Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ

(Where I first found this)

I have lots of torrents downloaded through transmission, which I would like to continue seeding through i2p via the XD client, without having to re-download the files. How do I "move" my seeding to i2p? Do I have to upload the torrents to an i2p torrent tracker, or can I avoid that?

Would you recommend this in the first place?

Sorry for the stupid question folks, help is appreciated, even if not specific to these clients. Thanks in advance!

fmovies has been gone almost a month. I should have added "FBI" up there but really they used FBI to shoot down the service, not be like them.

I don't understand when these companies are going to learn that sharing their IP is going to get them more money than being so fractured.

I started using sudo-lol and seems okay. Streaming can be hinky at times but it works for most of the things I want to watch.

I know that torrenting can be a thing but sometimes I just want to watch and not deal with a whole finding a torrent, download, and then watch workflow.

I've decrypted a few videos of a worldwide event that includes all types of sports and stuff that is now happening in France (can't mention the name explicitly), and I've been able to get the entire opening ceremony and other types of videos. Where can I post/talk to the groups that distribute these videos so I can contribute to them?

My young cousin is big into planes and is in a flight club, he really wants that specific simulator. Does anyone know where I could get the full version from?

I'm trying to download Many Sides of Jane. All the torrents I can find are dead, and while I tried StreamFab and KeepStreams, both of them said they wouldn't work because of DRM (and I thought DRM circumvention was the whole reason they exist!) How can I get this show?

P.S. It's on philo.com with a free 7 day trial.

I’d like to prioritize bandwidth for trackers where ratio is hard and de-prioritize trackers where almost everything is freeleech. Is there a way to do this?

Hi there,

I want to download this ebook as an epub https://www.chbeck.de/petersdorff-ewige-brunnen/product/35603774

I can't find it anywhere. Where can I fand ebooks that are not on annas archive?

I had a Youtube Subscription mainly for using Youtube Music since last year. I used to be on Newpipe before that. However, the mobile app always made be feel uneasy. From not being able to choose system wide video quality for all Youtube videos at once[ seriously, there is like 'High' or 'Data Saver' only and explicit options are available per videos only ] to Youtube nudging me to purchase/join a Youtuber's membership channel really irked me [I just paid you, Youtube ; why are you constantly asking me to pay more for something I don't want? Why can't I disable those notifications ?]

I have some time remaining on my subscription but converted to Tubular [Newpipe fork with Sponsorblock] simply because it doesn't treat it's end users like trash. Even for YTM, I switched to Revanced version which offered endless customization. I could hide useless stuff like cast, share buttons to even functions in the Account tab. The granular control was so much that I was able to get a simplistic neat looking UI setup.

In the transition, I understand, I lose some of my playlists [under a throwaway Google account since I don't wish to risk my main one getting banned] but I understand that the only true way anyone controls their music[or any form of data is by truly owning them and streaming services don't allow that]. It might sound stupid, but I have been downloading music from Soulseek for some time and now just plan to transfer some of my favorites over to the SD card.

It was never a money problem. It was an experience problem. I paid money to Google and all I got was Shorts, Games and other stuff I didn't wanted. I never got customization or fine grained controls. The open source community offers that. Sorry for the long rant.

While trying to find a torrent for a show, I became curious about how others are creating the torrents I know and love. Is ripping a video from a streaming service relatively easy? Are there tools y'all would recommend?

Don't you hate it when that game you used to play, vanishes from your library? Or what if you download it, but it doesn't work anymore because it's a single-player with an online only DRM. Or you're waiting for the DENUVO crack, but it never comes and the games goes EOL and forgotten? Well, turns out someone had enough and decided to start a campaign for it. If you pay for media, you may want this. If you like it free, someone needs to crack first it, and that doesn't always happen. So you may want this too.

Spread the message. If you're European, seriously consider voting. We don't own digital movies, and if we don't put a stop to this, more games will follow. Make the pirate party proud.

Smiling friends pirate's games video

One day many years ago I had too many drinks and being stupid and naive and I bought adobe cs5. I still use it on the same computer I installed it a decade ago. Activated and installed only once. Today they revoked the access to it. Clicking the link they say "revoked because purchased from an untrustworthy reseller"

Yeah... untrustworthy reseller, look at the invoice and see who sold&shipped that physical copy...

Contacted support, they said that they won't do anything about it because it's EOL.

Moral of the story: don't do like me. If buying isn’t owning, piracy isn’t stealing. Never give your money to Adobe.
