You also need to fully encrypt the traffic in your bit torrent client. You will get fewer peers, but it’s much safer

It might have only even been like six months. It was in the little change log pop up during one of the updates at some point

Just to be clear, I 100% think they are selling our data. What I meant was I’m surprised they’re concerned about the size of the uploads when they could just be selling the uploaded data.

Well that didn’t last very long. It was 8 MB for like six years and then it just went to 25 MB maybe a year ago and now we’re back down to 10 MB.

I’m surprised they aren’t offsetting the cost by selling all our data to language learning models like everyone else is

Whatever you do, don’t use G2A and other similar CD key reseller websites. Developers would rather you just pirate the game because a lot of those keys are stolen, which cause a charge back that ends up costing the developers tens of thousands of dollars in fees. In rare cases it has even bankrupt them.

Unreal Tournament GOTY let’s fucking go!

Before looking at VPNs, you should be encrypting your torrent traffic in the client

Note:* Remember that the encryption torrent option only encrypts your inbound and outbound torrent traffic. Although it will not be readable, your traffic can still be intercepted and tagged as torrent traffic. If you want to increase your privacy, you’ll need to encrypt the entire layer 3 traffic (at the IP level), so it is recommended to set Deluge with VPN. To hide traffic at layer 7 (application layer), use a torrent Proxy. And finally, to hide, encrypt, and speed up your torrents, use a Seedbox.*

I’m aiming for $1,000,000 by 50 to retire actually. I’ve got no clue if I’ll pull it off, but this site seems to think so: https://networthify.com/calculator/earlyretirement

I’ll honestly probably be dead by 70 anyways due to health reasons so even if I don’t hit that goal, I’m probably just going to retire anyways and yolo it

First of all, I’m a millennial lol.

Second of all, you’re preaching to the choir, and I agree on all points. I was simply trying to give some helpful advice in the form of a way to play the game that is becoming successful in America right now as I was literally just describing how I did things because it worked for me, and it’s worked for others as well.

I was poor for many years as an adult. I went to college, and I got into computer science. After 5 years in my career, I just (barely) got to a 6 figure salary at my last review. I’ve been putting as much as possible into retirement and living very modestly because I know there likely won’t be any social security for me so I took matters into my own hands.

Oh and for the record, my company doesn’t match inflation, and I’m still a renter and will probably never be able to afford a home.

I guess I just assumed OP was in America since their retirement plan is a bullet to the head, which is a distinctly American joke since most other countries don’t seem to make retirement such an impossibility.

Never too late to go back and get another degree. I’m pretty sure the federal PEL grant will pay for 2 bachelor degrees so you aren’t disqualified for having already gone to school.

In other news, I don’t know why there are so many haters downvoting me.

Well hey good news, college is still free as long as you’re poor and at least 25 years old. That’s how you get a federal PEL grant to break even on college. Your state probably has grants to literally pay you to go to school on top of the PEL grant since you’re poor. That’s how I did it.

Wait until you’re 25. Go to college for free and get a degree in something STEM. Get a career. Work your way up to a six figure salary. Contribute heavily to retirement. Retire once you get however much is enough.

I went to Sakura Con this year and they had a Quick & Crash arcade cabinet from 1999.

It’s not the oldest game I’ve played this year, but it was definitely the most interesting!

Level 4 has a mug you shoot that appears to really explode

The effect is incredibly convincing!

100% of people who have ever come into contact with a nipple have died. Scary stuff

This comment reminded me of Supply Side Jesus: https://www.beliefnet.com/news/2003/09/the-gospel-of-supply-side-jesus.aspx

To be fair, the overwhelming majority of people regardless of age don’t know what LaTeX or markdown are. Not the best examples. I’m a millennial with a 4 year STEM degree and I maybe used LaTeX once because it was required, and before Discord became a thing, I’d never heard of markdown. Most people who use Discord probably don’t even know it supports markdown.

Vitamin D deficiency as well!

Nearly 42% of adults in the United States have a vitamin D deficiency. This figure rises to almost 63% in Hispanic adults and 82% in African American adults.

If your shadow is longer than you are tall, you are not getting enough ultraviolet radiation to produce vitamin D. You need about 15 minutes a day.

Some of the symptoms are fatigue and depression

I know you meant collusion, but in case anyone else didn’t, it’s not collision.
