if you still save (LEGAL) porn onto your hd, WHY?
with today's fast internet and major porn sites almost having no buffering times, I don't see a need for it?

A definitive JEDI post. The wrong, the grammar, and the wrong. Classic.

He did emphasize "legal".

Of course. What am I going to do if the internet goes down? Use my imagination? Cripes.

I don't generally bother with non-static porn. I have JPGs from many years ago. Most of that kind of stuff doesn't appeal to me, but a small percentage does. All completely legal stuff, BTW, I have no interest in pediphilia or other weird shit. I don't bother looking for stuff to download anymore. Funny thing about a picture of a beautiful sexy woman is that the woman pictured never gets older!

I'm pretty sure she does.

I like how the word hard drive is used in such a way to imply that there's just one.



Oddly enough, no I don't actually have any porn. TBH it's never even did anything for me, so I never really bothered.

On similar subject though I am a fan of keeping stuff locally. If my internet goes down, I still have something to do entertainment wise if I have it local. TV shows, movies, etc.

Yes because I hate all the ads I have to sift through on websites.

I get the point of the OP, and while i would like to say no, the answer is yes.
1. Because i have a secret stash of films with Brigitte Lahaie, a 1970s goddess in human form, back when porn had the same production as non-porn films.
2. I also have a folder called PORN just so that in the event of me accidentally getting a girlfriend, she can find it (and figure out the stuff i like).

But most of my nudiemag equivalent is just links in firefox.

It's a sin to watch this stuff! It's the devils's tonic!

The Catholic church told me.

No?

Well... of course. The Catholic church wants you to make more little Catholics. You can't do that if you're wasting your man juice on porn... you gotta be putting that stuff into your wife who isn't allowed to use birth control.

LMAO. That is so true.

How many of those slots have drives in them? How many of those drives do you use?

Who dosn't have porn on their systems?

That's an older pic so the 4 bottom SAN enclosures are out. They were neat as if you hook it up to a computer you see each drive individually, so it allowed me to use mdadm raid. Problem is they use about 200w per enclosure and the drives are proprietary. So didn't want to trust that for anything.

The top enclosure was added after and is still there, it's my main file server/NAS. There's a couple empty slots but it's almost full. I have a bit of room for expansion to grow raid arrays. Most of the drives are small by today's standards though, biggest one is like 3TB. I'm due to retire the raid 5 array that has like 8 1TB drives. I could replace that with a single raid 10 with 6-8 8TB drives and it would give way more space. It's mostly VMs and stuff on there that take up the most space. Disk images, and other stuff like that too and of course just every day files like documents and dev environments etc.

1) HD space is cheap

2) Some people have really really weird tastes and I don't want to find out that my favorite Brazilian transgender giraffe on hippo furry snuff porn site has been closed down by the authorities, ummmm, I mean, man, it would suck for some people if they were into that sort of thing and couldn't get it anymore.

 

[s0me0nesmind1]

The term... ahem... legal is definitely a determining factor in most people's responses one would think.

DUBBED !!?!EXCLAMATIONMARK1!
I NEVER!!

All the shagging and grunting is in the original French, my good sir. For i am a p0rn connoisseur, not just a spank monkey.

I dont want to piss on your pizza but that's very much not how it's going to work!

Good choice on the spank bank material though!

 

[Muse]

I'm pretty sure she does.

Yeah, she gets older, but the woman I see in the picture doesn't. 'Tis odd. I sometimes think when I look at a favorite picture of a scantily clad damsel that she doesn't look anywhere as good now. It's a bit depressing. But the picture still looks great!!!

Except if the power goes out. Then you have candles and flashlights, maybe a fireplace, a book etc. if you can read it.

No?

Your sin is to believe everything that the Catholic church tells you.
