Why aren’t you using popcorn time?

appreciate the tip!

Cqrd,

Popcorn time isn’t new, be sure to use a vpn with it, it’s basically just directly downloading and playing torrents

Sir_Kevin, w So, Unity is charging game developers per video game install now...
@Sir_Kevin@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

Unity is janky as fuck so I hope this turns more developers away so that they’ll use Unreal or anything else for that matter.

ZeroHora,
@ZeroHora@lemmy.ml avatar

The thing is Unreal could do something similar later.

jack, (edited )

Yes, the only safe (sophisticated) engine is Godot. It’s free and open source.

Sir_Kevin,
@Sir_Kevin@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

They could, but I doubt they’ll ever be that desperate.

vivadanang,

makes me sad because for VR and AR, Unity got devkits working faster than anything. And new hardware is still supported overwhelmingly in unity sooner. but fuck everything about this shitshow

Sir_Kevin,
@Sir_Kevin@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

Everyr VR game I’ve played that uses Unreal feels sooo much more optimized then other games using Unity. It would be a significant win for everybody if more devs switched over.

vivadanang,

they’re more optimized because they must be in order to hit performan frame rates. Unreal makes a fantastic FPS engie; for anything else, it must be beaten into a shape that conforms with the limitations - in VR’s case, sub 10ms frame timing so the GPU has enough time to get the scene drawn into the buffer for each eye.

Gamey, w So, Unity is charging game developers per video game install now...

Maybe that will give Godot a serious chance for second place I guess, Unity ocupied that for far too long anyway!

Blackmist,

Doubt it. They’ll go to Unreal.

Godot needs console support if it wants to displace Unity. Open source is a noble goal, but it’s going to lock you out of certain markets.

Gamey,

Unreal is first place already so that wouldn’t matter too much for Godots place but you are partly right, people probably won’t switch to Godot. What I think you get very wrong is the chance for open source offerings in that area, the reason why so many big developers still have in house engines is control but those engines get more expensive as the scope of games increases, I think that wiuld be the perfect spot for open source to occupy but it’s questionable if that will ever happen.

Blackmist,

No, I mean that they legally can’t support say PS5 and still be 100% open source. There would need to be a closed source wrapper, and that’s what they don’t want.

godotengine.org/…/godot-consoles-all-you-need-kno…

Which is fine, they can do what they want, but it means they can never be the choice of a developer that wants to put their game on as many platforms as possible.

Gamey,

Oh, sorry I missunderstood that! That’s certainly a issue and probably should be outlawed but it doesn’t make it impossible perse, if the interest would be big enough someone could probably write some sort of modular component to add, you can modify it after all and there is no requirement for the wnd product to be open source but again, if anything like that actually happens is highly questiknable, I wish the DMA identified consoles as Gatekeepers! :(

Blackmist,

Yeah, I’m not sure how consoles avoided that.

It would sure be nice to run whatever I wanted on my consoles. Top of my list would be SteamLink for Switch.

Avoiding piracy is a thorny one for them. They’ve really locked that shit down in recent years. The last time I saw any was for the Xbox 360, where everyone at work had their drives altered and laughed at me for being a mug that still bought games, and then I laughed as they all got banned at once during the Great Purge of 2009. I think piracy was one of the reasons that the PS3 Linux thing was discontinued as well.

TeryVeneno,

I’m pretty sure the people behind Godot actually started a company to solve this exact issue, so it should be fine these days.

ADHDefy, w Youtube - like apps like piped.video, but as Android app?
@ADHDefy@kbin.social avatar

Newpipe + Sponsorblock is a really good option.

Hazard,

This is what I use. Great once you’ve properly customized it.

Pssk, (edited ) w Which cracks and repacs works best on linux?
@Pssk@lemmy.ml avatar

You can find games like this one in rutracker which require no installation, decompression or dwarfs thing, only the files. Just like what you’d have after installing a repack

EuroNutellaMan,

Semi-related but do you happen to know where I can find the guide to rutracker?

Pssk, (edited )
@Pssk@lemmy.ml avatar

It is not fully private. You can browse without an account but cant use the site’s search. If you don’t want to create an account you can use a search engine like duckduckgo like adding site:rutracker.org to your query

EuroNutellaMan, (edited )

No I mean there was a guide on how to use rutracker or something

EDIT: Turns out it has been deleted, at least the one I found in the past

@DessertStorms

There’s even a a Python API to download files as you please, even more convenient than torrenting

ultratiem,
@ultratiem@lemmy.ca avatar

They have a flourish of everything. Fastest torrents I’ve ever seen.

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

If you wanna use Piped with a slick Android UI for privacy, use LibreTube. It’s a native client for Android that uses a Piped instance of your choice (e.g piped.video or piped.smnz.de).

wolfshadowheart, w Safe site to download older games?
@wolfshadowheart@kbin.social avatar

Depending on the age, myabandonware and a guy named Vimm who has a lair are solid places.

Just one DL at a time from the latter, but it's worth it. Also it's not that bad of a hassle, go from small to large games and it's over in no time.

DessertStorms,
@DessertStorms@kbin.social avatar

Unfortunately myabandonware just links back to steam and Vimm only has the PS version, but thanks!

Vitagox, w netflixmirror.com safe to use?

I would also recommend Strem.io. Also should use a VPN with it.

Joyboy, w What is the best firestick app for movies?
@Joyboy@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

I use Cloudstream, it gets the job done.

theoldman, w With PLEX blocking Hetzner Hosting, I'm thinking of Moving to Jellyfin, but I have some questions.

If you are concerned about privacy, don’t use Plex or any other software which use central servers to collect your data. They can literally see where you click on the screen, let alone what kind of hosting you use. Jellyfin on the other hand is open source and don’t phone home. Also if a software is free, it doesn’t mean it was easy to create it in the first place. So please consider donation or support the project.

Cranksta,

The other option is Emby. It’s based on the same code, and is just another division of the same project. You pay for it, but it gets tons of support and more features as a result. Both projects have pros and cons but I’m leaning further to Emby than Jellyfin myself.

CookieJarObserver, w Is It Farewell To The Internet Archive?
@CookieJarObserver@sh.itjust.works avatar

Internet Archiv will go .onion

AllNewTypeFace,
@AllNewTypeFace@leminal.space avatar

It’ll be hard to do when the bailiffs have seized their building and all their servers

CookieJarObserver,
@CookieJarObserver@sh.itjust.works avatar

Federate it!

totallynotfbi,

That only helps for shadow libraries whose operators are unknown. The Internet Archive, on the other hand, is a registered non-profit organisation, so how would they be able to hide themselves?

AAA,

Just like the OG Pirate Bay. They closed down, and someone else, unknown, took over.

That’s not unproblematic ofc as the new owner can do whatever they want without the oversight of the non-profit.

NotSteve_, (edited )

It’d be harder for IA since they have hundreds of PBs of hard drives. You need like a warehouse for it so it’s a lot harder to hop around

CookieJarObserver,
@CookieJarObserver@sh.itjust.works avatar

They could give the entire data as download and others could take over

totallynotfbi,

It’s not so simple, unfortunately. The sheer amount of data they have - 212 PB as of December 2021 - makes it practically impossible for most people to mirror. Unless they physically hand over all 745 server nodes to another operator, there’s no way of someone

There are some solutions to this - for example Archive-Team has proposed a method of mirroring the Internet Archive using distributed clients, although this method currently only has a fraction of the total dataset. Still, at this point in time, there’s no real solution to resharing IA’s data in the event they go under

turkalino,

how would they be able to hide themselves?

It’s literally in the name for a .onion website: hidden service

Tor hides the identity of servers just as much as it does for client users. So as long as the IA hosts in a country where publishers don’t have jurisdiction, I believe they’ll be fine

WarmApplePieShrek,

Customs and emigration will notice the hundreds of server racks on a boat

rizoid, w What is the best firestick app for movies?
@rizoid@midwest.social avatar

Second stremio. I use the torrentio addon without rd but always with vpns. It’s a backup for me for when my main nas goes down so I don’t want to pay for rd.

OverfedRaccoon, (edited ) w What are the best alternatives to The Pirate Bay in 2023?

I like sites that are aggregators of content (no one site, necessarily). I think the best move is to find release groups you like the quality of and trust. From there, find out where they upload. I was a big fan of RARBG remuxes (x265) and RARBG-affiliated TV release groups, so it took a bit to find acceptable and consistent replacements. It’s worth the effort.

Junkernaught,

Who did you replace them with?

OverfedRaccoon,

For movies, PSA slotted right in the quality/size hole RARBG left for x265 movies. There’s groups with better quality at higher filesizes (like QxR), but the ~2GB 1080p stuff PSA puts out suits my needs well.

TV is a little eh. XEN0N is where I ended up, but definitely isn’t on par with ION10/ION265. I haven’t found a great catch-all replacement. But I haven’t had to grab a ton of TV lately, to be honest.

Junkernaught,

Thank you!

Varsico,

You’d probably like Pahe.in releases, I also landed on PSA (I use it for both movies & tv) and Pahe is pretty close to it in quality/size. Pahe doesn’t have torrents tho, but I think their GDrive and Mega links are pretty easy to get to; compared to some of PSA’s direct downloads you only need one real countdown and less than 10 clicks to get the file
