Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ

I recently download Forza Horizon 5 (magnet link https://rentry.co/k54gre2s) from fitgirl and got a microsoft defender alert . I scanned the file using virustotal (256 sum 66406a8c98b934cefe8e247d09c271095ef11fd1544d34cf6c3a02d09f4c869c) virustotal displays 12/74 security vendors flagged this file as malicious.

I've been roaming the megathread; I just can't seem to find what Im looking for.

I remember GOG games (or at least some?), provide separate patch EXE's. I was wondering if there is a compilation of these so I can update Skyrim to the latest version.

Alternatively, if someone knows anything about skyrim, there is an incompatibility with my older version of SKSE and Address Library T_T.

Thank you!

Hey all,

Not exactly directly piracy but since I pirated the material I'm talking about thought it would fit. When I download books I often get both the audiobook and the epub of the same book but most of the audio books are in the format of the whole book in one file. Is there a website or someway to see timestamps on the audio book to relate with chapters in the book. I often listen to the book while cleaning or doing random things but want to read the same book later and having to find the right spot is hard and takes a long time.

Thanks

TLDR: Download your content offline before it gets lost forever.

From now on you should never trust online hosting, I started seeing a lot of piracy sources( Streaming websites, torrent indexes,.. Etc) get shut down.

So I highly recommend for all pirates to download anything they want offline to reuse and don't trust keeping it online, sadly for me, a lot of material had been lost as there is almost no online service or piracy service has it( I am talking about material that is 5-10 years old.).

I know that this is not the first time piracy websites/hosts gets taken down but this time feels different as it became aggressive and I feel that in the next months a considerable amount of content are going to be lost.

(Where I first found this)

I have lots of torrents downloaded through transmission, which I would like to continue seeding through i2p via the XD client, without having to re-download the files. How do I "move" my seeding to i2p? Do I have to upload the torrents to an i2p torrent tracker, or can I avoid that?

Would you recommend this in the first place?

Sorry for the stupid question folks, help is appreciated, even if not specific to these clients. Thanks in advance!

fmovies has been gone almost a month. I should have added "FBI" up there but really they used FBI to shoot down the service, not be like them.

I don't understand when these companies are going to learn that sharing their IP is going to get them more money than being so fractured.

I started using sudo-lol and seems okay. Streaming can be hinky at times but it works for most of the things I want to watch.

I know that torrenting can be a thing but sometimes I just want to watch and not deal with a whole finding a torrent, download, and then watch workflow.

I've decrypted a few videos of a worldwide event that includes all types of sports and stuff that is now happening in France (can't mention the name explicitly), and I've been able to get the entire opening ceremony and other types of videos. Where can I post/talk to the groups that distribute these videos so I can contribute to them?

My young cousin is big into planes and is in a flight club, he really wants that specific simulator. Does anyone know where I could get the full version from?

I'm trying to download Many Sides of Jane. All the torrents I can find are dead, and while I tried StreamFab and KeepStreams, both of them said they wouldn't work because of DRM (and I thought DRM circumvention was the whole reason they exist!) How can I get this show?

P.S. It's on philo.com with a free 7 day trial.

I’d like to prioritize bandwidth for trackers where ratio is hard and de-prioritize trackers where almost everything is freeleech. Is there a way to do this?

Hi there,

I want to download this ebook as an epub https://www.chbeck.de/petersdorff-ewige-brunnen/product/35603774

I can't find it anywhere. Where can I fand ebooks that are not on annas archive?

I had a Youtube Subscription mainly for using Youtube Music since last year. I used to be on Newpipe before that. However, the mobile app always made be feel uneasy. From not being able to choose system wide video quality for all Youtube videos at once[ seriously, there is like 'High' or 'Data Saver' only and explicit options are available per videos only ] to Youtube nudging me to purchase/join a Youtuber's membership channel really irked me [I just paid you, Youtube ; why are you constantly asking me to pay more for something I don't want? Why can't I disable those notifications ?]

I have some time remaining on my subscription but converted to Tubular [Newpipe fork with Sponsorblock] simply because it doesn't treat it's end users like trash. Even for YTM, I switched to Revanced version which offered endless customization. I could hide useless stuff like cast, share buttons to even functions in the Account tab. The granular control was so much that I was able to get a simplistic neat looking UI setup.

In the transition, I understand, I lose some of my playlists [under a throwaway Google account since I don't wish to risk my main one getting banned] but I understand that the only true way anyone controls their music[or any form of data is by truly owning them and streaming services don't allow that]. It might sound stupid, but I have been downloading music from Soulseek for some time and now just plan to transfer some of my favorites over to the SD card.

It was never a money problem. It was an experience problem. I paid money to Google and all I got was Shorts, Games and other stuff I didn't wanted. I never got customization or fine grained controls. The open source community offers that. Sorry for the long rant.

While trying to find a torrent for a show, I became curious about how others are creating the torrents I know and love. Is ripping a video from a streaming service relatively easy? Are there tools y'all would recommend?

Don't you hate it when that game you used to play, vanishes from your library? Or what if you download it, but it doesn't work anymore because it's a single-player with an online only DRM. Or you're waiting for the DENUVO crack, but it never comes and the games goes EOL and forgotten? Well, turns out someone had enough and decided to start a campaign for it. If you pay for media, you may want this. If you like it free, someone needs to crack first it, and that doesn't always happen. So you may want this too.

Spread the message. If you're European, seriously consider voting. We don't own digital movies, and if we don't put a stop to this, more games will follow. Make the pirate party proud.
