You literally can’t go farther left on the political spectrum than communism.
By the way, capitalism is not a political ideology.
You contradict yourself.
By your own logic, if capitalism isn’t a political ideology then neither is communism.
The fact that you wrote these in the same comment lets everyone know that either you are ignorant, or you are extremely misinformed on the subject at hand.
Yea, I’m a millenial, and I remember mostly only interacting with old Macintosh LCs in elementary school, and then Windows 95 and up after that. My uncle had an old Tandy computer running DOS, that I remember at least learning how to run a game on, but by the time I was interacting with a computer, regularly, Windows 95 and AOL were the most common thing.
Usenet is awesome, but the fact that you have to pay for Usenet access defeats the main purpose of pirating for a lot of people.
Don’t get me wrong, it is super cheap(60$-100$/year?) and worth it to pay for Usenet from what I understand, but as a poor kid that discovered torrenting out of necessity, paying for Usenet back then would’ve been out of the question. I imagine a lot of Gen Z kids feel the same about it at this point in their lives.
You make a good point. We all might be being copied and deleted in our sleep every night, for all we know.
There’d be no way to know anything even happened to you as long as your memory was copied over to the new address with the rest of you. It would be just a gap in time to us, like a dreamless sleep.
If you right click a torrent and select remove, it automatically deletes the torrent files that qBT stores in the appData or home folder. If you check ‘permanently delete files’ it also deletes the media associated with the torrent file.
Most people dislike uTorrent because of the fact it was loaded with malware(cryptominer) and ads(hopefully the version you are using is before this crap). Also, download speeds are faster on qBitTorrent.
That being said, the UI is definitely a little different and I understand not wanting to learn a new workflow. You do what works best for you, friend.
You are very welcome. You aren’t the first person to have been misled by the pause versus stop name convention thing. There are tons of questions about it on the qBT forums showing many other people were concerned that there was no way to ‘stop’ torrents in qBT. I had to look into it myself when I first switched.
In qBittorrent, “Pause”, aka “stop”, stops all data transfer and tears down all peer connections associated with the torrent. You can even verify this with Wireshark. This is functionally equivalent to uTorrent’s stop button.

C++ is a superset of C, and C is a subset of C++. C++ was originally designed for the purpose of updating and adding OOP to C.
The main things C++ has that C doesn’t are user defined data types, support of reference variables, function overloading/overriding, built in exception handling with try/catch, inline functions, and C++ has around 30 more keywords overall.
I would say the biggest difference is the OOP focus of C++ where all of data and functions are encapsulated into an object. This helps make C++ more secure and better for writing high level implementations than C.
Vim Adventures is cool, but you can’t get very far into it without a subscription. PacVim is free and also effective at teaching some Vim commands.
You are misinformed. Communism has ‘political implications’ the same way that capitalism does. See the list of communist ideologies on Wikipedia for a primer.
