Bonus points if you can guess:

  • from which tracker the torrent is and
  • the exact title of the file

god dammit I didn't expect it to be guessed this quickly

[-] [email protected] 16 points 6 months ago

Did they actually get it correct lol

[-] [email protected] 27 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

Yup! It's the smallest (non VIP) torrent on there. Its only purpose (nowadays) is to change your ratio from NaN to a number in the hundreds of millions/billions. It's my only non-freeleech download.

[-] [email protected] 8 points 6 months ago

So its 608 byts?
I was teying to figure out what large file size starts with a b, lol

[-] [email protected] 11 points 6 months ago

Now I want to know what that is.

[-] [email protected] 8 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

Sounds like it's (please correct me if im wrong) a very small file you can seed to get your ratio of download/upload into better numbers.

Imma guess its a text file with a cooking recipe?

[-] [email protected] 13 points 6 months ago

Yes, it's the contents I want.

[-] [email protected] 10 points 6 months ago

Well, if you insist...

Boston Chicken & KFC Rotisserie Style Chicken.txt

Boston Chicken & KFC Rotisserie Style Chicken

Serving Size : 4

1/4 c Oil
1 tb Honey
1 tb Lime juice
1/4 ts Paprika
Season salt
4 Chicken breast halves with skin

Mix all ingredients well in saucepan and warm just to
 melt honey. Arrange 4 chicken breast halves, skin-side-up
 in a square baking dish or pan, sprayed with Pam. 
Bake uncovered at 400~ about 35 to 40 minutes, basting
 chicken without turning them, 3 or 4 times during baking
 or until nicely browned.
Immediately upon removing from oven, seal baking dish 
tightly in foil and let stand 15 to 20 minutes before
serving.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 6 months ago

That doesn't sound half bad. Maybe I'll try making it later, though usually I don't buy chicken with the skin on.

I have no idea about what it can be, lol.

I've got my best uploads on niche stuff, like lesser known movies and albums because I've became almost the only seed on them. In a sense, I'm happy to share and see that such content has people interested in it. My opera uploads exceeded my porn uploads so here is that (:

By the way, due to defederation you can't see the comment with the solution.

Here's the post with all comments:

Apparently being on private trackers has significantly skewed my sense of what's normal sharing stats

opensignups on reddit and invitehawk

[-] [email protected] 6 points 6 months ago

I don't understand the point of a private tracker tbh

[-] [email protected] 5 points 6 months ago

You'll know when you need it. Until then, don't sweat it.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago

Me neither. I've never been a member on one, but I don't have too much trouble finding and downloading what I need.

[-] [email protected] 10 points 6 months ago

For a lot of people, it's a community thing. I'm a member on Orpheus and they have a lot of great community stuff like Album of the Month, user made scripts, tutorials, forums, etc. They can also have a lot higher quality content and moderation because they're so "exclusive". And, for music, a private tracker is gonna be 100x better than a public one or Soulseek.

Hoopla seems okay for people who listen to a lot of mainstream stuff. I've never actually heard about it before now or used it so everything I say is just coming straight out my ass, but, it seems their library is very limited. Orpheus has a very extensive library with almost everything on there having a lossless flac version. It's still nothing compared to Soulseek, but as long as you're into bands/artists with more than 5 listeners in their lifetime, you'll be able to find everything. It all just comes down to what you're looking for though.

[-] [email protected] 12 points 6 months ago

My private tracker ratios are shit. If it wasn't for the points systems they have for seeding I wouldn't be able to do anything on them. Every so often one will randomly take off but most of the time they get stuck around like .04 even on brand new uploads. Fortunately I can find pretty much everything on public tracker. My ratio on those is far better. For example I have Godzilla Minus One from both a private tracker and public. The public one is at like 45 and the private one is like .6 both were downloaded within a day or two of each other back when everyone was pirating that movie. I would be seeding so much more shit from my private trackers if I didn't have to worry about upload ratio.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

In what way? My "real" torrents from private trackers have at most a ratio of 4.0, with most of them just slightly above 1.0 (and a bunch even below 1.0).

[-] [email protected] 4 points 6 months ago

Nah, I wasn't being serious, just making with the funny

[-] [email protected] 19 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

My top two are two different encodings of Dominion, 1080p: 205:1 and 720p: 53.8:1, for a combined 634.2 GiB of upload data. I have been seeding for almost two years.

Please, take one. Watch it and consider how fortunate you are.

[-] [email protected] 12 points 6 months ago

Everyone not vegan should watch

[-] [email protected] -5 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

I did and it just made me even less considerate of vegans

Who the fuck posts this over and over in #general and gets mad when people ask them to stop?

[-] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

People grieve in different ways.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 6 months ago

Thank you for your service.

[-] [email protected] 16 points 6 months ago

My highest ratio is 57 on Zelda echoes of wisdom ROM. But I have a second torrent for the same game with 15 ratio, because fuck Nintendo.

[-] [email protected] 12 points 6 months ago

why do people torrent recipes? aren't they just free everywhere online

[-] [email protected] 13 points 6 months ago
[-] [email protected] 5 points 6 months ago

this doesn't answer the Why

[-] [email protected] 6 points 6 months ago

It's just to get an insane ratio on a private tracker. A ratio of 1 billion looks cool but is otherwise pointless. This recipe is the smallest torrent on that site, so downloading it creates the biggest possible ratio. Not downloading anything eould give you a ratio of NaN since [Upload] divided by 0 is NaN.

[-] [email protected] 10 points 6 months ago

my guess is the switch keys

[-] [email protected] 9 points 6 months ago

40 days 7.22 ratio for a 104gb worth of Penguins of Madagascar (in Polish)

[-] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago

absolute madlad is on a mission 😂

[-] [email protected] 5 points 6 months ago

1 out of 2 poles has never seen a penguin.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

I'm not going to let it die its Polish dub is too good for that
