Motivational Music in the Morning ... Bone Thugs in Harmony, Eternal (Audio) ... from the Album: E. 1999 Eternal (1995)

#MMitM1

The Sample — A Hidden Gem: "Eternal" samples music from the Sega Genesis fighting game Eternal Champions. Specifically, it contains samples of the "Character Bios Theme from Eternal Champions" composed for the 1993 fighting game. Eternal Champions was a Sega fighting game with a dark and distinctive concept — all the fighters in the game are dead, having been killed before they could complete their destiny. They are given a second chance at life by fighting each other in a tournament. The morose, mournful tone of the game's "Character Bios" theme reflects that — it is music about people who have died and are fighting for the right to return. DJ U-Neek built "Eternal" around that theme, and remarkably the sample was never formally cleared, meaning neither Armer's work nor Sega's ownership was credited in the liner notes — an unresolved mystery in hip-hop production history. The track interpolates a flute-like melody from Eternal Champions, creating a dark, haunting, atmospheric foundation over which Bone Thugs deliver their signature rapid-fire flows.

What the Song is About: "Eternal" is a declaration of dominance, loyalty, and indestructibility from the streets of East Cleveland — specifically St. Clair Avenue, which the group calls "the Clair." The song opens with Layzie Bone's now iconic spoken intro: "Straight from the muthafuckin' Land of the Heartless — five true thugs from the Double Glock — ready to pop to the dome — eternally, it's on." Each verse is delivered by a different member — Layzie's verse establishes the block-level reality: distributing llelo (cocaine), collecting the bankroll, rolling with nothing to lose, "Number One Assassin." Bizzy and Krayzie push into even darker territory — "ride to the darkside, feel the darkness" — the imagery of bodies in graves, hollow-point slugs, perpetual motion through the streets without rest. Wish Bone's verse channels Cleveland-specific pride and gang loyalty before the track closes with the hook hammering the central thesis: "keepin' 'em on the run with the shotgun / swang with a click tight claim." The word "eternal" itself is used both as a flex — we will never go away, we are here forever — and as a statement about the permanence of the thug identity and the East Cleveland community that produced it. Bone Thugs didn't see themselves as a moment. They saw themselves as permanent.

————— Theological Viewpoints —————

— The Sample as Accidental Theology: The fact that DJ U-Neek built "Eternal" on music composed for Eternal Champions — a game whose entire premise is dead fighters given a second chance — is theologically extraordinary whether intentional or not. The music was literally composed to represent people who have died, carrying their grief and unlived potential into a desperate fight for resurrection. Bone Thugs, rapping from a Cleveland community saturated with premature death, gang violence, and lives cut short, built their declaration of permanence on music that was already haunted by the dead. The sonic foundation of "Eternal" carries the theological weight of resurrection hope embedded in its very architecture.

— "Eternally Here to Stay" — The Defiance of Erasure: The repeated declaration of permanence — eternally here to stay, eternally it's on, nigga that's Bone — is the theological posture of a community that has been told repeatedly it doesn't matter, won't last, won't be remembered. The insistence on eternity from East Cleveland's streets is a refusal of annihilation — not just physical annihilation but cultural, historical, and existential erasure. The civil rights theological tradition called this somebodiness — the insistence, against all evidence to the contrary, that you are somebody, that you matter, that you will be remembered. "Eternal" is somebodiness delivered at 140 BPM.

— The Khaki Suits and High-Tech Boots as Sacred Dress: Layzie's line — "eternally here to stay in the khaki suits and the high-tech boots" — describes the specific uniform of the East Cleveland street. In liturgical theology, vestments matter. What you wear signals who you are, what community you belong to, what covenant you honor. The khakis and high-techs are the vestments of the Mo Thug covenant — the uniform of a specific community and a specific set of loyalties. The insistence that they will wear these forever is a declaration of fidelity to the community that made them, even as success offered the opportunity to dress differently and leave it behind.

— The Dead Fighters and the Communion of the Departed: Bone Thugs existed within a community of staggering loss. Members had seen friends and family die over the years, including their mentor Eazy-E. (GRAMMY) The Eternal Champions sample — music for the dead who fight on — creates an unspoken communion between the living rappers and the dead whom the album explicitly honors elsewhere, particularly on "Tha Crossroads." "Eternal" does not grieve openly — it asserts power — but the sonic foundation of dead warriors fighting for life gives the track a depth of meaning that the surface swagger does not fully reveal. The dead are present in the beat itself.

— "Nothing to Lose" as Theological Recklessness: Layzie's line "rolling with trues, nothing to lose" is simultaneously the most dangerous and the most spiritually significant claim in the song. In Christian mystical theology, the complete surrender of attachment — detachment — is considered the condition for full spiritual freedom. "Rollin' with trues / nothing to lose" is not the same as mystical detachment, but it carries the same structure: the person who has genuinely let go of the fear of loss acts with a freedom and force that the person clinging to comfort cannot access. From Ignatius of Loyola to John of the Cross to the martyrs, the willingness to lose everything has always been the condition for the most powerful spiritual witness. Bone Thugs from the Land of the Heartless — with nothing to lose — were operating in exactly that register, however secular the expression.

The McCartney Effect mid air art if you remember a while ago i made a random drawing of my dog character

well i actually i repurposed it from something i needed for The McCartney Effect so i decided to upload it lmao

so erm that just happened

BTIH

BTIH，简单来说，可以理解一个种子的标识符。

BTIH (BitTorrent Info Hash) These are hex encoded SHA1 hash sums of the "info" sections of BitTorrent metafiles as used by BitTorrent to identify downloadable files or sets of files. For backwards compatibility with existing links, clients should also support the Base32 encoded version of the hash.[2] xt=urn:btih:[ BitTorrent Info Hash (Hex) ] Some clients require Base32 of info_hash (Vuze for ex.).

一般来说，为长度40的SHA-1哈希。

BTIH本来只是一个获取种子的手段，但是，万能的迅雷出现了。。迅雷上很大一部分资源都是用BTIH索引的，也就是说，你只需要一个BTIH值就可以点播一部影片。

这个时候想要从BT种子计算出BTIH就是必须的了。

计算方法

根据BTIH的定义，其计算方法就是 SHA1(info section of a torrent file) 所以其关键是怎么从BT种子中找出其info段。

BEncode

种子文件是使用BEncode来编码的，关于BEncode编码规则：

Bencode uses ASCII characters as delimiters and digits.

An integer is encoded as ie. Leading zeros are not allowed (although the number zero is still represented as "0"). Negative values are encoded by prefixing the number with a minus sign. The number 42 would thus be encoded as "i42e", 0 as "i0e", and -42 as "i-42e". Negative zero is not permitted.

A byte string (a sequence of bytes, not necessarily characters) is encoded as :. The length is encoded in base 10, like integers, but must be non-negative (zero is allowed); the contents are just the bytes that make up the string. The string "spam" would be encoded as "4:spam". The specification does not deal with encoding of characters outside the ASCII set; to mitigate this, some BitTorrent applications explicitly communicate the encoding (most commonly UTF-8) in various non-standard ways. This is identical to how netstrings work, except that netstrings additionally append a comma suffix after the byte sequence.

A list of values is encoded as le . The contents consist of the bencoded elements of the list, in order, concatenated.

A list consisting of the string "spam" and the number 42 would be encoded as: "l4:spami42ee". Note the absence of separators between elements.

A dictionary is encoded as de. The elements of the dictionary are encoded each key immediately followed by its value. All keys must be byte strings and must appear in lexicographical order. A dictionary that associates the values 42 and "spam" with the keys "foo" and "bar", respectively, would be encoded as follows: "d3:bar4:spam3:fooi42ee". (This might be easier to read by inserting some spaces: "d 3:bar 4:spam 3:foo i42e e".)

There are no restrictions on what kind of values may be stored in lists and dictionaries; they may (and usually do) contain other lists and dictionaries. This allows for arbitrarily complex data structures to be encoded.
