Was recovering an old virtual machine onto a new box and was shocked to see 9,999, I presume thats an upper limit in the UI. Dune (2021) for those curious

I signed up for usenet recently but couldn't really find anything worthwhile. How do you find good stuff?

Beside a Usenet provider, you also need to sign up with an "indexer".

To compare a Usenet download with a download on the regular internet:

  • Usenet = your internet provider (which enables you to connect to stuff)
  • Indexer = search engine (helps you find the stuff)

NZBGeek is a good indexer.
