NFTs could have a useful case of keeping online records of ownership. Being cars, homes and even cattle. Which coulld also make it easier and cheaper to sell or buy these things.

Ignoring privacy concerns of course.

Maybe, but come to think of it, it doesn't occur on all posts so if they're new comments then why don't they appear on every post

Edit: oh I'm dumb. It's on posts I've looked at. So they're new comments since I've seen the post (I think)

So for secondary, when the OP replies to a comment, it will change their username colour to that.

I still feel that silicone is more reliable than dealing with organic matter that can die.

How do they keep it alive. Do you need to feed it or keep it in special conditions? With time, as the cells age, would you lose performance?

I've never experienced or heard of any airport checking the private contents of people's devices. Wouldn't that be a massive breach of privacy?

Also how would they know it's pirated or not. Wouldn't they have to check for licenses... Wouldn't that be incredibly time consuming for staff to be checking?

Im in serious doubt this would be a thing.

"Show me the man and I'll show you the crime" Lavrentiy Beria, Stalin's secret police chief bragged that he could prove criminal conduct on anyone, even the innocent.

Before Hitler, why wouldn't you put down you were Jewish.

You may have nothing to hide now. But who knows how it'll be used against you in the future. The less people know about you, the better.

It's the path of least resistance. If public transport was more effiencent and faster, people would opt for that.

But then you're also dealing with the weather, or some people like the privacy or they enjoy driving their own car. Or not having to worry about time tables and waiting.

All these factor in, and that's why many prefer cars.

TL is pretty lenient. You're more likely to hit 10 days seeding than actually hitting a 1 ratio. In fact, unless you're seeding 24/7 you won't get a lot uploads. But that's normal. Your time spent seeding earns you points which you can use to give yourself more Downloads in GB or unlocking fun perks.

You can seed intermittently as well and even go days or weeks without having to seed. As long as you don't rack up a lot of hit and runs in one go and maintaining a good ratio you'll be fine. But definitely try to hit those seeding requirements.

They also give you a buffer so you'll start off with a healthy ratio. And they also offer a massive amount of Freeleech torrents which don't cut into your download ratio. So you can download those 'for free' and then seed those to earn uploads/points.

They have stats, how much you upload, download, how long etc. There are even achievements which earn you points too.

I would give them a go for sure. It's not as strict as you think and they have a wiki with a FAQ which should cover any questions you have.

I no longer recommend 1password. I purchased their life time guaranteed license, only for them to change to a subscription service and gave a middle finger to anyone who bought it. They didn't even honour their original customers, they offered one or 2 months free. Nah, no thanks.

I would rather try KeePass. That service is open source and free.
