I always torrent large FOSS projects where possible. It’s faster and doesn’t tax the servers of the project.

That’s not piracy, though, so I’m not sure why it’s being talked about here…


New Flashcard for Nintendo Switch. Team Xecuter might be behind it.
I apologize if this video has already been posted here. I did a rudimentary look through the posts of the past few days and couldn't see it.

Stremio is a video player that can run videos directly from certain Web sources.

The part of interest here is it can run directly from torrent magnet links too.

It has serie and movie browsing capabilities similar to a streaming service, and the interface also looks that way too. With plugins you can see various sources to stream the movies and series from, which includes plugins from various torrent trackers.

Ongoin series you want to follow can be added to your library. Doing so will add a calendar showing you on which days new episodes will drop, and notify you when they do.


Theory requires a working model. What you got can’t even be considered a hypothesis.



What was it the rules of the internet again?

TITS or GTFO.

There’s also Girl = Guy In Real Life.


Valve is one of the few companies I would someone trust with this promise… So long as the current people in charge are still in charge.

Whoever takes over might have very different ideas.




I’m not sure if Danish libraries do E-Books. I could check after work, though. But the fun part is I already have a library card; the health insurance card all Danish citizens get counts kinda like an everything card, including lending books. ^^

Anyway, I got some authors on my radar already. Like for instance I have only read a fraction of what Terry Prachet wrote, and I never finished the Hitchhiker’s trilogy.


Right… Yeah, I would like to get rid of the ads. It sounds absurd that I pay for the device but then have to pay again to get rid of ads.


Ah, so a kindle needs to be jailbroken/rooted for sideloading books.

Also, this is the third mention of turning on airplane mode. Is this to stop Amazon from doing something to the Kindle?


E-Books, best places to get them?
I want to get back into reading, so I'm thinking of getting a Paperwhite. But I have no idea if it's possible to transfer files to it from a computer, and I have no experience with pirating books. Do I go to the same places I torrent movies and games or are there special places dedicated to E-Books? EDIT: So many awesome answers on here! You guys have been very helpful. Thanks a lot!

Oh I’ve been using Stremio for a while. But I’ll poke the Web about Popcorn when I’m home.


Popcorn Time is still alive!?

I remember using it a lot but that was years ago. Overnight it got driven into the ground by copyright. I never heard it made a comeback.
