Looks like I was wrong…

this is from an older thread before the final closing announcement:

24 February 2024

…

Yesterday, we received unfortunate news from one of our trusted admins stating that the owner of the site intends to shut it down due to insufficient revenue.

fucking nice… is that on their public eu domain? having trouble finding it but probably looking in the wrong places

anyone feels like pm my dumbass the loc or give a hint, i’d appreciate it

edit: also tried dht (qbittorrent, solidtorrents) but no joy there either

edit2: to fellow drunken fools:

is that on their public eu domain?

the ansqer is ‘yes’. See: /public/Random/torrents

edit3: had a few drinks and forgot to add the one i got from eu domain… brought qbit up again after i sobered up and it still had the dht search open and so I figured why not and retried it… and now it was showing up there too (via bt4g dot org). go figure

now i just need to free up enough space to acually dl it (it has things packaged as multiple ~8GB .7z files, so anybody who was hping to pick-and-choose based on what you want subs for, sorry to disappoint; gotta dl whole thing and extract to do that … so really you need quite a bit more than 90gb if you account for the archives + whatever size of extracted files is)

well, also it was not long ago with a short-time frame…

If it all turns out to be a prank / main account was hacked / etc, great … but could see someone who expects a lot of negative feedback or even somene who have a lot going on offline not really bothering to look at commentss

plus we all knw silent legal / state presure is a thing… rarbg, kat, and many others had people willing to take over but ithink they got legal pressure to stop.

my plan is just have a few glasses of boubron and relax. we are hydra and all that lol

hey’re now owned by Kape Technologies, a company that used to do bloat/malware development to do shady data mining.

not a new thing. been that way fr years nw. sucsk but there apps are stlll foss (on github), still 3rd pary audite, and ii still havent been sued for downlodaing shit lpl

an they have wg. but you neeed to clone their git repo and run some shit to generate it. i wish it was just a simple conf file like ovpn but something about auth token i think. idr

I have encountered some annoying “prove you are human” prompts when using Google Search so I mostly use DuckDuckGo.

same. searx.be anohter good one

I think there hasn’t been a release this year without subs in the container.

there are for sure tv releases that are missing subs. also some that h=as subs but text is wrng… specialy sutff like lower-sizd encodes. havent watchd muhc movie this year so not sure on those.

but fuckyeah i apriciate when teams include subs in there relases

ain’t got none but hyptotheticaly, sure. better’n them gettin busted with a dcma or whatever cuz they dont know how to chekc for dns leaks and use failsafes to block non-vpn access. most of us started off and had to lern ho wto do shit the reight way. why nt help em do beter

i woldnt want my kibds to be soem kind of normies that dont even know wtf a vpn is

FOr anyone else reading this while slightly inebrinated, note: AR = AlphaRadio (a private tracker). Nothing happening to the Arr tools.

Everyone else, pardon my and my whiskey.

sites that allow users to download the audio from YouTube URLs

you guys use sites for that? I just use vpn + yt-dlp

Is why I like to have multiple aliases and always connect via vpn… harder to sue me if they can’t figure out who I really am.

On that note, it would be really cool if there was a TOR-based github alternative (or even an I2P-based one) for hosting project repos somewhere that take-downs have no effect and servers can’t be seized. Anybody aware of anything like that? then again, I’m not even sure how I would configure git / ssh to use a TOR-based server lol

From a less selfish perspective, if it exists in decent quality on public trackers, I’d rather contribute to keeping it alive there, where more people can access it.

This is the way. If more people did this then arguably no one would even need private trackers…

my bad. deleted my previous guesses since it seems i missed a few key words there

in any case, seems to be working for me now. same pc, same vpn, same dns, connected via same vpn server. so no clue

lol good points and so true. reading this just makes me think of the old quote If the penalty for a crime is a fine, that law only exists for the lower classes. When I think of record labels and big film companies, let’s just say that the first thing that comes to mind isn’t starving artists but coastal elitists getting pissy bc they can’t charge people even more.

Appears to be down now, getting 500 proxy error. If it matters, I’m on vpn, like any good sailor ought to be

probably just people who don’t want to bother with compiling everything would be my guess

“Argentinians mostly pirate content”

Arrrrgentinians?
