As a man in his 50s it’s become painfully obvious that I’m never retiring.

We love dynasties out here on the prairies, no matter how little it relates to reality.

Interesting. Newsgroups are literally what i used last century for my piracy. But back then you got newsgroups (and other services) included with your internet.

Windscribe free doesn’t support P2P anymore? Hmm, that’s an interesting development.

I check my srt files for that kind of thing and just remove it. But i don’t download as much material as many people, perhaps.

That’s how things are for me right now. If i didn’t have a mortgage and access to loan money I’d be living on the street.

I mostly listen to jazz, blues and classical. I use rutracker which has everything I want and in lossless formats. Mp3s too but I’m more interested in lossless.

Do they have a good healthcare plan? If they don’t…well just never get cancer or something.

Well unless their ideology is baked into the programming I’m not sure why it would matter. It certainly doesn’t matter to me.

We haven’t had letter grades (not % or numbers either) here in Regina for more than 10 years for grades up to 8. High school (9-12) just uses a %.

It’s ridiculous that they’re even allowed to dump untreated/poorly treated sewage and other effluent into the ocean within the 200 nautical miles which is Canada’s jurisdiction.

Kids were trying to solve problems 25 years ago, too, even if you weren’t.

I use a free VPN (Windscribe’s free 15 GB) from time to time if I’m torrenting something very new. Otherwise I don’t use one.

I use torrents almost exclusively because of the price (free) and convenience. That is, I can get them easily where I live for no additional cost beyond my low speed internet. I have no extra money at all, at this time in my life, unfortunately.
