I watched that wayyyy longer than I thought I would, like most other people here lol

But it was still disappointing that he just hand-waved the two good fridges already having cold stuff (that's when I stopped watching). Anyone from somewhere with constant hurricanes knows that thermal mass is important when keeping a fridge at temp

Not saying you're wrong at all, but I just did the test and it's kinda funny that the title of this article would certainly have been one of the "fake news" examples.

Obviously the study shows that the test is useful (as you pointed out quite well!), but it's ironic that the type of "bait" that they want people to recognize as fake news was used as the title of the article for the paper.

(Also, not saying the authors knew about or approved the article title or anything)

Usenet indexers don't seem great for podcasts, but omg is is my go-to.

I don't know any podcast trackers, but thegeeks is open for signups rn and it's good for educational stuff, which includes podcasts (it's a bit difficult to build ratio, but files are relatively small)

I've never heard of anyone getting in trouble unless they're seeding without a VPN from their home network. I have a seedbox and just keep seeding until my storage fills up, then I run a purge of well-seeded content.

if there's something important that I'm missing, please let me know!

Do note that some private trackers (do you have communities dedicated to trackers here?) require you to access from a residential network. They say they'll ban you if you use a VPN or tor or whatever:

  1. Some seedboxes give you VPN access for free that uses the same machine and IP that the seedbox is using
  2. It's usually pretty obvious when looking up IP addresses whether they're residential or commercial
  3. I've never seen anyone banned for VPN use on a private tracker, but I've never been social on private trackers (sometimes people get banned for "no reason," and there's always a chance this was the reason)

I'm curious to hear how a non-corporate NSFW community can thrive safely? You said you don't have any answers - does anyone else?

I have the technical knowledge and plenty of money to run a lemmy instance and enough time to dev some moderation tools. But it seems like the issue isn't technical.

If somebody brought me a few full-time moderators and a lawyer or two (who I don't have to pay), I'd happily spin up an instance with terabytes of storage and start developing whatever tools the mods need. If somebody guarantees me I won't be liable and won't EVER see CP, I'll provide the servers, sysadmin, and some dev work.

Reddit has something special with their unpaid mods - I can't see it working any other way, but a group of mods like gonewild or something is probably one in 10milion.

Quick edit: I also want to say that I agree with everything you said :)
