As a lad we always had non-fat milk, which I didn't mind. When I went to university, I got 2% and enjoyed it very much. Now I treat myself to full-fat milk, although I don't have much of it.
That said, there's another white liquid that I enjoy drinking even more, but I digress.
@justatest90-0 It didn't look "obviously" fake in the pics that Kalayaan the Great posted, but the reference you supply is indeed clear.
I hope that at least the bush is real...
@blablarg18 You're right, I forgot that one.
Back to the pyramid itself, I'm not sure how to interpret it: Are things better for us at the top of the pyramid? Or should we eat more of things at the top and less from the bottom. If so, I'm pleased to see broccoli and peas at the top, as they are favorites of mine.
Also, the image shows canned green bean and canned tuna. That implies at least some level of processing. It mystifies me. Fortunately my partner is a professional chef, and he worries about this stuff for me.
I always thought the major food groups were alcohol, chocolate, caffeine, and fat. I'll have to give this some study.
@ianfontinell-0 Thank you again for your explanation. I appreciate the thoroughness and time you invest in answering questions, not only on this topic but so many others. If there were an award for "Hero of the Forum," you would get it.
Back to this specific topic, and using more metaphorical and less numerical mind, it sounds like when someone downloads the 30 GB torrent spoken about above, at first the Windows OS "fences off" 30 GB of space for where the data will eventually go. Then, if one properly stops the torrent before downloading all the material, and the folder goes away, the "fencing" is removed, and the space previously reserved for the non-downloaded material is freed back up to the OS.
This topic also got me curious about the backup drives I use to store older material that I've downloaded, as well as some personal and business stuff. It seems that when I manually copy folders to those off-board drives, there's no wasted space. I tested one with "Disk Properties" and got the following:
It looks like there's only 0.1% of overhead here, which is certainly tolerable and not something I'm going to worry about.
@ianfontinell-0 Thank you for the information. I've been a Windows user for several years and I didn't know this.
Question: Sometimes I've deleted a torrent and its content (using uTorrent 3.5.5), without actually stopping the torrent, if I've looked at some of the content and don't want to download the rest. If the folder (given that it was a multi-file torrent) disappears, can I assume that the extra space has been freed up. If not, is there a way to recover this space?
Thank you again.
I am not a moderator, so what I say is just this member's personal opinion.
Age verification has entered a dark new age. Most sites that say they require age verification will settle for an upload of a scan/.jpg of the applicant's driver's licence or other government identification. These can be altered by someone skillful with Photoshop, or ordered on the dark web for a fee as little as 100 USD. Sites requiring age verification have little incentive to resort to more sophisticated approaches, as they don't want to turn away business. I don't think they are concerned with the "negative aspects" you mention, other than not wanting to host an OnlyFans (or the like) model who is quite obviously under 18
I heard a BBC report this morning that Australia was banning social media accounts for those under 14. One can argue the pros and cons of such a rule, but I suspect it will spawn a vigourous industry in making false ID's.
The people who run gt.ru have no doubt given this matter considerable thought, and I hope they weigh in here.
@benjiknope-0 Even though there isn't a lot of new traffic in the Forum, using the search function (upper right of the screen that looks like 
is a good way to find discussions on things of interest.
Freeleech is good for helping new and/or low ratio seeders recover ratio and get back into the mainline. I don't think making a torrent (mine or someone else's) freeleech has a net benefit to my seedpoints or upload count, but I have a lot of both, and sometimes I'll spend to points to freeleech an older torrent--mine or someone else's--to give it new life. There's some older stuff on here (10+ years) that will soon go to Torrent Heaven w/o being freeleeched that I think new users would find interesting.
Just my opinion, of course.
@ianfontinell-0 said in How many people watch multiple porn videos, while they jack off?:
Me in particular, I really don't understand how their (yours included) brain works, not only I can only watch a single video at a time, it also must NOT be an orgy. There's something extremely overwhelming about having too many people on screen, guess I'm too anxious
I take the same approach. For me, the enjoyment of porn is the fantasy of watching video action and vicariously putting myself into the role of one of the models. If there are multiple videos, or even too many people in a video (as one has in an orgy), it's hard for me to do that. I also don't like some porn where the editor keeps switching scenes every three seconds or so, as I find it hard to keep track of the guy I'm fantasizing about. I think this is why some home-made porn (including that from fan sites) can be appealing, as it's often shot in a continuous scene with a single smartphone camera.
I think it's great that we have people in this community who use porn differently and are willing to share their view of it. We're the same, but different...a conundrum first enunciated by Aristotle (4th century BCE), but I digress...
While current traffic in the forum is very low, there's still a lot of good archived material, although it can be tricky to get to.
I especially like the "Jokes and Funny Stuff" topic (https://community.gaytorrent.ru/category/53/jokes-funny-stuff) and "Special Interest" (https://community.gaytorrent.ru/category/166/special-interest).
Also, the search function (the little magnifying glass icon at the upper right of the screen) can be handy if you have a specific question such as how to deal with a software problem, or even recommendations for a good toothbrush--if you search on those terms, you might find an answer without having to wait for someone to reply.
So, welcome to the forums, and while they might not be what you were expecting, there's still a lot of good stuff here. And, you can always add a new topic and see how people respond. I'd love to see a topic on "My most unusual/funniest/unexpected/worst etc. sexual experience.
@Thang88 The face looks like Matt Hughes, although Matt's cock is much longer. If it helps, the mains (electrical) outlets on the wall look like a European configuration, and it seems that most baits are from the US. I'll follow this thread, because he looks like a handsome lad, and I'd like to see more of him.
@leo2003 Ah, OK. Depending on the size of the collection and how much download buffer you have, you could set your torrent software to download some of the files (25% maybe?) and see how much they are then seeded out to other users. If they're popular, you might improve your ratio...and then you can download more.
@leo2003 I'm pretty sure it would count as downloaded content, even if you were the original source. (Someone who knows this stuff better than I do might want to weigh in here.)
I'm a bit confused, though, when you say you lost the original files but you don't want to stop seeding: If you don't have the files, how are you seeding them.
I know how frustrating it is to lose files.I hope you get over this hurdle soon.

@dizmiguel-0 Welcome to Gaytorrent and the Forums. I split my time between Calgary (Canada), London (UK), and LA.
I, too, am mildly annoyed by some endless stream of comments. Sometimes, when the number of comments reaches six or so, I'll add one suggesting that if people want to pursue the matter, they create a forum topic on it. Sometimes this works, but alas, a large majority of users do not use the forum at all. 
@raphjd said in Forum Topic/Post Bonus:
it's a mixed blessing as it added posts in the forums, but it also added a lot of forum spam.
If it adds topics of interest to the forum, that's a big plus, as traffic has slowed down in the last few years. But spam posts simply to harvest seed posts are a pain in the ass for everyone.
@gabisev Waiting is about the best we can do. If nothing happens in a week or so, you might try it again, and then abandon the cause. Users who have (or have deleted) the material don't want a "please re-seed" note every hour for a month. (OK, that's a little bit of an exaggeration.)
Also, I think you meant to say "zero seeders for a long time." It's seeders who have the material, and you'd like there to be several of them so you can get the material. (This has something to to with "swarms" that I don't fully understand, but that can be the topic of another thread.)
@cp2000 Thanks for your interesting post.
Somehow I had in mind that these videos took place in Rhode Island, but I don't recall how I formed that idea. The accents are clearly northeast US, but hard to localise further.
"Vinnie" might have used bait-and-switch, but not with every lad. My favourite (Tony) must have at least ten cum scenes (in addition to sucking Vinnie several times), so he'd have to be profoundly naive if he thought this was part of a straight porn casting. Some other guys, though, seem fixated on watching straight porn while being wanked or sucked, so perhaps they were baited.
It's a good series, and I'm glad this thread brought me back to it. The only thing I would change in the scenes is to not use the porn-standard "stop sucking before he cums so we can see it shoot," rather than having a cumshot into a closed mouth. I find that sexier, and frankly more real.
