Today I encountered a nagging screen from AutoCAD 2018 telling me that my AutoCAD license is invalid. It appears every few minutes. You can close it and continue using the software freely but the nagging dialog is getting annoying.

I downloaded it from rutracker years ago. No nagging screen appeared until today.

Does anyone know how I can fix this? I already added a rule in the Firewall settings to block connections.

Apologies if my wordings are bad, English is not my native language. Also, I'm not savvy about these stuff so please bear with me, thank you.

EDIT: added the version of AutoCAD to the title and body.

The original /r/piracy was purposefully gimped because Reddit received DMCAs for any random thing and didn't even bother to follow up. Since we're in new waters, I want things to be a bit more relaxed, but there's a limit on how relaxed we can be, without starting to get lawsuits, which I will not be able to fight off. I also host other communities and interests which might cause me headaches.

Remember, this is a hobby project (and none of you scurvy dogs are donating) :D

So here are some piracy-related ground rules for he whole of lemmy.dbzer0.com as of today

1. No direct links. This means anything which would make Nintendo or Disney light my ass on fire. I am not going to ban you for it (unless you start doing this on purpose), but I will ask admins and mods to remove them.
2. You can link to websites pages related to piracy. Linking to websites linking to your content (not with a 301 redirect, before you ask) is OK. In general try to keep one degree of separation between our collective groins and your links.
3. Magnet Links and links to Torrent files are OK, unless we start getting into trouble for it.
4. /c/piracy has its own, more restrictive rules. Follow them first when they differ from what I post here! /c/piracy is for generic discussion, I don't want it to turn into a link repository full of beggars, got it?
5. These rules apply to all pirate communities in lemmy.dbzer0.com. Unless that community has more restrictive rules from its own mods. I can easily get a lawsuit because you start making a nintendo ROM link repository.
6. You can still post direct links elsewhere: If you want a place to post direct links, I suggest you use a community on a server setup to handle this. This requires some significant investment in anonymity and hosting provider (these providers are 3x as expensive, yo!). You can still subscribe and share from those communities with your account in lemmy.dbzer0.com, which can serve as your "port of safety" as those lemmies could be taken down due to those links. If that happens, this safer community will still be up.

All in all, this lemmy is supposed to be Pirate-allied, but not a direct link repository. I literally cannot handle that legal risk at the moment. I hope you all understand the realities of our situation. As much as we can argue that a link to a file is not infringing, the Cartel's legal fund is bottomless, and all I have is a tinsy-tiny treasure chest under my birdbath.

If any pirate communites need to migrate after this, I understand. I would still suggest you keep them around as the "safe" community, and post your link aggregation on a lemmy instance which can handle the eye of sauron. This way you get both a stable community and account, and your links via fediverse. Win-win.

So I'm searching for another website (other than kemono) that bypasses/hosts dumped paywalled websites (patreon, etc), can anyone recommend a similar websites to kemono (just in case kemono went under)

New joiner carry over from r/piracy. Joined that community just before the protest went live and thanks to this community was able to find MANY alternatives. So my way of giving back. I have checked gowatchseries tv every few days to come back to the 'cache' errors that we all know and love. Today I was able to go to the main page and tried out a few links and searches. It is 'partially' back. In that some series in general or some 'episodes' of some seasons of shows are still doing the 'cache'. I have seen this happen with watchserieshd when it was active. Partially working and such before 'the forever lost'.

My suggestion is to quick as you can collect URLs of each episode of shows you watch / movies and store them in a notepad. Some days some of them will work. Other days, other URLs will work instead. The site is good for its multiple download links and subs to download (to go through faster). Do what you can as quickly as possible before we lose ANOTHER great site.

-edit- seems like the homepage is buggy. add " search.html? " at the end of the home page URL will bring you over to the search area which is working for me at this time.

Anyone have some feedback/critic on the glossary, I'm looking to improve it. If there are any terms that need to be updated, removed or added please let me know!

Hey guys, just wondering if anyone can point me into the right direction if there is a site or group where you can get online courses or possible crowdfunded

A really really small gripe, but reddit is like one of the go-to places for support. Even the megathread isn't as usable as it used to be without it. I still wanna keep the protest going. That being said, if the sub was reopened in restricted mode, so that users could only view existing posts and not post or comment, I don't think anyone would complain

I asked this before on reddit, but with the blackout, I can't see what was replied. What are some good sites to use if I wanna pirate games and software on linux. On 1337x there's jc141 but his repacks are a lil weird.

I remember a couple sites were suggested but I can't seem to find them

Some of them that come to mind for me are:

• FitGirl's Escape from Tarkov repack that featured a single player mod

• FitGirl's Half Life Alyx repack that with the NoVR mod

• Gnarly's Tale of Two Wastelands repack that had everything ready to go after the install. No need to install both Fallout 3 & New Vegas and wait hours for things to compile

Finally in, well reddit is block so anyways I’m looking for a way to download sketchfab models that are not available for download. The scripts that I try to use didnt work anymore. Please lend me any info, I know about Ninja Ripper but I want to try to find a free way first if posible I need to paid other things and this is more for a hobbie that anything

Hi I'm new from reddit and I need help finding a tutorial for getting adobe products. I can't find any on here edit:removed the name of pirated site

Does anyone know where to find well ready or not latest version with multiplayer. Thanks.

What is a good place to find rare Slayer recordings, live or otherwise?

I have been using this site to locate FileFactory links but they seem torrent-averse:

https://www.guitars101.com/search/557471/?q=slayer&o=relevance

The National Day of Slayer site has some classics in lossy format as well:

https://www.nationaldayofslayer.org/slayer/download/?utm_source=amerika.org

I can't access the "regular" 1337 link that's been posted here because the site is blocked. But i did find this alternative link that seems to work:

https://1337x-to.pages.dev/

Is that safe though?

I'm looking for a way to use gpt4 and the plugins which are futures for ChatGPT plus. Does anybody know if there is any way to access it for free?

IS IT TRUE THAT SOAP2DAY IS SHUT DOWN? IDK

I want to watch f1 streams, but the news channels around me don't host f1, so where can I watch the live streams?

In my case it's under 500mb. What are the options?

I wish I had the theme manager to use sai2 dark theme but having to pay 8$ for that is already hard

Hey, I just inherited my grandmothers sewing machine which seemingly has a embroidery feature.

I doubt she ever used it, and looking online its hard enough to obtain a embroidery program, let alone one under $1k.

I've tried to search for torrents that will allow digitalization, but seemingly its only Wilcom e.4 and I can't find one that isint in a proper file format.

Please help!

How can I crack filmora 12? I made a project in it and dont want to re-make it. I've tried numerous sites but I can't get it to work, and most sites are too sketchy for me to even want to try them.
