Blairmore latest Alberta community to lose bank branch — a trend seen across Canada
Valerie Robinson has been a CIBC customer for almost 30 years. Now, that’s coming to an end.
She lives and does her banking in the Crownest Pass town of Blairmore, Alta..
The bank notified the community of 1,500 in September that the local branch will close on Feb. 5. The nearest other CIBC branch is about 40 kilometres away in Pincher Creek.
CIBC will remove its ATM in Blairmore too.
Robinson is worried about locals’ reduced access to cash: the currency of the small transactions that fund the life of the town.
“All of our fundraising, like with the service groups, curling, sports activities for kids — you're not going to have a kid going around with a debit machine to sell their raffle tickets, you know.”
CachyOS founder explains why they didn't join the new Open Gaming Collective (OGC)

Maybe. I'm leaning more towards the typical "letting developer toxicity run rampant" situation:
And based in what is provider there I do not see a problematic statement by antheas (or how he is called). Maybe more context is needed?
I feel it's a red flag that you don't find the blatantly transphobic slur a "problematic statement", let alone the belittlement of other project members and defense of "abusing" people, as he put it. Not to mention he's been banned from other projects for violating their codes of conduct.
These screenshots don't do justice to his aggressive behavior and mistreatment of other project maintainers, including his own team.

For targetting ratio, you need to target the general taste of the tracker (example: BLU likes high quality remuxes. BluRay DLs arent as popular).
Other than that, try to crossseed as much as you can ;)

This is what I use. Really simple to setup. It has a kill switch in case the VPN goes down.

in reply to slothrop • • •Torrenting in Germany is DANGEROUS. Piracy is in general harshly prosecuted here but "one click downloads" are in a gray zone. That means while you can download everything you want, Uploading is very illegal and henceforth seeding.
This is also the reason why i didn't seed my Linux back. Nobody in the world knows if i am allowed to seed proprietary software but if i am unlucky, that means pain.

Seeding actual .isos is legal.
What is illegal is torrenting movies and stuff. You know, stuff that one usually needs to pay for.
And for the 2nd part, you can rent a seedbox somewhere where they don't care for your little mishehaviour

But now you technically owe someone.

My public torrents routinely have 10-25 times the ratio.
