And here are my qBittorrent stats. I left my computer running for 6 days, I never thought I’d get this far! But that electricity bill’s gonna sting…
It’s good to give back to the community.
EDIT: To any three-letter agencies who might be reading this post, I was uploading Linux ISOs and scientific research papers. I would never dream of uploading copyrighted material…
I feel like you shouldn’t be advertising online that you’re uploading large quantities of pirated media? Just kinda seems like common sense? Some of you guys are very trusting lol.
It doesn’t say anywhere that he’s seeding pirated media. Seeding is not illegal.
Do you really think someone out there is going to see a random post where a guy says he has uploaded a bunch of… something and decide to try to investigate to find out what?
That’s not how it works. Even if he had included actual torrent names in the screenshot, the chances of someone caring enough to pursue it are infinitesimal.
Reddit was subpoenaed for that shit.
Subpoenaed for what, IP addresses? Then assuming he’s using private trackers (hopefully he is) or a seedbox then they don’t find him in any public swarms and that’s the end of that lol
Subpoenaed for all reddit user data if those users. Didn’t go anywhere, iirc, but they do try.
Hey, I clearly stated that I was uploading Linux ISOs and research papers! I never said anything about pirated media!
spoiler
In all seriousness though, in hindsight I probably should have used an alt account to post this. If my home instance becomes compromised, I could end up in hot water…
Aww yiss hot tub stream
I’d never imagine doing that in Egypt lol. We don’t have unlimited fiber/adsl. the datacap we pay for is 250gb for about $5
First of all, thank you very much for your service.
Secondly, you’re crazy lmao

I’m Detective John Madden with the NFL, you’re under investigation.
This seems more appropriate.
scientific research papers
When JSTOR comes knocking you are going to wish it was the MPAA instead

PUSH IT TO THE LIMITTT
Sorry to hear your dreams are limited.
All I see is a fellow ISO 8601 enjoyer (for dates).
It always made sense to me, because when you create folders for your backups, it will always get sorted chronologically.
Yes, that and for most databases as well, easy sorting shit no extra rules or frameworks to make it make sense to the computer.
Currently my server is at 1.5 TiB uploaded since last restart. Always on lol. I wonder how badly it impacts my energy bill. I just have a 1gig unlimited data connection. Figure I oughta use it haha . And yes obvious iso and open src software and the like.
My cable modem consumes about 10-20w (I’ve done monitoring). This while a single file server is continually backing up to Crashplan (about 700GB this month so far). So I don’t even see my cable modem in my power bill.
My file server is much worse - on average it’s consuming about 100w (or 2400wh/day). I’ve done the math several times, that’s about $1/day. It’s the box that’s syncing with all my devices, and then backing up to Crashplan.
My desktop Jellyfin/aarr stack and nextcloud server runs about 1.2kwh/day. So not bad but not free
Ya prob similar. Someday I wanna measure but I’d have to get some tool for that. How do you measure?
Just a no name knockoff killawatt meter, I think it was $10-15
im at 30TB uploaded
but i swapped setups last year and idk what it was at before. so 30tb 1 yearOK but wait shouldn’t that emoji be named ‘sickle and vibe’ instead of ‘hammer and vibe’?

A Raspberry Pi with an USB drive should use no more than 20W of power, if you want to further your endeavors.
Even the newest Pis use around 2W on idle (which seeding torrents basically is). I’d say the whole setup would be under 10W, or under 5W if the disk is 2.5".
Spread your seed far and wide, let it cover the Earth.
Good on you seeding useful stuff. Last time I had to get my ratio up on a private tracker I had to seed download 50GB and seed close to 1TB of granny porn.
I liked everyone’s faces, when they asked where I got such a good ratio, that is was all granny porn lol.
Thank you for your service.
