I want to turn off my PC but I’m the only seed for an unpopular linux distro. The downloader obviously has it capped at 1MB/s so it’s crawling slowly… just a couple minutes now…
I have my download at 10MB and upload at 5MB. I don’t want to hog all the bandwidth from my family and I don’t need it any faster anyway. I never see the upload reach the cap.
you’re a pirate. you don’t owe anyone anything! arrrrgh!
Actual pirate ships were very democratic generally. When splitting the bounty, everyone got an equal share. Maybe 2 shares for the navigator and 1.5 for the captain. But that’s it.
So while they didn’t care much for non-pirates, they certainly treated each other fairly.

I’m open-source; check me out at GitHub.
I hope you still have that thought when you are waiting for a torrent with 2 seeders and 40 kb/s.
