Also watch out for any link files, .com files and .bat files.

I think you meant .lnk files instead of link files.

.scr and .uue are also becoming popular means to spread malware through torrents.

Thankfully I don’t have to deal with any of that shit on private trackers

I pirated this meme in the highest quality I could but lemmy compresses the image to 60-70% of its original quality, that’s why it’s so blurry 😅

There’s a difference between exploiting bugs that haven’t even been found and spreading malware through a method that’s known by pretty much everyone and is still used to spread malware today.

It’s also theoretically possible that your system is already infected by some Advanced Persistent Threats but does that happen that often, No, and have people been infected by running random pdfs they found online, Yes.

You only need a VPN in very few countries, some where it is needed to avoid getting your internet connection cutoff from your ISP are the US, Germany, Greece, and a few other countries somewhere in Europe, the rest of the world doesn’t care about people downloading movies online.

Don’t download games and software from it and always check the file extensions and make sure they’re not something like Movie.mp4.exe or Movie.mkv.exe, other than that you’re good.

You’re not executing a mkv or a pdf

You’re half wrong and half right, .mkv files are completely safe but the same can’t be said about .pdf files, attackers can embed malicious code, such as JavaScript or hidden executables, within a PDF file.

People really underestimate the capabilities of this .pdf file format. I remember some time ago, someone managed to run doom inside a .pdf file.

F95zone.to but they only allow stuff that’s either in English or at least has English subtitles/translation patches.

Can you even do this in their new desktop app, as far as I know, profiles are for paid users only

That is called engagement farming, pretty common on YouTube, there are probably 50 videos like this released in the past month, they just copy paste from each other, each getting hundreds and thousands of views.

The only noticeable decline in piracy came in the year when Netflix got famous, which got reverted in the next few years due to the launch of another 100 Streaming sites and netflix’s enshittification.

Damn I didn’t know he had a studio of his own, I thought they were just another index team like fmhy. Dude’s a piece of shit regardless.

Thank you for informing me about this.

When did this happen and where can I read more about this ?

Well, the fmhy nsfw index still exists and other than that, there’s theporndude index, it’s pretty great but still has a few sponsored sites here and there.

No

Depends on the tracker, RED for example lets you see all the stats

Honestly, I never really focused on the “build this real life looking object in minecraft” aspect. The most fun I’ve had is while building farms, I’m not super smart so I do have to use tutorials and mods like Litematica but once they’re finished, the joy of seeing all the resources pour in is amazing.

I also like doing mundane tasks like clearing a large patch of trees to make space for building another farm/building while listening to music or videos, it’s really relaxing.

And yeah it’s one of those games that are way more fun when you play with friends.

Is there a way I can do this without docker? I just run Qbit on my regular windows computer and don’t wanna delve into Docker. Would Love to share the 5k+ torrents I have on the I2p network.
