    Where do TV torrents show up first? I’m wondering why it sometimes takes so long to find releases of shows that just aired. I feel like I used to get them really quick for popular shows, but it’s been a while since I’ve had a show I try to get right away. I have a number of sources I use, both private (IPT and TL) and public, but they all seem to get new shows around the same time. Recently I’ve been trying to get Jeopardy Masters, but it doesn’t seem to show up until some time after midnight...

    Block. If it was a close friend I _might_ give different advice, but this is a stranger on the internet being annoying (or worse). Responding to him will only make it worse. Block and move on. Note: you (both) might still think about it later and you might feel a pang of guilt, or shame, or worry, or whatever. You shouldn't, because you're doing nothing wrong, but that's fine if you do. It happens to everyone. You'll think about it less and less over time. Also, I would give the...

    I bought marbles for cheap at the dollar store last summer. They're good for camping games when you don't have a lot of space.

    Personally I feel like they're generally pretty good at WYSIWYG. What they're bad at is WYSIWYW (What You See Is What You _Want_). After I do a bunch of work in Word and I have a bunch of garbage, when I load that file back I still have the same garbage. If I print it, I get the same garbage. So yeah, I _get_ what I _see_. Is that what I want? No, I want not-garbage. Anyone remember WordPerfect coming out with "reveal codes" and allowing you to basically edit the markup and...

    > Has the accuracy of the snapshots actually changed based on this edit? After all, if it's factual information being presented... Yes! Quite literally, yes. They're supposed to be an archive of what is on other sites. It doesn't matter if the original site was, right, wrong, complete, incomplete, accurate, inaccurate, factual, unfactual, etc. If they change things, they're editorializing and are no longer an archive, they're new content - which is not the purpose people...

    That's inappropriate, childish, and unprofessional. It makes them untrustworthy for citations. There are better ways of handling it. If altering snapshots for a grudge isn't your definition of "behaving poorly" for a site archiving the state of the Internet, then you must not think they have to be an accurate source of information. If they're not an accurate source of information, then Wikipedia has no obligation to allow them to be used in citations, and they should remov...

    It sounds like archive.today is behaving poorly. As far as I know, Wikipedia isn't exactly "big money". If you know different on either front, can you please explain. Otherwise your comments are meaningless.
