Educational content. I'll get udemy or pluralsite content if I'm studying a topic. It has helped me earn certs and stay informed on different tech.

Its been as easy as searching stuff like YAML or AWS on tracker sites. There is a surprising amount of content. I even got some cool cooking content from Master Class

lol, got to argue about the new eurofighter some how

Audiobooks! I buy the books but I'm too lazy to read them.

If you buy the book but listen to it as an audiobook, wouldn't buying the audiobook in the first place be an option then?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago

That'd be great, but I don't have where to buy them. Plus having them as physical books is easier to share them, since not everyone likes audiobooks.

Might be controversial, but I pirate OnlyFans content (porn). I ain't payin a monthly subscription for that shit. Telegram is pretty great for that.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Could you share a bit more about how you use telegram for that purpose? I'd like to learn more. Thanks. I've never used telegram before btw....

Printer ink. I got a cheap canon printer and drilled holes in the ink cartridges so I can refill them using generic ink for 1/1000th the cost of what the printer companies charge.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Could you link how? That’s so cool

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Sure thing, this outlines how to modify the ink carts: https://www.wikihow.com/Refill-Canon-Cartridges

And you can buy bulk printer ink for around $10 for all 3 colors+black on sites like amazon or ebay.

Thanks! That's an awesome deal

Boardgames.

I am still to actually print them. But I have the files.

RPG books. These I actually have them printed.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Interesting. How much do you spend to print a typical core rulebook of say, the coastal magician type?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 months ago

B&w around 2-3 cents/page, depends on the amount of ink coverage.

Then binding is free where I do it, and shipping cost. Maybe 5-10€ depending number of pages. I did like a bunch of books at once to reduce shipping.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

That’s really cool actually

Boardgames I found a discord room.ñ, it's about the "boardgame engine videogame" but they post assets of real boardgames.

RPGs, there's a Telegram group with a name like this mineral.

Foliate on linux is a great ebook reader

Comics (though it probably falls into 'basic media'), well over 1TB at this point either way.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

I don't think I'd like to admit to anything. But during my research, I found large compilations of leaked passwords, sheet music for not so popular music instruments, vintage software and abandonware...

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Can you explain pirating of unraid licenses? I have already paid for one but didn't know this was possible

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

There’s a crack of it running around that tricks it into thinking you have a license. Of course idk if they also changed something nefarious.

I ran it for a while before I decided it wasn’t worth the risk and also run more Linux now

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I wish pirating subs was easier! That would be my second most if true

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago

Yeah it’s hard to find them for Asian stuff particularly
