Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ

Let's just all stop and appreciate that libgen is a thing in the internet. It has saved me so much money with very overpriced math textbooks during college when my family was low-income. It contains virtually all the books, and even obscure ones. It provides low barriers to entry for knowledge for people wanting to advance their career, and perfect for finding epubs for books to send to my kindle. (I buy physical copies of books, it's just convenient to have a kindle instead of volumes of lord of the rings while travelling)

Overall, this is what the internet promised. Fast, easy, universal access to information. It sucks that governments are trying to take it down, and do what governments do best which is to restrict the flow of information and restrict freedom.

10/10, libgen is the best thing in the internet. Long live libgen

Shitty movies and shitty music needs to be seeded more than good music and movies.

set the ratio limit to like...10 or higher.

Are there pirated contents that you very like and eventually give money to the creator, and where do you find the creators?

Scribd has some pdfs I want to download but they charge 15 dollars a month to be able to download stuff and require you to view an ad for every few pages you read using the in-site viewer. Does anyone know a way to get past this and just download or read it without the subscription or ads?

I recently asked if MAS was save to activate windows, it turns out it was as I hoped.

However, I've one last doubt: I downloaded the iso from MASSGRAVE (it-it_windows_10_consumer_editions_version_22h2_updated_may_2024_x64_dvd_49ddadb6.iso) and I installed that already.

Also, I logged in my accounts and used sensible passwords already, should I be worried about this? (I ask because some pirates said the ISO should have been downloaded from Microsoft website :/ ).

Please let me know your opinions

You have to choose one of 2 exam papers. Would you choose the second subject ? the one revolving around piracy denial that is.

I'm installing windows 10 right now and even though it's not required to activate it, I'd rather do it until I can.

I've googled quite a bit about it and there's no complaints, but I'd like an additional confirmation by the piracy community here.

I appreciate any opinion

Sorry if this place its the wrong but I'm learning about fediverse and idk how I do to connect my sub with my instance that i use

I need contact for owner this lemmy instance to federate or I can do with my own hands?

I remember 5 years ago Musescore allowed free downloads of sheet music with an account. Now, I'm trying to get back in to playing the piano, and I was surprised that they're requiring you to pay, so fuck em

Pretty easy to do with Tampermonkey. They also show you how to set it up on iOS, which is pretty convenient for nabbing sheet music in my iPad

Ahoy! I want to share files between iphone & pc. I just discovered that W11 home edition doesn't allow remote access. Microsoft wants $99USD to upgrade to pro. Does anyone know of alternative means? Thanks.

I never had any problem with torrentgalaxy, but now, when going to the new domain I get an error (SEC_ERROR_UNKNOWN_ISSUER) related to the certificate, that no one seems to get. Anyone else in the same boat?

Run your own unbound or bind resolvers!

I'm looking for alternative dedicated server hosts / VPS that go in the same direction as the policies that njal.la and which has a history of not sharing data during legal requests to host a torrent tracker. I'd like to know if there are any alternatives! Thanks :)

Edit: The main things I'd like is to be able to pay in cash or Monero

I hope this is the right forum.

@everyone Due to a DMCA takedown notice, most anime extensions have been removed from the official extensions list. Please note that there is nothing the mods can do against this situation.

While the FBI is doing its important work, I mean.

For example used to it would show HBO Max, Netflix, etc. Now it doesn't do that and I can't figure out how to make it do it again.

Looks like CreamAPI is not affected. Looks like a Paradox games fan's worst nightmare.

There's a documentary that's more than a decade old that now only exists on Amazon Prime. I have searched everywhere for this but the website (and thus DVDs being sold) doesn't exist any more, there are no torrents, no second hand DVDs for sale that I can find online..... I'm OK with buying the doco from Amazon (albeit not happy about giving Amazon any money) but once I've bought it I don't want to be locked into Amazon's infrastructure (I do not trust streaming services to keep such niche videos available indefinitely).

So how would I go about downloading and removing DRM from Amazon videos?

I read an old post about mp4decryptgui but that hasn't been updated in 3 years so I don't know if it works any more.

The only other methods I've found involve buying expensive Windows only software (I'm on Linux but can dual boot if absolutely needed).

Thanks!

(Also please excuse the freshness of my account - for some reason Kbin threw an error every time I tried to post using my usual account.)

Sounds ominous.

Where to now?

Edit: The claim is that they're offline for maintenance - not sure how credible the source is though or why it was worded to intimate otherwise.

Ahoy!

I recently got a new TV and I need some advice on how to best take advantage of my setup.

My current setup: I have an old laptop as my homeserver. I have Pihole on it. I also have setup a VPN with Gluetun that other docker containers are using. To watch movies I have a Kodi + Real Debrid setup on my actual laptop and I would use that with an HDMI cable to watch movies on my old TV.

What has changed now is that I have an Android TV, and to be perfectly honest it was a bit of a hassle to use the laptop to watch stuff especially TV shows because between each episode I would have to get up and use the laptop to play the next episode, and I have to set up my laptop each time because it's my main device and I need to take it with me everywhere. I have the Kore app on my phone but that wouldn't work if my VPN is running on either my phone or laptop, which usually is the case.

From what I read, the simples solution would be setting up stremio on the TV with RD and ditch the VPN. However I would prefer if there was a way to route the traffic through VPN. Do you guys know any better solutions?

Thanks in advance for your help. P.S. Cat pic for your troubles

So I saw this post here a couple days ago about music piracy and got interested in soulseek. I've installed nicotine in a docker container and started searching for some music. I've found some pretty hard to find music and this album my father used to have in vynil when I was a kid. Cool. But the files had PRIVATE written on them.. Tried to download but the user did not share them with me. My question is: what's the point of sharing folders in a p2p program and denying access to these folders? I mean..just don't share it if you won't let anybody download it. Am I missing something in order to download this album?

Edit: hey guys I sent a message to the user asking if he could share the folder with me and he answered that he'd added me and I could download whatever I wanted! Great! Thanks for the help!
