I'm pretty new to the scene and am trying to build up a content library for a jellyfin instance I'm running. I know a lot of the higher quality torrents are on private trackers so im intested in joining one but the ones ive found seem pretty closed. Even the ones with open sign-ups seen to want proof of my reputation with other traskers, so I was wondering if anyone had advice on how to start out. Are there any trackers I should look into?

It can quickly become a national security concern when you realize the people making the chips have total control over the systems built with them. Modern computing is built around the idea of "trusted computing" where certain pieces of hardware control the root of trust.

The ability for the US to maintain its backdoors into foreign computing systems and preventing China from gaining that ability is the same cold war crap but in the cyber rather than the economic domain.
Looks like excalidraw to me. I use it all the time to quickly make diagrams like these.
