Episode 114: Frustration Visits Again
I have to say one thing...torrents...they're a great thing but they are fucking slow. Look, let me give you a tip. Lookin for a porn or some rare video that you haven't seen in decades...chances are, you'll find it doing a bit torrent search but it's going to be awhile in downloading. Don't make any fucking plans. Your chances of reversing a death penalty verdict in two weeks is better than your chances of watching the movie you're downloading tonight if the seeders aren't there.
Wait...let me back up.
Torrent files are slow not because of user connections but because you're literally getting pieces of files from all the fuck over creation. So that movie you wanted...check the seeders. If you see more seeders than leechers, you might watch the thing tomorrow morning. If you see the opposite, plan on leaving your computer on for about a month. Go on a month-long killing spree or drug binge...that'll pass some of your time.
See, I'm an old fucker. I still remember when WinMX was around. You could literally find anything anywhere at anytime. Your download time depended on YOUR connection speed and your peer's and that was a wrap. You got your file and if it wasn't too big, you could feast your eyes or your data-laden heart to the spoils of your data piracy. Yo-ho, yo-ho, motherfuckers.
This was before those government bastards got their hands on it and shut it down. Can't have the sheep talking and organizing and sharing information, can we?
So now we have torrents and the remnants of the Great Information War Armada have begun gathering and beginning the next phases of the attack. Still, there was a new weapon that NO ONE bothered telling me about.
It's called a .iso file. Guess what? That's the picture that gets burned into all of your DVDs and CDs. So how do I open it?
Hell, I'm a geek. I'll figure it out.
Yo-Ho, Yo-Ho
...Motherfucker!
