Sharp312, w How to install Starfield

I tried running it with lutris but that didn’t work, I got an error saying I had a non compatible GPU (getting nms release day vibes lol)

In the end I added starfield.exe as a non steam game in steam, and forced proton under compatibility properties and it worked

Spotify songs stored on your computer are encrypted/unreadable without the Spotify software.

There are tools that you can use to grab mp3’s by feeding it a Spotify playlist though.

lessthanthree,

I was having trouble adding this on to Prowlarr. Anyone know what’s up with that?

CmdrShepard,

I think it’s been having issues the last few days. I’ve had it on there and Jackett previously for years without issue but I haven’t been able to connect for a few days now.

1337x.to works fine

CmdrShepard,

Yes the site works fine but Prowlarr was having trouble connecting to it, possibly a rate limiting issue, but I think it may have been resolved now as I didn’t notice the warning in radarr when adding movies last night.

QualifiedKitten, w Some noob questions about seedboxes

I'm definitely not an expert, but I've been using Whatbox for many years without any issues. I'm based in the US and have it set up to autocharge the same card that I use for everything else. I do not use a VPN or anything else to access Whatbox.

I have received plenty of DMCA notices from Whatbox over the years, and they just require you to delete the offending content within 24 hours or your account will be locked until you do.

In fact, I vaguely recall them increasing my storage allowance a few years ago without raising my rate, so that was pretty cool.

Tadpole7085,

Cool to hear! Do you actually need to delete the content in order to comply, or simply stop seeding?

QualifiedKitten,

I've never actually tested that out. If it's content I want long term, I simply download it to my local storage before deleting from Whatbox.

What I've found works best for me when using public trackers for new content is to set up a max seeding ratio and whatever relevant *arrs. Doing it that way means that I've usually been able to download the content and stop seeding before the swarm is discovered/monitored by those sending the notices.

Sharpiemarker,

Dozens of us!

azerial, w Starfield has been cracked

Awe as a dev this kind of bums me out a little. I wonder that they used for DRM. Those sales go directly to the devs in way of raises and retention.

Granted this is not EA where i worked, but if you enjoy the game, i encourage you to buy it.

Also NOTE: I DO NOT SUPPORT DRM, just the pay checks of the devs as i was one for quite some time.

Yeah! You also realize this is a group full of intelligent people right? It’s the whole reason why i chose this instance.

ZodiacSF1969,

I agree with you, but I think both of us about to be downvoted by these cheapskates lol

azerial,

I’ve thought about this. I think that happened was because of timelines, they released a super early build, fuckin producers.

It’s not the worst thing for an early access game to be cracked, honestly. If the game is has more eyes, that’s great. I am curious about what is out now however.

I am also curious about if the cracked version can be updated with content once the game goes live. Like i have no idea when that is or if it has already happened.

ToxicWaste,

Totally agree on the paycheck. However we need to stop acting like piracy is bad only. Buy the things you really enjoy and support the creator(s).

Back in the days a friend suggested i buy Skyrim and i was like: “Uuh not sure if i want to spend that kind of money on a 2yo game”. But since he was quite a fan, i pirated it. Soon after I bought the LE version and today it is still my most played game.

NGL: i also pirated many things of which i never bought the original version. But because of the bay i also bought some things i most likely wouldn’t have without.

AtomicPurple,
@AtomicPurple@kbin.social avatar

Yup.

I was vaguely interested in Dark Souls for years, but every time I tried, I bounced right off it. I went through a cycle where every year or two, I would pirate one of the souls games, try it out, give up on it after an hour or so, and do it all over again the next time I was sufficiently compelled to give the series another shot. This happened until several years ago when I tried Dark Souls II, and for some reason it finally clicked. I played my pirated copy of Dark Souls II for about 10 hours, before a random crash corrupted my save file.

After that happened, I immediately bought the game on Steam and proceeded to play it for the next month and a half, until I eventually beat it. I've since purchased every souls game plus Elden Ring on Steam, and recently imported a copy of Bloodborne GOTY edition after spending $700 on an exploitable PS5, just so I could play it at 60FPS. None of these legitimate purchases would have ever happened if I hadn't been able to repeatedly pirate Dark Souls for about five years.

azerial,

I don’t think piracy is bad lol i do think mega corporate publishers have bad practices for sure. Like cool, the one i worked for is publicly traded. Awesome. Every action is greed motivated. I hate that.

Every time i loose hope in games i just play undertale and ignore the world. >.>

@ayaya@lemdro.id avatar

Check rutracker, I see one that has 1.0.7.0 in particular.

phamanhvu01,

Good idea with rutracker, I forgot about that site actually! It’s been ages since I’ve seen actual GTA IV and EFLC ISO installations for real, and download is reasonably fast too. Thanks again!

ayaya,
@ayaya@lemdro.id avatar

I have found that most torrents on rutracker are pretty well seeded in general, even the old and obscure ones. It is always the place I go when I can’t find something somewhere else.

bandario,
@bandario@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

That’s because Russians see the value in the collective good: everything for everyone. The majority of the globe just hits and runs on torrents because we got ours, fuck everyone else.

thisisnotcoincedence, w (Solved) Does anyone know if there are still clean DVD ISO rips of Grand Theft Auto IV around?

IPT should have what you’re looking for.

phamanhvu01,

Good suggestion thanks, I already found the needed ISO rip but it’ll probably be handy later for sure.

Plz no MP3 btw, there are better codecs like Opus (used by YT), Ogg Vorbis (used by Spotify) and maybe AAC.

WeirdGoesPro, w Is the TNT version of macpaw gemini safe?
@WeirdGoesPro@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

I’ve found TNT to be a safe release group, but I haven’t had much experience with cmacked.com. If it is unaltered from TNT’s original release, I would presume it to be safe.

Software cracks often register as malware. I think it is a combination of an attempt at copyright protection, plus the fact that many cracks are essentially breaking, blocking, or spoofing the registration of the software to allow an illegitimate version to run. Just because it says it thinks it is malware doesn’t actually mean that it will do anything malicious to your system that you didn’t already intend for the pirated software.

If you’re super nervous about it, install it in a VM and see what happens.

Devjavu, w Is the TNT version of macpaw gemini safe?

Well TNT… it’s dynamite

lemming007, w So how fast do y'all think Starfield will get cracked when the early access goes live tonight?

Lmao

It was already cracked 2 days ago when the early access for the big pre-order set went live. I’ve been playing it the whole time.

athos77,

Myanonamouse.

dditty,

I recently joined myanonamouse and it’s working great so far. The only thing I haven’t figured out yet is how to make my qbitttorrent + vpn docker container accessible for seeding.

das,
@das@lemellem.dasonic.xyz avatar

You need to use a VPN that supports port forwarding, such as PIA, and qbittorrent needs to get set to use that port.

dditty,

I’m using PIA and qbitttorrent is set to use that port. I also forwarded the port in my router, but myanonamouse wouldn’t show me as online/connectable.

das,
@das@lemellem.dasonic.xyz avatar

Don’t forward the port in your router, it’s not required and is just adding a vulnerable entry point into your network.

You can use a port checker tool to see if the port you are using is open (using the VPN IP). If it’s just myanonamouse that’s not recognising it, I recommend asking for help on there :)

dditty,

I’m logged into my account but it says permission denied when I click that link 🤷‍♂️

nestEggParrot,

You dont have send it in. Just taste your own on a video call. Safe and private.

AzzyDev,

It’s a good idea to start with MAM since they have interviews twice a week, and you can access invites for other trackers in the forums once you get to vip (which requires 4 weeks of membership, and a ratio above 2.0)

One of the nicer things about it is that you can gain bonus points (which is how you buy extra upload credit and VIP) just by being an available seed. Due to the shear number of books on the site, you won’t be seeding often, but they make it desirable to keep it available in case someone needs it by giving you a certain number of bonus points per hour depending on various factors.

That’s a lot of work. I can’t imagine putting that much effort into downloading, not when Usenet doesn’t require anything but a couple dollars a month.

Mr_Blott,

*Uploading, and that’s why you wouldn’t get an invite for a private tracker

AphoticDev,
@AphoticDev@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

No, that’s why I wouldn’t even ask for one. No point wasting so much time tending a ratio when I’ve got a faster experience that doesn’t require me to do anything, and doesn’t depend on random strangers to work.

Pulp,

Open signups/interviews then climb up the ladder.

@Appoxo@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

opensignup pages like r/opensignups (now retired) but there are alternatives online, the AvistaZ/CinemaZ/PrivateHD discord has surprise invites and usually they open around christmas and/or black friday.
