Appoxo, do piracy w VPS/VPN and Private Trackers (Questions)
@Appoxo@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

Usually you do not have a static IP anyway. Sure you could probably backtrace the DHCP of your ISP to the date yout that IP got issued…But that is IMO a bit overly paranoid.

Though to be fair’ I don’t know why they don’t like VPNs for signups. Most likely to enforce IP based bans for not following rules or for entire banned countries.
If you don’t really care about the rules, just do it on signup but don’t connect US -> DE but instead US -> US. That way they may not care enough to enforce rules.
One tracker even mentioned that the rules are there. Some are strictly followed (like naming rules), while others are not followed as strictly.

privadesco,

Thanks for answering and for the proposed solutions.

About the DHCP backtrace, that is the (standard) procedure being avoided. I don’t think it’s paranoid, it’s just how it already works.

Keeboy, do piracy w Xmanager stopped working - logged out since yesterday, can't access

Delete Spotify and xmanger and reinstall worked for me (if your traveling make sure to use a VPN set to your home country when logging into spotify)

theshatterstone54,

if you’re traveling, use a VPN

Is there a way to circumvent that? VPNs usually come with a speed decrease

bblfrnz,

You need VPN only for login into the app once in two weeks, so, there’s no problem with it.

Thank you!!

I’ve started using alldebrid. It technically is torrents but not using my home network so I don’t need a VPN anymore. I use RealDebrid Client with my alldebrid account and it works with all the *arr services. Most torrents I can download at my full ISP speed.

I know it’s not what your asking for but just throwing the idea out there.

Didn’t know this was a thing! Does it still hold up as a shooter?

AstralPath,

Yes! 100%! Play it now! :)

I’m using Geek, they’re pretty good so far. I’ve found everything I’ve searched for on them. I don’t even search trackers anymore, with how fast and efficient Usenet is compared to torrents.

Skotimusj,

Thanks for the suggestions. I am looking into it currently!

trustnoone, do gaming w I watched 2 hours of starfield gameplay and an hour of review

Eh, for me, it has story and apparently I can romance people and shoot stuff. So it’s already up there for me. But can totally see how people will feel different. Especially if you felt any hype for this. Me however has had no hype for Bethesda games after fallout 76

Seems like the description of “No Man’s Skyrim” was a little off the mark. :( Not as in depth for space stuff as No Man’s Sky, or as story based as Skyrim.

Will be interesting to see how it evolves over time though!

I’ll reserve my take on the “No Man’s Skyrim” until I play it more myself and see how it unfolds.

jupy, do gaming w Suggestion for game streaming setup

as your switch is modded, you could install Moonlight to stream from your PC using Sunshine, but if it’s over WiFi you might hit latency issues :(

jabib,

Haven’t had issues over an AC1900 wife setup here!

NeryK, do gaming w Saint Row developer, Volition, is shutting down
@NeryK@sh.itjust.works avatar

That’s a shame that even a 30 year-old studio is just one commercial failure away from closure, even when part of a larger company. Then again, Volition’s output after Saints Row IV has been pretty middling… So it’s not that big of a surprise that they were on the chopping block.

mctoasterson, do gaming w CS Source communities?

Supposedly there are people who still play 1.6 so I’m sure anything is possible.

Thanks for aggregating this!

Havant played myself, but two twitch streamers I watch started with the Xbox copy and the load times were brutal. The steam version, apparently, felt much better to play reguardless of story quality.

AlexanderTheGreat,
@AlexanderTheGreat@lemmy.world avatar

I’ve opted to play it on my newly built PC as a crave those FPS aha. The load times have been pretty alright for me.

sylverstream,

Initial load time was very long, after that it was okay. Playing on xsx.

nosebleed, do gaming w What games have you played due to FOMO?

Minecraft.

Way back in its beta days, a couple of mates couldn’t put it down. They couldn’t explain why digging holes was fun nor placing cubes. I really didn’t get it after a demonstration from them. Eventually had a LAN with a mate that was vaguely curious but also didn’t think it was going to be interesting.

We didn’t sleep for the next 36hrs, nor notice it was a new day until my family got up and started making breakfast.

Did you two play much afterwards? I’ve played a few times with friends but I find it usually fizzles out after a couple months then it’s just me who hosts occasionally messing around.

nosebleed,

Fully the same here. Sometimes I get bouts of inspiration to hop on the server or organize to do something with the group we have, but always fizzles out after a few months as you say. Which is fine really, a lot of other good games I tend to circle back to over time just like minecraft.

Warhammer 40,000 Darktide

I really wanted to be in on it from the beginning to be along for the entire story as it develops, and ooh boy was that a mistake. Haven't played it since January and looking at the progress since then there isn't really much to draw me back in.

DetachablePianist, do piracy w Sanity Check Setup

I can’t speak to the paid ProtonVPN service, but their free tier doesn’t allow torrenting. They’ll disconnect you with a slap on the wrist error about it.

DreadPotato,

Seems fair TBH, you’re easily sending TBs of data through it, that’s not the intention of the free tier.

@Lettuceeatlettuce@lemmy.ml avatar

Yeah I found that out the hard way lol. Was just a soft warning. Premium tier allows P2P traffic and actually provides torrent-optimized servers too.
