navigatron, in Advanced pirates, whats a tip others might not know?

Wireguard creates a new network interface that accepts, encrypts, wraps, and ships packets out your typical network interface.

If you were to create a kernel network namespace and move the wireguard interface into that new namespace, the connection to your existing nic is not broken.

You can then use some custom systemd units to start your *rr software of choice in said namespace, rendering you immune to dns leaks, and any other such vpn failures.

If you throw bridge interfaces into the mix, you can create gateways to tor / i2p / ipfs / Yggdrasil / etc as desired. You’ll need a bridge anyway to get your requester software interface exposed to your reverse proxy.

Wireguard also allows multiple peers, so you could multi-nic a portable personal device, and access all your admin interfaces while traveling, with the same vpn-failure-free peace of mind.

Pulptastic,

I know some of these words

Thoxy, in What IPTV app do you use?
@Thoxy@lemmy.zip avatar

I use Tivimate on AndroidTV. I have iMplayer TV installed on my AndroidTV as well, but I don’t use it frequently. However, I do appreciate having iMplayer installed on my phone.

special mention for these 3 applications which are not too bad either:

On Windows ProgDVB is really good (but I’m not a Windows user BTW) on Linux I use iptvnator

kambusha,

For IPTVNator, which video player do you use? I tried videojs and html5 and nothing would come up.

Sproux, in Any VPNs comparable to IVPN and Mullvad by privacy, but also have port forwarding?

I switched to protonvpn recently and it seems pretty good, I was getting a lot of websites blocking me when I was using PIA and that seems to not be a problem with proton.

Personally I don’t trust Proton. I know I’m paranoid, but can’t be too sure about anything these days. To my knowledge MV and IVPN are the only ones with a nice privacy reputation. Shame they are cutting port forwarding

AnEilifintChorcra,

Proton only started logging his IP after they were legally forced to do so, just like any other law abiding company would have to do.

Proton offers an onion site of Protonmail which the activist should have been using since he allegedly committed

theft and property damage, crimes - the latter two - that enable surveillance

this is a case of user error and bad opsec, not a company bending over backwards to share their users information. If you’re going to do things that are likely going to get you arrested, no matter how noble the cause, make sure you have excellent OpSec

Flatworm7591, in Getting around magazine paywalls
@Flatworm7591@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

Have you tried the Bypass Paywalls Clean extension? There’s a version for Chrome and Firefox. It works for many sites but not everything. I think Firefox removed it from their add-ons repository but you can install it manually. There’s a good article on that decision here and also a method to use uBlock Origin for this purpose.

DS_Griffin,

Wait. I have “Bypass Paywalls”. Are they the same thing or is one better than the other?

RandomLegend, in AI section for megathread

uncensored cracked or otherwise pirated AI stuff

What do you mean exactly? Like give me some examples 😀

FREE_TO_SAIL,

ok so ill start by saying im so tired of the limits and boundaries and restrictions that have been placed on AI i could literally vomit so with that what i really mean is this i am looking for a platform kind of like poe.com where i can like train a bot to do what ever i want but without any form of policy shit that says hey this violates that bla bla bla it cant be a locally run model because my hardware is well crap lol so if possible on a server somewhere i am willing to even pay for it as long as it is completely uncensored and not break the bank level but more so to where i never again have to here “as an AI language model bla bla bla” i would prefer not to have to pay for it which is kinda why i was asking here but at this point i just dont care anymore as long as it will run similar to chatgpt in the sense that it can actually carry on a convo because i have found a few that were uncensored however they were so stupid that it was like going back to talking to siri or worse completely incapable of processing information at all you say hello and it says “42 is a good number yes” if you get what i mean if you need more info im more than happy to give it just let me know and i really appreciate the help

GPU renting sites don’t censor you at all.

Runpod.io for example, you can just rent a GPU per the hour, train your own model and you’re good to go. I mean as long as you don’t upload criminal stuff (CSAM, etc.) you can train what you want on there.

Otherwise, training your own models will become easier by the day for home hardware. Look at fast it went for Image AI to be able to train your own model. You can do that with 12GB or even 8GB afaik now. I don’t think it’ll take very long until you can just let your 8GB card chuck away at some training data.

FREE_TO_SAIL,

yea its a great service however unfortunately kinda strapped for cash to many bills at the moment so that would be why im on here asking but i really appreciate the advice thanks

RandomLegend,
@RandomLegend@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

Well you wont find any “pirated” GPU host… Its nothing that can really be pirated because we’re talking about hardware here.

Afaik google colab has enough VRAM to train and they don’t really at the source material you put in there (again, as long as you don’t trigger any CSAM filters or so)

FREE_TO_SAIL,

CSAM filter??? whats that. an yea i figured that might be the case it being like digital hardware i guess i was more thinking like a pirated AI itself ya know because i have to admit i have never come across something that was software that couldnt be pirated until the whole AI thing then its like no one has the ability to say take ChatGPT and track it back to the source code and then duplicate it so it dont need openai anymore thats more what i was hoping to find or at least something of the same general nature like a truly reverse engineered gpt4 model that could be trained on your data and not controlled then use google colab or hell if they have something that monitors it then just get a private cloud and do it that way theirs a whole bunch out of Switzerland that just dont give a fuck what you put on the cloud server am i making sense or just talking gibberish because at this point i beginning to wonder lol

RandomLegend,
@RandomLegend@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

Yeah…you’re basically talking gibberish, sorry to tell you.

GPT4 doesn’t have to be reverse engineered, their software is nothing special and the open source programs available are more than competitive.

The part that can’t be pirated is the model itself. The training data that was formed into the model. That you can’t pirate or reverse engineer. You could steal it by hacking them and leaking it. But it would be incredible inefficient to run because OpenAI basically didn’t give a single fuck about efficiency and you need really fcking high end GPUs to run that.

So, to conclude.

ChatGPT “software” is absolutely boring and the alternatives out there are both plenty and in many cases superior. The interesting part is the model, which can’t be reverseengineered and even if, can’t be run on most hardware.

What you want is unrealistic and to be honest, completely unnecessary. We don’t want or need ChatGPT’s model. The open source models that already exist are in many cases better than GPT4; But they’re focused on specific tasks. Yes - there is no single model that can compete with GPT4 as is. But you can get yourself models for focused tasks and those “combined” definetly CAN compete with GPT4.

And the open source softwares like oobabooga are so much more capable than GPT4’s stupid minimalistic webui…

PS: Also, CSAM = Child Sexual Abuse Material

FREE_TO_SAIL,

oh no need to apologize at all im cool im just glad to have it explained to be honest i have looked an looked and havent been able to get a straight answer hence why i got on here and was just like ok damnit i want to figure out if this is possible or if im just crazy so yea i get what your saying maybe what i was thinkin is kinda a stretch i just didnt know if i was possible is i really appreciate you explaining to me and after reading that yea honestly your right i have found some way better models here and there an some of roleplay platforms are really cool i guess i was just more curious than anything else lol i guess when you got a bunch of morons running a company that they stole then sold to the worst company to ever exist namely microsoft you really cant expect much beyond build a better one lol i will say i would very much like to see someone get anthropics claude model becuase i swear that bot could roleplay better than any bot i have seen if it just wasnt so damn ethical crazy lol but honestly at this point i have given up hope that it will happen or that it is really worth it lol but either way thanks you have been a huge help in assisting me in figuring out my gibberish lol especially since you really didnt have to so what ima probable do is just get me a digital gpu and build my own bot that suites what i need i did have one more question off the subject of chatgpt i heard something about someone was planning on building a operating system that was fully integrated with an AI LLM to where the model would be able to like directly control the entire OS now that would be cool i mean come on hello jarvis but i cant find any info on it now its just like the game engine someone was supposed to be making and then i didnt hear anything else is was like one trailer on both accounts and then like they dropped off the planet has there been any news or talk about it just wondering

First of all…bro…please use punctuation. This completely period-less wall of text was a nightmare to read lmao.

An OS controlled completely by AI sounds nightmarish to be honest. The amount of wrong outputs your typical LLMs generate would steer your PC into oblivion i tell you.

ASSISTED by AI is another thing though. There are already some tools out there that let you turn on some AI overlay that can help you figure out what you want to do. Even for the terminal.

But wouldn’t want that on my PC tbh. First of all, it would make the electricity bill for using your PC pure hell… imagine you have to fire up your GPU to 100% usage everytime you want to do something…

FREE_TO_SAIL,

sorry to be honest i have no idea how to use punctuation never learned the only thing i can do punctuation with is when i write code and even then well to be honest i suck at it lol i mean i can do like a period and stuff but thats about it. and as far as the AI it was someones idea they even did like a trailer and stuff. but i mean i think the key to it would be like you said assisted by lol i was more thinking like it just has the ability to like interact with anything on the computer not like fully control it. and also just think of the possibilities. like right now as it sits i use AI as my own personal tech support and it works pretty well but if the bot could actually directly interact now that would be a whole new animal. like think idk black-arch right and you build an AI trained on it and all the programs that it has it would be a master hacking or anything really. it could literally control the code like say for instance your browser and turn your browser into the ultimate version. there is just endless possibilities. now like you said it would definitely need guidance but still the point is to be able to directly interact. ya know the one thing that AI always says it cant do. was that any better? genuine question because thats about the best i got. lol i always hated grammar as a kid super dyslexic and shit so i always reverse everything anyways lol its honestly crazy i can fully understand and break down shit in my head like advanced algorithms and shit and apply them to real world but cant seem to get grimmer shakes head face palming

collegefurtrader, in Could this become a "Caring is Sharing" sub, just like the old days

Because for years I’ve been told that “they” target the uploaders, not the downloaders for prosecution. So seeding was significantly riskier that just downloading with uploads disabled.

Anyway, now I’ve set up a paid VPN and cancelled most streaming services, and uploads are fully engaged.

DigitalPhreaker,

for years I’ve been told that “they” target the uploaders, not the downloaders for prosecution.

Yep. Once the RIAA proved that suing individual pirates for ridiculous amounts of money over one song did nothing to stop piracy, they finally changed gears: go after the people leaking the albums, the original upload groups, etc.

Governments, watchdog groups, and industry “concerns” followed suit, so eventually everyone learned that if you weren’t a part of a group, you were probably (reasonably) safe. Then they started monitoring swarms on public trackers and sending those DMCA notices en masse, but that again proved how ineffective those scare tactics were. Most people switched to private trackers to avoid that annoyance, and pirates pivoted yet again.

So seeding was significantly riskier that just downloading with uploads disabled.

Seeding wasn’t the only risk. Just being in the swarm – whether uploading or downloading – is enough to trigger a DMCA complaint. And the way BitTorrent works, you’re pretty much always seeding even if the file isn’t done downloading, so downloading and not seeding wasn’t enough.

VPNs are a great shield against those fishing complaints, but you wanna make sure to use one that has had to prove in court that they never keep logs. A lot of them say they don’t keep logs, but happily and quietly comply to subpoenas with whatever they have on customers.

theblueredditrefugee,

undefined> Most people switched to private trackers to avoid that annoyance, and pirates pivoted yet again.

So, can you find more content on private trackers, then? If I search there will I finally be able to find Sudigadu with english subtitles?

DigitalPhreaker,

So, can you find more content on private trackers, then?

Oh, yes. Between PassThePopcorn and BroadcasTheNet, I’ve never not found a movie or show I was looking for. It’s not always a guarantee, especially for more niche movies/shows, but those two have never let me down.

For everything else, I usually use more general purpose trackers like TorrentLeech or AlphaRatio.

My question is always the same, how the heck do you get an invitation for these sites?

deathmetal, in If you Post the Link to this Lemmy page you get now this on reddit.

Are people just now discovering that Reddit has run on full censorship for a long time?

BubblyMango,

I just thought it was specific mods. Usually when i make reddit comments defending Israel they get silently deleted.

Captain_Shoe, in HowTo: Download Video Content from ANY website

Any website? Including all the streaming services like Netflix, Disney+, etc?

https://cdm-project.com/

They have a lot of good tools and guides for getting setup to pull drm encrypted streams. You’ll need access to an android device that has root to be able to pull drm keys from. It took me a bit to figure out how to get it setup. They had to remove the all in one setup page so the software is outdated but I followed this (https://web.archive.org/web/20230315101847/https://cdm-project.com/cdm-tools/how-to) and just searched for the latest versions of the software they reference and got it working to download off disney+ and wowpresentsplus

taaz, in OK mateys, let's talk about direct links.

This requires some significant investment in anonymity and hosting provider (these providers are 3x as expensive, yo!).

What is meant by these? Any links, I mean, pointers?

update: ripped.guide has returned to normalcy…

https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/pictrs/image/6aecb137-055e-4431-85d8-5e0b0c9d85af.png

their domain seems to have been hijacked by a disgruntled former staff member who deliberately ruined the site. maybe you could add the site back? it was quite a useful resource.

It’s still there at rentry.co/megathread. A new pinned post will be made at a later date so everything makes sense.
