Is that version important somehow?

Of course I agree with the comment. I take all my copyright advice from random comments on the internet. Especially the ones that use expletives. Those are the best comments to take advice from.

Congrats on completely missing the point. Nowhere did I mention ads. The problem is giving money to a company like Google.

It's still Google, which is basically just another EvilCorp Inc. Probably donating more directly to the creator would give them more money than going through Google.

There is no "middle ground". The solution is to talk about sex. Early and when it's prompted aka when children start asking questions.

Stop treating sex as if it's something holy, special, taboo, and assigning a bunch of value to it. Trying to shield children from it is precisely the wrong thing to do. It's exactly the same with this fairy tale bullshit about relationships, marriage, and kids. Media makes it seem like the epitome of existence, that there's nothing greater than finding that one special person, and that there's only one special person forever and ever, and that it has to be of the opposite sex in order to procreate.

The more you hype something up, and that includes trying to hide it, the more it tantalizes people.

Again, answer questions honestly and truthfully that pertain to sex, attraction, relationships, and so on. Teach how to tell the real from the fake. Normalize knowledge and understanding of intimacy. It'll make for much healthier children and even healthier adults.

Education is the silver bullet.

TIL about garrotes. We are such a fucking evil species, goddamn.

The blogpost was hilarious though. I'm just sitting here sipping my drink while I watch this AI thing play out. May the AI overlords come within my lifetime.

onlinepersona , to Science in Human Brains Can Tell Deepfake Voices from Real Ones

Now, if only human brains were able to more accurately tell apart fake from real news, we'd have much less of a problem. I bet it has to do with training though. Once we get used to having deepfake voices talk to us as often as normal human voices, we probably won't be able to tell them apart - just like like with fake news. People trained to consider fake news normal will have much more difficulty telling it apart from genuine news.

The info hash shouldn't change as per spec.

info_hash

The 20 byte sha1 hash of the bencoded form of the info value from the metainfo file. This value will almost certainly have to be escaped.

The info value is a separate key of a torrent file

metainfo files

Metainfo files (also known as .torrent files) are bencoded dictionaries with the following keys:

announce
The URL of the tracker.
info
This maps to a dictionary, with keys described below.

The info dictionary does not include the list of trackers, therefore the infohash shouldn't change.

The most likely reason your torrent stalls when running in I2P mode is probably that it doesn't exist on the tracker.

The total speed of my torrents has been 200KB/s, once even got 300KB/s. Honestly, that's not a problem for me; I'm not hooked and don't need an instant fix.

It's also logical that I2P can't access the clearnet. That's not the purpose of I2P. Theoretically there can be inproxies and outproxies, but AFAIK very few people operate them. Having an outproxy is like operating a TOR exit node.

Speed is side-effect of anonymity. The more people you route a request through, the slower it gets. It's at least as slow as the slowest link. A VPN is one single, high speed link, but it doesn't grant you anonymity (if the VPN provider collects logs). IINM you need at least 2 hops to be anonymous. A - B - C, B doesn't know if A is the source or just forwarding a request nor if C is the final destination or just another hop.

I doubt it. I2P is like TOR, but more optimised for P2P and has less users, so it's much slower (100-200KB/s on established connctions). But if the number of users grows, it may become much faster.

After you install I2P you can download torrents with the built in I2PSnark or connect it to Qtorrent. Qtorrent now has I2P support.

Here's a video on how to use I2PSnark.

You can find torrents on http://tracker2.postman.i2p . You need to configure your browser to do.

Just use I2P and you'll be fine 😴 Even if they decide to stop warning and go straight to trial, or force VPNs to keep logs, you'll be safe with I2P.
