  • It's really not, people just like to get nerdy about it because there's potential for there to not be overlap in what is findable.

    There's two components, an indexer (think pirate bay), and the provider (which is kinda like a shared seedbox). You just search the indexer to get an NZB for what you're looking for.

    I use NewsHosting as my provider, they have one of the best retention rates. They charge tons of money if you pay regular rates, but promo rates are like $25 a year. After the first year try to cancel and they'll give you the cheap rate everyone pays.

    In terms of open registration indexers, NZBGeek is open, I haven't had a problem with them. I also have DrunkenSlug, but they have limited registration.

    But yeah, I can find much more than on torrent sites, and it downloads at 10's of MB a second.






  • I would say it is gender neutral to male coded, diminutive in nature.

    You call a child "buddy." It is male coded, but because it refers to children it becomes more androgynous in nature.

    I've been in social contexts where in the local dialect it was gender neutral and status neutral, but in other contexts it is not so much male coded as it was to belittle.

    The US is the kind of place where if you're fucked, you're extra fucked, and they'll throw some salt in there for good measure.

    There really are no social services, you need a car to go anywhere, even living in one of the cheapest parts of the country its very expensive.
