The temptation to open it drops to zero once you realise the box is full of shit.

Assuming you meant CSV, xan is wonderful for this.

Using ublock origin picker to remove everything useless. Like, Youtube suggestions, everything but download button on ddl websites, useless footers/headers on news, etc...

I much preferred the windows way, shocker, with just downloading and double-click the exe file.

This is appimage!

FWIW instead of dpkg -i stuff.deb, you can use apt as such: apt install ./stuff.deb (The path syntax like ./ is required to use a local file instead of searching for a package name).

Unlike dpkg, apt is able to fetch dependencies if needed.

Advertising.

Cause it's driving over-consumption, by flooding people brains with shit ideas, turning them into idiots in the process.

All you need to make the terminal more attractive is fish!

Bullshit, Trackers and DHT hold IP and port of peers, hole-punching technique allows to open both sides.

The only difference is the speed to establish connection:

  • With an open port, it is done instantly as peers can reach you directly.
  • Without, you need to wait for the seeder to fetch your IP from tracker (slow) or to recieve it from DHT (fast).

Now, the reason why it seems hard to seed torrents on private tracker, that disable DHT, is because seeders with closed port will only fetch leechers IP from tacker 1 to 4 times per hour, so by the time the hole-punched connection is established, leecher has already sucked up all the data from peers with open ports.

It's fine to keep port closed if you avoid private tracker and DHT disabled torrents. If you want to build up ratio on a crappy private tracker, seeding a piece of a fat 100Gb+ torrent will do.

What about holepunching?

I'd be surprise if you notice the difference.
