negativenull, w Android Game Popup Ads

I use a PiHole at home, combined with a Wireguard server, so my phones route all traffic through my home network, even when I’m out and about.

This is how I do it. Haven’t seen an in-app ad for a very long time.

atlasraven31,

That’s very clever.

How to setup a pihole in router? I’m planning on getting a new connection

  1. Adguard DNS
  2. Blokada 5
  3. AdAway

I personally use AdAway after being a blokada user since blokada 3 but they kinda fell off imo

Auzy, w Now you have to pay to see lyrics on spotify

I can’t find the reference, but isn’t Spotify the service which stole the lyrics from another site? And then the other site added morse code on some of them to catch them red handed?

That could be part of the reason if it was

LiveLM,

I believe the squabble you’re talking about was between Genius and Google, don’t think Spotify was stealing lyrics from anywhere

Auzy,

I tried googling it… couldn’t find it… What you’re saying sounds more familiar.

But, Spotify probably licenses their Song lyrics too I’m guessing, so, not sure how royalties work for that, and could be a factor

Petter1,

I have this memory, that apple was accused to have pirated sone lyrics as well, lol

IIRC correctly, Genius added white space to some of their lyrics so that when Google scraped them, they could prove they got it from their site since the scraped content also had the random white space.

Auzy, (edited )

Found it…

How did Genius become certain of that discovery? By hiding a Morse code message within some of the lyrics on its own site, the code being a series of curly and straight apostrophes which, when assembled, correspond to the Morse code for the word “REDHANDED” (as in, Google has been caught red-handed). Sure enough, those apostrophes showed up in Google results. But here’s the thing, though. After confronting Google with that evidence as described in a lawsuit Genius filed today against the search giant (with Genius describing that evidence as Watermark #1), Genius then decided to hide a second secret code (Watermark #2) inside its lyrics to further prove the lyrics are being copied.

They used it to spell out “REDHANDED” in morse code using apostrophes too…

Either way, not the case here

What do you use as a torrenting client? Most popular ones give you the ability to choose a specific interface over which it will allow incoming/outgoing connections to other peers. Your ProtonVPN should have its own interface you can select from your client. That should make it much less likely for that to happen again if Proton crashes, since if Proton crashes, that network interface disconnects.

Stuka,

Using Qbittorrent, I didn’t know about that feature when the leak happened, but its been enabled ever since.

Pulp,

That feature is the most important one. No matter what data is only sent through VPN

wildbus8979, w Torrebting security.

Use a layered approach. Have one container act as a VPN client and router. VPN off > nothing gets routed. Put your torrenting in another container that is behind that router.

Stuka,

I’m not using containers at the moment, can you link me to more info on how to set that up? Specifically asking for the VPN / router bit. Think I can figure out the basics of containers.

wildbus8979,

It’s all just iptables (or nftables if you wanna get fancy). I don’t have a specific guide for you.

At this point, aren’t the Japanese stifling any discussion about copyrighted content? This has to be stupid, yes?

so ridiculous and sad.

yoz, w Now you have to pay to see lyrics on spotify

Why don’t you guys torrent ? I am back to torrenting and its the best.

Pulp,

Have fun

Psythik, (edited )

Because direct downloads are better and faster.

slavart.gamesdrive.net
free-mp3-download.net (don’t use apostrophes in the search for this one)

You’re welcome.

Edit: Also, Real-Debrid if you want to directly download any torrent instantly at your connection’s maximum bandwidth (up to 1Gbps) without having to wait for seeds. But this one costs money. (It’s worth it, though, especially if you’re downloading a lot of 50GB+ AAA games like I am.)

yoz,

How do we use real-debrid ? I don’t understand it.

Psythik,

Simple, you replace your torrent client with it. Instead of opening a torrent file in QBittorrent or whatever, you go to the “torrents” section and paste the magnet link/open your torrent file there. Then select “convert” and then you can download the torrent directly from their servers. It’s kind of like a seedbox that everyone shares, so that you don’t have to wait for seeds so long as at least one person has added the file to Debrid before.

Select the “premium offers” link to get started.

yoz,

Cheers mate

Japan is very bad in terms of copyrighted stuff. If that person lives overseas this would never have happened.

Third party apps for Spotify is definitely the way to go if you don’t have premium.

vikinghoarder,

What are those?

Xy_lemmy,

Xmanager for android. For other platforms you can checkout Spotx

Anyone else suddenly struck by an urge to make let’s plays of stein’s gate in their less draconian copyright law home region?

bblfrnz,

I’m sure you were thinking about Eyjafjallajökull.

Pulp, w Now you have to pay to see lyrics on spotify

But do you? I can still see them, using xManager.

@Mothra@mander.xyz avatar

I’ve seen xManager and couldn’t convince myself to install it. Do you need a Spotify account? Does it let you create playlists as you wish?

Pulp,

Yes for both.

liliumstar, w Looking for obscure, older television

TVV or CRT are good trackers for old stuff, might have what you want.

BelieveRevolt, w Now you have to pay to see lyrics on spotify

The funniest thing to ask money for. Just have genius.com open or stream the song on YouTube, the lyrics are probably in the description or at the very least the comments.

Pulp,

Just google them

ThePenitentOne,

Anything to encourage even a single person to spend more money. It’s just sad, really.
