This has happened enough times that the euphemism for piracy in my household has become "renting a film from my man in Bangladesh"

I could use these heroes. I have three files which are stuck at around 99.6% for many months now.

videos? they should totally be watchable at that point.

[–] [email protected] 29 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Yeah... But they're not complete. I want to archive them.

If you haven’t already, check the progress of each of the files in the content section. I had a torrent stuck 99.7 for a few days and when I checked the content I found that the actual files of interest were complete and it was just some image files that were keeping the overall progress from hitting 100%

Thanks, but sadly it's the video files missing data.

Have you tried removing the dead trackers and adding working ones?

Ah okay. Hope it eventually works!

Me, trying to find “Not4Sale: TV Sheriff and the Trailbuddies” but with ZERO luck before finally caving and paying money for my first movie in like 15 years.

A real hero buys second hand copies of media they cant find on public trackers and uploads them for the good of the swarm 🤜🤛

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 days ago

I should upload it.

That movie? 2 Fast 2 Furious

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Holy shit, 2 Fast 2 Furious is already 21 and a half years old?!

That image is so jpgd i thought my app made it worse for data saving.

Man I'm having an issue finding encounters of the spooky kind 2 and got to a max of 17.6%....

I'm honestly contemplating just finding somewhere to download from manually at this point.
Shockingly my SO suggested they found it free on the criterion collection and that... Might be the biggest chad move I've seen.

I don't think anybody in Seychelles ever seeds on purpose. Being a remote island (archipelago), the internet prices are insane. Almost nobody has uncapped internet, mostly only business.
