It’s what drove me to wrestling torrents, The WWE network was great, it had chapters, and the stuff was easy to find, then they sold it off to Peacock and stuff is hard to find, they have no chapters, they censored some of the old controversial stuff, it’s just a lesser experience than the old Network. I’m very interested to see how it’s integrated into Netflix, and if they move the US to Netflix when the Peacock deal is over.

Well if that argument works out for the studios, Oneida better get ready because I’ll be seeing them in court. After all, they made the spoons that I used to eat the ice cream that made me fat.

WB Discovery is still getting their cut from Westworld, Raised by Wolves, and a dozen or so others by licensing it out to The Roku Channel streaming service of all things. So those actors went from getting scraps from HBO Max to probably next to nothing from Roku. I don’t know if that’s worse than having the content completely removed or not considering Roku is like Pluto TV and airs things more like cable.

I followed this from Ublock’s Reddit page, it’s working for now.

Current anti-adblock status: Latest fixed (ID: 462a8d5d)*

Please, remember these 3 steps:

Force update all your filter lists (click uBO icon > ⚙ Dashboard button > Filter lists pane > 🕘 Purge all caches > 🔃 Update now)
Turn off all other extensions AND browser’s built-in blockers
Remove all your current custom filters AND custom filter lists that you have enabled / added manually (Adguard lists…)
It might be quicker to make a backup of your config and restore to defaults before proceeding to step 1.

Fixing anti-adblock can cause ads slipped. If you see any ads slipped, please report back the EXACT URL and your country when accessing the URL so volunteers are able to investigate.

The filter lists can be updated multiple times a day, so please always do step 1 before reporting.

• About the ID above, it’s the ID of YouTube’s script that’s used for anti-adblock, you can monitor it via this link: https://pastefy.app/G1Txv5su/raw (top to bottom is oldest to latest). It means that the current fix is matched with the script with corresponding ID.

If the latest ID (the last line) does not match the current one written above, it means YT has updated the new one and it might cause anti-adblock again. If it matches and you still get anti-adblock, kindly check the 3 steps above. Thank you.

I’ll send you to an older post, here.

It’s a hassle, but it works mostly, unless it’s textbooks or books made for the Indian market. Mobile read has info about the changes, here and here.

It basically involves installing an android emulator to windows and using old Kindle for Android apps as the workaround, but Amazon can stop that whenever they feel like it.

You don’t mention how they read these books, is it a Kindle e-ink device, a Fire Tablet, or some other way? I ask because the shitification has started, they have a new file format they deliver to devices that are capable of KFX. That’s anything made after the 1st Paperwhite e-ink Kindle. The new KFX file is not crackable with current NoDRM/DeDRM tools that can be found on GitHub.

As for FOSS, Koreader can be found on github and is installable on most Kobo devices as well as Remarkable devices if going with e-ink, and can be installed on android devices through F-Droid or manual install. Always read the install instructions to make sure you understand the install procedure on e-ink devices.

When all the big cable players started making their own streaming services, most of us knew they weren’t going to let their gravy train go. We know they want us to use the ad-tiers because Iger flat out said so because it makes them more money, and I’m still expecting contracts to be their next big idea, sign up for 2 years, get 1-year half-price. Meet new cable, same as the old cable. It’s following a similar playbook too with no ads to some ads and ever-increasing prices.

Disney’s Bob Iger openly said that he would prefer more people use the ad tier because it was more profitable.

Kindle 7th Gen is capable of the KFX format, it’s likely to have received an update recently because the KFX format has a new and so far unbreakable DRM. The NoDRM team appears to want nothing to do with it. Kindle Unlimited books are generally served in the latest formats because they monitor how much of the book you read and pay the author per page.

If the books are already downloaded and are in AZW, PRC, or Mobi format it’s likely, but not guaranteed, possible with NoDRM/DeDRM_tools plugin on GitHub.

Libby (Overdrive) was sold to the Private Equity company that debt loaded and then bankrupted Toys 'R Us while giving their execs big money. Simon & Schuster books are also being sold to the same group. Since they took over Overdrive they’ve removed the easy ability to recommend books to your local library that you would like to see them buy for you, it’ll only get worse from here sadly.

That said, I too am using this function quite a bit as well.

I’d love to take a look.

I use FFmpeg Batch Audio Video converter, it’s just a GUI FFmpeg. I use it to convert FLAC to MP3 when I was going on a trip and only had a CD Player and I use it to convert 7.1 Audio down to AC3 5.1 to fit my sound system. It has a MP3 preset but I had to add one for the 5.1 conversion.

I recommend using QBittorrent and their built-in search engine that searches about a dozen sites. Just remember to make sure nothing you’ve downloaded is actually an executable, some shady peeps still do things like insertmarvelmovie.mkv.exe, and people fall for it.

Sadly even with private sites a lot of things are taken from a public source and you occasionally run into this problem. Like some people up their ratios on these sites by using their VPN to get the public torrent and then seeding it back to the private one.

I agree, there is nothing in the megathread they linked to, or I’m blind. But if you follow it through to the FMHY megathread there is some iptv stuff, but not providers or anything like what I believe you to be looking for.

Most good providers are very very private and most of their users are just as private. I have no leads but look forward to seeing if you turn anything up.

I don’t know if it still works, but I have a copy.

Put this in a base64 decoder and you’ll get the link to Mega with the apk and instruction files I downloaded a while back when Amazon changed to the unbreakable DRM.

I have been renaming files with filebot and then scraping the nfos, images, and posters with MediaElch for years and never had a problem.

I miss mostly anonymous people cracking games without running around screaming from the rafters about gremlins in their modems stealing their breakfast bars. I can’t believe most if not all Denuvo releases are now only cracked by this person.

While I agree, Their captchas and countdown sites to get to the files/torrents are really annoying though.

I waffle on whether I should use my VPN or not with it.

Support your favourite artists directly. That wasn’t an option in the Napster days.

I like to have the older versions of songs before they “Remaster” and change them and if they stop selling everything but the remasters, it’s time to fire it up.

@CraigeryTheKid So some of the things they’ve “allegedly” done are… thanks to the Reddit exodus a lot of the posts have been deleted but the accusations were… they created ads that ran before their games encouraging you to return and get more games, they created their own DRM that would block you from launching if you deleted their link files back to their site from your install folder, they had malware on their website through javascript that would inject adware, at least on one occasion a game installed something called Guard.exe malware. There is also the fact that they once had and then lost their trusted status on 1337x, probably for the malware. There are some to this day that argue the uploads on 1337x are safe because they moderate the uploads, but I’d be wary of trusting them.

Edit: I thought I hit reply to @CraigeryTheKid but apparently not. I’m confused.

I’m a big fan of physical games, I want to own them, and play them even if the internet isn’t available, and this blocks that, I don’t want it. I don’t have a gaming PC anymore because I can buy a console cheaper, but if physical discs are gone, gaming PC’s allow for piracy so I can keep the games for as long as I want because I don’t see every future Xbox having backward compatibility.

The Lord works in mysterious ways.

You could try YT-DLP, it’s able to get videos from YouTube and some other sites, and it might, although possibly won’t, work with that one. If you don’t want to use the command line you can use YT-DLP and get the YT-DLG GUI.

Here I am wishing they had chosen VBulletin or Invision, lol. I think it’s just a case of what I’m more familiar with in terms of forums though.

I get their decision, forum software is stable, has plugins and tools to help with moderation, has been around a long time and they don’t have to worry about things like LemmyNSFW or other instances they don’t want the hassle of because they control all the content that shows up in a forum space.

I’m just glad it’s not a fucking Discord thing.
