Haptic feedback has everyone. How does it differ in any form from other controllers.
Pretty sure only the Switch and PS5 Controllers have something unique to vibration motors

Fridge and Router. Perfect.
Now we need what? An oven?

But recently PLEX says they will be blocking Hetzner hosting in the next few weeks. I’ve been considering moving to Jellyfin for a while, but I’m worried they will do the same thing in future.

Jellyfin: Completely autonomous of anything outside.
Plex: Authenticates with Plex servers so you need an external account

Jellyfin is a fully self-sufficient software not calling outside.

From the jellyfin core team (see point 2): www.reddit.com/r/…/jellyfin_and_privacy/?utm_sour…

From their website literally on the homepage:

Privacy Focused

Jellyfin has no tracking, phone-home, or central servers collecting your data. We believe in keeping our software open and transparent. We’re also not in the media business, so the only media you see is your own.

It’s not like Hetzner is a small player in the European datacenter VPS market. :p

Not like it could be implemented.
But the the community would (as OP said) fork the project.

I just checked the page for my own ip, my past seedbox IP and my current seedbox IP

My current (dynamic) ISP IP: No downloads. Makes sense, as I do not have torrenting.
My historic seedbox IP: No downloads. Strange but the website claims it tracks the DHT protocol and I am pretty sure I rarely used DHT for my torrents back then
My current seedbox IP: Multiple downloads from today about me supposedly downloading XXX stuff amd various kinds of games and movies.

The site doesn’t know all shit or at least not maps it to the correct IP. I am not interested in torrenting porn anyway and if, I would probably not download it from DHT and more likely be around private trackers
I don’t torrent games ever. The only pieces of software I did are photoshop and illustrator and switch games.
Is my seedbox hacked? Not impossible. I found an open seedbox FTP connection on shodan and have the power to connect to the FTP share. Is kind of interesting to see what others download.

Appoxo, 9 miesięcy temu

I believe (my) seedbox IP is unique. Else private trackers would certainly throw a fit because of shared accounts due to IPs.

I will ask my hoster. Seems interesting.

Appoxo, 9 miesięcy temu

Yeah nvmd. I asked my hoster today.
It’s shared.

Any more advice for a fellow torrenter in Germany regarding linux isos (hey lawyer ;))

Using a seedbox from abroad to avoid local downloads.

Appoxo, 9 miesięcy temu

You can hide malware in EXIF metadata.
Just let common sense and be always aware of abnormal device behavior.

Appoxo, 9 miesięcy temu

Well already using a seedbox located abroad.
I will just hope it won’t be linked back to me lol :p

And if, a browser will be forked that can still use the extension interface.

I can see a new launch game for the switch 2 in the works.
It would certainly makes sense.

True. Maybe not launch game but late game.

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.

Seems fine with media, but careful using it for actual executables.

As with any exe from a non-official online source.

Appoxo, 9 miesięcy temu

Also found none. At least not in french. If you still want it, look on nyaa.

My way:
Renting a seedbox outside of Germany (NL) for about 16€ per month for a 2TB box.
Is it a very great value? No, not really.
But the staff is very reponsive to issues. Tickets are being reponded to usually within 24h and resolved within 1 week. (Much better than my helpdesk performance lol)
I got grandfathered in from an unmetered service. I can seed as much as I want at ~1Gbit/s even though I may not hit it due to being a shared box. So also very good.
And I can use public trackers there.

Stuff is getting transferred with resilio to my home, automatically imported and appears within 30min after download is complete in my media library.

The other option to a seedbox is a VPN and doing it from home. Only let a program connect via the tunnel.

Personally I am not fond of option #2 as I’d need to maintain it myself, my home internet is slow compared to a seedbox and I’d need to torrent from my own ISP connection. Yeah no. #1 is managed and I just pay the amount of 2 good quality services and have everything I can aquire.

Appoxo, 9 miesięcy temu

Better stuff than some public sites and software that can be more trustworthy than 1337x.

Appoxo, 9 miesięcy temu (edited 9 miesięcy temu)

It’s not like a public tracker. Please watch out and read the rules before downloading.

Edit: The fuck am I being downvoted for? Inconsiderate users that want newbies to fail :|

Appoxo, 9 miesięcy temu

Look online for open signups. Usually TL opens around eastern, summer, Black Friday and sometimes on Christmas.

Appoxo, 9 miesięcy temu (edited 9 miesięcy temu)

Huh? It cant be easier. With just a 2TB drive and 2 years I collected 8TB in upload on this tracker alone.
This is one of the easiest if you can seed 24/7

Appoxo, 9 miesięcy temu

Sounds like it’s not the issue of the tracker at all. Just invest in a small seedbox either self hosted or get a proper non-free vpn. Not exactly rocket science…

Appoxo, 9 miesięcy temu

Basically your are being held responsible for seeding it either 1:1 or for some time if you cant reach that goal.

Longevity is rewarded on some trackers with more bonus points you can trade for stuff like Upload credits. The longer you seed, the more you can get per seed.

Usually privates can get exclusive stuff which trickles to public trackers but they also pull from public (like anime from nyaa) and reseed them here.
Some private tracker users are unable to download from public because either their ISP watches that more closely or their seedbox provider does not permit it/banned connections

The general quality is >=720p and usally a higher bitrate than public ones.

Sime trackers are general (like 1337x and TL), specific for movie and tv (like RARBG and Blu) and some others for topics like ebooks and audiobooks, music/-videos, learning materials.
Some may even only allow content that was produced >10 years ago (cathode) or something like cartoons (old toons) or culture specific (like jptv and nyaa) only.

Appoxo, 9 miesięcy temu

Research and believing in the good of some users.

Usually the comments on TL are dead for stuff like movies and TV. But for software they are quite active in comparison.

*In the good to not infect you with malware because they actually want to hurt the big corpo.

This sounds better.

Appoxo, 9 miesięcy temu (edited 9 miesięcy temu)

Yes and yes.
Keep an eye open for opensignup pages on the interwebz for trackers. Some open entirely while others you need to apply for with seed proof (public seed does not matter).

Some private trackers may have an invite forum. You could try to achieve a class with access to it (usually a high threshold of seed or commitment, showing you know how the rules of such sites work)

Appoxo, 9 miesięcy temu

As you said, some may or may not accept the proof.
BUT: Some trackers proof may be worth less or more than others.

Appoxo, 9 miesięcy temu

Why would you need file encryption?
Not like having a drive full of movies is illegal…Except if OP has CSAM stuff inside. Than it should be very encrypted in case of loosing (or not depending if OP wants jail time).

Appoxo, 9 miesięcy temu

Not like I don’t agree. Those vile people should.
But something like that or actually confidential stuff you don’t want others to see is a valid reason to encrypt it.

Appoxo, 9 miesięcy temu

Usually you do not have a static IP anyway. Sure you could probably backtrace the DHCP of your ISP to the date yout that IP got issued…But that is IMO a bit overly paranoid.

Though to be fair’ I don’t know why they don’t like VPNs for signups. Most likely to enforce IP based bans for not following rules or for entire banned countries.
If you don’t really care about the rules, just do it on signup but don’t connect US -> DE but instead US -> US. That way they may not care enough to enforce rules.
One tracker even mentioned that the rules are there. Some are strictly followed (like naming rules), while others are not followed as strictly.

We have gone from cartridges, to CDs, to kind-of cartridges.
We have kinda gone full circle! Now we need something lile a holocron or like a Cortana AI chip to store an even bigger amount.
