DNS filtering only gets you so far. Its far, but certainly not at the end of the road. More complex and differently designed systems wont be bothered much.
Encrypted DNS or simply hosting legitimate stuff on the same domain cannot really be fully blocked entirely or make your life difficult.

I can change my screens too on desktop, pretty neat.
Unfortunately its a super simple implementation which doesnt take into account the brightness between different screens.

Ideally there should be a master slider and one per screen. The master slider should then use theother sliders current value as scaling factor to change them.
A more complex option could then also allow setting the brightness of each screen which would allow for better setting via the master slider. (not sure if this information is already available)

Its nice to meet the team, start nornal conversations not necessarily bound by work.
Getting to know the people in a way video calls rarely can fscilitate.
BUT how often depends on the team, the distances, the company, and most importantly how often this happens.

I really like my WFH, but its not a full WFH job, so we meet for important events like sprint planning every few weeks.
But thats only 1-2 hours away and most of the commute is long distance train, so i can work that time and still get paid.
Its nice seeing the team and other people in the company i would have never seen, it could be a bit less for me, maybe once a month would be better..

I also think many people only have their work colleagues as contact and little real friends to meet with outside of work.. after all one is paid and theother time you have to maintain your life constantly.

Selfhosting an assistant will probably work better and be much for privacy friendly

Better quality releases and more active users with much less leeches as they get thrown out.
Though there are many site admins with some complex here too.. your experience can vary.

And of course you need to contribute to the community, most trackers will grant you buffer for both uploading and keeping the torrent running. You want something, then you have to give back.
If the tracker doesnt give possebilities to build your buffer in multiple ways, other than just uploading, its usually a shit tracker.
And some are just super hard to impossible to get into. Start small, wait for open signups or just go to new trackers, they might get bigger over time.
Dont publicly beg for invites, you can humiliate yourself in private chats if you are into that.

BTRFS or ZFS and then you can just rollback to an earlier snapshot.

law enforcement is exactly that.. enforcement.
If there are no laws in place to force providers to do that, it cant be done via these means.
And if you cannot enforce because the provider is outside the jurisdiction, then you cant either.

And if you start forcing blocks, the users will adapt by either changing provider or simply evading the block.

Just keep it seeding?
Of course if you want both, best space saving would be to use the same file.
I have multiple servers, so it doesnt really matter anyways, one machine downloads and seeds via its SSD and theother is just for storage on HDDs. Though i could setup tiered storage in this scenario to be able to seed more with same SSD strorage amount.

You can downsample from BluRay, which would give you least loss.
But if you only have some good h264 version and want space savings, you can also reencode that, while probably loosing some small amount of quality, depending on your settings.
