No one should go to that website ever. But it’s true, we should have a dedicated piracy memes community, or do we already have one? But until lemmy is this small it wouldn’t help if the communities were even more fine grained.

I have these bookmarked:

• https://wearechecking.live/
• https://www.vipbox.lc/

There was also daddylivehd, but my link does not work anymore

13 years old forum post about this, with a reply from Nir Arbel, the founder:

Yeah, I can’t go into too much detail, but we have to filter certain things.

Unfortunately I can’t listen to podcasts. If I only listen to something without visual stimulation my mind start to think about unrelated things, and I just can’t follow what they speak about, I loose track after a while.

Before podcasts there were radio talk shows, I hated them similarly, and I tuned to another station where they were playing music.

There is a very good documentary about Aaron’s life: The Internet’s Own Boy

Thank you for adding NSFW flair. Noone should see the word “r*ddit”

You can have multiple accounts, maybe on different instances, and you can upvote with all of them. A lot of clients allow easy account switching, e.g. in voyager if you tap on your username on the bottom bar twice, it opens an account selector dialog.

My friend did this once. Asked the seller to declare a smaller price on the package, than customs office asked for an invoice from my friend, and he just photoshopped the lower price to the invoice and submitted. It was from China to Europe, and not second hand, just a good guy seller from aliexpress. I guess if you do this frequently you can get into big trouble. But they don’t have the manpower to doublecheck everything

There are local trackers everywhere, try to get an invite to them. I’m Hungarian, we have several invite only trackers for dubbed movies and other local content. Even they are invite only, it’s really easy to get an invite as a lot of folks have account on them.

For that kind of content I would look for your local communities on reddit, fb or whatever social media is common in your country. Try to find out what others use, and try to get an invite there.

Fmhy has a list of non-english sources: https://fmhy.net/non-english

What is your use case, I 'm just simply interested.

My workflow for finding things, I know where I want to search it for, e.g. a torrent site or a specific forum or network, and search there. If I would search for something on a general search engine like those, even if it would give good results, I would have to weed out the fake and scam results. While if I search on an already reputable site or source I don’t have to deal with that.

As a native hungarian, I wouldn’t mind that. Árvíztűró tükörfúrógép.

I remember I watched one of the sw prequels with hardcoded Korean subs. My classmate burnt it to a dvd for me, and it was special because our early sony dvd player couldn’t play any non original disks but somehow he could work it around.

They still support them, they are just not on the landing page. You could select them during registration, maybe not all of them but I remember the African one from last time I created an airmail.cc address.

What was fmovies? Some streaming sites?

These things are come and go, but old ways of the warez are still working. I remember one of my classmates taught me how to torrent more than 20 years ago. I had to change trackers and cliens during the years, but I never had to think about things like this because the workflow will always be the same.

Soulseek is still up there since 2003.

What is an EA?

version: property isobsolete, and you can safely remove those lines: https://github.com/compose-spec/compose-spec/blob/main/spec.md#version-top-level-element-obsolete

So it means something like “Please do not use this for paid warez, I don’t want DMCA this repo”. Makes more sense.

But sooner or later someone will do it, I don’t see that single sentence will stop a get quick buck script kiddie from an undisclosed eastern european country…

How is it MIT licensed and “NON-COMMERCIAL USE ONLY”. You can’t have both.

This is misleading, because if you search for MIT licensed software this will show up, but it’s not that. Limiting commercial use means it’s not even considered open source but just source available

download movie -> watch movie -> seed it for a while, at least some days -> delete

I have like 10 movies saved for archival, because it was hard to find them

Gratis and libre used usually to differenciate the terms: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gratis_versus_libre

Both of them are latin words so I expect they show up in similar forms in most European languages. Free is a Germanic origin word.

In Hungarian we use the word Gratis as well with Hungarian spelling: “Grátisz” even though Hungarian is not an Indo-European language. Libre is not used in common speech here.

I don’t get what @Freeman@lemmings.world wanted to say

Ich kann nicht sprachen deutch sehr gut. wdym, what is the original german meaning?
