Hypothetically speaking, if one was looking for some, where would they look?

Has anyone seen any particularly good deals for NAS's, storage or memory, mini computers, things like that, for this Black Friday / Cyber Monday season?

Bonus points if you can guess:

  • from which tracker the torrent is and
  • the exact title of the file

This behavior is very concerning, especially since it's not a one-off, their other replies on that account aren't much better.

Right now, it's a bit difficult to go through all of my movies. I know I can create and sort by collection, genre, etc., but it doesn't help when browsing for movies to watch. What I'd like to do is group, for example, all the Harry Potter movies together. Or all the Star Wars movies together. Right now, they take up an inordinate amount of space. Is there a way to configure Plex to have them in a sort of subfolder that expands when selected?

It also says "free of installer bundles" while (at least in past, don't know about now) their default windows installer was including ads (source)

P.S.: If you want to disable the in-app ads, here's how to: https://gist.github.com/yunooooo/87564a0293a1c7a53fb3e233a604c638

I'm just wondering what people's experience is like in cases where they mostly play pirated games

When I found out I had a V1 Switch, I homebrewed it as soon as I was able, and ripped all my games to put them onto an emulator. After looking further into it, I found that homebrewing could improve the console experience as well. I'm eager to use it, but I'd rather not manually inject a payload every time through Tegra. Are there any ways to make the Switch boot into a payload like Hekate?

I'm starting to collect some documentaries for my server but having a hard time finding torrents on the public sites. Is there a torrent site that specializes in documentaries?

I've got legal, authorized access to cengage's ebook platform. HOWEVER: their built-in ereader is absolute CRUD. Does anyone have a tool that can create an epub or pdf from a given cengage book?

I've already checked libgen, anna, ebsco, and the online databases. the book isnt already on there, so once I rip it, it'll get uploaded by me.

Recently I decided to create a community for Kodi addons since there isn't an equivalent to the Reddit version. This community is for discussion and sharing of any Kodi addons but it's mostly about streaming addons. If you have an interest in Kodi addons, or piracy on Kodi in general I recommend subscribing to the linked community, and if you have anything about Kodi addons you want to ask, or any addons in particular you'd like to share I encourage you to post there.

My idea is that, in general, trojans aren't trustworthy for obvious reasons. But this cracker came from cs.rin.ru apparently which I DO trust.

(yes this is a win defender thing BUT I don't know if its onto something lol)

CS rin main post

Github latest release

I read something about !ml is a good sign but I am still skeptical

For example EU based usenet providers like eweka.nl or any other debrid providers in the EU.

What will you take into consideration when choosing your next service?

For the past year or so, I have been fairly happy with the RD, Torrentio, and Stremio setup. I've enjoyed being able to have a mostly seamless streaming experience; just search, click, and watch with little load or wait. In the past, I've experimented with the -arr's and qTorrent setup on a local machine, but I switched to RD for the convenience of being able to spontaneously watch a show or movie (like on a date night).

With the possible (maybe likely) end of RD, I have wanted to look back again at having a personal setup, but I want to see if anyone has recommendations for a setup that is as close as possible to the current one. I know, of course, that a local setup will not have the same benefit as a massive service as RD with a huge cache of torrents ready to go, but is there a way to get close? Round off some of the sharp edges and pain points?

Internet archive seems to only have the layout of things saved (snapshot) but not the actual contents of the page.

Example

This does not contain any of the information, just what it looked like when it was saved I believe. I am wondering if I am wrong on this.

Hey,

I'm looking for suggestions on how to efficiently transfer content to my Oracle Cloud VPS.

What I've Tried:

Telegram Bot: I set up a Telegram bot that saves files locally on the server.

Pros: Easy to use, quick access to files from Telegram.

Cons: Limited to what's available on Telegram, and uploading is slow and impractical.

aria2c: I attempted to use aria2c but couldn't get it to work properly. Is it possible that Oracle Cloud is blocking P2P communication like torrents?

What I Need:

A more convenient method to transfer content to my VPS. I haven't been able to get torrents to work, so any alternative solutions would be appreciated. Additionally, if you know of any direct download sites for content like movies and shows that don't use P2P, that would be helpful.

Thanks in advance!

EDIT: while there are plenty of ways to get stuff from my computer to the VPS (and I'll try some of them), I thought to get things directly to the VPS. it has fast and stable internet connection, unlike my laptop.

I was able to get a list of the most recent anime from aniwave using this reddit thread Goofhey made: https://old.reddit.com/r/animepiracy/comments/1f2xbg7/archived_aniwaves_12000_anime_pages_on_wayback/ and scraping all 411 pages archived in the wayback machine. Back in March I built a web scraper using python requests and beautiful soup and got a list of all of aniwaves current anime sorted in alphabetical order. I compared that list to what was most recently saved in wayback machine by Goofhey. I discovered that some anime were missing. I guess its because the pages saved by Goofhey in the wayback machine were sorted by recently updated and since recently updated is constantly changing it caused some anime to be excluded but I think I got all or most of them by combining both list. Then a using a Disqus scraper I made I fed it links from the list I made and downloaded the comments. I tested the scraper on various sites(myasiantv, gogoanime, aniwave) the scraper can most likely work on most websites that use disqus with a bit of tweaking.

I also managed to get all of Gogoanime's old comments from before 2021 going all the way back to 2014/2015. Something interesting I found is that a few copycat websites(6anime, gogoanimes) still have all of gogoanimes old comments from before 2021.


Most commented pages on each site sorted from most(Aniwave) to least(Anitaku) amount of comments:

Aniwave(9anime): Attack on Titan The Final Season Part 3 Episode 1

Gogoanime Old comments: Yuri on Ice Category page

Anitaku(Gogoanime): Kimetsu no Yaiba Yuukaku Hen Episode 10

For those of us hit by the recent announcement here is a graph I found with some other services worth checking for your next voyages. I have crossed out All-Debrid too as that is also hosted in France and is bound to be hit by the same hammer as Real-Debrid was.

Feel free to share your alternative solutions in the comments below, but always do you research carefully!

The graph shows which Debrid services are supported by each addon for Stremio. Torbox seems to be a new popular and modern alternative. If anyone has any experience with any of the listed services then feel free to share your experiences in the comments.

Edit: Debrid-Link is also French!

Pantheon season 1 is being added to Netflix tomorrow, but season 2 is not (and might never be). Both seasons are on Prime Video but it is region-locked, though I'm not sure which regions it is available in.

Pantheon is a fantastic sci-fi show with really smart themes that has been completely screwed over by streaming services. The writing is incredible and contains some very intelligent satire and critiques of big tech corporations, and even dips its toes into geopolitics (not even kidding, the Israel-Palestine conflict becomes a plot point in season 2, and this was written prior to Oct. 7).

If you want to watch the series in its entirety then piracy is a must for the vast majority. Needless to say, I highly recommend watching.

Like if you want to donate to a website that maintains trackers, or files, do you take steps to make it anon, or just use paypal or whatever? If you do, how do you go about doing that?

Following a formal notice from the FNEF (https://fnef.fr/les-adherents/), Real-Debrid is strengthening its anti-piracy measures. As you already know, we actively comply with DMCA and are already blocking a certain number of infringing torrents. In the coming hours: - audiovisual files available on a number of cyberlockers listed on the USTR blacklist or listed in the European "CCounterfeit and Piracy Watch List" will all be blocked. - a filtering by file name will also be applied, in accordance with the request of the FNEF, this may unfortunately lead to false positives that we will process manually. - a blocking of all torrents hashes of private torrent trackers mentioned in cases at the Paris judicial court - a complete purge of files potentially cached on the previously mentioned criteria - the deactivation of the API endpoint /instantAvaibility - a blocking of counterfeit Kodi / Stremio applications to the extent that they are identifiable

I have been using showrss for very long time to get a rss feed of my tv shows. unfortunately they dont support more than 1080p. I've been looking to upgrade to something that allow me to automate downloads that supports 4k and HDR releases of shows. I don't have access to any private tracker atm.

I currently use the software flexget to automate my downloading, if that is important.

what are my options?

Hi all fellow one-eyed and one-legged rum-gagglers sailors!

I like my ISO collection nicely organized and omogeneous as formats, codecs and resolution.

I know there are already pleanty of solutions like Tidarr, but i find them a bit too much for my needs, and also pretty complex to use.

I wrote a simpler approach in a bash script called "Media Fixer", the URL is at the top of this post.

Feel free to check it out, play with it. I hope it can be useful for others as well as me.
