jon, in Fuck Subscriptions. Here is how to setup Streamio like a pro
@jon@lemmy.tf avatar

Your title should be “fuck subscriptions, except subscriptions from this site pulled from 1998” since everything in your guide relies on a paid debrid sub.

Gooey0210,

Pro Pirate tip: go and buy pirated DVDs

Yoz,

Sorry, you can use RD subscription or you can use it for free with torrentio add-in.

WarmApplePieShrek,

Please do not use Stremio without RD - you’d be a freeloader on the torrent ecosystem. Stremio doesn’t seed back.

illyria817,

If you are using torrentio, you are downloading via torrent on your home network. Depending on what country you are in, it’s not safe to do that without a VPN. If you are trying to watch on a TV via Fire stick or Chromecast, setting up a VPN is not easy.

janguv,

If you are using torrentio, you are downloading via torrent on your home network.

Because you can configure Torrentio to work with an RD API, this is not true. That’s the point of the setup – the end user is neither seeding nor leeching any torrent files. They are using the add-on to access a cache elsewhere, providing them with a simple and encrypted DDL.

illyria817,

Dude…I’m literally responding to someone who says “why use RD when torrentio is free”. But by all means, mansplain RealDebrid to everyone in this thread that knows exactly what we are talking about.

spaceaape,

Yeah i can’t believe he put “You Do not need a vpn” in all caps 😂😂

janguv,

Many people think you do not, for the reason I just mentioned in a reply to the comment you’re replying to. There are other reasons you might think it wise, but it is not true that with this setup you are torrenting on your home network.

Faceman2K23, in Got high, wanted to watch mythbusters, and see this. Great experience.
@Faceman2K23@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

I just have a “channel” on my plex (I use DizqueTV to setup the fake TV channel) that has a random continuous playlist of Mythbusters, Top gear + all the spinoffs and classic specials, Junkyard wars, classic robot wars, etc etc…

chepox,

DizqueTV you say… Onto the high seas to look for more info and understand what this is and why I need it…

CmdrShepard,

Another one is ErsatzTV. They allow you to create your own ‘TV channels’ based on stuff in your library.

null,

I didn’t know I wanted this, but now I need to have it.

CmdrShepard, (edited )

Just a fair warning, if you already use the LiveTV option with a TV Tuner or IPTV, I have yet to find a way to get them blended together with the fake TV channels in the guide on Plex even with xTeve outputting a valid m3u/xmltv. It’s either one or the other unfortunately.

Emby did work correctly so I’m assuming it’ll also work correctly in Jellyfin too.

Faceman2K23,
@Faceman2K23@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

its just an app you run next to plex that lets you make fake TV channels with your own content. good for those “I don’t know what to watch” times where you just want to click a button and shut your brain off.

Apollo2323, (edited )

Holy shit this a game changer! My man thank you!!

RooPappy,

I have been looking for high-quality video of Junkyard Wars for years. I found one torrent once of like 320x240 rips of a singe season. It's miserable.

pulverizedcoccyx,

There’s a 65 GB pack on archive.org

Faceman2K23,
@Faceman2K23@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

There is a complete pack of Junkyard wars / scrapheap challenge, but most of it is pretty poor quality, even the later seasons.

Faceman2K23,
@Faceman2K23@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

yea, sadly a lot of shows from those times were never released on decent formats, so all we have are poor broadcast rips, some of them from VHS, and occasionally a DVD encode made in 2003.

TWeaK, in So I finally did the math on data brokerage and worked out how much we're all being robbed

Also, I’m really happy I finally found a genuine excuse to show off Lemmy’s citation feature lol

AreturningPirate,
@AreturningPirate@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

Although it doesn’t work for me. On browser, when I click the citation, it just opens the post again.

TWeaK,

Yes I’ve noticed that as well, the links have always been borked. Doubt it’ll get fixed any time soon, but at least the ground work is there and it makes it ever so slightly easier to make the formatting.

fmstrat,

Oh interesting, I didn’t know there was a citation feature but can’t see them in Thunder. PR time perhaps.

TWeaK,

Yeah it’s really not very well known, also the links don’t actually work properly.

Its still blocked including newgrounds.com. I have to use VPN to play Geometry Dash because sound of custom level are hosted on newground.

Here a List of site which I can’t access without VPN

TheKrevFox, in Uhhh oh

In 2023, ‘cuck’ is seemingly the greatest insult you can apply to a person.

Followed only by ‘poopyhead’.

revv,

Outside of a kink context, its use is a pretty great indicator that the person using it is a hateful moron who thinks they’re"winning" if someone is “triggered.” Basically the online equivalent of a pair of truck nuts.

In that respect, I’m grateful for its prevalence as it saves me a lot of time/energy that would otherwise be spent dealing with assholes.

neshura, in Fitgirl repack? What exactly is it?
@neshura@bookwormstory.social avatar

is it just an installer or something?

It’s a compressed installer to be precise. Usually crackers only put up the patch files, which is pretty useless for anybody wanting to pirate a game. Fitgirl repackages (and compresses) the game files together with the crack patches into a cracked installer, hence “repack”.

And if you imported the game into steam for example can you be “banned” or VAT (idr the term)

Nope, though it will look funny in your Steam Status there is nothing to worry about. After all for all Valve knows you could be using a renamed version of a legitimate App, for non-steam entries in steam only the .exe name is known, nothing else.

Just a word of warning: be careful when torrenting the games, while Valve will not ban you for using them game publishers are known to sue when catching you torrenting them (usually the upload part in the torrent is what gets people but the downloading is not 100% safe either). You should definitely look into how to safely torrent stuff before committing to it in order to avoid any nasty cease-and-desist letters flying in your door.

yuunikki,

Mr_Blott, in I hope someday we'll find a way to pirated a car

The only problem with services as a subscription is THE FUCKING IDIOTS THAT PAY FOR THEM

If nobody fell for shit like that, manufacturers would drop it like boiling diarrhea

devilish666,

Finally someone who gets it
Glad to see you here my fellow comrades

cerulean_blue,

This is true.

Go and buy a car from a manufacturer who doesn’t insist on subscriptions… whilst you still can!

antipiratgruppen,

Something like the XBUS seems like a good choice. They seem to focus on the important and practical stuff, and I can’t find any information about any sort of related subscription.

    It would be reasonable if what that app did was anything that actually needed internet servers to work. Why not just pair up the phone with the car, ad-hoc like you could with a PSP, or any sort of peer-to-peer between car-phone, and call it a day? Oh, right, because then you can’t create a service you can charge monthly for.

    That people are willing to pay for effectively a remote temperature control and shutdown timer, that does not need to be an internet service to work properly, can and should be dunked on.

  • locuester,

    It’s for office workers or inner city dwellers in cold regions. They can start their car which is in the parking garage blocks away. It makes sense and it costs money to run.

    Theres nothing wrong at all with this. At all. Image is FUD

    jjlinux,

    Because you actually believe you didn’t already paid for about 5 years of the service when you paid for the car? Human stupidity and laziness is the accurate reason for manufacturers doing this.

    kameecoding, (edited )

    deleted_by_author

  • jjlinux,

    When you buy the car, you also pay for that integrated, albeit disable, service. To enable it you have to pay a subscription. I agree with the OP. This should never be the case. Now, the culprit is not the car manufacturer, but the people that pay for it. If nobody, or aven few people, paid for this, they wouldn’t have a business for that and they would likely stop. Bottom line is, you don’t like it? Give your money to another brand.

    neshura, in I feel like the Steam Deck is the best proof of Gabe Newell's quote that "piracy is a service issue."
    @neshura@bookwormstory.social avatar

    I actually bought some games on Steam I already owned on other launchers because while I could set them up via Lutris or the like just hitting “Play” is so much easier it’s unreal. Valve is doing so much to make Linux game as comfortable as possible I don’t even remotely consider buying from anyone else because there it’s a pain in the ass just to get the game running once, never mind keeping it running through updates

    ChrisFhey,
    @ChrisFhey@kbin.social avatar

    Not to mention keeping game saves in sync. I’m experimenting with syncthing for my pirated games, but I have to admit that just getting the Steam version sounds much more sensible now that I’ve my Steam deck.

    spaceaape, (edited )

    I use syncthing for my emulator savestates between retroarch on my deck and retroarch on my android tv(no steam client or steam cloud sync for android or android tv), no matter where i decide to play I always have my most recent save. It also has versioning so i can go back to older versions of saves. I use a virtual private server(or seedbox) running syncthing as the in-between cloud host.

    I wrote up a guide on how to do it in the Steam Retroarch community guides. It shouldn’t be much different for PC game saves, just choosing a different folder, specifically the one with your chosen files.

    Norgur, in OpenSubtitles.org is shutting down it's previous API. Now only authenticated access allowed.

    See, I get when YouTube or some such are asking for some kind of payment, since transcoding and delivering all those large video files is expensive as fuck. Yet, Open subtitles delivers text. Fucking. Text. The rest is done for them for free by the users. No, folks. You ain't getting any money.

    M500, in I'm happy he did actually say it
