@lololulu19 said in Removing the guilt of being gay:

...The only person in the world that needs to know that he is gay is ME. And I already know that.

I already send him porn daily.. and he accepts it, but doesn't really acknowlege it. In this way, my young friend will hopefully get the idea that he can be gay, and still think of himself as being straight. Of course, over time.. that delusion would fade away and he would admit to himself that he is gay.
What do YOU think?

The only one that needs to know he is gay is YOU? Seriously?

Sending someone porn daily in hopes that he will get the idea that he can be gay. That his delusions fade away...

What do I think - I think the term for that is GROOMING and goes back to all those scary stories they would tell kids about evil faggots recruiting kids to be gay. Are you actually trying to be poster child for the homophobic right???

As @bi4smooth said - examine your motives here.

I very much appreciate the stuff with a bit of a fantasy plot before sex. The image quality today is so much better, but the direct to the urologist and proctologist close up view loses me and all the in/out starts looking the same and gets boring very fast.
Will we ever have things like Jean-Daniel Cadinot full stories with hard core sex or even the early Falcon International or BelAmi movies? I doubt it, they took time and much more creativity to make that is not rewarded today. Most are now designed for the web and to allow people to get off quickly.
It's not that different than young people now seeing something like a letter or email with full paragraphs and actual punctuation as hopelessly boring and prefer/use a text with everything abbreviated and a couple of emojis.

@WikiDude Great response. Actually explained a bit how it works then gave a very clear answer to the specific question.

@GareMyster said in Copyright Enfringement - Information:

I've read the rules over, and over, and over, but I don't find any rumors that these files are copyrighted, considering I've downloaded them elsewhere.

I don't want to get into a discussion on DMCA, I just want to point out an error in your thinking. Just because you have downloaded files from someplace else, doesn't negate the original owners copyright. It's no different than if I steal your car then give it to someone. Whether the 3rd person knows if it was stolen or not, it is still your car and you can call the cops if you see them with it.

@Kowmei It's actually one of my favorite forms of sex. I have more sensation when it's rubbing my taint and the back of my sack than I do when penetrated. Because his cock isn't as 'trapped' like it would be by the sphincter, the top can't go crazy or it just slides out. So it works much better for love making than "fuck the shit out of you" wild sex. This doesn't require any douching and afterwards a washcloth cleans things up quite quickly so not much reason to tell him no. LOL

I use qBittorrent and have managed to create, upload, and download on my Mac quite easily.

@Rotron I admit that I wasn't so sure about watching this when it was in Korean, but I put on the CC in English and it was definitely entertaining. The guys are super well built and I umm warmed up nicely watching. Thanks for the tip!

@justanedflan When I first saw this, I thought that made sense, but then have thought about it a bit and respectfully disagree. That would be "rewarding" the most popular, hence easiest to get, torrents. The ones that I want to reward are the seeders that upload harder to find items. That gives the community the widest variety of choices, not just the most popular.

@lololulu19 The studios have never paid well. They may pay a couple hundred dollars per scene, but it's once and done. There are no residuals that pay them more if it is a hit or per view, that all goes to the studio. So going on Onlyfans or Chaturbate can actually accumulate more money since it is an ongoing income stream.

@bi4smooth I've seen rumors that the NordVPN Socks5 servers being disabled, but I have not had major issues with them and have literally traded several terabytes using it in just the past couple of months.

I'm using atlanta.us.socks.nordhold.net right now and leave it set in qBittorrent on my iMac.

I'm set up using Nord's SmartDNS to allow better access to protected foreign sites like BBC, not Cloudflare. I don't think that should affect the Socks5 connecting, just noting it is different.

Brokeback Mountain

The first gay PORN I ever saw was a magazine (STARS, issue 13 [Tommy Wilde cover]) - I was hooked (subscribed to the mag and spilled GALLONS of cum over the pics!).

OMG - I remember that magazine and that issue! It had personal ads in the back if I am thinking of the same magazine. I found one ad that I swear was from a guy at new job I had started who wasn't out. If the ad was really his, he had quite specific tastes in men and I lacked the necessary melanin and umm, proportions to meat his needs...

@bi4smooth I had to laugh seeing your comment about scattering files about. I download things to my collection and generally leave them to seed at least a couple of weeks. But yes, they get renamed to be Plex friendly and organized to go where the rest of similar ones are.

There are some that I think will be among harder ones for people to download, that I try to leave together and keep the seeding going for months and a few for years. But generally, if it is just run of the mill porn, watch it once and delete...

@ianfontinell said in Why do new upscaled posts immediately get hit with a 1-star rating?:

If you just run an AI software to "enhance" the image you might be objectively losing data as opposed to the desired effect. But a proper job can lead to fantastic results. Much more important than having the proper software it is having the proper knowledge on what you are doing... I just assume 99% of the people doing it in their homes don't.

I'm not a colector, I put much more value into efficiency rather than having the source material. I prefer smaller files with modern encoding rather than a 5GB DVD ISO for example. Put that same 5GB ISO against an "enhanced" version and I'll have the ISO anytime...

I have to disagree on the software not being important. Yes, there are a lot of video tools that can "enhance" images with lots of possible ways to tweak them that most people don't know how to use. BUT, that is where artificial intelligence is starting to shine. I'm not saying it is fully there yet, but each year it gets better and better. Those 99% of people who don't know what they are doing, soon won't have to know all that much.

I greatly appreciate when an older filmed movie can be cleaned and upgraded to be viewable on my big screen. I'm talking 20th century movies, so most of the smaller files that float around are complete garbage and were made 20 years ago. So, yes, it is nice to be able to go back to a (more) original source and use modern encoding from that and not a crappy 400 - 600mb avi file.

I'm not talking taking a video that was originally recorded straight to video at HD and "enhancing" it to 4k. In that case I probably agree with you, it might be losing data and the gain isn't going to be worth it.

But taking a classic Cadinot movie that was originally made on film, then digitized to DVD 20 years ago and trying to eliminate the graininess and correct the coloring that was messed up when it was clumsily digitized 20 years ago? I can't wait to see what the AI enhanced software will be able to do with it!

I'm not concerned about efficiency, I have 25TB of storage and a GB Internet connection, I want something that will look good on an 80" TV not a phone.

@drekkin should be, I'm in the US

@drekkin If it works, there are 16 Jean-Daniel Cadinot DVDs that I uploaded the full MKVs for and are still seeding. All about 26 weeks ago and with his full name in the torrent like these -

Maurice et les Garçons (1994) Jean-Daniel Cadinot -https://www.gaytor.rent/details.php?id=8ef655e13065fd1dbcee19b59378f66cec688c700c748f18
Pension Complète (1988) Jean-Daniel Cadinot

@drekkin I have put a lot of them up as direct MKV files that only did a straight convert from DVD. They are at the same 3-4gb file size as the VOBs were.
Would that work? Or do you need the actual image?

This is one I have here -
