Thelonious Monk Posted October 1, 2007 Report Posted October 1, 2007 it's not hard to keep a good ratio on oink. just download a few things that are downloaded frequently, and upload a bunch of flac. it's hard if you can't keep your computer on 24/7, though.
saint.panda Posted October 1, 2007 Report Posted October 1, 2007 Oink is a pain in the ass because of my college proxy, so there's no way I can be connectable. I get my music from DC++ anyway, although a bit tougher to find lossless. Needed demonoid because of some magic/mentalism teaching videos that I couldn't find anywhere else. Those DVDs are always so expensive.

I keep my computer on 24/7 and its still very hard to keep a good ratio.
Dusty Chalk Posted October 2, 2007 Report Posted October 2, 2007 Try actually listening to and/or watching everything you download. I know when I first got a high bandwidth connection, I got so carried away with downloading, that I forgot to actually listen to anything.

saint.panda Posted October 3, 2007 Report Posted October 3, 2007 what kind of magic do you do Usually close-up card magic but switching to mentalism right now because it has a bigger impact on the audience. Magic is about tricking people and people know that they are tricked so it's about catching you. Still a lot of fun though. In mentalism it's about the audience's mind (reading/controlling the mind) and some people actually believe it's possible or are unsure about it, and that's where the fun lies. As Derren Brown puts it, it's a mix of magic (mechanisms), suggestion, psychology and showmanship. Get Osterlind's Mental Miracles from BT and you'll now know why mentalism is a lot more interesting. It's a teaching DVD with performance parts. Anyways, magic/metalism gets me free beers and love with the ladies and it's fun to watch the face of astonishment.

saint.panda Posted October 4, 2007 Report Posted October 4, 2007 That Demonoid site is pissing me off. I used the activation code from postjack but still haven't gotten the activation email yet (gmail account), not in inbox, trash or spam. Searched on google and it seems a lot of people have the same problem. What crappy website software.
