rah, rok temu do piracy w Can Pirate's Bay be considered "safe" if it is used only for non-executable multimedia content?

The Pirate’s Bay

I think you mean “The Pirate Bay”?

spiritedpause, rok temu do piracy w Is torrentgalaxy blocking users with adblock?

The best alternative is one that you can self-host and/or isn’t centralized.

My favorite option right now is torrents-csv.ml, since it’s “a collaborative repository of torrents, consisting of a searchable torrents.csv file.”

Basically, the author of the project scrapes the torrent DHT network and compiles a csv of all the torrent magnet links into a CSV file that’s searchable on this site. You can selfhost your own private instance of the site by following the instructions on the repository here: git.torrents-csv.ml/heretic/torrents-csv-server

I saw it a bit of time ago… how safe it is? The access is not centralized, but the data it gets in it is, right? Or it is a service in the same webserver the one that does the scraping?

Will look into it when I got time… always is docker, jeez…

Basically, the author of the project scrapes the torrent DHT network

Is that accurate? Where is DHT mentioned?

Neither their github nor their main site makes any mention of DHT, also don’t see any DHT scraper in the git page git.torrents-csv.ml/heretic but maybe I’m not looking in the right place?

Someday, but I need a device to run that on.

zcd, rok temu

You can run it on literally anything including a virtual machine, android tv box, old laptop from the trash…

My current laptop might as well be from the trash lol. I do have old android devices but that seems inefficient especially with battery concerns. I do have an old android tv box I never got working. Maybe that’s something I’ll look into. Thanks.

Might as well use nextdns then

Any media can contain exploits, for the most part if you stick to reputable uploaders you should do alright but it’s essentially an unavoidable problem. Keep your media player up to date

TheHobbyist, rok temu do piracy w If all adblocks get deleted, would you still pirate?

For people who pirate because they can’t afford the increasingly more expensive games, how does the removal of adblocks change anything?

sovietknuckles, rok temu

I think they’re talking about ads on download pages making it more difficult to click the correct download button when pirating

Pulp, rok temu

Using those sites is just asking for trouble

sovietknuckles, rok temu

Agreed

sanzky, rok temu do gaming w What are some games that "spin" failure states?

I have fond memories about Prince of Persia (the 2008 incarnation). it was a beautiful game and you basically could not die. your companion (a beautiful woman, because originality) would just rescue you in the last second.

If you are a bit paranoid download it into a safe box and re-encode the file.

iHUNTcriminals, rok temu (edited rok temu) do piracy w If all adblocks get deleted, would you still pirate?

It would just bring back street crime and physical boosting and robbery. Same thing for blocking porn… all the creepy 70/80/90s shit would come back…

theKalash, rok temu

I really hate ads, too. But I don’t think I would be turning to street crime because of them.

iHUNTcriminals, rok temu (edited rok temu)

Idk I guess I mean like boosted vendors. In 90s and early 00 I used to go to expos or even certain street vendors and they would have boosted or ripped movies and software.

And in terms of porn I mean sex spots scattered around cities and towns.

theKalash, rok temu

But why would this happen because of ads?

I don’t see this direct link between adblockers and being able to pirate stuff.

Anticorp, rok temu do games w PSA: If you still have a Mojang account for Minecraft: Java Edition, you have less than a week left to migrate to a Microsoft account to avoid profile deletion

Does this mean we’ll need to pay for the game again if we don’t do it in time?

lazycouchpotato, rok temu

That does appear to be the case at this moment.

hoshikarakitaridia, rok temu (edited rok temu)

Sidenote, I have a feeling that’s straight up illegal under contract law. IANAL though.

Edit: Just so ppl have something specific: you bought access to the service. It’s probably gonna be limited in the User Agreement as “if this service has to be shut down, you agree to lose your access and you don’t sue to get your money back”. But this is a backend migration and I’m fairly sure this is not something they had in their original contracts. That’s why sniff a broken contract and when they don’t refund your money, I sniff broken laws.

If it’s not, it should be.

We can write laws and vote then into power, we can fuck up whatever company we want to.

It has to be executed to have any danger, so you’d need a zero day exploit for your media player, even then it should be contained at user level rather than system. I’ve not really heard of it happening, but it’s theoretically possible I guess, would take a really bad coding mistake. Keep your players updated and you should be fine.

You can try a private DNS, easy to set up in Android and blocks ads in most apps and browsers

Are there downsides to using these?

hellequin67, rok temu

None that I can think.

They’re no slower from what I see on daily use and both are privacy focused.

WeirdGoesPro, rok temu do piracy w If all adblocks get deleted, would you still pirate?

I haven’t used a tracker with ads in over a decade.

panmeek, rok temu do piracy w Separate qBittorent admin container?

I’m not sure if that’s what you mean but if you’re using docker compose there’s a variable called WEBUI_PORT

matey, rok temu

That just changes the port of the bundled UI; it doesn’t allow you to connect a UI to a separate client.

panmeek, rok temu

oops sorry my bad

JebanuusPisusII, rok temu

Do you want to have a single UI for multiple clients?

matey, rok temu

Other way around - I want to have multiple UIs for a single client.
