Then just subscribe for that month and then cancel. We switch around from all of them; one month netflix, next month HBO, apple the next, etc… Don’t understand why people keep the subscriptions when they dont use the service…

What if your seedbox is located in the Netherlands? (Mine is…)

Another Memmy fan. No issues at all. Memmy on IOS, Voyager on desktop…

I am using Memmy on iOS. It rocks! Does everything I need without any adds. Very happy with it.

Been using Plex for years as bought the Plex lifetime deal when it was on offer many many moons ago. Is jellyfin any better? (My biggest concern with Plex is that they have a list of all my content I believe so not happy about that).

Should add use a nvidia shield with an external hard drive with all the content on it and stream to other android devices (fire sticks).

These guys piss me off so much.

My mum was a cleaner at a hospital. She then worked her way up to the cleaning manager. My childhood is filled with memories of her colleagues who were her friends. She didn’t need to work as my dad had a good job; she did it to support me and my brother through studies and university.

She taught me to respect people. Their profession is irrelevant; everyone deserves respect and acknowledgment. It was single handedly the best lesson that a parent can give and one that I have adhered to all my life.

I am on first name terms with all the service personnel where I live and work. I always give thanks to them and leave gifts at Christmas/birthdays, etc to show my appreciation. When a waiter fills my glass or takes my plates a simple Thank-you is the least we can say.

Thanks to my mum working I came through university with little debts and have climbed the heights of the corporate ladder. You would not believe the number of times my peers have pulled me up for what I consider common curtesy with comments like “you don’t need to thank them; it’s their job”. You know what… fuck those guys; if am at a business lunch with a potential supplier and they treat the staff like shit the deal is off the table. Have even blocked hires if I hear they are disrespectful to the secretaries or security staff.

We have not walked in other peoples shoes and have no idea what they have gone through. Until they disrespect you or you beliefs everyone deserves your respect.

End of rant… :-)

Just went down a rabbit hole… Turns out IPTorrents give a different torrent file for each user so it’s independent of IP address. It’s the torrent client that reports back the down and upload volumes. Now need to see if this info could be used by the rights holders for claims…

That makes sense but leads me to another question… How do site like IP torrents track the user upload / download ratio? Say if I were to log in and use my home internet connection to download a torrent file from there and then use a seedbox to do the download the contents? It can’t be IP based as the IP’s would be different; is each torrent file downloaded different for each user?

If I were to torrent I could see myself using a seedbox for the downloading and uploading but sure I would be lax when it came to visiting the torrent site so my ip address would likely be captured… ;-)

On a similar note how safe is it to use private torrents such as IPTorrents? They obs keep a log of users and upload/download stats and probably the torrents downloaded and ip addresses. Surely rights holders would be better off going after this data no?

Good girl… :o)

Best of both worlds!

Yeah I had to ask also…

Fully agree with you! My point was that it isn’t just the likes of Amazon that do this. If we look to piracy it’s growing in areas where a paid for service is either split across several providers or isn’t convenient.

I no longer pirate games or music as the paid for services are way easier to use and value for money.

The movie and tv companies started to have this when Netflix started but now there’s too many services and even on the same service the catalogues are different depending upon location. So instead of getting a share of revenue they get nothing.

It’s the same with steam games and other online stores. You are granted a licence to use the software; not to own it.

Unethical Life Tip: Find a nice expensive steak in the supermarket and go to the fruit section and weigh it as the cheap apples; pop the ticket barcode over the steaks barcode. When you go to the self service checkout scan the steak and pop it on the scale. The steak weight will match the barcode scan weight and it will look like you scanned the item to the security camera.

Consider the saving as your payment for doing the supermarkets job for them…

Alternatively do the first steps and pop the steak back in the fridge to pass on the saving to another customer.

Yeah, was done with https://clipdrop.co/stable-diffusion

Prompt was “a happy lemming sat in a bath of orange heinz baked beans” with a digital art style. Pretty impressive result considering the low effort…

First and last one from me… :)
