or in other words, BT devices broadcast their names only in pairing mode, so you know only the names of devices you are paired with.

all other devices continue to be there, but normally not shown, because you don’t know them.

Until you pair, there’s no reason for showing them

depending on your technical aptitude, you could wipe iOS and install linux, I’m sure there are projects allowing that.

large part of Europe also.

also yearly before tax, because employers do not need to know about other incomes and thereof how much money you pay in taxes. you can tell, but they don’t need to know.

when they hire you, they don’t know about your taxes, anyway. they put the ad, and if you’re hired and have other incomes, you’ll pay more taxes out of it.

yearly because taxes are paid yearly.

some people are paid weekly, some monthly.

so yearly becomes the comparison to help taxes and compare across the market which might pay at different frequency.

it helps account for your budget and their budget.

if you don’t care about budgeting or calculate taxes, you make the math.

if someone shrugs with pretty good

or shrugs with good

to me the former is still better than the latter.

I don’t see a way for pretty good to mean less than good

Also, why can’t videos use torrent technology to serve the data by other viewers?

from what i read, they do.

i think the problem is the kind of distributed systems it was designed to be vs the kind we are talking about.

PT won’t be, at the current state of propagation of content, redundancy and accessibility of content, a replacement for YT or similar.

it could be, but today it cannot.

there is another post mentioning how if certain Lemmy instances keep growing they’ll need economic support.

it smells PT, the way it’s organised today, needs support right now.

there are various ways to optimise data propagation and replication for scalability of content.

I think the discussion needs to be open towards this question

one reason which come to mind is Stream-ability.

if you download the video and play it, it might be fine. but users normally want to stream it.

to stream it, the endpoint from where you stream it needs to be near you.

if you are in the US and will stream something from a European server, you’ll have problems. and even if you don’t, that cannot be considered the norm.

that’s why people use CDNs, and they are a huge business.

so there’s an advantage to have a close to you instance, which has as much locally present content as possible
