Veilid is a peer-to-peer network and application framework released by the Cult of the Dead Cow on August 11, 2023, at DEF CON 31. Seems more promising than I2P.

Hi! I'm trying to archive papers as soon as they appear in a scientific journal, and I've attempted to search for PDF links on each page using some regular web scraping.

The problem is that most of these journals will add their fancy PDF readers, and downloading the file is not as straight-forward as it seems. However, the Zotero Connector works flawlessly when you trigger the extension. Therefore, I attempted to set up a selenium instance with this extension to download the papers given a link, but I struggle to actually get the extension to trigger. I tried sending a Shift + Ctrl + S command, but that doesn't seem to get picked up. Similarly, I can't figure out how to call the extension from the console.

Did anyone else attempt such a workflow before? Am I doing something completely unnecessary, as there are better options available? Help a fellow sailor out. Thanks a lot in advance for your help!

Seedbox Reqs (lemmy.dbzer0.com)
submitted 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) by azerial@lemmy.dbzer0.com to c/piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com
 
 

So, I used to have my own VPS and utilize saltbox to roll my own seedbox, but I just can't afford that anymore (could have been my specs, but I was paying like 30-35/mo).

I have used whatbox way back in the day, before my VPS, and it was good.

I'm looking for an adequate seedbox. I'm mostly a Usenet person. I'm very familiar with Linux from terminal.

What do you guys use, other than a VPS and a local NAS. Thanks!

update0: Thank you so much for your advice. I really appreciate it. I'll update once again on what I go with! Much love to the advice!

I know they are not the original actors, but the acting and enviroment look really good in my opinion. It's a shame you can only play it on sweden, goodluck with that! https://www.svtplay.se/the-pirate-bay?kfx=BzwpyF9vC

Anyway, I here is a Base64 encoded link to a rentry.co page so you guys can watch both the 2013 documentary and the 2024 Series with english subtitles, regardless on the country or planet or species.

If anyone is willing to upload the subtitles to another cloud service as a mirror, let me know.

long story short, fuck company; still want shows. I remember popcorn time being good at one point, is it still good?

As the title states I am wondering what would be a good machine to build for my piracy. I am open to buying a used machine on eBay and expanding over time.

The last time I was sailing I had a Dell R610 Server Rack but I don’t have the space for this now. So something that can sit behind a tv stand in the corner next to the router.

  • I would be running Plex / Jellyfin
  • Some kind of torrent software
  • Something for NZBs if still viable
  • then the usual SONARR, RADARR, etc

I would like to be able to let friends connect from outside my house to stream media and allow them access so they can add films and the server goes off and finds them, extracts them, and adds them to the media server.

Thanks.

YouTube Warez (lemm.ee)
submitted 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) by Petter1@lemm.ee to c/piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com
 
 

I recently got my (via VPN) YouTube subscription cancelled and now I am wondering, if YouTube videos are findable in the usenet or using torrent tracker.

Does anyone already have experience with this? I block ads, but it seems not like a sustainable solution.

As easy as taking candy from a megacorp’s intellectual property

Rough Procedure:

  1. Download game of choice from fitgirl-repacks dot site from a separate (linux) computer. (Dont forget to seed folks!)

  2. Install it via lutris. I installed it on my linux PC so Lutris will automatically create a directory under ~/Games

  3. After fitgirl is done with her magic, take the entire directory installed under ~/Games, copy it over to a USB, and transfer it to your steam deck. You would probably need a USB to USB-C adapter for this one.

If you have no such adapter, no worries. What you could do is in desktop mode, install Decky, and from Decky install the terminal plugin (or you can skip installing Decky entirely and just use the terminal from desktop mode. But Decky is a really good plugin and want an excuse for more people to try it out!). SteamOS is by default an immutable distro so you can’t mess around outside your home directory unless you invoke some special linux incantations. Here is the procedure for that: https://christitus.com/unlock-steam-deck/

After you unlock & install the terminal on your steam deck, install and start openssh daemon so your steam deck can be an ssh server so other pcs on your local network can ssh into your steamdeck. From the top of my head the command should be:

sudo pacman -S openssh

sudo systemctl start sshd.service

Or something like that idk 🤷

After that do an “ifconfig” on your terminal emulator on the steam deck to find out the local address of your steam deck (should be something like 10.x.x.x, or 192.168.x.x or something (basically search up what an internal ip should look like)). After you successfully ascertain such code, try to ssh in to your steam deck, and if you can, do an rsync from your PC. (rsync -rl —progress ‘installed game directory’ deck@‘steamdeck internal ip’:/home/deck/Games)

Ok now that it’s done rsyncing, open up steam from desktop mode in your steamdeck, add non-steam game, and choose the exe file in your installed game folder. (Remember when installing from fitgirl, you can choose where to place the game directory? That should be where it is).

Ok now that’s done, try running it and see if it works. Ez. If you want community game layouts set up, copy & paste the game code from steam db as the “Shortcut Name” of your game, and community layouts should show up

Next steps are optional, but basically your installed game will just be blank in your steam library when you play it, so here are the steps to make piracy more ✨a e s t h e t i c✨

Remember you installed decky? Install the steamgriddb plugin from it, and highlight your new non-steam game, and there should be an option called “changed artwork” when you press the three horizontal line button on ur steam deck. Go ham.

Anyway here are the rough details of how i was able to make it work. Ive only tested it with fitgirl but theres no reason other repacks wont work.

I messed up. My server's boot drive failed and I have no backups and have been unsuccessful in recovering any data. It contained the docker container and data for qbittorrent, meaning all the torrent files for the torrents I was seeding are all gone. I still have the files themselves which are intact on a separate raid. The problem Is I don't know how to continue seeding them because I don't have the original torrent files or magnet links or anything. Does anyone know how I can search for torrents that match the files I have, or do I simply have to replace everything one by one in order to continue seeding? Thank you everyone in advance. Also, I should mention that I am currently working on putting together a backup server as soon as parts arrive in a few days.

I have an old school boob tube tv in my room, currently with a firestick running through a converter. It's fine i guess, but i want something else because 1, the aspect ratio is off since it expects to be hooked up to a flatscreen, and 2 the privacy problem of running something from amazon. Is there something that could work here?

Anyone got any hints on finding STL trackers?

I like getting notifications when prowlarr grabs a release but I recently set up https://www.cross-seed.org/ and now I get notifications for every torrent I cross seed when it does. This is probably something obvious but I can not figure it out. They are allready given the category of 'cross-seed-link' and tagged as 'cross-seed'.

Hey, I just published a self-hosted streaming service, it's called Odin. Odin comes in two parts, a server and an Android app. Both can be found on GitHub, with their install instructions.

Odin Server https://github.com/ad-on-is/odin-server

Odin TV App https://github.com/ad-on-is/odin-tv

Motivation:

I've used many of the readily available apps in the past, and they all came with their pros and cons. I was mostly annoyed by the fact, that most of them use their own server-backend, somewhere. So each time, the app stops working, I didn't know whether their server just crashed, or the developer abandoned the app and I had to look for something else. I also started becoming paranoid, whether someone was collecting my data and offering them to "the highest bidder". Oh, and I also disliked the UI of these apps.

That's why I started working on Odin. In fact, I've been using it for almost 4 years now, and did a LOT of iterations during these years. Now, I'm more than happy with the end result, and wanted to share it with the world.

The main features of Odin are:

  • Discovering movies and TV shows
  • A nice and beautiful UI
  • Customizable Trakt lists
  • Multi-User support

I hope you like it!

Oh, and feel free to submit any feature requests or issues on GitHub. If you want, you can star the repo, so I know there's actual interest in the project.

Help would be much appreciated. I can't seem to figure it out. Is it even possible?

Audio, electronic, visual, thermal, olfactory, or similar information. 

Clarification: after a bit of research it seems the olfactory section pertains to CCPA California law, many places have olfactory in the privacy policy because it is required by the law. I can't believe we reached a point where we have to put olfactory in the privacy policy, but then again it won't be long before Smell-O-Vision becomes reality.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smell-O-Vision

They removed it, archived here: https://archive.ph/YYBuJ

Also have a California ip you get a different privacy policy.

Title. It's very easy to find films in the original language or subbed. The megathread has plenty. But I want to build up a collection of kid-appropriate and Brazilian dubbed films for my nephew.
