So I saw this post here a couple days ago about music piracy and got interested in soulseek. I've installed nicotine in a docker container and started searching for some music. I've found some pretty hard to find music and this album my father used to have in vynil when I was a kid. Cool. But the files had PRIVATE written on them.. Tried to download but the user did not share them with me. My question is: what's the point of sharing folders in a p2p program and denying access to these folders? I mean..just don't share it if you won't let anybody download it. Am I missing something in order to download this album?

Edit: hey guys I sent a message to the user asking if he could share the folder with me and he answered that he'd added me and I could download whatever I wanted! Great! Thanks for the help!

Yeah..in my country it's almost mandatory to have it or you won't talk to anybody..it's the only message app most people know.. It's like windows to operating systems..people just use it and ignore that there are different ways to communicate. I tried to use other apps like telegram or signal ..nobody wants a second app to send messages..too much trouble

The only thing that keeps me with subscriptions is the cartoons my daughter watches, because they are hard to find dubbed in my language (Portuguese). It's still more convenient to subscribe than try to find the dubbed cartoons online. For everything I watch I use my arr stack.

Nice NFT collection you got there. If we were back in 2022 you'd definitely sell them for some eth.

Wow people still use conky! Last time I tried using it, Linux was in kernel 2.6.

Yeah convenience is what still keeps me on subscriptions. With torrents I have to find 2 versions of the movie or with I have luck I can find a dual audio version. Besides that I have to find the subtitles for the movie.. Sometimes is hard to find a synchronized one in the first try..sometimes jellyfin just doesn't show the subtitles right and the text gets out of sync even with the right sub file..too much trouble

We definitely are! It's been a week since I got some sleep ... It's been 37°C to 40°C every day in my city and most people don't even have AC... I don't..

I hate super hero movies ..do you know what I do? I don't watch them..there's nothing to be saved ...studios will stop making those terrible movies once people stop watching them..if there is a lot of audience there's no meaning in stop producing..

I've been using DDG for a year and like the search results but what bothers me is that you can't exclude a word from your query with minus sign!

Looks like I'm not changing my almost 10 year HP LaserJet printer after all..

Hey I was trying peertube recently and signed up to a specific instance ..then yesterday I recorded a video and decided to upload to peertube but I found out that I have 0 quota in that instance.. I tried to find if this quota info is somewhere in the peertube instances page but had no luck. Is there any instance that give me some quota on their disk or do I have to run my own instance to host my videos?
