I know this doesn’t answer your question but I’ve never had this kind of problem with Usenet. I pay $35 USD a year and bought a couple “lifetime” memberships 6 years ago.

What others have said should help solve the problem with torrents. If you can, it might be worth getting an account with a private site.

I don’t

In my case, 10+years ago I had 6 * 3tb Seagate disks in a software raid 5. Two of them failed and it took me days to force it back into the raid and get some of the data off. Now I use WD and raid 6.

I read 3 or 4 years ago that it was just the 3tb reds I used had a high failure rate but I’m still only buying WDs

30s. GameCube, gameboy colour, n64, and xbox360. If I had to pick one it’d be n64.

If they ever use biometrics for this, mine are for sale. Cheap… I’d like to know what happens when I can’t use who I am as my ID because it’s public.

In 2025 they exploited a 2023 vuln. What did our telcos expect to happen?

It doesn’t check all your boxes but pingvin is what I use to share large files

Looks like you got it! Congrats.

Router gets the public IP. Login to it, find port forwarding option. You’ll pick a public port. IE 443 and forward it to a local IP:port combo, IE 192.168.0.101:443.

Then you can pick another public port and forward it to a different private IP:port combo.

If you want a subdomain, you forward one port to one host and have it do the work. IE configure Nginx to do whatever you want.

EDIT: or you use IPv6. Everything is a public IP.

Even then, lots of other options…

Hang on, why not open the port to jellyfin to the internet?

I have a lifetime Plex pass so its not urgent but I have a containers running emby and jellyfin to check them out. When I decide which one I planned to open it up and give people logins.

I’m guilty of all these. I’m dyslexic and have a hard time spelling. At some point the personal dictionary on my phone learns words and I don’t get the warning anymore.

And a monthly weekly subscription.

The Nintendo GameCube (GCN) Controller – Nintendo Classics will be exclusively available for Nintendo Switch Online members and will initially only be offered to those invited to pre-order a Nintendo Switch 2 console

Does this suggest I can buy it later or am I going to have to pay scalper price if I want it?

You’re right, but I’d use the word ‘trick’ over the word joke. There is no trick that would pass my scrutiny to be okay at work, that’s why I replied the way I did.

Jokes like one liners or what stand up comedians do are usually more acceptable in my eyes. I have yet to see a joke used for April fools. If you have an example please share and I might do it next year.

In the end, I really don’t care, if the joke/trick lands and no one was upset then take the win. You know your environment and are making it a better place.

The en-ca in the URL means nothing as I’ve bought from .ca websites and been charged in USD before. To be fair, it wasn’t a large company like Nintendo but it still happened. Fastest cancel I’ve ever done. So, Unless it’s explicitly called out next to the price or I’ve bought something from there before, I usually assume it’s USD.

Looks like $629.99. Never sure if it’s CAD or USD but my Nintendo account is Canadian.

This is insane, how is trump still in power?

In my mind, there’s a big difference between a quick one liner or a silly dad joke than an April fools “joke”.

April fools you try and trick someone into something. Like telling someone their socks are untied. It’s rude to the person who you’re trying to trick and they don’t feel good after. If someone believed you’re rolling back to XP only to be told “haha, JK” it’s almost rude… And these are the “nice” ones. Flipping a website upside down or filling an office with balloons… What?

Jokes should be fun for everyone. April fools is not.
