I have an amazing ratio on a private tracker, but they continue to warn me about being deactivated/banned due to inactivity on their site. Why? I have zero reason to visit their site. Seems like they are purposely trying to ban folks with good ratio just so someone could potentially use their pointless front-end chat.

i usually go for Fitgirl repacks, but she hasn't repacked the game in 2 years (KSP 2, fuck the publisher for how they treated the game and abandoned it), but i see the newest version of it from IGGGAMES on 1337x, but i heard that they were caught injecting miners into their cracks years ago.

I know that it's always a gamble with cracked stuff, but are IGGGAMES still as untrustworthy as they were before or has anything changed?

My PIA expires tomorrow, had it for 5 years, worked well for the ONLY thing I do, torrent, but thinking I should try something else

I only need one decide, PC, and ONLY torrent, no streaming, nothing else. I can get PIA 39 months for basically $30 or so once cashback figured into it

I'm 20, I only just learnt how to do this today and it's comedically easy. I'm surprised how everyone else my age seems to have already known this from the age of 14 like it's the digital equivalent of learning to ride a bike. I feel old

I didn't learn to ride a bike until I was 19

I wanted to share this here since I see a lot of comments recommending switching to Brave instead of FireFox.

The TL;DR of this article is that their continued support for critical extensions such as uBlock Origin will be a "best effort" but they aren't making any promises of full, long-term, support. So, do with that what you will.

Hey the fellow pirates

In Turkey there is a ban on instagram and may follow up with more and I was wondering if there is a kind of a way to avoid this censorship. I dont want to pay for a vpn as it’s not clear that ban may be revoked any time or forever. I tried out 1.1.1.1 and 8.8.8.8 dns and got no results. Any ideas?

I've been sailing the torrent high seas for about 22 years. However, I haven't tried RD. I recently learned that torrents work with RD, but I don't know anything about how it works. My main concern is IP address logging. What gets logged when torrenting with RD? I'm in the US, so I don't want any unpleasant surprises.

Right now I just have an Apple TV 4K to stream 4k/Atmos but would like to try downloading and getting better quality. As of hardware once I get the Shield I’ll have everything just not sure if this is possible or if so what software do I need? Mac or windows.

Thanks! Sorry if this question is vague!

Please use a dark theme; it's not that hard to find/use, and you won't burn your eyes.

Always have two folders: one for games and another for torrents because everyone should be a seeder. These are my tips for today. If you have some to share, like settings for being a good seeder, I would appreciate it.

Ayooo!

Hey mateys !

I've learnt something recently that you might find interesting especially if you live (or come for a trip) in France. This also applies to books, CD videogames and DVD/blu-ray movies.

To be clear and simple, in France you can come in any public library (and many of them have hundreds or thousands of music CD) with your laptop, your external hard drives and your own CD drive(s) to rip music for free and unlimited as long as it is for private usage.

As long as you do it inside the library (because to be legal, you need to rip for private usage something that you can access legally and CDs in public librairies are legal as long as you do not borrow them and borrowing them by itself is still a gray area here even if librairies do not care and just offer the service anyway since years).

Don't forget to support artists directly if you really like some songs because music is not free to produce. But if you are poor or if you want to quickly startup a big collection of perfect quality 44.1KHz/16 bits FLACS while staying 100% legal (or if you just like free music because it's cool), here we have this other option rather than just sailing the seas.

It might also be a good option about CDs that are not sold new anyway since years, and buying them second hand does not support the artist anyway so ripping them in the library makes sense and looks very ethical in this case (and it is 100% legal haha). It can also be a way to find CDs that are not archived anywhere else in the internet.

What I find kinda funny is that this practice really smells like piracy, by duplicating tons of content for free from a single centralized place. But it's really legal and real libraries all around the country are organizing sometimes "copy-parties" events to incite people to come with their scanners and CD drives to make private copies of everything (books, CDs, DVDs, blu-rays, CD videogames etc) from the library. Bypassing strong DRMs (on blu-rays/CD videogames) to make a private copy seems also to be legal and tolerated : .

Hope you've learnt something. I don't know if some other countries have similar laws that allow things like this. Feel free to make your own researches :)
