some times i wish lemmy had awards
I am so glad we don’t, modern Reddit awards are such an assault on the eyes lol.
the gold, the genius lightbulp and the star awards were actually useful, highlighting the best answer for question on r/math or r/eli5 …ect and F u/spez comments nowadays
Would be great if money goes to instance owners and devs
https://ripped.guide/ can be pretty handy.
Thank you!
Nice try totally not in the FBI Garry!!!
Shhhhh, it’s called the fediverse for a reason
Library Genesis
Anna’s archive
And Sci-Hub while were at it
My main suggestion is to make your pirate searches using Yandex. Most book names “pdf” will give a result. You can also filter to only show sites of a specific language.
You know I just thought about sharing my entire piracy bookmark folder (while excluding some subfolders and/or sites) on Brave Android, is there any way to do so?
- StaxRip (Windows only)
- A terminal emulator
- Jellyfin (think FOSS plex alternative)
Twitter client - squawker Lemmy - Jebora YT - Newpipe Spotify - blackhole VPN - Bitmask & Orbot
AnyVideoConverter and VLC video player
Mpv
VLC is underrated?
Yeah, tbh most people do not use it to its full capabilities!
How do you use it? Teach us in your ways
For Manga/Comics/Webtoons/Etc.:
Tachidesk on desktop
Tachiyomi on mobile.
These are both fantastic and allow you to grab manga, comics, etc. from pretty much every site you can think of to have it all in one place.For Movies/TV/Anime:
Kodi + Debrid + Arctic Horizon 2/TMDbHelper + Fen + Otaku (resources: 1, 2; screenshots: album)
I love this. I can watch literally anything I want as if it was a netflix-like service, and don’t have to use a VPN. Can even throw this on a shield/chromecast/firestick.edit: tachidesk doesn’t have a fit-to-page feature, but you can just use stylus with this:
img{
height:100vh ; /* fit height of screen */
min-width:0 ; /* also needed for fit height */
}
edit 2: Also, not really piracy per se, but Syncplay is great for watching downloaded content with friends.Banged my head against Tachidesk for a bit tonight, I do not see how to import sources, even a local one, I guess there is more hidden config stuff to do.
I do not see how to import sources
You need to install extensions before you can use the source section to perform a search. Once you’ve done that, typing something into the search field under sources will search through all the extensions you have installed.
even a local one
They have an entire guide on that.
XDCC
What is that?
If you have ever heard of IRC it uses that network to directly send files to you. Basically you need an IRC client then you message a bot for the file(s) you want it to send to you. There are xdcc search engines like sunxdcc and you can usually find books, audio, anime, etc.
Oooh so it’s my first time hearing and after looking it up, WHY AREN’T PEOPLE USING IT? Like why pay for a VPN, when you have stuff like this? What are the limiting factors for XDCC?
https://movie-web.app/ Its pretty good.
I can’t believe they got arabic subs
This feels like something that should be used with a VPN. Be careful.
Well, since it is just a an organised frontend for a multiple HLS streaming sources, I wouldn’t worry about my IP leaking (it’s not P2P).
Your ISP can only see the domains which you are connecting to, not the content that is transferred (cuz https).
If you are still paranoid, just route it through tor! It’s just a website after all. (ik it’s slow but it works!)
Except it’s often not your ISP going after you, and https does not protect against everything. A few years ago there was a scandal in Germany when a moneygrubbing law firm took out ads on a porn site to get user IPs and the referer header, then sent demands to users for illegally downloading copyrighted material.
A court initially rubber-stamped the requests for IP info from the law firm.
A better judge/court clarified the law (streaming is fine in Germany) in that case and there were hopefully consequences for the law firm and the lawyers involved, but some suckers paid hush money first.
That is nonsense.
At least in the US, no one has ever been charged for using (implicitly non-p2p) streaming sites. People are charged for distribution - that is, the upload portion of p2p. Just viewing stuff in your browser is perfectly safe without a VPN.
Right, the concern is that is true until it isn’t safe. Someone is going to be the first to be charged.
