  • I say to one of their neighbors, “their pies tasted better when they were using real sugar, but they’re scared the kids’ mommies will be mad because their kids are up all night so they just took the sugar out. Didn’t even replace it with anything. The Johnson’s still use real sugar, they don’t care.”

    Actually, I would say that unless it impacts you negatively, you shouldn’t criticize what others are giving freely. If they ask for criticism, that’s fine. But you shouldn’t volunteer it.

    That “free pie stand” didn’t do you wrong. You dumped a heap of negativity on them for something they did out of the goodness of their heart, spending their time, energy and hand-earned money on. And you were negative about it, staining their memory of that event for your own selfish desires.

    If they had asked you, “why don’t you want this pie?” you could have answered, nicely. But they didn’t ask you.

    Instead, you should have just left and gone to the Johnston’s pie stand instead.


  • I 100% agree with your point about security and private information, but you are way over qualified for this “job”. ;)

    It’s kind of weird to ask someone to have all that mod experience and then expect them to just post their private information publicly, though. Surely if they have enough experience they’ll already know what a bad idea it is to publicly post people’s information, and it’ll be hard to get them to apply.

    It reminds me of a past job recognizing that I have a lot of cashier experience, but then not being able to understand why I refuse to share a till with anyone else. Duh, because I’ve been through that pain before and any smart office will want to avoid it, too.



  • To expand upon that, I had something similar to the OP’s setup at one point, and I found things worked a lot better when the files could be moved on the same volume, rather than appearing as separate volumes (because they were mounted separately). I ended up re-engineering my whole setup for that and it’s much faster now.

    As for duplicates… I assume this is so you can continue seeding after the file has been moved? I can’t think of anything that would fit the bill for that off the top of my head. Ideally, I think you’d want QBT to just start serving from the new location instead, though I admit hard links does sound like a solution that could work.

    And after Googling, it seems like it already does hard links for torrents for this exact reason. I think if you just map /media (and drop the 2 maps you have after that) things will work like you want.
