I read it too fast that I thought TorrentFreak was down. 😅

I used a seedbox some time ago to download a specific big torrent (at the time). I payed using Paypal, as I don’t consider seedboxes a low-hanging-fruit for rightsholders to persecute at the moment.
There’s too much redundant data on these services, so if they takedown one user’s data, there’s still lots of the same torrented data on other user’s. I don’t think rightsholders are willing to play wack-a-mole for such infractions.
They’d rather invest their resources on more centralized file sharing, such as big public torrent sites and cyberlockers.
I’m sorry but I don’t remember typing this LostRedditors stuff. I’m just as confused as you are. (some mod edited my comment?)
And it was never my intention being combative about the NewPipe competitors. I just think Vanced and ReVanced are in a completely different category of apps. As they potentially may step on some DMCA rule, they’re far more vulnerable of being taken out by Google. And most hobbyst devs just abandon their projects at the first sign of a DMCA or Cease and Desist.
In general, movie piracy is more targeted by rightsholders, so if OP is not interested in this category he’s pretty safe in a country the doesn’t care.
How will this migration actually work? The comments transfer over?
If Piped is basically a proxy to access YouTube videos, who pays for this proxy (which shouldn’t be cheap)?
I’m out of the loop on this subject. I know Onedrive previously offered 15GB to free users, then strunk it to 5GB, but kept the larger amount to legacy users.
Have they made another reduction recently?
r/LostRedditors
Certainly it is illegal to distribute Vanced because it’s a modified version of Youtube official app, which is copyrighted.
Re-vanced may have found a workaround so that users modify the app themselves, but Google may claim DMCA’s anti-circunvention rule is being breached, and sue the relevant parties if they wanted to.
If the criteria of comparison is being open source and long-lived, no other YouTuber player app matches NewPipe. There’s Vanced/ReVanced, but they’re on another category and border the illegal.
If you’re asking because you’re tired of NewPipe’s UI, I read that the developers are planning to revamp it to get rid of some technological debt and streamline further development.
“Rip” implies re-enconding. Web-DL is the exact video stream as it is transmited, without any further re-encondings by the release group. Unless I’m wrong…?
If there’s some re-encoding, would the file still be considerd “WEB-DL” at this point?
The first Far Cry wasn’t developed by Ubisoft like the rest of the franchise. Does anyone know what prompted the franchise changing hands?
Lemmy taking over as a protocol would not be a bad thing, because by design it promotes the creation of multiple federated instances. At least the UI woukd be standardized, lowering the user friction in case he needs to migrate.
I was under the impression iAMA was pretty much dead after Victoria was fired. Has any AMA of note occured there since then?
I read somewhere that ECM compresses by removing the error-correction sectors from an ISO file.
It’s already proven that discs can technically work without them. Dreamcast GD-ROMs are basically the practical application of this concept, with the goal of expanding CD-ROM storage from 700MB to 1GB.
That’s why the size reduction is cumulative if the user apply ECM and then 7zip compression afterwards. That’s because ECM is actually a trimming method rather than an actual compression scheme in the traditional sense.
I thought the same thing as I saw the imagine. 😅
I saw a “high refresh rate” option in the settings. Have you tried enabling it?
Is your phone 100% un-Googled?
Didn’t notice anything different. In fact, I can’t change to “All” anymore (coincidence?). That’s why I’m exploring Connect right now.
No need to panic. I simply went to my uBlock Origin filter page, and clicked on the “house” icon of the Bypass Paywalls Clean. It redirected me to magnolia1234’s (the filter author) gitflic page that contains a more DMCA-resistant filter link. As this site is hosted in Russia, I don’t think Putin will care to help western newspapers. 😉
