the archive.org torrent download for future reference, this should allow the file to be retrieved in any torrent client as long as someone in the world is seeding it still.

here it is, in magnet link form:

    magnet:?xt=urn:btih:734abc77f48d11c78543c52004b6f57db71d6d92&dn=60minutes-cecotsegment&xl=1483256352&tr=http%3A%2F%2Fbt1.archive.org%3A6969%2Fannounce&tr=http%3A%2F%2Fbt2.archive.org%3A6969%2Fannounce&ws=http://ia601703.us.archive.org/32/items/&ws=http://ia801703.us.archive.org/32/items/&ws=https://archive.org/download/

(exported from my currently-seeding torrent client, then pasted into a separate torrent client, to verify that it works correctly)

I left the high seas many years ago, but I'm down to seed for a cause.

What's the best torrent client nowadays?

Qbittorrent, Transmission etc. The Transmission daemon can be installed headless with negligible system load on a vast number of devices, from Raspberry Pi-like and smaller SBCs to Linux/BSD NASes, then operated from remote through the web interface or a phone app.

qbittorrent is still regarded as independent and safe, I think.

I’m still using it happily on windows/linux.

Don’t forget your vpn!

That brings me to the next thing: Taking VPN suggestions. What's the best? I like secure.

Edited to remove being a moron.

Mullvad. The only VPN company I actually trust.

It's important though that Mullvad doesn't do port forwarding; you won't be able to seed effectively

Then you probably don't want a free service that costs money to run where they can only make money by converting most users to paid or monetizing your information in a country where you are unlikely to have an attorney whilst operating what amounts to a honeypot for every government on earth.

That said protonvpn seems reputable

That's a fair point that I arrived at once I put half a second of thought into what I was actually asking.

I pay for proton. It works. I’m not as security conscious as I should be but it’s pretty much a set and forget thing aside from changing ports.

Proton VPN has port forwarding that lets you seed torrents.

For desktop use from within Plasma/KDE I'm happy with Ktorrent. Feels very intuitive, and has no problem saturating a 1GB/s pipe, and doesn't slow the system down, while doing so.

(At least not mine, which are old and almost obsolete but have enough RAM)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KTorrent / https://apps.kde.org/ktorrent/

Otherwise follow the links from there to qBitTorrent, or its mentions from other commenters here. Am not fond of transmission at all. Feels slow and sluggish in comparison.

qBittorrent

mullvad is not a torrent client

Hey there seed buddy... I'm about to become the fourth web seed.

We're not going anywhere.

I'm seeing 1813 seeds right now

It's ridiculous that this has to be done.

I'm honestly speechless. But thanks for the magnet link.

It will be a second dose of Streisand if they do.

r/DataHoarder is already on it

Yup, reddit subreddit sure seems like a good place for "anti-american" discussions.

Where are the independent and non-VC fueled discussion forums when you need them?

Seeding :3

I believe they're largely targeting foreign companies who don't care much about US copyright law.

related to your letterboxd suggestion, https://couchmoney.tv is quite good! it uses trakt instead of letterboxd but it's given me quite a few good suggestions. their FAQ describes a similar approach to what you've been talking about, it tries to find movies and tv you like disproportionately like.

what safety measures does this have to avoid some incident (held down button, software bug, etc) draining the entire battery within a few hours, thus bricking the device?

It has a hard cutoff built into the firmware at two minutes so after that point the recording stops and the ring turns off until the next button press.

Yeah, I have to wonder what lead them to these color choices. Not sure why they wouldn't include a white option or any other good neutral colors that actually go with silver and gold. And I think the number of people willing to wear a matte black ring is quite low, especially among women.

personally, i worry about what happens when it doesn't last for years. a software bug causes high power draw, or you set your ring down and something gets pushed against the recording button for a few hours, or you fall asleep laying on it. given it only has a 15-hour recording life, this happening just once could be the end of your $75 device

We thought about this of course: the ring is limited to 2-minute recordings, then button presses are ignored until the next button press

amazing! does it provide any other protections against other battery drain risks? glad you guys though of that haha, definitely will be ordering one :)
