MomoTimeToDie,

Updates can both add real value, but not be worth piecemealing out as separate purchases.

Me vs my ISP

So I was looking into getting port forwarding set up and I realized just how closed-off the internet has gotten since the early days. It’s concerning. It used to be you would buy your own router and connect it to the internet, and that router would control port-forwarding and what-have-you....

MomoTimeToDie,

Sounds like a (somehow even more) shit isp. I just tapped the “bring my own” when I signed up, and bought myself a modem/router combo at best buy.

MomoTimeToDie,

You can’t get your own router?

When a Torrent disappears from 1337x, how do you find out what happened?

Yesterday there was a controversial movie torrent that was getting 1000s of downloads and was on the “popular this week” page, and today it’s just gone. I went to the uploader’s account page and it’s not there either. Just like it never existed....

MomoTimeToDie,

Nobody who genuinely talks about “hate speech” has an opinion worth listening to

MomoTimeToDie,

Lmao you seem to hold far more hatred than I

MomoTimeToDie,

They didn’t even fucking try the bare minimum of just refusing to comply. Besides, it’s such a comically baseless case by some fucking worthless gook company. It doesn’t cost tens of thousands of dollars to tell them to shove it up their ass, at the bare minimum.

MomoTimeToDie,

So entirely irrelevant in the US?

MomoTimeToDie,

I mean the eff can only do so much to defend people who didn’t even fucking bother in the slightest to defend themselves and just rolled over at every turn

MomoTimeToDie,

While many will be understandably angry or disappointed in our lack of backbone or perceived selfishness

At least they’re aware of their deficiencies

MomoTimeToDie,

Download a user-friendly torrent client (e.g., qBittorrent, uTorrent).

Isn’t uTorrent, like, malware or something?

MomoTimeToDie,

Theoretically (assuming it’s an android) you could use an old phone. I know both mullvad and Proton have vpn clients for Android, and libretorrent works well. And you could plug in an external USB drive for more storage. And then use something like a Chromecast to send things to your tv

MomoTimeToDie,

without having to connect a cable from my computer to my TV

Honestly, just buy a Chromecast or something. Way less effort

MomoTimeToDie,

Let’s be real, that’s the last place anyone would look for a torrent client

MomoTimeToDie,

The devs just completely folded to some bogus copyright claims against their extentions

MomoTimeToDie,

If it works on your end, no reason to stop using it. The reason they suggested to move elsewhere is because, at the time, there was no indication that j2k had any plans for continued development. Might’ve changed since they put that out, but that’s what they sajd

MomoTimeToDie,

Fair point, but unless you’re just interested in seeing something do poorly, leaks can absolutely fuck over somethings chances of success, often with no particular benefit.

MomoTimeToDie,

The big issue is that the console companies are generally more active in targeting people on more active consoles, and are incredibly strict if you’re caught cheating. Just being connected to psn on a hacked ps3 runs you a very real risk of getting an account ban. I can only imagine they’re far more active in banning ps4/ps5 users who are running hacked firmware. And Idk if there’s been any major hacks on the Xbox side of things.

As a side note, if you want to see a cluster fuck of every hack and cheat imaginable, hit up the original splatoon servers on Wii u. It’s honestly completely insane how much people have broken it

MomoTimeToDie,

From my experience, it largely depends on how online multi-player is handled. Things that require game-specific accounts or have drm tied to an account like steam, it won’t work. But a lot of stuff on console works fine since it’s presumed that the anti-piracy has already happened. I play plenty of pirated games online on 3ds, Wii u, and psvita

MomoTimeToDie,

The way these strikes happen is that the right holder (or usually just some company on their behalf) joins public torrents for their content, and grabs every ip that connects. It’s entirely possible that in the few seconds you had qbit open without a vpn, enough of the program had initialized that the basics of joining the swarm started, and your ip got seen.

MomoTimeToDie,

Of course not, he would have announced it already if he was

MomoTimeToDie,

Vimms lair is a good choice, though i don’t think they’re in .chd by default, rather just .iso, or a compressed .iso format. It’s highly consistent in naming conventions, and has a pretty damn near full collection. Main downside is limited downloading speed, and no concurrent downloads, but if you’re just looking to download games you’re interested in and not every ps1 game, it should be fine

MomoTimeToDie,

Have you tried Google?

MomoTimeToDie,

Yes*

It largely depends on what the online functionality does. Pirating software that heavily relies on external servers as opposed to your machine isn’t really feasible. But if it’s just a phone home to verify, someone has probably cracked it

MomoTimeToDie,

It depends on the game, and what I feel like doing. My main rule of thumb is to not use pokemon I’ve used before, or use frequently.

Regarding overleveling, I always just compulsively switch train my weakest pokemon, even or my first runs. It’s really just something you have to get used to. It’s sorta the same mindset as item hoarding. It doesn’t matter if there’s an obvious way to win now, it matters that there might be a need for my team to have other strong members later. Therefore, they always need to be trained

MomoTimeToDie,

For the purposes of practicality, you’re probably safe so long as you don’t have to log in using credentials tied to you. They simply aren’t going to care enough, and will likely just put up some network restrictions if they get a letter from the isp.

But for the purposes of security, yes, you can absolutely be identified. For one, if your device Mac address isn’t spoofed, they can just see what device you used, and skim security footage for someone using it in the right time frame. Even without that, they can just see who was there for the amount of time you were connected, and find you that way. Especially if you do anything that would identify yourself while there (like use a library card).
