finished hail mary, wasted a gigabyte
Jun. 7th, 2026 09:15 pmi finished Project Hail Mary. it was awesome! afterward i went to Panera and i had some nice soup-inna-bread-bowl and when i came back someone had downloaded Bull of Heaven's Even to the Edge of Doom from me. it took 8 minutes. for reference, Even to the Edge of Doom is basically 24 hours of the same noise over and over again. and, also for reference, most people who download stuff from me finish downloading an entire album's worth of music in about 2 minutes. i dont know why i keep it in my library, i rarely listen to it. but someone decided to download it from me, and it took 8 minutes, and that track is about 1GB, and im kind of pissed. that's 1GB i could use for other stuff. i have a quota, man! there are faster and more reliable means of getting that track. i got it off of the internet archive and it took like half a minute and it was a zip file and so it took like 5 MB or something. i don't know why i keep that track. ugh! but, uh, anyway, Project Hail Mary is a really good novel. i plan to watch the movie soon. not really any notes there. probably gonna delete the track. i would just set it to private in my Soulseek settings, but i would then have to have a share for each artist folder, since i can't just tell it "yo yo yo dont send people this track" i have to tell it not to share a specific share which right now i have one share for my entire music folder. that sucks.
