CLI IRC for life =)))) >>> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WeeChat

Neah, I'm WeeChat (https://weechat.org/) fan.

I tell you what, in 2026 using IRC makes me FEEL younger every day.

Thank you, I was actually suprised this will be so popular. I thought EVERYONE already knew about this.

I dont know about other servers but on scenep2p znc is allowed also all of this servers offer host masking. I'll add this into the post.

Of course it is, I'm still using custom script I wrote long ago. But irc servers/channels intentionally try to stay low =))

You asking me? If you are of course I did its very easy.

I don't use Transmission or UFW, I use Area2 (CLI) and IPTables. But from what i know of UFW its just a frontend for IPTables. So firewall rules should be similar. So here are few rules you can try, but I highly recommend you do your research on how to properly use UFW or IPTables with Transmission.

// This command resets all your existing rules.
sudo ufw reset

// Block all outgoing and incoming traffic by default.
sudo ufw default deny outgoing
sudo ufw default deny incoming

// Allow outgoing connections via VPN interface only.
// Allow forwarding traffic through the VPN interface tun0
// Change "tun0" to your VPN interface and 12345 port to your Transmission port.
sudo ufw allow out on tun0 to any port 12345 proto tcp
sudo ufw allow out on tun0 to any port 12345 proto udp

// Allow VPN service traffic on your normal interface (exp. eth0 or wlan0)
// Replace x.x.x.x to your VPN server port and 1194 port to your VPN port.
sudo ufw allow out to x.x.x.x port 1194 proto udp

// Optionally if you dont want to restrict your vpn per ip/port do something like this.
// Change eth0 to your network interface and 1194 port to your VPN port.
sudo ufw allow out on eth0 to any port 1194 proto udp

// Enable your UFW firewall rules.
sudo ufw enable

I'm from back in time, and I can tell you that present timeline sucks! I don't know if I can stay in this timeline, might have to travel back. Just need to fix oil in my time machine and i'm good to go.

• #moviegods maybe it changed now, but this was like 2-3 years ago. Before the second they detected you are using proxy/vpn you were auto banned.
• #the.source.nospam maybe it changed now, few months ago you were able to use it unregistered. But its alwasy recommended to register your nick and use SASL/SSL to authenticate.
• skullxdcc I looked at the style of coding and it seems not, but i dont know.

EDIT: My bad for some reason I confused skullxdcc with xdcc.rocks. You might be right.

All you need now is about 6TB of storage and you can have complete spotify library offline (see) Its not much, only about 15.42 million artists, 58.6 million albums and 256 million songs. Also see related torrent freak article (here)

Using linux and downloading only media files makes you 90% safer. But malware comes in many shapes, for example i've seen it executed from .pdf or .url or .lnk files. Even if you download only music and movies, dont open included files like that. And if possible make a filter to not download anything except what you need like .mkv .mp4 .mp3 .flac

Using a killswitch on any vpn is a must, and actually number one good practice you should always do at firewall level. If you use linux use iptables or ufw for that dont rely just on your vpn software. Another good practice is to bind your transmission to specific network/ip/port. So when your vpn killswitch triggered software stops to function.

SSD/HDD encryption is really a personal preference its not required if you are torrenting. I would use encrypted storage for more important things than just your movies/shows =) But remember encrypted storage does not save you from a virus or malware.

Actually avoid using pirate bay org use something more modern like EXT (dot) TO or 1337x (dot) TO or something more smaller like YTS (dot) BZ or uIndex (dot) TO or PiratesParadise (dot) ORG or EZTVx (dot) TO or if you want CAM/TS try CinemaCity (dot) CC (but it has watermark logo flying around) The reason why I say try not to use pirate bay is because from my own experience that where the most malware and viruses are coming to torrents from.

And joing a private tracker really not required, the piracy is so widespread now its actually more work than just finding content in the open. Everything sooner or later ends up in the open. Leaks of content from scene, p2p groups or private trackers happen hourly.

Another alternative you could try is direct downloading, there are many places out there, especially for older content. For the newest content i recommendation using irc, its so easy and quick and you can automate downloads.
