  • I can do full fledged software development complete with fully desktop-equivalent Neovim on my phone.

    That said, it’s really not a pleasant experience. The CPU in my phone is pretty fast all things considered, but it still takes several times longer to compile a project than my laptop does; having this little screen real estate sucks; and since Termux doesn’t enable predictive text on the onscreen keyboard (and predictive text is worse than useless when writing code anyway), the best I can hope for productivity wise is a keyboard like Hacker’s Keyboard or Unexpected Keyboard that at least has functions like Esc built in. When I have a Bluetooth keyboard, I’m about half as productive as I am on a laptop. When I don’t, writing the same program takes ten times as long. But it does have all the same features my desktop setup does, and it is usable in a pinch.

    Quite a lot of them, actually.

    Most people nowadays have at least heard of vore, but how does endosomatophilia (sexual pleasure from being swallowed whole and subsequently sitting in your partner’s stomach without being digested) strike you?

    If you’d prefer safe for work stuff, there are plenty of common fictional animal species that people commonly use for their fursonas, like the protogen (cyborgs with their iconic black visors, with a ridiculous amount of lore behind them) and the avali (a bipedal birdlike creature with a snout and four ears). There’s also digitigrade (an adjective describing animals or furry OCs that walk on their toes, like wolves and horses do) vs. plantigrade (walking on the soles of the feet like a human does) although we sort of borrowed those terms from the biologists.




  • have a >1 ratio to download anything which is impossible by definition

    They give you a bit of leniency after you first sign up. All that share ratio means is that you leave your computer seeding for a while after your download finishes, and when your torrent client has uploaded the file you got from them to e.g. 5 other people you can stop seeding it. They’re asking you to give back, is all. If you download a 3GB file from other people in the swarm and then immediately close the torrent before anybody can download it from you, after enough repeat times of you doing that, they’ll stop letting you download new files.

    Trackers cannot read, and are not interested in, the number at the bottom of your torrent client, or your history with other trackers. They just care that you seed their torrents after you’ve finished downloading them so other people can download them too.
