The Pirate Bay's Oldest Torrent Is Revolution OS

jrepin writes "After nearly 9 years of seeding The Pirate Bay's oldest working torrent is still very much alive. Interestingly, the torrent is not a Hollywood classic nor is it an evergreen music album. The honor goes to a pirated copy of Revolution OS, a documentary covering the history of Linux, GNU and the free software movement."

    The Pirate Bay's oldest working torrent is still very much alive

    In other news, the oldest living man is still alive, and the oldest standing structure hasn't yet fallen down!

    Not everyone lives in California.

    Okay, see, right there? You just lost 90% of Slashdot, either to blowing their minds out of their ears or to complete stodgy disbelief that the world ISN'T split into exactly four areas: California, Flyover Country, Japan, and Miscellaneous.

    Oh, I'm sorry, sir. I'm anaspeptic, phrasmotic, even compunctious to have caused you such pericombobulation.

    I'm more impressed by the torrent of the whole geocities webpages (600GB+) with only one seeder.

    Just a documentary about the moon landing should land on the moon?

    Ugh, Americans. I bet you couldn't even point out Miscellaneous on a map.
