Geek fun: BitTorrent and Little Snitch
Date: December 12, 2005 10:37PM
BitTorrent minimizes server stress by connecting to multiple locations.

Little Snitch alerts you to every new server connection until you tell it otherwise.

The fun part is watching LS go crazy when you start a BT download. Lots of domains, all over the darned place, incl. a few in Canada.

When this gets boring, you just tell LS to allow everything, so you don't have to keep clicking "Allow."

(Well, I thought it was fun.)

Sounds...

Interesting.

Just because it has two clutches, shifts faster, uses a torque converter or has near-infinite gear ratios, requires less driver intervention and is more efficient doesn't make it better in my opinion.

kind of the "close all the pop-up ad windows before they propogate and crash your system" game we used to play before Safari and it's "block pop-up windows" feature.
