You're not wrong, but it bugs me when my ratio drops, so I always seed everything I download. I have a pretty good internet service though.

My stats:

Since people keep bringing up tauri, here's the comparison made in the README:

Dioxus vs Tauri

Tauri is a framework for building desktop (and soon, mobile) apps where your frontend is written in a web-based framework like React, Vue, Svelte, etc. Whenever you need to do native work, you can write Rust functions and call them from your frontend.

• Natively Rust: Tauri's architecture limits your UI to either JavaScript or WebAssembly. With Dioxus, your Rust code is running natively on the user's machine, letting you do things like spawning threads, accessing the filesystem, without any IPC bridge. This drastically simplifies your app's architecture and makes it easier to build. You can build a Tauri app with Dioxus-Web as a frontend if you'd like.

• Different scopes: Tauri needs to support JavaScript and its complex build tooling, limiting the scope of what you can do with it. Since Dioxus is exclusively focused on Rust, we're able to provide extra utilities like Server Functions, advanced bundling, and a native renderer.

• Shared DNA: While Tauri and Dioxus are separate projects, they do share libraries like Tao and Wry: windowing and webview libraries maintained by the Tauri team.

It's when you open a publicly facing port and map (forward) it to a local port your machine. In this case, it's opened at the vpn provider's public gateway. Otherwise, it would typically be opened in your router instead.

You can then configure your torrent client to listen on that local port that the public port is forwarded to. I think generally the public and the local port are the same number when using VPN.

If you do that, then others have the ability to initiate a connection to you instead of only you being able to initiate the connection to somebody else.

When seeding/leeching to/from someone else, at least one of you needs a port open. So, if you always have one open, you allow yourself to connect to anyone on the network regardless if they have one open or not.

Sorry if I confused you more, I'm not that great at explaining.

So you have never iterated over command line arguments and tried to identify options? Or taken a string input field?

Ah yes, because rich == bad

It's possible to be successful and have a good influence on the industry. Valve is the perfect example of that.

It seems to me that you misunderstand what artificial intelligence means. AI doesn't necessitate thought or sentience. If a computer can perform a complex task that is indistinguishable from the work of a human, it will be considered intelligent.

You may consider the classic turing test, which doesn't question why a computer program answers the way it does, only that it is indiscernable from a human response.

You may also consider this quote from John McCarthy on the topic:

Q. What is artificial intelligence?

A. It is the science and engineering of making intelligent machines, especially intelligent computer programs. It is related to the similar task of using computers to understand human intelligence, but AI does not have to confine itself to methods that are biologically observable.

• John McCarthy, "WHAT IS ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE?" page 2, 2007

There's more on this topic by IBM here.

You may also consider a few extra definitions:

Artificial Intelligence (AI), a term coined by emeritus Stanford Professor John McCarthy in 1955, was defined by him as “the science and engineering of making intelligent machines”. Much research has humans program machines to behave in a clever way, like playing chess, but, today, we emphasize machines that can learn, at least somewhat like human beings do.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is the field devoted to building artificial animals (or at least artificial creatures that – in suitable contexts – appear to be animals) and, for many, artificial persons (or at least artificial creatures that – in suitable contexts – appear to be persons).

artificial intelligence (AI), the ability of a digital computer or computer-controlled robot to perform tasks commonly associated with intelligent beings

If you search blackboard bold or double-struck letters you can find more.

I'm a simple man, I just search directly in qbittorrent.

My thinkpad model officially supports linux, so there is no problem there. It is also much cheaper than any of those brands, and it's also available from the regular stores.

Depends on the devs but I reckon they won't use the API.

Here are some of my favorites. Some are not comedy and some are not romance though:

• Bocchi the Rock! (Comedy / Music / Slice of Life)
• My Teen Romantic Comedy SNAFU (Drama / Romance / Slice of Life)
• Rascal Does Not Dream of Bunny Girl Senpai (Drama / Mystery / Romance)
  Note: There is also a movie that I highly recommend to watch if you like the series. A second movie was recently released as well but I haven't seen it.
• Violet Evergarden (Drama / Fantasy / Slice of Life)
