All public torrents I have found are dead. Anyone knows a place where I can find this movie in decent quality? (At least 1080p.) Thanks.

I usually do not have a problem finding books online but this one is a bit tricky. It's done by the Death Panel podcast hosts so it is likely a smaller publisher, but I really want to check it out. I could not seem to find it in any libraries near me and I don't have much to spare to buy a copy.

Audiobookbay is a great site, and 80% of what I need is on there. Frustratingly, the 20% I'm missing is seemingly nowhere on the net.

Any comrades have an alternative I can look into? Or, hell, if anyone has the audio book for Dawn of the Planet of the Apes: Firestorm, I'd probably shit.

Not posting links since I am on a phone but recently Nintendo of America filed a suit against Tropic Haze LLC, the LLC behind said emulators. Yesterday, Tropic Haze settled with Nintendo. They are to pay $2.4 million in damages and have to stop distributing (and maybe working on) Yuzu. Yuzu and Citra git repositories are gone from GitHub.

The tactic used by Nintendo was targeting the monetisation practices by the devs. They had a Patreon with paywalled early access builds. So the "emulation is legal" argument was irrelevant here. They also mention how Yuzu was used to play the leaked ROM of Tears of the Kingdom, the latest overhyped Zelda game.

It is a bit sad we won't be able to play overhyped Nintendo console exclusives anyone through Yuzu. There is still Ryujinx but from my experience it is more resource heavy. Also I don't know about its future. I tried finding if its devs commented on this news but have not come across anything like that so far.

Right now I'm looking forward to watching two movies: "The Boy and the Heron" and "Godzilla Minus One"

Neither is on streaming services or BluRay yet. Which means that good quality torrents (IMO at least web-rip) are not available yet.

Is there a good way of figuring out when a decent torrent is available? I don't mean setting up some service like sonarr/radarr because those seem overkill (though my mind on this can be changed with a persuasive argument). Rather maybe some website I can check? Thanks.

DDoS secrets responsible for hosting leaks such as EpikFail and BlueLeaks will stop its activities, I would like help from anyone who has space left so we can download everything and keep seeding.

Comrades!

I'm not sure if you're all familiar with this website, but it is one that contains so much free stuff. Which includes more piracy through torrent sites even though you can use qbittorrent to search.

Have a look!

i recently canceled my spotify subscription, so i'm looking to download whole albums and if possible download whole discography easily instead of individual songs

Edit: thank you all comrades for the recomendations!

I had to buy this album since I could not find it online. If possible please share it on torrent trackers or soulseek since it is a good album.

why using private trackers if you can use open directories?

For the comrades who need it.

Educational section from FMHY (courses/books/ect) since the main page doesn't list it directly.

I actually paid for a course but there's no simple way to get it working on a TV without just having it on a USB drive. I tried the pirate bay but it the course is 5 years old on it.

I found this but it's understandably low quality since the show is old. I was wondering if it exists in high definition somewhere. Maybe it was remastered on something like that seeing how it is a classic.

Below are direct quotes from the filings.

OpenAI

As noted in Paragraph 32, supra, the OpenAI Books2 dataset can be estimated to contain about 294,000 titles. The only “internet-based books corpora” that have ever offered that much material are notorious “shadow library” websites like Library Genesis (aka LibGen), Z-Library (aka B-4ok), Sci-Hub, and Bibliotik. The books aggregated by these websites have also been available in bulk via torrent systems. These flagrantly illegal shadow libraries have long been of interest to the AI-training community: for instance, an AI training dataset published in December 2020 by EleutherAI called “Books3” includes a recreation of the Bibliotik collection and contains nearly 200,000 books. On information and belief, the OpenAI Books2 dataset includes books copied from these “shadow libraries,” because those are the most sources of trainable books most similar in nature and size to OpenAI’s description of Books2.

Meta

Bibliotik is one of a number of notorious “shadow library” websites that also includes Library Genesis (aka LibGen), Z-Library (aka B-ok), and Sci-Hub. The books and other materials aggregated by these websites have also been available in bulk via torrent systems. These shadow libraries have long been of interest to the AI-training community because of the large quantity of copyrighted material they host. For that reason, these shadow libraries are also flagrantly illegal.

This article from Ars Tecnica covers a few more details. Filings are viewable at the law firm's site here.

BreadTube is a place to check out left videos, discuss content from creators, and share memes and ideas.

I'm searching for a certain windows activation tool that I know was there but don't remember the name. Also would be cool to have that archive saved in here somewhere.

Not sure where to post this so I'll put it here.

I had some problems with data at first but at the end of the day It was well worth it 👍

My phone's battery and performance are just as mediocre as before, but at least the phone is way more usable now and it supports apps that couldn't be installed before (such as Jerboa, my phone had Android 7.1.1 💀).

My phone cost me I think like 200€ back in 2018 and while the battery has certainly degraded, it was originally really big so I don't feel the need to get a new phone, especially now that I put Android 13 in it.

tldr: a huge torrent of books straight from the academic publisher De Gruyter

cross-posted from: https://teddit.net/r/DataHoarder/comments/1463ah3/degruyter_collection/

Trying again because reddit filters, let's see if I get it right this time.

After months of scraping I finally finished downloading almost every single degruyter book to which I have access, which are many. And so I created a torrent.

magnet:?xt=urn:btih:76f573241a0126fb1ab0aa5540cc7493c045ae74&dn=Degruyter%20Imprints%20v2%20%5b09-06-23%5d&tr=http%3a%2f%2fatrack.pow7.com%2fannounce&tr=udp%3a%2f%2fopen.stealth.si%3a80%2fannounce&tr=udp%3a%2f%2ftracker.cyberia.is%3a6969%2fannounce&tr=udp%3a%2f%2fretracker.lanta-net.ru%3a2710%2fannounce&tr=udp%3a%2f%2ftracker.moeking.me%3a6969%2fannounce&tr=udp%3a%2f%2ftracker.tiny-vps.com%3a6969%2fannounce&tr=udp%3a%2f%2ftracker.torrent.eu.org%3a451%2fannounce&tr=udp%3a%2f%2ftracker.openbittorrent.com%3a80%2fannounce&tr=http%3a%2f%2ftracker.openbittorrent.com%3a80%2fannounce&tr=udp%3a%2f%2fopentra

The content of the torrent is pretty much these https://www.degruyter.com/search?query=*&startItem=0&pageSize=10&sortBy=mostrecent&documentVisibility=all&documentTypeFacet=book&publisherFacet=De+Gruyter%7EDe+Gruyter+Oldenbourg%7EDe+Gruyter+Saur%7EDe+Gruyter+Mouton

Neither the files nor the series are renamed. They all bear the original filenaming which is much better since it can easily be keyed to the book's unique page.

Note: this torrent includes only the abovementioned degruyter imprints. In the upcoming weeks I will create a second torrent, with the degruyter partner publishers: about 100k books from these publishers

https://i.imgur.com/mSKrLto.png And in few months the last torrent which will include the degruyter journals.

This endeavour would have not been possible were not for all the people that granted me academic access, wrote scripts for me, helped me ensure the integrity of the files, and so on. Sadly many files, especially epubs, are corrupted or downright missing at the source. There are also some dupes that, being part of multiple series and subseries, were downloaded twice. Total torrent size is about 2tb.

https://i.imgur.com/BjqsUqJ.png of course everything is actively being shared with nexus/annas/libgen as well as private groups and friends and the classicist discord channel. I did not waste months so I could jerkoff on the big numbah, therefore I want the files to be shared and reshared as much as possible in order to grant indirect academic access to all those students (me being one) whose universities cannot afford degruyter subscriptions.

Last note: all the files are retail untouched (according to BIB standards, if anyone here is a member). So if some epub has shitty formatting blame the publisher.

I just set up my first Plex server and found that I have to convert all of my totally legally obtained MKVs to MP4s to run on Plex.

Right now I'm encoding them with HandBrake and it's taking ~30 mins per file and using 100% of my CPUs capacity (running around 80 degrees C).

Is this how most of you guys do it? or am I missing something? I'm concerned about hurting the lifespan of my CPU. Would using my GPU to encode be a better option?

All that is left is a blank page stating the following:

Hello guys:

We have decided to close soap2day forever.

We are very sorry :)

Bye
