Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ

Hi, I saw a couple releases by hallowed and was wondering if the quality is good. Does anyone know how they compare to other 4k encodes?

Is there any good windows and android real debrod client?

This is a good example of how copyright’s continuing obsession with ownership and control of digital material is warping the entire legal system in the EU. What was supposed to be simply a fair way of rewarding creators has resulted in a monstrous system of routine government surveillance carried out on hundreds of millions of innocent people just in case they copy a digital file.

I was just curious about this because I haven’t seen anything on this community, and I don’t want to get in trouble with my ISP since it’s the only reliable one in my area. If so, is it exclusively the paid tiers, or free tiers too?

Stupid question but is it possible to get a virus from an MKV file that is less than 24 hours old. I was streamed using VLC version 3.0.20 form the repose on Linux.

OK, so, I have a couple of questions:

• What's the worst that can happen if I don't use a VPN while pirating?
• Are free tier VPNs (like Proton VPN) good enough?
• I don't want to pay much or anything for a VPN, is a way I can get a good free one, or set one myself somehow (I have experience with selfhosting) ?
• If not, which cheap one do you recommend?

EDIT: I pirate mostly movies, and rarely some TV series.

Lets say you pirate CAD software like Autodesk Inventor or Dassault Solidworks.

Which company is more aggressive toward pirates? Which software is more dangerous to pirate?

For example I heard Adobe is pretty lax about piracy and it's usually no big deal if you pirate Photoshop. So I wonder how it is with CAD companies.

I have seen a lot of posts about people receiving letter from Dassault about pirated Solidworks. But not so much about Autodesk. So I wonder if Autodesk software is safer to pirate than Dassault software.

Thanks for any advice or experience.

I want to seed some files but idk how to make a torrent, every time I try something breaks, how do I do it

Found this cool vid on twitter https://x.com/KevOnStage/status/1798744950236131379

Wanted to download it. However big tech doesn't want its users to be in control of their own data and does not show the option of downloading the video from their site. Big tech can suck my dick.

The streaming sites listed on https://rentry.co/megathread-movies-and-tv#streaming have plenty of duplicates. Essentially, they're the same sites with different names/skins but the exact same content.

It would be beneficial to the community if we could consolidate these down into groups according to which ones are the same.

We can still list all of them, but perhaps do it together so people don't waste their time trying out the same site under a different name.

As the title says, I'm looking for a private tracker with a good sized library of 1080p AV1 encodes. I'm on LST.gg and there's a handful of uploaders and encoders there that have given me the opportunity to upgrade some of my library to AV1, but I keep hearing about how great AV1 is for anime and there isn't really any anime in AV1 there. An anime specific tracker would be great if they have a decent amount of AV1, but I'm also interested in general cartoons and live action TV/movies.

I have access to a MAM's invite forum and have a well established ratio on several trackers, so once I know where to go hopefully I'll be able to get in.

Vimms lair is starting to remove many roms that are being requested to be removed by Nintendo etc. soon many original roms, hacks, and translations will be lost forever. Can any of you help make archive torrents of roms from vimms lair and cdromance? They have hacks and translations that dont exist elsewhere and will probably be removed soon with ios emulation and retro handhelds bringing so much attention to roms and these sites

Fellow Scallywags, I'm trying to share my booty (not that one). But my average upload speed is 294,4 kiB/s, while my average download is 6.1MiB/s.

I've tried ProtonVPN port forwarding, but that doesn't seem to increase it much more than compared to Mullvad without port forwarding.

Is it nomal that uploading is this much less than downloading? What can I do to increase upload speeds? Using qbittorrent.

Okay so I've found that it's related to connection limits, while writing this post up; the old just search it up.

So instead what are some good tips regarding connection limits?

Why do some peers have unusual client names in qbittorrent

I actually bought ultrakill but now I have an even bigger respect for the chad that is Hakita

Hello,

I set up Stremio + Real Debrid for my girlfriend and we have been really enjoying it.

Since we use different VPNs at the moment, I had the idea to create a VM with stremio and a connection to the same server she's connected to.

The idea being we could use the debrid account simultaneously and have the same IP.

I quickly realized that the last digit of our client IPs were 0-3 digits off from each other, IE:

185.243.218.89 vs 185.243.218.90

Upon seeing this I stopped and checked the debrid account/email to check for a warning and saw nothing.

Question 1: Is this safe/acceptable, or is this considered breach of debrid TOS?

Question 2: Would configuring a VPN on our router solve this issue? Or would it be the same situation?

I'm a bit of a networking idiot as you can see but I'm on a journey to learn.

Thanks in advance

Hey Folks, I have a bit of a conundrum that I'm hoping the hive mind can assist with.

I am in the process of learning docker to prep for my migration to Linux, but I have some questions about my filesystem structure. Currently my media files of all types live on a single file-based iSCSI LUN hosted on a QNAP which I connect to from a Windows machine. In my research to see if this would be consistent with best practice, I came to the conclusion that I should create independent NFS shares that the docker containers would connect to individually, rather than serving the files to the containers through the host and it's iSCSI connection.

This leads to my problem.

I can't seem to find any way to directly copy data from the LUN to one of my newly created NFS shares. With the volume of data I'll need to copy I'm trying to avoid as much overhead as possible, and using my Windows machine to connect to the new NFS share, then transferring the files from the iSCSI share, would be ludicrously inefficient.

As I'm able to SSH into my NAS, my first thought was to try and mount the iSCSI file locally and rsync the contents directly to the NFS share. After finding the home of the iSCSI file in the NAS filesystem, I discovered that it is not stored as a single, mountable file, but broken up into 1TB chunks. This leaves me unable to mount it, even in part, as each of the files lack an identifiable filesystem. Further, this is my largest partition, and so I don't (currently) have the space to attempt to concatenate the files into a single file (assuming that would even work, no idea).

After giving up on this approach, I decided to try and log into it's own external iSCSI target (from the NAS), then mount the LUN as I would from an external client. I thought I might be in the clear, as the login was successful, and both iscsiadm and the NAS GUI showed the active session to itself. But no matter where I looked I could see no evidence of a newly available partition, only those that were there from before I connected to the iSCSI target.

At this point the next step seems to be shrinking the partition and trying to concatenate the iSCSI files as I mentioned earlier. I have the space to play with, but I'll need to convert the volume to thin-provisioned, then shrink the volume, which would likely take foreverrrrrrr. But really, even this option sucks, because I'd prefer to avoid jeopardizing my primary storage volume in changing the provisioning style.

So anyway, after banging my head on it for the last few hours, I decided to step away and do some "rubber ducky debugging" with you guys.

So here are my questions: Is migrating to NFS worth the effort? Would the file concatenation method even work? COULD the loopback iSCSI method work if I do something differently? Any other tricks, or maybe something in the QNAP App Marketplace?

Any assistance welcome, thanks for reading!

I was looking for a pretty niche indie game, but I wanted to try it out before purchasing... The only link that still works is made by a user who made their account 4 years ago and about 700 posts, but also 1 warning.

How do I know whether or not I should trust this link?

I've recently installed tailscale as a plugin on my Unraid NAS with the *arr suite and random other things on it.

I was under the impression that once I had everything set up, I would be able to access my LAN services the exact same way remotely as if I was at home connected to WiFi, specifically with their local 192.168.1.x:xxxx addresses.

What I've found is that I can't do that with the local addresses, but tailscale provides me with a separate external address that I can use with the proper port numbers for the Unraid containers, which I've added via the subnet router function, although I don't totally understand how that works tbh.

Beyond that, I have a raspberry pi that runs home assistant, and I expected to be able to access that as well, but haven't been able to figure that out. Must I install tailscale on that device as well? I thought that by using my NAS as an exit node, I'd be able to get to it.

Pardon my ignorance and thank you for your help.

hope this isn't a violation of rule 3
