Reply to Is Dread's I2P mirror still up? by Zeroday

Somehow, someway, the Tor link is not working. I pass the verification and get a 502 bad gateway. Someone actually talked about this on r/DreadAlert - Anybody got hit with the 502 bad getaway ?. That was 3 days ago.

Dread has been down for a few weeks now and I am getting increasingly more concerned about HugBunter day by day. Wish you the best, man! <3

Reply to comment by Super751 in Maybe someone knows what this site is hiding ? by Super751

haha could be anything, to me it looks like "there's a bug, i'm broken please fix" but it could be anything

tons of abandoned sites on routers from people that keep them running

for all we know it could be a front, some people do this as a honeypot to see what the vulnerability scanners are up to so they can protect their main sites better

there could be something else on another port or you need to auth somehow to see the "real" site

probably just a dead site though but you never know

Wellll, maybe it's not a regular case, but if you taking some antidepressants or neiroleptics ..... the result is gonna be a different every time, but never that you wanna, you gonna behave unpredictably, and when I was on the party (actually I don't like to come to the parties, after truing some of them), we drunk some alco on the backyard of the club and it was a nice euphoric feeling, but then I was trying to talk with some of the guys I came with, but it completely wasn't successful, so I came to the club in hope that I will find a girl there, but because of the alcohol I was feeling my self more stressful then regular, so it was completely impossible. I tired to stay inside and came out to smoke some, but then one of my friends took me to the dance pool, it's actually not a great feeling when u don't wanna to dance completely, but then think like, "why not" "maybe it's gonna be fun" and a lot of your friends staying around u, what you have to do ? Well I came out from that club back to the dormitory and I decided not to go to any party, because I don't feel fun in that. But when I drunk with my friend (And it was a green Jack Daniels) it was just a good time, a little bit euphoric, but you must decide with who and where you will drink.

Extra: Dont drink if youre retarded (incredibly stupid) or have previous mental health issues

Its actually not that easy to get addicted too, it has to be a constant from what I've seen. Its pretty awesome sauce basically

Drink with people you trust

If it's legal where you live, you could use kratom instead. It doesn't really cause intoxication, and the only outwardly noticeable side effects are "over-caffeination." It tends to interact with alcohol, so don't take both at once.

At low doses it's like coffee, and at higher doses it causes intense euphoria. Just be careful not to use it all the time, because it's slightly addictive.

I don't consume much alcohol myself, being a saint and all.

As a former heavy drinker I can guarantee you that you're not missing on anything worth experiencing, specially given how you're exposing yourself to open a can of worms that you might regret for the rest of your days.

Over the years I've met many people (hundreds) that live miserable and painful lives because of alcohol, it's a very normalized addiction in most societies and it's extremely hard to stop drinking once you start, it's also extremely likely that you become a recurrent drinker when you start because liquor is cheap and easy dopamine in unnatural doses that your brain is not ready to handle. And you might think that you won't become a heavy drinker but you must acknowledge that everyone that suffers from alcoholism started somewhere, and they likely never had someone warning them about the problems like I'm doing.

The reason I decided to stop it and cut it entirely before it became a worse problem was that I see alcohol, as many other vices that we're exposed throughout our lives, as another means of control; to deprive people of their health and their autonomy is the best way to ensure they remain docile and accept the state of affairs imposed onto them by tyrants while making profits off it. I reached the conclusion that a society that normalizes substance usage or abuse at all and weaponizes hedonism is not a functional society, and must be fought back at any cost.

Well, you're certainly not missing out on anything by remaining sober. But if you're of the legal drinking age, and have never drank, as long as you're in a safe environment with some friends or something you know and trust, a couple beers won't hurt you.

With that said, I've not drank in probably 3 or more years. Not for any particular reason, even when I did "drink", it was mostly maybe two or three times a year, max. In my earlier years (18-23, namely) I'd drink more often, maybe once or twice a week. Sometimes (often) in excess. I don't miss it, but did have some good times with some friends and managed to escape any real harm. With that said, that time could have been better spent doing, well, anything else. Gym, study, relaxation without intoxicants, hobby, etc.

You won't start a fight a stranger or text your family something regrettable after a beer or two. As long as you're generally a well-hydrated person, a beer or two isn't going to leave you feeling hungover. Worst case, you may wake up feeling a bit "under the weather".

I've never had a real positive outlook on drinking, I don't find it a suitable trait for someone to do it often unless they're young and in those socially acceptable "party days" (See me, 18-23~). Just don't make a habit of it. Nothing sadder, in my opinion, than seeing some old dude pissing away his money and health at a pub or sitting around a TV every night.

I would suggest asking for a glass of water.

More so, I enjoy a little now and then, but very rarely. I don't like the feeling, nor do I like the hangovers that tend to follow. Not worth it.

As for the feeling? It starts out as relaxing and then moves on to even more relaxing. At least for me.

When I do drink it's the hard stuff. A shot now and then, but never enough to do more than enjoy the flavor.

To me it feels like your entire body is submerged in molasses, including your mind, but in a way that generally feels pleasant. Your body and mind will feel sluggish and you will notice that doing things requires more energy than before, very similar to being sleepy.

Remember to eat, drink plenty of water, stay safe and have fun!

Tips for if you're getting drunk: Eat

It'll burn if you don't, you won't have a good time and the drink will hit hard and fast. Will you act dumb?? Probably not if you don't want to, the poor judgement comes from excess.

If you're gonna try something and you don't mind the taste, cheap tequila, one shot for first timers and check your tolerance from there. IF you do mind the taste (won't blame you), just go for something prepared.

For the feeling? You'll feel light, almost floaty, and not only your head will be spinny, your whole body will. You won't get a hangover from being tipsy (unless its genetic, I don't get hangovers at all), hangovers also come from excess.

No, it's not just you. See this thread.

/u/Paris:

I do not trust the i2p network enough anymore. The bloom filter issue caused me to need to burn a whole lot of servers which I would have rather not needed to do. Issues come up but with arti beginning to be production ready the Tor network will only get even stronger.

Reply to comment by Oaloo in Methods for creating torrents to seed? by Oaloo

tuckit can be used to do this sort of thing http://git.simp.i2p/simp/TuckIt

it uses either mktorrent or torf to hash torrents. if you just need that functionality to automate things maybe seeing what's going on http://git.simp.i2p/simp/TuckIt/src/branch/main/modules/torrent_functions.py could help.

you could check a directory every so often and give one of these things the location of any new files, then have it symlink the data files to the torrent client directory then move the .torrent file in. http://git.simp.i2p/simp/i2music/src/branch/main/updateplaylists.py is doing other things, but this is what it does starting line 678

Any I2P-capable torrent client should be able to create torrents. If you're running i2pd, try I2PSnark Standalone, either the + or "vanilla" version. If you're running a Java-based I2P, you'll already have I2PSnark available.

Reply to What search engine(s) are you using? by chmod755

On the clearnet I use SearXNG, same with Tor when I wanna find clearnet results.

When I'm on Tor and wanna find results on the Tor network, I use Ahmia.

On I2P, I use legwork, and on Freenet, I use the Clean-Spider index.

Information about censorship in South Korea and discussions about privacy technologies (VPN, Tor, I2P, etc.) are the main topics.
