What is QBitTorrent, and how is it different from BitTorrent? Please explain like I’m a boomer.
It angers me that there is so much potential to make our lives genuinely easier and we focus it on writing bad articles and making naked pictures.
*Edited spelling because I’m having issues today apparently.


I think I figured it out but I always second guess myself lol. I feel like getting it on the first try means I am way off.
Oh yeah, no I just backed up and waited for him to go, sometimes I’ll dramatically bow at people who don’t stop for me but this guy was particularly infuriating because I was already walking on the sidewalk and he just went anyways. Too many drivers act like the fact that they can kill me gives them the right of way and a lot of the comments here are behaving the same way, it’s actually concerning. Like, sure wearing brighter colours can help, but it literally does not matter what you wear because the driver is going to make excuses anyways - “they dressed too dark”, “they came out of nowhere”, “I didn’t see them” - all of them amount to “I wasn’t paying enough attention to safely manage my murder machine but I can’t accept accountability because me!” And I’ve proven that fact by wearing bright colours, carrying lights, and being patient and giving up my right of way and they still almost hit me every day.
As if it actually matters what colour a pedestrian is wearing. My winter coat is white and I carry two lights - one on my coat and one either on my head or in my hand if it’s too irritating to wear. The other evening I was walking home from the grocery store and this guy kept pulling out of parking lot that crossed my sidewalk, even though I was waving my light right at him but he didn’t even look in my direction until he was already pulling into traffic. He was never looking for pedestrians, only vehicles.
I’m obliged to point out the recent Doctor Who episode where the aliens were owls. Well, shape shifting, cosplaying owls to be more accurate.


This is why people are upset no one knows how to read anymore. Did you even read the title of the post? You didn’t even have to click the link.


I think the point is that AI is wasting all those resources and can’t even work out that if one needs to wash ones car at the car wash, driving it there is required. Thousands of people are losing their jobs to AI when this is how smart it is. Fuck cars, yes - but also fuck AI.


I am going to get a bike trainer so I can ride in my garage safely or take the bus to a park and ride the trails. There was a pretty big accident in my town that killed a cyclist in an RCMP charity ride near me this past summer and it really stuck with me. The drivers will bowl over anyone and you never know who’s intoxicated. I don’t want to ride in traffic anymore.


I have a really hard time with hand signals so I’m too scared to ride my bike in public because I had a driver yell at me for getting stop and right mixed up. I don’t know why the car couldn’t just stop at the stop sign and wait an extra second for me to pass regardless of the hand signal. So now even though I love taking to it to my shopping I don’t.


Better than a toilet seat.


And people say my city of 100K is too small for a train.
Well they sure as shit don’t use them when they’re supposed to, but also, technology fails. When the camera dies and the operator decides it can wait to be fixed or they don’t have the money to fix it because they already spend $1600 a month maintaining the vehicle , children will get run over and the driver will turn into that little shit from the old Chips Ahoy commercials all “heeheehee, oops!”
It’s ok, my children are inside the children killing machine. Fuck those other kids.
If I were to judge him solely on his looks and nothing else I know about him, the before is way better looking. His unique smile and deceptively kind eyes are way more attractive than…whatever that is he did.
