There was a torrent that was at 0% in my client for over three years, and as far as I could find the file didn't exist anywhere else on the internet (including some invite-only FTP sites…) other than this single torrent. But somehow, earlier this year a single person appeared out of the blue and seeded the torrent until I was at 100%, then disappeared again almost immediately after.

Naturally I've been diligently seeing said torrent since. Still completely mystified as to why and how it happened…

@drwho I think this is equivalent to saying “it's okay that john deere makes tractors impossible to repair because no one repairs tractors themselves anyways.” Sure 99% of people (including myself) don't even have a tractor, let alone are affected by having to repair one. Tthat doesn't mean there aren't people who do have tractors that need repairs. And of the people that do have tractors, even if most farmers bring their tractors into the shop for repairs that doesn't mean that the ones who want to shouldn't be able to repair them themselves.

Okay Scheme is way too fucky wucky to make actually usable CLI utilities that actually support options and flags so fuck it I'm going for C and also not bothering to work on this project until after Christmas because now I'm too annoyed
