Can locales of languages with alternate spellings be added? (i.e. English - United States, English - United Kingdom, etc.)

Too many posts weren’t federating with kbin so I had to make a lemmy account to avoid missing comments from non-kbin communities, so hopefully the federation issues get fixed at some point.

Liberapay doesn’t appear to support PayPal, but Patreon does.

The people using Reddit for its data have the easiest time scraping it for its data since they don’t need API access to post, comment, or moderate; it’s unfortunate that Reddit management continues to degrade the experience of the average user just to make it slightly harder for that scraping to occur.

Isn’t the current TPB distinct from the original; made to look the same, but run by different people?

It’s a private usenet indexer that periodically opens registrations; essentially the usenet equivalent of a private torrent tracker like TorrentLeech.

Problem with PBS is that each of their releases has an availability time limit, making finding their older content at optimal resolutions difficult.

Have you found a private tracker that works well for documentaries? I’ve tried TorrentLeech, FileList, MVGroup, and usenet so far, but my to-find list still has several releases I have yet to find in 1080p (despite most such documentaries having released since 2010). MVGroup is the best tracker for documentaries I’ve found so far, but they tend to upload lots of documentaries a tier below their optimal resolutions (ie 2160p documentaries in 1080p and 1080p documentaries in 720p).

Given only 24Mbps of download speed split between everything in one household, keeping things likely to be rewatched backed up not only saves bandwidth, but also makes having a 4K TV somewhat worthwhile.

Having only 4 Mbps up and 24 Mbps down, without Freeleech building a buffer would have been impossible, particularly when competing to seed torrents with people with faster internet speeds. In the case of TorrentLeech, the best option is to invest ~2GB of your buffer into downloading and seeding 100 10MB+ torrents, giving you 4 TL points per hour. In combining the gradual point gain with the rewards of the easily attainable TL achievements, after a month you should be able to accumulate 5000 points, enough to purchase 100GB of additional buffer from the TL marketplace.

‘But they pinky promised that they wouldn’t!’ -Reddit users after the 30th, probably

Had to use sudo to do it, but it worked. No message about permission issues appears when I try to save the changes to the Arguments tab anymore, but they still don’t save when I reopen the permissions window either.
