Coming to terms with no longer having privacy and control over my technology

I miss the days of VHS and DVD shelfs in homes, for example. If you bought the tapes and had them in your home, no corporate entity could alter those tapes without your consent, monitor how many times you watch them, sell your data to whomever they please without your knowledge, roll out new mandatory conditions to a ‘user...

adonkeystomple,

This same sentiment is what’s driven me to pirating all the movies and tv shows I own. I want total control over the things I’ve bought and paid for with my money. I also think this is crucial for the preservation of media.

adonkeystomple,

I’ve been playing a lot of The Finals and been really enjoying it.

adonkeystomple,

I’m glad people are pushing back against this. All the unnecessary account creating has gotten out of hand.

Downloading/torrenting kids cartoons

Hey all. noob-ish pirate here. Skipping long winded post. I’m struggling to find sources to download/torrent kids cartoons. Some are easy, but I’m looking for paw patrol and it’s scarce on 1337. The more modern stuff and the super popular stuff are a little easier though. Not really any information on the Wiki about this...

adonkeystomple,

I like using Jackett as a search engine across a ton of sites. I can usually always find what I’m looking for.

adonkeystomple,

Can’t wait till all the genealogy companies like 23 & me start selling our genetic information to insurance companies.

Alternative To Emby Shared Server for Movies/TV?

Wanted to ask if there was another premium (or free) surefire way to get movies and TV shows in high quality without much hassle? I had an emby shared server that pretty much had anything I wanted but it looks like it shut down completely. I also didn’t notice that the reddits for plex/emby shares had been banned for a while...

adonkeystomple,

I really enjoy having Plex as my media server. It’s about the same amount of hassle as Emby, and there’s also Jellyfin which I haven’t dabbled into yet.

adonkeystomple,

How does Kodi compare to Plex? Are there any features it has similar or different?

adonkeystomple,

I believe that information and knowledge should be free anyways (at least in a perfect world), because that leads to the betterment of society. Also if you are able to use the knowledge you learn from the things you pirate I think you’ll be able to come back and support those things that got you to where you are.

adonkeystomple,

I’ll always have a soft spot for Lego Star Wars The Complete Saga, and the Lego Marvel games. So many hours were spent playing with my brothers.

adonkeystomple,

Yeah Private Trackers are typically protected from copyright notices.

adonkeystomple,

I remember reading some of those. It was a cool series.

adonkeystomple,

Proton VPN, Airvpn, and Mullvad are all reputable. Proton and Air have port forwarding if that’s a requirement for you.

adonkeystomple,

Woo. I know a lot of people don’t like Apple, but still a win if It ends up happening.

adonkeystomple,

For me I really like using

Ublock origin

1password

Snowflake

Return Youtube Dislike

And XbrowserSync

adonkeystomple,

Sometimes lego fans have some real L takes.

adonkeystomple,

Well I feel better about making the switch to Firefox now, and doing a custom user.js
