I guess the biggest expense is the hard-drive that needs to keep spinning and powered. I could create a new thread asking about torrent hosting on SSDs vs hard-drives. The constant (random) read operations should break hard-drive after some years?
Oh I forgot about that micro-nation that elects a new leader on death I guess?
what was your highest rate? A ratio of 3x ?
That would be a horror-story for me, electricity prices are high and the downloading computer should run for 24/7, with a spinning hard-drive.

Wow did he have some automation that restarted his computer daily? Amazing that the torrent finished for you!
I also have one that is sitting 50% and it has been sitting there for days. I think people should be honest about torrenting, its obvious. The experience can be hit and miss, some seeders have very slow connection, and break all the time (intentionally)?
The drone revolution has to impact the policing at some point. Drones are way cheaper to operate than Helicopters, while giving like 50% of the capabilities of one, in regards to optical area viewing.
Auto-Moderation can be configured wrong.
The evil of the google-reddit hybrid mix knows no bounds. The site turned toxic.

This seems as problematic, since reddit will not exist as a place for organic conversation like this any longer but an over-moderated place.
is this a new hoop you have to jump across to be considered a valid user?
Thank you for your service of the fediverse. You can be proud of yourself. I could never do something like run such a big instance.
They seem sterile, devoid of something real. The frontier of the internet has moved on.
gaygal? I think you mean alphabet cooperation ™️
I am sure their AI is watching your comment right now. And mine, fuck.
Why are the advertisements making fun of me?
Why UK?
