I vari client torrent +negli anni hanno occupato una percentuale imponente di tutto il +traffico mondiale. + +Il web è pieno di articolo molto approfonditi sul protocollo, +wikipedia è un buon punto di partenza. + +*** Tracker privati +I tracker privati dal punto di vista tecnico offrono lo stesso set di +funzionalità di un tracker pubblico ma la community generalmente ha +regole moltro stringenti. Alcuni tracker, come rutracker o nyaa, sono +considerati semi-privati perchè permettono a qualsiasi utente di +registrarsi. I tracker privati più esclusivi invece richiedono +un'invito o il superamento di un'inteview tramite IRC. + +In queste community, di solito c'è un'ampia serie di regole che +riguardano la quantità e il tipo di contenuti che si possono +scaricare, le precauzioni che si devono prendere quando si accede al +sito, il numero di client che si possono utilizzare, etc. Tali regole +e contenuti variano da tracker a tracker e vanno da quelle piuttosto +liberali e poco applicate a quelle ultra-paranoiche e autistiche. I +vantaggi dei tracker privati includono: + +- Velocità: più grande lo swarm, più veloce è il download. I tracker + privati incoraggiano i loro membri a rimanere in seed i torrent il più a + lungo possibile, aumentando così le possibilità che un torrent abbia + uno swarm sano più a lungo. Inoltre molti membri usano delle + seedbox o delle VPS con velocità molto elevate e peering eccellente. +- Retention: i tracker privati di solito + applicano regole che incoraggiano il seeding a lungo termine. I + contenuti più oscuri rimangono sani per molto più tempo che sui + tracker pubblici e generalisti. +- Selezione: alcuni contenuti non sono disponibili su nessun sito + pubblico e si trovano solo su tracker privati. A volte non è nemmeno + possibile acquistarli legalmente, ironia della sorte. Questo succede + spesso con delle release particolari ottenute da sorgenti non + destinati alla vendita. Ci sono specifici tracker che si occupano + solamente di contenuti oscuri e rari, assicurando che non vadano + persi da internet. +- Controllo di qualità: i tracker privati hanno regole rigorose sul + formato, la qualità e l'organizzazione dei contenuti. I tracker + musicali assicurano che non si ricevano orribili transcoding a + 92kbps; i tracker cinematografici assicurano che si ricevano solo + buone codifiche, i tracker di ebook assicurano che si riceva la + qualità di vendita al dettaglio, etc. I membri e lo staff esaminano + e approvano ogni torrent. Le regole di trumping e la rimozione dei + duplicati assicurano che si ottenga una sola fonte approvata dalla + comunità per un contenuto e un formato specifici. In aggiunta a + questo i tracker privati curano in ogni dettaglio la grafica e le + funzionalità del sito al fine di offire la migliore esperienza + possibile per la ricerca e scoperta di contenuti. +- Sicurezza: la maggior parte dei tracker privati sono così di nicchia + da non essere conosciuti o considerati da nessuno. I copyright troll + preferiscono concentrarsi su enormi siti pubblici, dove è facile + pescare i peer, piuttosto che su piccole comunità difficili da + raggiungere. Da un punto di vista monetario, è più conveniente + impedire a 10.000 occasionali di scaricare due torrent che impedire + a due autistici di scaricare 10.000 torrent. Ci sono però alcune + avvertenze: i troll del copyright perseguiranno in modo aggressivo + la fonte dei media pre-release trapelati, come gli screeners. Di + conseguenza, molti tracker privati non ammettono questi contenuti. + Fortunatamente gli screeners trapelati sono in genere molto popolari + e si trovano comunque facilmente sui tracker pubblici. I grandi + gruppi di pirateria prolifici, come la SCENE o i gruppi di + distribuzione ben noti, sono bersagli enormi per i copyright troll. + +Ricorda sempre che a causa della natura più sociale che tecnica dei +tracker privati, spesso lo staff richiede la registrazione di un +account utilizzando il proprio indirizzo IP. Per tenere traccia degli +utenti vietati, delle regioni vietate e così via, la maggior parte dei +tracker privati registra tutto ciò che viene fatto sul tracker e +conserva questi dati per sempre. I tracker privati sono tutti +intrinsecamente illegali e gli utenti si stanno affidando a una +persona o a un gruppo sconosciuto. Non si può sapere se il personale +ha intenzioni nefaste. Non si sa quanto siano competenti in materia di +sicurezza informatica; nel corso degli anni ci sono stati numerosi +casi di breaching dei tracker a causa di sviluppatori incompetenti. +Molti vecchi tracker memorizzano la vostra password in chiaro, o non +hanno la 2FA, non proteggono correttamente i loro siti o una serie di +altre cose. + +Per saperne di più sui tracker privati, ed in particolari ottenere i +primi indirizzi: https://wiki.installgentoo.com/wiki/Private_trackers + +**** La cabala e la merda +Alcuni tracker sono la cabala, ovvero i tracker migliori, più longevi +e più rinomati della comunità. Sono oggettivamente i migliori nelle +rispettive categorie. Avere un battibecco con lo staff della cabala +significa venir permabannati da tutti i tracker della cabala e da +tutti i tracker disposti a collaborare con la cabala. + +Alcuni tracker minori sono assoggettati alla cabala; chi viene bannato +dalla cabala, viene bannato anche da questi. D'altra parte, un buon +ratio o behaviour su uno di questi tracker sarà preso in +considerazione per la candidatura ad un altro tracker soggetto alla +cabala. Tuttavia, a causa del loro contenuto di nicchia o di qualità +inferiore, questi tracker non ottengono la stessa esposizione della +cabala. + +Vi sono anche sono tracker gestiti da personale noto per pratiche di +merda come lo scambio di account, il DDoS di altri siti, +l'incoraggiamento di pay2leech, la vendita di account o spazi +pubblicitari, la memorizzazione di password in +chiaro. I peggiori nemici della cabala, quindi non aspettatevi che il +ratio su uno di questi siti venga preso in considerazione sui tracker +della cabala. Questo non significa che non possano avere buoni +contenuti o un buon sito e per questo valga valere la pena iscriversi. +Basta non dare loro soldi, per nessun motivo. + +Vi sono alcuni tracker e communities che non hanno lo sbatti di fare +un'eccessiva moderazione nè la hubris per sentirsi un club super +esclusivo e sono noti per non collaborare +con la cabala. Sono comunque tracker legit e spesso semi privati. +Rutracker, pornolab e nyaa sono i più importanti fra questi. + +*** How to get into private trackers (and survive) +Copiato da wiki.installgentoo. Questa sezione dovrebbe dare al lettore un'idea +della quantità di regole e pratiche alla base delle communities dei +tracker privati. Oltre a questo, si può argomentare che i tracker più +stringenti sono essenzialmente in opposizione ad uno degli elementi +cardini della pirateria, ovvero l'accesso libero ed indiscriminato dei +contenuti. Piuttosto che pensare al proprio pene digitale e +all'opinione che dei neckbeard sconosciuti hanno di te è probabilmente +più sano concentrarsi sui tracker semi privati che offrono comunque il +99% dei contenuti alla migliore qualità. Inoltre è opportuno fare +sempre una riflessione su come si sta contribuendo alla scena. + +The first thing you need to ask yourself is whether your needs are +satisfied by what you currently have at your disposal (DHT/public +trackers (TPB and KAT), DDL, newsgroups, streaming, Soulseek, Tribler, +DC++, Kad/eDonkey, sneakernet...among other things), because private +trackers may not be actually worth your time, depending on what you +want. Joining private trackers isn't hard, but it takes time. Do you +just want that one specific file you've been searching in vain for +weeks? If so, you'd be better off asking someone on /r/ to snatch it +for you and call it a day. Do you want to build a comprehensive +library with consistent and superior quality such as good encodes, +proper music tagging, retail ebooks? Then you should try to join one +of the specialized trackers. Do you live in a copyright-cucked +shithole and are afraid to get raped by the MPAA/RIAA and associates, +but care little about music or HD? Then a general tracker should suit +you. Depending on your goals, whether they are long-term and +short-term and whether they are currently satisfied, the amount of +time you will have to invest will vary. +- Open-signup trackers: This is the easiest step. All trackers have to + start small and build up a decent userbase before they can afford to + limit entry, and thus some trackers are open to signup for a time. + Numerous websites keep track of these (opentrackers.org, + opentrackers.net, btracs.com, /r/OpenSignups), unless you're looking + for something specific, just go to rutracker (rutracker.org). Yes, + it's entirely in Russian, but who cares? All registration forms look + the same, and you weren't going to post in the forums anyway, right? + (More on that later). Rutracker is really nice because it's + comprehensive, well-seeded and has high standards despite having + very few ratio restrictions. In fact, 99% of the needs of most users + are met there. If you are looking for porn, it is recommended to + open pornolab (pornolab.net). Yes, it's in Russian too. Here's a + guide from a Russian speaker to rutracker. +- Pay2Pirate: Some trackers will invite you for a fee. The idea is to + prevent potential cheaters from abusing the system (in ways defined + at the discretion of the staff) since any fuck-up would cost them + their account, and thus their money. Generally pay2pirate trackers + are considered low tier, since they are run for-profit and several, + notably IPT, have a history of shitty behaviour. There are *NO* + trackers worth paying to join, at all. Almost without exception they + can be joined for free with easy to obtain user invites. The content + that paid trackers offer is rarely if ever better than what is + offered by the good public trackers. +- Application: Some trackers have a special page with an application + form in one way or another. Their goal is to keep a moderate influx + of new members they can control by assessing your willingness to + join and what you have to offer. Different trackers have different + requirements: some will require proof of good ratio on other + trackers, some will only require that you show genuine interest and + good will in your application form even if you are new to the + tracker scene. Some mostly care about what material you have to + offer to the site. Try to be sincere, honest, lengthy and don't + forget to provide an email address so they can notify you of their + response. +- Interview: A few trackers have an interview system; it means that + you are going to join an IRC channel and answer questions to their + staff. It's mostly a way to control members' origin as almost all of + them will ask that you join from your home connection. + + Redacted interview: READ THIS GUIDE FOR REDACTED.CH and THIS ONE + TOO before interviewing. Generally, the best way to get into good + trackers. The interview is extensive and similar to what.cd + (easier because the spectral analysis section appears to have + been toned down). You can fail if you don't take this seriously. + Currently, the most reputed tracker known to maintain an + interview system (essentially the new what.cd) + + Myanonamouse interview: This is more of a chat, questions are + mostly about the rules, you will not pass or fail so there is no + need to worry. + + Oppaitime: more of a chat, and questions are mostly about the rules. + + Bakabt interview: More of a 3-minute chat about whether or not + you understand the rules. +- Invite forums: Once you've established a good standing on one of the + aforementioned trackers you've hopefully managed to get in, you will + be able to move on to more restrictive ones. Most top trackers + require new users to have a past of good standing (i.e. Power User + or Elite user class) such as one that can be shown on a tracker + whose staff they trust - the tracker scene is a small world, and + tracker staff often cooperate (or fight) with each other. As such, + there are recruitment threads on various trackers so they can + exchange good-standing users for the benefit of all. +- Super Exclusive Sekrit Klub: Once you've made it to the big ones, + the rest is up to you - you may try to join some of the ultra-closed + trackers such as EXIGO or HDBits but at this point your needs should + be pretty much covered unless you are looking for something really + specific or just doing it for epeen. + +Generally speaking open signup trackers will not offer you a pathway +into more desirable trackers. Some trackers have application signups +and you can progress from there, but you'll be taking months if not +years longer to climb the pyramid if you do this. It's even harder to +remain /pure/ as well. The standard method of progressing is to join +RED, regardless of your feelings on a music tracker. You can join via +an IRC interview and it offers the best invite forum for new users. +The RED interview is conducted like an online exam, they ask you to +close everything except for IRC and then send thema screenshot of your +desktop. You aren't supposed to look at the prep material. They +monitor the prep website and if your IP address shows up connecting to +it they'll stop the interview and ask you to admit to cheating. If you +fess up you can try again the next day. If you lie they'll permaban +you, this is like a cabal ban as well so it can make life much harder +for you. What you can do is cheat by saving the prep as a pdf. it's +all fairly simple stuff to remember anyway and you'll need to know it +if when you start uploading anyway. + +Next up is reaching the elite userclass to unlock the invite forums. +You actually get access at power user, but better trackers require you +to be elite before asking for an invite. Some will have even more +requirements, like a 6 month old account or more. The requirements for +elite userclass are 50 uploads, 3 months of account age and 100GB of +upload. The first two are easy, you can just upload shit from deezer, +or transcode FLAC's with no mp3 version. Getting 100GB is tricky. +Without a seedbox you'll likely get 1.00 ratio on your uploaded +torrents so it will take considerably more than 50 FLACs. You can seed +your initial uploads with a seedbox, which should get your better +returns. You could also race by autosnatching. RED is very competitive +however, so do this only if you have some experience using a seedbox +and configuring it correctly. pay2win is an option, you can usually +get 5-10GB filling a request for an album from bandcamp or similar. +Another option is to use the "premier" plugin for Deluge, which +manipulates the swarm and piece distribution to only upload a new +piece once everyone in the swarm has the previous one, which means you +upload 100% of the torrent to every single user. Proceed with extreme +caution though, this plugin is not specifically banned on RED, but if +autonstachers notice they are getting 0 upload from you they may add +you to a blackl-, sorry, BLOCKlist. If no one autosnatches from you at +all you will only ever get upload from permaseeding or requests. +**** What not to do +- Cheating: The cardinal rule of thumb is that most cheaters end up + with their account and their entire invite tree banned. Beware of + any anon which recommends cheating. Cheating doesn't just mean using + some dodgy client to fake ratio. If you "seed" 1000 torrents and + throttle them all to 1kb/s in order to farm bonus points without + using up badnwidth you will probably be in trouble if anyone ever + notices. Any actions like this that are not in good faith will not + be looked upon kindly. +- Beg for invites: Autists on /ptg/ have taken it upon themselves to + report every single email they see in /ptg/ threads to various + tracker staff and spam crawlers (they've gone as far as combing the + archives for emails in past threads and reporting those too). + Tracker staff are known to lurk /ptg/ and will ban anyone they catch + sending an invite to an email posted there. If you accept an invite + you begged for, you will be found out and lose any chance of + acquiring a legitimate account. Especially watch out for PTP staff + as they will revoke invite privileges and ban you for the smallest + of transgressions (such as, but not limited to, accidentally posting + IP lists in screenshots, posting the email you use for trackers). + Tracker staff have been known to autistically pore over /mu/, /g/ + and /ptg/ threads (archived and live) for the express purposes of + finding and banning inviters/ees. +- Trade for invites: Tracker staff really, really hate this. If you + are caught trading (and you eventually will be) they will go out of + their way to ban you, your entire invite tree and will cooperate + with other tracker's staff so as to disable as many of your accounts + on other trackers as they can. Don't go to tracker trading forums + such as torrent-invites and the like, even having an account there + (especially with the same username) may count as a red flag to some + staff. It is reported that sites such as What.CD formerly abused + bugs in the browser's web history to determine whether or not users + were visiting sites such as torrent-invites and to ban people based + on this activity. Site staff are also known to pose as invite + sellers to trap and ban naive users. +- Buy invites: You'll lose money along with the chances of getting in + legitimately. Some staff will be lenient if you ditch your seller + though, probably because they want to get at the source first. + Invites are usually free (and easy enough) to get from gateway + trackers so it's not even worth buying invites. + +Generally speaking, you should avoid invites from random dudes on the +internet if you can; you most likely have no idea of their standing +and they could very well fuck up later, resulting in an entire treeban +and you getting banned through no fault of your own. It's unfair, it +sucks. Stick to official invites (interview, application, recruitment +threads) and no one will bother you. + +- Posting on the forums: Every post you make on the forum is an + occasion of getting someone riled up, and that someone may very well + be staff. You're here for downloading and uploading stuff, not + chitchat. Don't use the forums. +- Talking to staff more than necessary: Same reason as above. Don't + give them any reason to ban you. If you rustle a staff member in any + way, causing them to ban you, the entire staff will rally behind + them even if they wouldn't have personally banned you themselves. + It's the mod's word against yours, you can never win. +- Being confrontational with staff: Simply assume they are always + right, even (and especially) when you point out that they are wrong. + +In short, either keep a low profile or suck staff's dick, as with all sites. +**** Cabal is so hard to join, I just want some content. What do I do? +A brand new user is looking at potentially years before they get into +the desirable trackers such as PTP for movies and BTN for TV. These +trackers are not the sole sources of content however, they are merely +the most convenient since they have the largest archives. To get the +best coverage of content a new user should look to join a few decent +HD trackers, as well as a few general trackers. The more the merrier. +Staff don't appreciate people collecting trackers they will rarely +use. Fuck 'em. Join any tracker that you feel has interesting content +or will compliment your ability to find the content you are after. +Some decent and more importantly accessible HD trackers a new user +could join would be Blutopia, BeyondHD and UHDbits. Couple this with +IPT, or TorrentLeech as your general tracker to fill the gaps. +SecretCinema is an excellent tracker for people with a genuine +interest in obscure/arthouse/weird cinema, as it has an active +requests section with users filling from KG/PTP/TiK and so on. TVV +will supplement your general/HD trackers for older or obscure TV +content, if you can find an invite in the wild. Avistaz or ACM will +fill your asian media needs. Don't count out public trackers either. +RuTracker especially is a top general tracker despite being public. +BakaBT has IRC signups and it's old archive will fills the gaps of +obscure content you can't find on Nyaa. RED should be your first port +of call and is the top music tracker, so that's covered right away. +MaM is also arguably the best book tracker and has IRC signups as +well. + + +**** Getting acquainted with rules and maintaining your ratio +Okay, now we're going to assume you made it to a couple of private +trackers - if you haven't yet, please read above part (TL;DR: get into +an entry-level tracker; work you way up from there on either tracker's +PU forums; if that's too much bother for you, use rutracker/pornolab +and stop reading this). This is a guide intended to help those who +already made their first steps in the elitist, restricted and highly +autismal private tracker world. As you can see, things are quite +different here. Rules, ratio, buffer, seeding, userclasses... what the +fuck's all this? Things were much simpler on ThePirateBay where you +could just search, click and have your stuff right there, right? + +And you know what? You're right. Most folks on /ptg/ and elsewhere +will tell you stories about how they did a kind gesture and invited a +friend of theirs (or even a fellow Anon) only to see them log on twice +into the site before never using it again, no matter how hard they +begged and how convincing they sounded. In all likelihood, these +people first logged on, their excitement faded when they saw that they +couldn't just start downloading everything before signing off, found +the rules too complicated, lost interest in the whole thing and +settled for more accessible alternatives (which are, again, not +necessarily bad, depending on what one wants). Since you're reading +this, It is assumed that you're not one of these people and that you +actually want to use the trackers you're on. Are they worth it? Well, +that's for you to find out. Before you decide, here's a few tips +that'll show you it's not that hard, if you can read that is. First +things first + +- Read the rules. Seriously, do it. Tracker staff are autistic, you + get one account per lifetime and you don't want to start playing + cat-and-mouse games with the admins that early. Most tracker rules + are similar, and go on the lines of "Suck our dicks at all + occasions; don't leak invites or torrent files to public places; + don't trade or sell invites; don't be inactive" followed by + specifics on content rules (what you may upload) and ratio rules + (more on that later). Read all the details as there may be some + specifics on each tracker. Some have exclusive content that you + can't upload elsewhere; some prohibit the use of Tor or VPNs, or + even expressively forbid that you log on from anywhere else than + your home connection; and so on. Read it all so you don't get caught + unawares on some autistic peculiarity. +**** Ratio issues and tracker economy +Now let's assume you're familiar with the rules, how about you +download some shit? The only problem is that ratio thingy: surprise, +when you're done downloading something, no one ever downloads it back +from you, ever. That's because, unless you joined a low-tier tracker, +the seeder-to-leecher ratio is extremely high, with everyone +permaseeding everything while only leeching occasionally. This brings +us to our main point: tracker economy. Trackers can be roughly sorted +into three categories: those with no economy, those with a soft +economy, and those with a hard economy. Some of the most +forward-thinking trackers do away with ratio altogether, though +keeping seedpoints as the sole currency of their site. These are +neither soft or hard economies as the economic levers are created by +and adjusted solely at the discretion of the respective tracker. +- No economy: trackers with no economy are essentially ratioless. + Torrent retention is achieved by imposing seeding requirements or + individual ratio requirements ("you must seed with a 1:1 ratio OR + for 72 hours"), and people get an incentive for seeding by acquiring + bonus points that can be used for transcending userclasses. The most + prominent example of a ratioless tracker is BTN. You won't have any + problem there as long as you seed. A tracker being ratioless does + not give users leave to go on Hit n' Run rampages however. These + kinds of trackers will routinely keep tabs on users with low average + seedtimes how appear to be taking advantage of the economy. +- Soft economy: tracker with a soft economy use a ratio-based system + complemented by bonus points. These points are typically earned by + doing specific actions, the most common of which seeding for an X + amount of GBs, regardless of whether someone is actually downloading + it from you. Some trackers will reward you for uploading torrents, + idling on IRC or doing any kind of activity that contributes to the + tracker and the site as a whole. Most trackers have a soft economy, + from AHD to PTP, from MAM to bB or AB. Another kind of soft economy + is a ratio-based system with a large amount of freeleech torrents, + i.e. torrents whose download stats aren't counted but still earn you + upload credits. Such trackers include SHD, SCC or bB, AB and MAM + (again). You won't have many problems if you don't download + everything like a retard: just grab some freeleech or small + torrents, wait for your amount of bonus points to passively + increase, get upload credit when you can, use that upload credit to + download more, etc. The more you snatch, the more you seed, the more + points you earn, and eventually you'll have enough buffer to freely + download what you want. +- Hard economy: trackers with a hard economy are ratio-based but + provide little to no means of complementing one's upload amount, + like bonus points or freeleech sections. As a result, there's only a + limited amount of upload credit (which acts as tracker currency, + there are whole academic papers about it if you're into that kind of + stuff) in the whole tracker, and whatever credits you earn, someone + else has to spend. Getting upload credit is quite hard and you might + have to work on your ratio before being able to download whatever + you want without hindrance. On the other hand, since nearly everyone + is as tight on ratio as you are, everyone will be permaseeding + everything and torrents will have an excellent retention. +Trackers such as Bibliotik have a hard economy, and most struggles you +hear about getting one's ratio up will typically be on one of those +trackers. There are four main methods to get upload credit, on top of +permaseeding everything (which you should do in every tracker anyway - +you're doing that, right?): getting a seedbox, filling requests, +uploading your own content and jumping on popular torrent swarms +early. + + Getting a seedbox: Basically pay2win but you might end up doing that if you don't want to bother too much and have money to spend. A surefire way to build a ratio on any tracker. They also alleviate the risk for users in countries who hand out DDMCA notices. Seedboxes can also server as media servers and much more. + + Abusing the fuck out of freeleech: /ptg/ers like to preference the most active torrents especially staff picks and the top 10 most active on freeleech days. + + Filling requests: Can be tricky as people will obviously request stuff they can't find elsewhere, so unless they're particularly inept at googling and people didn't catch on you won't have any luck. If you consider the request to be worth it and you like the content requested you could also buy it, a less cheesy pay2win since you still end up with the physical medium as opposed to imaginary points on a website that might get busted at any moment, on top of the warm fuzzy feeling that you made someone you don't know on the other side of the globe happy. Looking for requested material on other related trackers also works, though the process can be tedious. + + Uploading your own content: A reliable way to get upload credit AND satisfy the usual userclass promotion requirements; however, unless you're operating from a seedbox or a very fast connection, you'll have a hard time achieving a ratio much above 1:1. That's because seedboxes usually snatch your stuff (especially if it's recent or matches certain tags) before taking priority to distribute it across the swarm, since the BitTorrent protocol favors peers with a faster upload speed. You'll still get upload of at least equal to your torrent size though, so you could survive on uploading stuff alone (also, if you keep uploading consistently good stuff, users will eventually "subscribe" to you and snatch everything you upload). On sites like Bibliotik uploading enough content makes the entire site freeleech. You might also be able to get extra bonus points for uploading content. + + /pyramid/: And finally, jumping onto popular swarms (aka /pyramid/ on /ptg/) is a risky though exciting activity that rewards those who catch on early and get to upload to everyone, while those who joined in on a later date only get a fraction of the original seeders' credit, thus creating a pyramid scheme. Popular torrents include those about to become freeleech or the newest content from popular artists. /ptg/ regulars will often post about /pyramid/ tips, which means you could download from that torrent in the hope that it'll grow and eventually get you a ratio above 1. If you have a seedbox or any kind of dedicated server, automatic tools such as autodl-irrsi will snatch stuff based on relevant information (such as tags, year etc.), however you run the risk of downloading too much stuff you can't afford, even if some of it pays off. Use at your own discretion and beware, your upload speed and peering has an enormous impact on what ratio you will end up with. + +- Other economy: economies that have no ratio requirements, but + maintain a semblance of order and structure by relying solely on + seedpoints, or bonus points, to function in a similar way to 'hard' + ratio-only trackers. Rewarding long term seeding while at the same + time disincentivizing pump-and-dump autosnatchers, seedpoints are + used in ways other than to simply download torrents depending on the + tracker. Voting on requests, ascending the user class ladder and + purchasing goodies in a bonus points store are a few ways that + seedpoints can be used. It is worth noting that many ratioless + trackers use points to purchase optional functionality. BTN is an + example of this. By changing the requirements for maintaining a + ratio to that of spending seedpoints to download a torrent is what + separates this category from the ratioless variety. + +**** "Help, I've been cabal banned!" +I can just turn my router off and on again to get a new IP and start +over, r-right? Wrong. The private tracker community is small, so +unless you live near a large population center there's a real chance +you are the only person in your town or city using private trackers. +Which means it'll be obvious when staff cabal ban a rural Danish IP +and the next day a rural Danish IP is in the RED interview channel. +Consider what exchange you use and what IP range range your ISP uses. +As well as other data like the torrent client you have, browser +version and so on. If you ever do get banned and want to get back in +it's best to wait a few weeks, or better yet a few months. If you are +creating a new identity, remember, DO NOT check your old profile, +especially just after joining the tracker. Some paranoid sysops are +checking every new account's activity for weeks, even for months.

Either she went to an alternate dimension and saw proof that her +children were okay or she told herself a story that helped her moved +on, like others were able to do after the departure.

Nora mentions +repeatedly in this one episode alone that she doesn’t lie or she’s not +a liar (when she’s being recorded just prior to being transported) and +again when she’s dancing with Kevin at the wedding she tells him “I +can’t do this because it not the truth” (his story about how he found +her). It’s true she does lie throughout the series to conceal things +she’s doing, but eventually she does admit to Kevin what she’s really +been doing. So she does lie but she also exposes her truth. So I don’t +believe she’s lying to Kevin when she tells him her story. I believe +she really went there, only in the way that Kevin went to the other +place (the hotel). I believe Nora panicked at the last minute as the +capsule was filling up with liquid, she yelled stop and began to +drown. By the time the physicists were able to pull her out Nora may +have died medically and needed to be resuscitated. That’s when she +traveled to see her family, just like Kevin when he drowned. The +episode itself is called “The Book of Nora”, which I take as meaning +she experienced what Kevin experienced near-death. I don’t think she +ever believed anyone would believe her story, but that’s exactly why +only Kevin would. + +I wasn't on board with the: 'Nora goes to some alternate reality via +the radiation machine' theory until I realized 119 testimonials is +significant. If Mark Lyn Baker is #120, Nora would be #121. This +corresponds with Nora's S1 discussion about question #121 on the +benefits questionnaire: "Do you believe your loved one is in a better +place". + +I've been trying to keep my eyes out for 121. I noticed it after +rewatching season 1 and 2 recently. It is also in s2 ep1 when Michael +was selling water to the tourists in Jarden. He was at table 121. Good +catch! + +** Theory +I know this sounds like one of those shitty fan theories like ________ was dead all along/is in purgatory or whatever but I've thought about this since Saturday after I showed it to my lady and I think there is enough supporting evidence in the show. + +So we know that when Kevin dies he goes to this place that serves as some thematic journey in order for him to deal whatever part of him is keeping him from moving on from embracing his loved ones and being happy. The entire second season revolves around him feeling disconnected from his new life because he can't let go of his old one, just as the third season is about Nora doing the exact same thing, but instead of Patti she's haunted by the memory of her family and just like Kevin she decides to kill herself in order to deal with her past for good but instead of getting drugged she gets irradiated. + +If you listen to the story Nora tells it sounds as believable as Kevin being and international assassin or the president, I know what some of you are thinking "But u/OpenUpYerMurderEyes, Kevin had to assume sort of persona in order to go on his journey, Nora is just herself, how can it take place in the same place?" to which I offer two answers. + +A) Kevin's problem has always been his inability to feel like he belonged after the departure. His dad went crazy so he took his place as the chief of police despite the fact that his officers are often suspicious of his abilities (the guy who looks for Dean questions his sanity, the dude who contacts the ATF after Gladys dies goes over the chain of command) after Laurie joined the GR he became a single father and is so bad at communicating and being emotionally available he doesn't hug his daughter, who is suffering just as much as he is, untill the final episode of season 1. Nora LOVED being Nora, it gave her special attention, she had fun in Guest pretending to be something she wasn't and all but in the end she still needed her loss to be recognized and said her real name before getting hugged by Holy Wayne, in season 2 she has Lily and so she is able to be strong enough to keep her sanity together while Kevin was losing his mind but in season 3 she gave her away and so needs to be a mother again. Her journey to the other side isn't about her hating herself, it's about her needing to be with her kids again. + +B) Thia may seem like a stretch but I think it's worth mentioning is that Kevin destroyed the other side in the episode beforehand with nukes and that seems very final, however, remember that Kevin was in Melbourne when the nukes launched, we are told once they launch the nukes Russia will launch them back at the US and end the world but we only see the bombs in Australia. Now I'm not a fan of people being too literal about this sort of stuff, I do think it's more powerful if the whole other side gets nuked to apocalypse but I think this fits thematically with the third season since from the opening moments the show tells us this season about what happens when the world DOESN'T end after everyone expects or wants it to, why wouldn't the same go for what happens in the other side? Maybe a lot of people died but not enough to make the other place totally inaccessible or useless to anyone else who needs it. + +Another key component of this puzzle is water. Both times Kevin goes to the other side he emerges from water, in the last season he has to drown himself to get to the other side just like Nora. Water is a symbol in this show for cleansing, not so much season 1 since they were mainly adapting the book, but season 2 is all about Miracle and the water from the spring where Kevin tried to kill himself, when he sees Patti in the other side she's floating in a pool and layer he has to drown her, the entire third season is about a great flood coming and everyone but Nora and Matt trying to stop it from happening. Nora has to hold her breath in irradiated water to go to where they are then she has to find boat after boat after boat before finally reaching her family, when we catch up with her we see all these red marks around her hairline, may be due to old age sure, but it may be because of the radiation she had to endure to go and come back just like Kevin has that scar he wants to show Nora but we never see, sure it can be from the pacemaker surgery but it might be from having to cut his twin brother open to get the key to end the world. + +One last thing to bring up is who Kevin and Nora need to come back. For both of them the people to bring them back are total strangers who the main characters only heard of in passing, either Richard Burton aka God or the Doctor that created the machine that brought Nora to the other side and back, nothing much to add just another parallel. + +Umtimately the point of the final scene is that it doesn't matter if Nora really saw her family or not it's just a nicer story, it may or may not be true, what matters is that Kevin believes her, that's why it's so perfect, I think the only bad fan theories are the ones that actively rob the text from its power so forgive me if some of you feel this way about mine but I think the scene is much more powerful if it's about mutual understanding and growth, whether they do it literally or not they have to kill themselves in order to become the people they need to be and they need each other and that's what the other side is, a place to kill yourself in order to move on. Thanks for coming to my TED talk, this is literally the greatest show I've ever seen. + +TL;DR: Nora died and went on her own International Assassin style journey to let go of her past and move on. diff --git a/secretwiki/ffmpeg.html b/secretwiki/ffmpeg.html new file mode 100644 index 0000000..ba1336f --- /dev/null +++ b/secretwiki/ffmpeg.html @@ -0,0 +1,247 @@ + + + + + + + +‎ + + + + + + +
