Unless they are taken down, it won’t be an issue. Given they’ve existed for a good while it’s unlikely to cause a problen. Even then, hopefully they delete your payment details after a few weeks/months.
If not, paying = assisting a criminal organisation could be a crime depending on your jurisdiction. But most of the time customers aren’t prosecuted, but that can change at any point in time.
:::Torrent sites also have the issue of being centralised by having a domain and servers at some place. Imo the reason torrent sites are targeted less is that they are more inconvenient and thus less of a focus for anti-piracy groups. They generally focus on the most prominent way to infringe on their copyright.
Given the increase in piracy services taken down lately, I wouldn’t be surprised if a torrent site was hit at some point too. Unfortunately ;)
Football is not usually distributed over torrents and thus seedboxes. These IPTV providers restream the live feed with a few seconds delay - just like their legal counterparts. They usually cost around 5-20€/£ per month, depending on the subscription duration (and number if simultaneous streams).
Noch dazu sind die einzigen, die sich garantiert eh nicht an die Vorgaben halten, Kriminelle, die dann trotzdem ihre Nachrichten verschlüsseln.
Gut auf den Punkt gebracht.
Mit Sicherheit wird auch eine Ausnahme für Politiker, bzw. Parlamentarier und Regierungsmitglieder, eingefügt. Für Journalisten wsl. nicht.
Leider wollen die meisten Menschen nicht sehen, dass sich solche Gesetze praktisch nicht von den Überwachungsgesetzen autokratischer Staaten unterscheiden. Mein (nicht so) neues Lieblingszitat ist „So geht die Freiheit zugrunde - mit donnerndem Applaus.“ — Padmé über Palpatine. Denn viele Bürger glauben, Fälschlicherweise, dass solche Gesetze sie selbst doch nie betreffen würden. Es ist das gleiche mit Wählern von Rechten Parteien, die “gute Ausländer” kennen, und glauben, dass Ausländerfeindliche Maßnahmen, nur die “bösen Ausländer” betreffen.
That was the case, but now that they no longer support port forwarding thinking about alternatives is a good idea. For me, a VPN without port forwarding is not an option (since I use private trackers).
Sadly they’ve gone up in price over the last 6 months.
Mindfactory had 16TB for 160€ (10€/TB), but now they want 240€ for 18TB (13.3€/TB).
On eBay there’s sellers like HMCW, which are now also more expensive. But returns/warranty are questionable to say the least.
Edit: I wanna punch myself because I didn’t get one at the time.
Youtube kann den Namen eines Videos automatisch übersetzen, wenn der Uploader das will
Soweit ich weiß, ist die automatische Übersetzung standardmäßig aktiviert. Die wenigsten Uploader werden das deaktivieren.
Ich persönlich finde das automatische Übersetzen ein Unding. Ich beherrsche EN & DE, muss mich aber für eine Sprache entscheiden. Entweder sind deutsche Titel schlecht, weil sie übersetzt sind, oder alle englischen Titel sind schlecht, weil sie übersetzt sind. Je nach Thema sind Titel komplett falsch - da wäre mir kein Titel lieber.
Yeah. There already are arbitrators by law: public courts.
Yes, even IPv4 was intended to give each device in the world their own IP, but the address space is too limited. IPv6 fixes that.
Actually, each device usually has multiple IPv6s, and only some/one are globally routable, i.e. it works outside of your home network. Finding out which one is global is a bit annoying sometimes, but it can be done.
Usually routers still block incoming traffic for security reasons, so you still have to open ports in your router.
If you go with IPv6, all your devices/servers have their own IP. These IPs are valid in your LAN as well a externally.
But it’s still important to use a reverse proxy (e.g. for TLS).
Den Artikel speichere ich mal falls ich mal einen Beweis dafür brauche, dass Überwachungswerkzeuge nicht nur dem ursprünglichen offiziellen Einführungsgrund entsprechend, eingesetzt werden.
Many places don’t enforce those laws for simply torrenting.
Some countries (US) ask the ISP to send warning letters and might disable the internet. In other countries law firms get personal details from the ISP and send a costly letter of a thousand Euro for a single infraction like in Germany.
I would ideally like to convert the library to h.265 or even AV1 if I can make it work.
Unless you’ve downloaded remuxes (which I doubt), I’d seriously recommend redownloading instead of converting your existing files.
h.265 and especially AV1 take a long time to encode by CPU, and hardware encoding won’t give you any space savings, unless you’re okay with losing much details.
Redownloading is most definitely faster, will result in more space savings for the quality you’ll get. PS: Unless you’ve got data volume limits, but even then I’d recommend slowly upgrading over time. It’s quite simple with TRaSH guides and giving h.265 a higher score.
See my comment here. An open port is only required for TCP connections. uTP/UDP allows the tracker to open up a port temporarily in many cases. This won’t work for those stuck with ancient torrent clients.
That’s partially correct, partially wrong. An open port is required to allow for incoming connections for torrenting over TCP.
For TCP:
If a seed does not have an open port, a potential leech with an open port shares their IP & port with the tracker. The seed regularly asks the tracker for potential leeches. If the tracker provides a leech with an open port, then the seed connects to the leeches open port. This connection then allows the leech to download from the seed.
If neither of seed and leech has an open port, no connection can be established and thus no torrenting is possible.
For uTP/UDP:
If both peers (seed & leech) have no open ports, the tracker can use UDP hole punching to temporarily open up a port for the peers. The second peer can then connect directly to the first peer’s port which has been opened up by the tracker.
This only works for public torrents and with PEX enabled. For private trackers an open port is required.
It worked because the other people you connected to opened up a port themselves.
Edit: In some cases the tracker can open up a port for the peers. See https://discuss.tchncs.de/comment/18977148
Yes. If you’ve got enough buffer anyway there’s not much reason to set up Cross-Seed.
Depending on the tracker this can work better or worse. E.g. I was on a tracker with minimal free leech content, so Cross-Seed helped me a lot.
It takes a bit of time and careful reading until it’s set up.
For matching existing data you need to set up dataDirs and partial matchMode. Ideally your local files are organized (e.g. TRaSH guide) to improve cross-seeds ability to find matches. If you need help there’s a Discord linked on their website.
1337x.to works well too. If you use a website translator, like Firefox Translate, rutracker is great too.
Otherwise, private torrent sites (e.g. TorrentLeech) are the best addition to Usenet.
Keeping ratio is pretty easy if you set up Cross-Seed. It finds torrents matching your local files (e.g. Usenet downloads) and adds them to your torrent client without using additional space or downloading them again.

In the devices list of lvfs/fwupd there’s a bunch of controllers supported. But it seems like it’s mostly their retro controllers. XBox-style controllers like their Ultimate C etc. are not supported.
