Usenet pros:
- not p2p so no real chance of getting busted
- max out your bandwidth the whole time you’re downloading
- no need to seed, no ratios, etc
- Cheap AF
Usenet cons:
- Files aren’t forever. Servers do delete content after some time so search results aren’t always available on your server
- Usenet servers, especially in the US, are pretty responsive to DMCA demands
- Not free
- Complexity of setup (Sab + Arrs) are a barrier to entry
- Public nzb search engines aren’t always going to have what you need. Private search engines are usually invite only and/or cost money per year
- Far less variety for niche stuff than torrents (imo, ymmv)
- Comment on Anon doesn't tip 5 weeks ago:
Sorry, but I pay for the food and if I feel its deserved, the service. Being a mooch would be not paying g for the food.
Do away with tipping and food prices go up by the cost of paying workers a fair wage. To the consumer it ends up being an even trade. Ultimately, the only group getting hurt is the owners.
It works fine in other countries but can’t in the US because…?

Ultimately, the restaurant industry’s management tier collectively agreeing with wait staff that wait staff doesn’t require a working wage and depending on handouts from customers is a fine solution is the problem.
Quite honestly, that isn’t my problem. I’m there for some food, not to be guilted into running a charity function to make up for greedy management and a staff that prefers this bullshit.
- Comment on Anon doesn't tip 1 month ago:
Overwhelmingly when polled, waits staff much prefer to keep tipping over a living wage. They make far more from tips. Trust me, me not giving a waitress a tip isn’t the line that keeps he kids from dying of hunger.

That’s how I remember it as well. It was a frustrating mess of dead sites or sites that looked like they were created in 1993 and loaded with the speed of a BBS coming through a 1200 baud modern

The new 988 number for the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline went into effect on July 16, 2022. In July 2020, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) designated 988 as the new three-digit number for the Lifeline. The number has trained staff to answer calls from individuals at risk for suicide as well as those experiencing other mental health and substance use-related emergencies. Specialized services are available for veterans, LGBTQ+ individuals, and other groups.
