d3lta19, do piracy w Finding mainstream media on usenet - am I doing it wrong?

I have the same indexers as you, but I use ninja and farm for my servers. I have no problem whatsoever finding anything relatively popular from the last 20 years or so. I would look at your servers

Stright, do piracy w What apps/programs should I get

What are some software that you have a need for?

editilly,

Calculators, Editors, Call Apps, Population simulators, map projection programs, paid newspapers, offline sea maps.

That’s the ones I can think of right now

B3_CHAD, do piracy w Is anyone concer about denuvo on switch?

Yeah, it sucks but then what can we do to prevent it… absolutely nothing. We have only one person willing to crack denuvo for a select few games and who knows when she might quit. Video game piracy has been in a tricky spot for sometime now.

DudePluto, do piracy w Having a hard time settling on a VPN

I’d recommend deciding what you’re looking for in a VPN, then using r/VPN’s comparison guide to find which one suits your wants.

Is this the best method? Idk, but it’s what I did and I’m pretty satisfied. I decided that the most important factors to me were port-forwarding, price, speed, leak protection, and encryption - basically in that order. Using that criteria I settled on AirVPN, and I have no complaints so far (one month in).

Some people care more about ethics, or ownership, or what have you. So what you think is the best VPN will depend on your needs. There’s no perfect VPN anymore, imo

Edit: As others have pointed out, some VPNs also come in optional packages. Ones such as Proton. That’s something else to consider if you’re in the market for stuff like antivirus or secure email

DonnieDarkmode,

I’ll check it out! I’ve used trustworthy compilation lists to pick my PSU and PDF software so I don’t see the problem hahaha

PatheticGroundThing, do gaming w "X is about to change forever!"

The sooner you stop expecting anything from games journalists, the better off you’ll be.

upstream,

I also did the same with movie journalists way back. Found their opinions rarely matched mine.

IMDb used to be a much better indicator, but after around 2010 where everyone suddenly started voting it got a lot more diluted.

It had obviously started on that trajectory before, but smartphones really catapulted it ahead.

bblfrnz, do piracy w 5th Edition D&D books?

Search for The Amber Room in tg, it’s basically a new Trove.

Smoked_Brie, do gaming w [PS4] What are some other games with both social and other gameplay, ala Persona and Stardew Valley?

Wylde Flowers on Apple Arcade! I believe it also just came to Switch as well. Similar to Stardew Valley, but with a little more magic and voice acting. :)

I think if you enjoyed the beauty in Hyper Light Drifter, then you will be entranced by Tunic. Bonus points for being one of the best puzzle exploration games of all time.

Spiritfarer is very, very pretty as well. It is dripping it atmosphere and I often found myself just afk breathing it all in.

AbelianGrape,

Not only is tunic beautiful; the experience is amazing. It’s even better if you try to solve the main optional puzzle as you go.

Definitely agree that it’s one of the best.

Taako_Tuesday,

Tunic is an amazing experience, I filled multiple pages of a notebook trying to figure out the puzzles, I wish I had more games that made me do that

Sons Of The Forest is surprisingly detailed, but you don’t have much time to take in the sights and the foliage when there’s cannibals chasing you through the woods.

jodie, do piracy w To those who use IPTV services, why?

I did the same thing at first. However, many times those free websites are very unstable, especially when I was in the middle of watching something exciting. It's quite frustrating and makes you question life. On top of that, the constant ads were annoying. Later on, I went searching for a reliable IPTV service. Besides spending some money each month, I no longer had to deal with that annoyance.

jodie, do piracy w IPTV Setup Guide?

You can give ATVIPTV a try since they offer a three-day free trial. I'm currently using this IPTV service on my Firestick and haven't experienced any buffering or delays. It offers a wide range of content from over 26 countries, including various types of updates such as sports events, football, boxing, entertainment, movies, and more. They provide a free trial for testing, so I hope this information is helpful to you.

Fantomas,

DogMuffins, do piracy w Having a hard time settling on a VPN

My recommendation would be to give up on the port forwarding.

If maintaining a ratio is important to you then just rent a seedbox once in a while. 1 month with a seedbox gives me enough upload credit to last me several years.

Thereafter I just download torrents, I may be unconnectable but no big deal.

DonnieDarkmode,

Does it not impact downloading? I thought the lack of port forwarding on my VPN was what was causing me to not connect to seeders even though qBittorrent shows them

DogMuffins,

No.

My (possibly mistaken) understanding is that during the download phase your client is contacting seeds requesting parts. Although the data is going to be incoming it’s still an outbound connection because your client initiated it, so you don’t need to be connectable for that.

It’s the seeding phase which is problematic because downloaders can’t contact you to request parts. That said your client will still contact downloaders and offer parts, which again is an outbound connection so you don’t need to be contactable.

In summary download speeds are uneffected, but seeding rates will be diminished. With most private trackers you can still satisfy seeding requirements just by keeping the torrent available for however long.

As an aside I use mullvad & wireguard. I’ve found wireguard dramatically easier to configure, particularly in a docker environment.

DonnieDarkmode,

I’m not on any private trackers. I’d be interested, but not until I have a more dedicated setup; I’m still very much a casual torrenter.

It’s good news then if port forwarding won’t affect my downloads, because that was the only reason I wanted it, but I saw others online say that lacking that feature is what was causing me not to connect to peers shown in my torrent client. Any idea what’s up with that?

DogMuffins,

Any idea what’s up with that?

Not really. Either my explanation is wrong or theirs is. Honestly could be either.

There’s so much misunderstanding and misinformation around torrenting.

All I know is that I’ve never had any problems downloading without being connectable. Never ever. It’s just not an issue.

Additionally, the vast majority of people torrenting in 2023 are using a vpn and none (very few) of them will forward ports so it can’t be a big deal.

Thirdly, there’s a lot of piracy purists / elitists who just can’t abide the idea that your set up may not have the best possible configuration for seeding. IMO, seeding on a residential connection is just a waste of time - download on a residential connection, seed on a VPS / seedbox.

EremesZorn, do gaming w Shoddy PC ports aside, 2023 has already been an amazing year for gaming.

The only thing I have been satisfied with is Baldur’s Gate 3 and I lost interest before I completed Act 3. I’m so immensely fucking pissed off with Armored Core 6 right now that I’m considering uninstalling.
It’s not that it’s bad. It’s actually a really well-made game. But it’s fucking FromSoft, and it’s their “games aren’t shit unless they’re infuriatingly hard” bullshit they’ve always been on.
I don’t know what I was expecting. I beat Elden Ring and the bosses weren’t on this level of nonsense.
And with the news that S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 just got pushed back AGAIN, I’m not having a good year in gaming, no.
I need Starfield to be good or I walk away from gaming altogether until next year. It’s getting to be not worth it anymore to me.
