Give up. I refuse to pay for artificially scarce goods.

This same applies to public transport tickets, end up either staying home or walking for hours so I don’t have to pay for the damn tickets that should be free.

I don’t usually recommend this, but since you are in a situation where you really can’t afford a VPN or a seedbox and live in a country where torrenting is prosecuted then I think that grants a free pass to abuse the tor network a bit and torrent over tor.

There are some guides online on now to route the traffic, note that it’s very easy to leak traffic if you don’t know what you’re doing. Look for a good guide . I’m guessing the safest way to do it is by using Whonix.

If going that route avoid downloading big torrents if you can find smaller ones or try to search for direct downloads first.

And also, I don’t usually say this, but, avoid seeding. Yes leeching is bad, but saturating tor is probably worse I think.

I agree, but the kids didn’t deserve this, they will forever have their lives ruined thanks to their piece of shit parents. Even more if they turn out to be LGBTQ themselves.

But you can summon a touch volume control from the buttons.

While not full proof, but you can always sandbox it with firejail or bubblewrap.

But make sure to read the documentation thoroughly.

As with all google products, youtube also went from bad to worse, but it’s still enough of a giant monopoly so that they can keep making decisions that fucks both the user and the content creators without real consequences.

I used to download and seed torrents 24/7 directly from my shitty consumer smr drive.

Not only speed was very slow but I think I killed the drive because of that.

I’m still thinking how I’m going to proceed now that I’m setting up my NAS again, I think I’m going to have to torrent to some smaller, cheaper but higher quality drive and then copy to the smr archive, until I can afford an enterprise drive.

It’s also possible that I killed the drive due to bad heat management, but in the datasheet it says something that I’m only supposed to use it for 2h a day per year and not 24/7.

From my personal ethics standpoint, intellectual property is a form of private property which I’m against, also a form or artificial scarcity, which I’m also against.

If you want to support a small artist? You can maybe donate to them directly? Is that a thing? Maybe they have a patreon or something? In my case I have way less money than the artists I consume from so donating would make no sense.

Also, the act of making a copy doesn’t remove the original, the artist doesn’t get poorer because you pirate their content.

ikr? I have a friend who literally sold a cat in return for chickens.

Knowing how paranoid Putin is, I’m almost sure this is a body double

I would spend the money on a VPN instead because:

1. DLL links are always down, torrents can die too, but overall they are much more reliable, you can just have your torrent search engine to organise by seeders.

2. Much more content on torrents

3. Much higher quality, DLLs at least back when I used those had terrible quality.

4. Much easier to manage 100 downloads at the same time, sure Jdownloader exists, but…

5. RSS downloaded, you can get your favourite anime torrent or RSS and qbittorrent will download it for you every week.

6. Security, if you download software, popular torrent websites are much more trusted and moderated and you have less probably of getting malware.

7. If you subscribe to a DLL site you can use that single website, if you torrent you can download from many websites.

8. You can use the VPN for other stuff.

There’s ffshare on f-droid, but I’ve never tried it, don’t know if it works.

I personally would throw the dishwasher away, and before that, permanently damage it to make sure no poor soul picks it up from the trash thinking they scored a free dishwasher without knowing it was once used to wash literal shit.

I would never be able to ever eat anything from any dish every washed on that machine, but again, that’s me and my personal emotional reaction to it. I understand that if it reaches 90C it technically kills all bacteria or something. But I would still refuse.

For that same reason I never buy used kitchen utensils, because I have no way to know what has be used for before.
