Adult film producers Strike 3 Holdings and Counterlife Media have filed a significant copyright infringement lawsuit against tech giant Meta. A complaint filed at a California federal court alleges that their films were downloaded via BitTorrent for AI training purposes. With at least 2,396 movies at stake, potential damages could exceed 350 million dollars.

Itch.io just banned lgbt content at the reauest of payment providers. It is now, short of finding them and handing them food, impossible to pay the last group of artists i was giving money to, because the mechanisms of payment have decided they cannot be paid.

But I still want the stuff they've made, their back catalogues, etc.

From what I know, most guides on piracy on steam deck involves running the game through Steam's launcher as a "Non-Steam Game" which kinda feels sketchy to me, since the Steam Launcher portion of SteamOS is not open source, and they could be phoning home to Steam's servers and reporting me as a pirate. Maybe they don't go hard on pirates for now, but at any point in the future, they could pull a Nintendo move.

Sanity Check on IPTV (midwest.social)
submitted 1 day ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

So I want to add IPTV to my entertainment menu. (If you have good provider or app recommendations, DM me). But I want to run it through VPN.

What I'm thinking of doing is getting an inexpensive, second android box to use to watch IPTV. Then set up a VPN tunnel on my router and send all traffic from that device through the VPN.

That ensures I won't disrupt any existing streaming services with VPN, and I won't have to remember to fire up the VPN before watching IPTV (more importantly, I'm sure my kid won't remember). Thoughts?

It seems like my Monotype free trial probably expired when I tried to create a new account. Now, I can't find the "Start Free Trial" button.

VP(dot)net? (lemmy.sdf.org)
submitted 1 day ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

Has anyone tried this out? I'm pretty new to VPNs and was wondering if this is a good alternative to other services that have been found to keep logs or use servers in countries that give in to record requests.

Hi everyone, reddit refugee here.

I heard that macdrop had a good reputation.

I went there, and got redirected to cmacked

In cmacked, there seemed to be no Adobe Zii anywhere.

Is there a trustworthy place from which I can download Adobe Zii please?

I know this is a dumb question... But i cant really aford a vpn like at all, is it possible to torrent without using a vpn in the USA or will i get in some trouble and go to jail if i torrent without a vpn?

The reason i cant get a vpn is because im just broke and im young enough to live with family so i cant really get a job.

I'm sorry this idea is kind of hard to explain. Like if you had a torrent, but every week or so you'd have new interesting stuff to discover from it ?

LIke a "torrent channel" but fully decentralized somehow ?

Maybe you'd just get more torrents to choose from. Large, searchable torrent archives, "this week's new torrents" ?

What about receiving news video, streams without a website to coordinate it, no gatekeeper except the digital signature of the strangers you trust ?

Like, why isn't facebook a torrent network ? Why isn't youtube, just torrents ? Facebook and youtube without having to ask Zuck and Goog for permission ?

I somehow have a bunch of blank cd and dvds that i got from thrift stores and parents. There good for some linux os's but besides that im not sure what else to put on them or do with them. I would like to create a sort of binder for rainy days with various media but im stumped.

Im asking what type of media i should put on theses dvds/cds. I would do music but im not the biggest music fan sadly.

Hi I'm looking for this software but came across only greymarket sites like fastestkey, and others, as I don't really have the money. Is there any place I can find it? It would really help me a lot because I don't have the money. Thanks.

Update: I tried torrenting sites, FTP, open directories, and almost all methods from fmhy to find the file still cant find it.

I'm curious to view real time stats for trackers I'm a member of. I see stats posted in open signups, and I know about the private tracker website, but I don't see where the stats are displayed on the sites themselves. Is that because I'm not on the staff or are they just tucked away in a menu somewhere?

OK, first off I know about get_iplayer and it doesn't suit my needs but thanks for the thought.

I'm trying to download entire seasons of a particular show I can't find quality torrents of all 26 seasons anymore. I'm using a tool called yt-dlg which is simply a GUI for yt-dlp which is a fork of YouTube-dl.exe. Now, with that out of the way.

So, I right click the channel off the iPlayer page with my trusty VPN on and select copy clean link. I paste it into the GUI, it begins parsing and off we go. Depending on the season, it's through in about 30mins. BTW, it pulls the files down and reassembles them into an MP4 container with a MPEG-TS video and AAC audio stream.

All good, right? Wrong! Although the videos play fine in VLC, I receive an error at the end of the batch process stating "Possible MPEG-TS in MP4 container or malformed AAC timestamps. Install ffmpeg to fix this automatically". Greek to me so I proceed to my converter of choice, FastFlix and drop the file in for cropping/conversion to HEVC/AC3 and when I start the conversion I get the error message "Invalid Timestamps..." over and over while the file attempts to render.

Any mateys out there with more brains than me, HELP! I'm lucky I could even remember all this. LOL

All positive support appreciated!!!

Hey all, I'm looking for the CMI plugin for the most recent version of minecraft possible. I do plan to buy it, but want to test it first to make sure it will work for my needs.

Does anyone have any good sources for premium MC Server plugins? I feel like it's a bit of a niche genre.
