atomicfox, w Critical support for the Lemmy world peeps in their fight against pro-intellectual property nerds

Ha, what a loser. Artists don’t deserve to be paid for their work.

My prime motive for piracy! The current model is exploitative of the artists and must be ushered quickly to its own defeat.

They shouldn’t have to strike until they lose their houses like so many do now. Every year they receive less and less of the profit of their work (and its certainly not because of any excess going to those in need). It’s a shame and an embarrassment on society.

johnnyjayjay, w What is the opposite of "All rights reserved"?

RE: Copyleft

The idea of copyleft is that you give anyone the freedom to do anything with your work, with one essential restriction: they do the same for their changes, derivative works etc. Technically attribution doesn’t have to be part of a copyleft licence, but all copyleft licences I know have a requirement to preserve copyright info.

And yes, it is popular in software (GPL, MPL, EPL), but for other types of works there is CC BY-SA 4.0 (Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike). If you want to copyleft books, images, videos, other forms of text… this is the way to go, IMO.

Some additional remarks, just to clarify:

  • Copyleft is not “giving up all copyright” - copyleft essentially “plays” the copyright system in a way that makes sure nobody is restricting access to or usage of one’s work. Using the rules of copyright against copyright, if you will.
  • In some jurisdictions, there is no such thing as “giving up all copyright” or “dedicating something to the public domain”. Best you can do, generally, is giving users all the same/relevant rights.
  • Most Creative Commons licences are not copyleft, only the ones with a ShareAlike (SA) clause. Some CC licences are also nonfree, meaning they don’t give you all the freedoms to do what you want with the work. The 2 possible nonfree clauses in CC licences are ND (no derivative works) and NC (no commercial use). NC can also be used together with a SA clause, making CC BY-SA (free) and CC BY-NC-SA (nonfree) the two CC copyleft licences.
guango,

Yeah, I’ve been creating and downloading CC artwork for almost 10 years. You can find it on Machinimasounds, NCS music, Jamendo.

I find their website very helpful https://creativecommons.org/licenses/.

razrabotka,

Jamendo

I recently made a Jamendo account myself, and I already found an album to download (“Show it to your Mother” by Rusty Tea Makers). I find it easier to find music there than on FMA

ISOmorph, w (LINUX USER)What VPNs would you lovely people recommend?

The same 3 VPNs get recommended each time this question is asked:

  • Mullvad
  • Proton
  • IVPN
Carter,

So two that don’t offer port forwarding and one that only does on Windows? Wow what a great recommendation…

kostel_thecreed,

Only Proton should be recommended for torrenting since it has port-forwarding. I don’t know why people love suggesting these even without port-forwarding.

x3i, w It would appear lemmy.world has blocked this community

Was there some context or discussion about that over there? If I recall correctly, lemmy.world is hosted in Germany, right? The lawyers there are quite extreme when it comes to cracking down on piracy; is a whole business model… So maybe .world is just overly cautious

Madbrad200,

Just released an announcement, see the pic in the post.

stebo02,
@stebo02@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

that announcement is also a buch of horsecrap

Blamemeta,

Fucking Germany. Like I get having the laws, but they are being abused for absolute nonsense.

narp,

I’m on a german instance (feddit.de) and it’s federated with db0.

I think it’s just lemmy.world bullshit.

Has anyone read their post about their downtime?

“We shouldn’t close registration or limit the amount of communities because we’re not even the biggest instance in the fediverse

Like, what?! The argument was always that they are the biggest in Lemmy! It felt like they were trying to gaslight the users.

Same as the other arguments, like new users being weirded out if they can’t register to lemmy.world or apps using them as default. So them being down all the time doesn’t matter? Or that lemmy.ml was the biggest instance and closed down registration and new users registered to other instances without a problem?

I’m really weirded out how hard they try to be the “main” thing on Lemmy.

Marxine,
@Marxine@lemmy.ml avatar

Almost like an “intentional and kinda aggressive lib takeover”. I wouldn’t put it past the admins to try monetizing their users at some point.

Hubi, w I Just Can't Understand How to install fitgirl repacks on linux

I don’t think there’s a guide for your specific use case, but it’s essentially no different from running any other windows installer on Linux. You will have to set up Wine (a guide is on their website) and once that’s done, it’s basically just double-clicking the setup.exe.

KDE,

no brother thats not how it works , because fitgirl repacks are extremely compressed since they are sent off through torrent , its not like you can just double click the setup.exe i would suggest you to see some reddit posts regarding this topic if my comment didn’t explain it properly :) reddit.com/…/how_to_install_fitgirl_or_dodi_windo…

ruckblack,

Lmfao

CrowAirbrush, w Jackett's manual search is so, so good

I just started sailing again and all the torrents i want for my fav bands are stuck at 0. So i’ve started getting songs one by one from that website that takes them from deezer i found on here.

ArcaneSlime,

Soulseek for music. And yt-dlp.

luthis, w What's the history behind cam rips of movies and where have they typically came from?

Some family friends brought back cam rips from Egypt of several Disney movies, Beauty and the beast, Aladdin, and a couple others.

They had strange ads for burgers in Arabic, and the cam was really low quality.

We didn’t really know any better being kids, so I always thought that Beauty and the Beast was a dark, terrifying, grainy, nightmarish movie.

Having seen the real version, I have to say the shitty cam copy stuck better in my mind.

Anyways, sorry I can’t answer any of your questions OP.

nestEggParrot,

That reminded of the shitty cam print of Iron Man 1. Started from the Humvee scene a minute before getting blown off. 20-30% was dark or pointed at floor for whatever reason. Godawful audio.

Thought it was a shitty movie halfway though and stopped. Got a good print after Iron man 2 released and faithfully watched all marvel release, many in cinemas, till Infinity war. Now its all available on Disney+ and I won’t watch the new ones after it.

jlow, w CBZ File Guide

You can just change .zip to .cbz either manually via a filebrowser or a script (cbz are essentially just zips).

I think .cbz can only contain images, no subfolders, so maybe you need to make a .cbz per chapter or do a lot of remaming to be able to put them in one directory.

Cbr is the same but for .rar files (which are not open source?).

I think there is a program for adding metadata to manga like Comictagger (which does not work too well for manga) but I can’t remember the name …

jlow,

Looks like I was wrong about the subfolders! Just tested it and it looks like you can just zip a bunch of folders called chapter 1, 2, 3, etc, rename to .cbz and at least Komga and YACreader seem to just go through all of them when reading. Very cool!

Im28xwa, w Where do you guys download pirated android apps from ?

I recently stumbled upon platinmods dot com, don’t know whether it is safe though so a comment from someone who knows about this site more will be appreciated

Azurebalmunk,

It’s safe. I would stick to the approved/verified and tested mods sections of the site.

brickfrog, w Is everything slow for you?

Make sure you are fully connectable (port forwarded). To check this you will want to test your torrent client’s incoming connection port with a 3rd party port test website e.g. www.canyouseeme.org, www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/, portchecker.co, etc. Those websites should be able to successfully connect to your torrent client’s incoming connections port. If the test fails then you need to look at adding an incoming port forward in your network router’s configuration.

Also make sure DHT/PEX is enabled in your torrent client (those are enabled by default).

PS - The above is if you’re not using a VPN/Proxy (you didn’t mention using one)… definitely don’t re-configure your router configuration if you intend to use a VPN/Proxy, all port forwarding needs to happen on the VPN/Proxy server in those cases.

cyanarchy,

Any solutions for people whose VPNs do not offer port forwarding?

brickfrog,

It is impossible to port forward with a VPN service that does not offer port forwarding. You’d have to subscribe to a different VPN provider.

d3Xt3r, w Is everything slow for you?

Make sure you’ve enabled PEX, DHT etc, also update your tracker list using the lists here: github.com/ngosang/trackerslist

LazerDickMcCheese,

Both were already enabled, but I manually added every tracker listed to cover my bases (both DNSs and IPs). I reannounced, but the speed hasn’t improved.

laylawashere44,

Have you limited upload? The BitTorrent protocol needs some amount of upload to sustain download speeds and throttling upload can mess it up.

LazerDickMcCheese,

I did limit the upload, what’s a good setting?

laylawashere44,

There really isnt a good reason to limit upload unless you have other devices that need the upload capacity on your Internet connection. It’s best to leave it uncapped. Limiting upload doesn’t prevent ISP or Copyright holders from viewing your IP. Torrent clients will do this automatically if left un capped but you want it to be about 70-80% of your max real upload speed.

Holo, w Rip udemy courses?

I watch and record mine via Firefox and OBS. It’s a ratyer long way to do it, but it works. You just need to sit aorund for 3 or 4 of the videos and wait until the questionnaire appears. Once you’ve skipped that, you can normally walk away and leave it recording the rest of the course.

vd1n, w Pirate Netflix

Get stremio.

Psythik,

This. Stremio is exactly what you’re looking for OP. Works just like Netflix, runs on your TV. Every show/movie from every streaming platform is there.

Just make sure to install the Torrentio and Streaming Catalogs plugins to get the free content to show up. I also recommend a Real-Debrid subscription cause it it allows you to stream instantly without delay. (In fact, you can download any torrent you want instantly with Debrid.)

chimmy_chonga,

Is this possible without torrents? Like getting content from a streaming website rather than torrents?

Psythik,

Stremio uses torrents, but they’re direct downloads. Everything is stored on a separate server. It’s similar to a seed box, except no waiting cause the files were already downloaded beforehand by what’s called a “Debrid service”.

You can also use Debrid to directly download any torrent you want, not just movies and TV. I have a gigabit connection so it’s way faster than any torrent client could ever dream to achieve.

bazo, w !piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com has the most subscribers out of any community according to lemmyverse.net

What the fuck is that commy shit on c/news?

Furball,

That’s hexbear.net, a tankie instance

bazo,

Thanks for answer

Ew, why lemmy has so many tankies

sprl, w !piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com has the most subscribers out of any community according to lemmyverse.net

Although good for the active community, I don’t feel like it’s a great advertisement of lemmy for the wider public
