Everywhere I worked in North America (USA and Canada) paid bi-weekly.

Everywhere I’ve worked in Europe (Germany and UK) paid monthly.

I would guess that this is just a difference in norms

Doubtful, given that Dendi is Ukrainian…

But now that I think of it, he’s a Russian speaking Ukranian so maybe he WOULD be their first choice…

Depends on the country though as well. Its probably pretty easy to figure out for big ones like the USA, but in smaller countries its often a mess…

I agree, they don’t currently. The problem is that most also don’t want right wing change, they just haven’t realised that one or the other is inevitable.

They’ll probably realise too late, but many would prefer left wing change to right wing change. The problem is, that there just isn’t any substantial left wing options being offered, so they’ll go with the right wing option by default.

The issue is that most people in despair are inclined to vote for a massive change. They just want anything different than the current status quo.

At the moment in the USA, only the right is offering substantial, systematic change. As awful as it sounds to centrists and the left (I.e. the majority of the population), they don’t offer any substantial alternative.

We’re basically at a point where the current status quo/political center WILL be replaced by something else. Centrists need to realise that the only alternative to right wing change is left wing change…

I think they mean “reign supreme” in the sense that, given the choice, most people these days would choose the bluetooth anyways.

Its just so nice to not have a cord…

This just seems like more work for him!

For me it’s less about bandwidth and more about not having to worry about building/ maintaining ratio. It’s just one less thing to think about.

I love seeding so I thought private trackers would be for me, but it’s so hard to go positive when EVERYONE is trying to. Yeah, there is freeleach but then I was downloading a bunch of stuff that I didn’t want, just for the sake of it.

Honestly, I agree with this completely. I got into private trackers earlier this year and after a couple months just quit. On public torrents I have a seed ratio over 5.0, since I have gigabit upload and just like giving back, but private trackers just ended up being a pain.

Having to manage ratios was a pain. Having to build your ratio with freeleech was a pain. I never had a single torrent get a positive ratio. To top it off, I didn’t even find the selection to be much better than public trackers.

Maybe I’m missing something, but I tried 3-4 and then just gave up. Too many rules and not enough reason to use it.
