Was recovering an old virtual machine onto a new box and was shocked to see 9,999, I presume thats an upper limit in the UI. Dune (2021) for those curious

Now wheres my crossbones flag?

please excuse my stupidity but what does this mean? i know it's something with torrenting but i don't know what exactly

They have really high seeding ratios.

0.5 would mean they uploaded half the filesize. 1 means whole filesize. 2 means twice. You get the idea.

okay damn that's impressive

[-] WarmApplePieShrek@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 8 months ago

Actually relative to what they downloaded. You import a file you already downloaded but it's missing 10kb, you download 10kb, you upload 100kb, your ratio is 10, not impressive.
