NoLifeKing, w Nintendo is suing the creators of Switch emulator Yuzu

Cars are used for driving around but some people use it for accidents and drunk driving! Ban cars!

🤦

Nonironically yes

Fake4000, w Nintendo is suing the creators of Switch emulator Yuzu

From what I understood, is that the team’s Patreon page is a means of making financial gains of emulating the Switch. This could be the reason why Nintendo is suing.

Vanced NFT memories.

tubbadu, w what's your wishlist for piracy?

That dubbed audio tracks of movies could be downloaded separatey and easily merged in the audio, in a way similar to subtitles. This way, the audio track in non English languages would be downloaded very quickly, even with just one seeder, and the whole movie in original language has way more seeders than dubbed ones.

@leanleft@lemmy.ml avatar

this service claims:

“Ad based search engines make almost $300 a year off their users.

Google generated $76 billion in US ad revenue in 2023. Google had 274 million unique visitors in the US as of February 2023.

To estimate the revenue per user, we can divide the 2023 US ad revenue by the 2023 number of users: $76 billion / 274 million = $277 revenue per user in the US or $23 USD per month, on average! That means there is someone, somewhere, a third party and a complete stranger, an advertiser, paying $23 per month for your searches.”

Would that factor in the [unknown] costs of that revenue? Running all the servers (incl youtube), offices and staff aint cheap. So more likely some is paying enough to leave 23USD on top of massive costs.

dangblingus, w Switched from uTorrent to QBitTorrent

TIL I’m the only one who says “microtorrent”.

ARk,

what is that

nudnyekscentryk,
@nudnyekscentryk@szmer.info avatar

The “u” in uTorrent is actually [greek letter mu](en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mu_(letter)), which as a SI suffix is pronounced “micro” and means one millionth (10^-6)

nudnyekscentryk, w Is there a sponsor block situation for Podcasts?
@nudnyekscentryk@szmer.info avatar

On top of dynamic ads, another problem would be decentralisation of podcasts. Many of them are released on several platforms simultaneously, and some sort of extra work would be needed for this to work accordingly independent of where you’re listening to a particular podcast to.

iesou, w questions about manual subtitles

Opensubtitles.com has an AI service to transcribe, translate, or provide VO for a small fee: ai.opensubtitles.com.

I was thinking of using it for some of my older more obscure stuff bazarr can’t find.

nudnyekscentryk, (edited )
@nudnyekscentryk@szmer.info avatar

isn’t opensubtitles.COM an impostor of opensubtitles.ORG? which is nasty enough to advertise itself on the original website? or are they actually related?

according to FAQ it is related

nudnyekscentryk, w RIP videos from streaming services
@nudnyekscentryk@szmer.info avatar

It’s a secret – otherwise the streaming services in question would immediately patch the vulnerability

RepulsiveDog4415, w E-Books, best places to get them?

Do I go to the same places I torrent movies and games or are there special places dedicated to E-Books?

I use library genisis. Great for scientific papers and adequate for fiction.

Anna’s archive is a catalogue which goes through multiple databases including libgen, therefore it’s preferable

Spitfire, w The Simpsons: Hit and Run Fan Remake Is Complete, but It Will Never Be Released - IGN
@Spitfire@pawb.social avatar

Honestly what’s the point of even releasing videos or showing it off if all it’s going to amount to is a tease?

Seems like kind of a dick move. If they wanted to make it for personal reasons fine but don’t tell anyone else.

Brkdncr,

Why keep such an accomplishment secret?

msprout,

It’s a portfolio piece. Nothing wrong with the dude demonstrating what he’s capable of doing. It’s how you break into the game industry.

Nothing wrong with it, but why am I hearing about it?

Because you just might happen to be Mr. Naughty Dog himself browsing Lemmy and thinking “wow that’s the kind of talent I need on my team!”

ivanafterall,

John Activision, here. I like the cut of this developer's gib. He's hired starting immediately.

noisypine, w Is Direct Connect still 'a thing'?

I use it, but due to it being more cumbersome, I go to IRC first. If I can’t find it on IRC, I can usually get it from DC++.

pirate,

Are you using xdcc.eu or sunxdcc.com, or are you searching directly through IRC on each of your preferred servers?

noisypine,

Little bit of both. Usually I start with sunxdcc and xdcc.eu, but if I can’t find it, I search in the chats. Sometimes not all packs are listed and the search engines.

highduc,

Not sure if joking or…? If you’re joking it went over my head :)

noisypine,

Not joking. This all works, probably a lot better than you may think.

lauha,

How do you search files on IRC? You’re joking, right?

jayandp,

There are IRC/XDCC search engines. I don’t know their exact method of scraping IRC servers, but they kinda work.

Also, if you know the right servers and channels, most have some kind of search index or bot.

noisypine,

Not joking. There are sites like sunxdcc for searching from the web, and otherwise, !s in chats to search. Works great, honestly.

pelikan, w Youtube - like apps like piped.video, but as Android app?

You need ReVanced app, that’s new incarnation of Vanced app that ceased to work

Bandicoot_Academic,

Pretty sure that Revanced still has google tracking since its a patched version of the official app.

Also if anyone here intends to use it: Please be careful. The real revenced site (www.revanced.app) has awfull SEO and usualy appears way below fake websites (that sometimes spread malware). The only real websites are revanced.app and the github.

Also you have to patch the app yourself for copyright reasons so don’t trust and websites that offer a direct apk of revanced (the real website offers a manager app that you can use to patch the official app)

WindowsEnjoyer,

Revanced instructions (official Youtube app, but with adblocking, sponsorblock and other nice improvements).

  1. Uninstall Youtube (or disable if not possible)
  2. github.com/ReVanced/revanced-manager/releases
  3. Install
  4. Open, go to “Patcher”, find “Youtube” and download the specified recommended version from www.apkmirror.com
  5. Patch it, install it.
  6. Install MicroG if you want to use your Google account with it: github.com/TeamVanced/VancedMicroG/releases
  7. Launch your installed youtube app. You will need to login from within the app if you are using MicroG.

Also you have to patch the app yourself

I thought I read someone was providing “clean” patched APKs now?

WindowsEnjoyer,

Google might go after pathed apks, but you can’t go after patches (which isn’t apk).
