There’s flags set in the torrent tracker that might be getting in the way here in combination with the port issue.

There might be a seed, but he can’t forward ports.

The data getting updated from “last seen” is the tracker telling your client a check in happened from a seeder I believe.

Some trackers also won’t play nice and tell the seeder about you properly if your client has a history of leeching perhaps. Enforcement of ratio etc.

You could try another client perhaps, but if multiple behave the same then you are not going to get anywhere. Perhaps try getting a temporary vps to torrent into and then pull from there. Seed boxes can solve many issues, just be mindful of cost over time.

You assume cops require a crime to have been committed before taking you…

If you can get in, Torrentleech has some items:

Adobe Zii 2021 6.0.5.zip

Its also included in Photoshop etc there.

If you have access to any private torrent trackers, if they don’t have it, you might be able to get an invite from someone on those.

This guy torments.

Seriously though, if you are cautious and stick to actual communities instead of just public or private trackers run for glam, you will usually be fine. Communities clamp down really fast if there’s a report of virus etc.

The quality of releases typically is far better, since uploading crap like virus or video covered in ads is a dick move™️

Some yes, but some no. A few I’ve been on are downright absurd in how most of the things are free.

I agree about not having to pay etc too.

I suspect I’ve just gotten lucky but several of the trackers I’ve found are easy to just let the ARRs do their thing.

Places that buy other companies to dismantle or lay off large chunks of staff and take over IP with minimal or absent quality to show from it. Just maximize that investor dollar.

Microsoft, Disney etc.

The harm performed far outweighs any investment from a “toward the artists” I see come back.

or even a group that funded it

I noted I’m ok with investors.

I’m against parasitic groups that feed on properties and prevent money getting to the actual dev folks.

Hey man, you can’t park that here

Ditto on Spotify. I have big love for piracy of FLAC for my personal music server, but I also have a decent rack filled with physical offerings from my favorite bands.

My Bandcamp collection is also getting up there, since a few of my favs say they are treated well there, and it’s FLAC friendly as well.

Physical media or merch directly from the band is absolutely the way to go every time if possible.

Cool argument, except a huge quantity of pirated works aren’t “owned” by the creator or even a group that funded it, but instead by parasitic companies that abuse capitalistic tools to actually steal value from those creators.

I have thousands of purchased games. 3 categories here:

1: obtained as part of a pack (humble gog etc)

2: purchased AFTER trying out via pirate copy to know if it is my kind of thing

3: picked up early access due to demo or general interest from being a known smaller dev/studio (hare brained for example)

With less and less access to shareware and viable demos, piracy is often the only conduit to prevent me getting ripped off of $80 for something that looks like a shiny sports car but end up being another “buy $800 in dlc for the full story!” Ford pinto.

Additionally, I now flat refuse to fund the likes of Denuvo, and wish that piracy actively hurt the bottom line of companies deploying that kind of anti-user shit.

Not with THAT attitude you won’t!

This is the right approach.

I personally use UniFi 6 dishes for my APs, and am never going back to “consumer”.

A note unsaid: typically these also handle band steering and roaming awareness. This means that you can walk from one AP to another and they will connect you seamlessly without fighting over who is stronger, and will adapt to prevent collisions.

Not sure about Aruba (almost guaranteed they have the same), but you want the options to deploy a Wifi config universally across your house, with each member being aware of and cooperating with the others. In UniFi case, they will occasionally scan the spectrum and auto assign the channels for what is least crowded in the range. The group automatically avoids each other during this process and it’s beautiful.

US taxes. Nearly zero value to 95+% of the people spending into it.

Cattle mutilations are up.

Nice fukkin’ model!

Honk Honk

Yes, have some.

Thanks for this. This was one of a few videos I was shown by an old friend a few days before gastric cancer took him… it was the last day where he was fully cognizant.

Nice to know this is a positive memory despite.

Not sure about your area, but a wireguard accessible OOB connection is a great piece of kit to keep handy. I use a cheap 768kbps SIM in an Ethernet connected switch into my personal systems. It’s saved my skin numerous times.

I’m sure this is obvious, especially in hindsight, but just mentioning because the existence of IoT LTE data plans for a minimal fee ( $100/year for me in Midwest US) was NOT obvious to me until 2 years ago.

Sending positive vibes, and passing offer of technical assistance once you get access again.

Hopefully it’s an easy fix once you get into things again.

Does this include media I grabbed but literally never opened or looked at?
