An increase in bad seeds on Bit Torrent?

So I've been grabbing a few shows I want to watch reruns of while playing Balatro that don't have good blu ray releases. My piracy is fairly limited these days so I don't bother with private trackers (do have a VPN though). In the past, I never really had an issue with grabbing a few one offs off the popular, maybe honeypot,...

I haven't been paying attention. What made a "golden upvote" significantly different than gold?

can ,

Lemmy is not a monolith. Sign up somewhere else or make your own communities.

But you jumping to "comments are terrorism now" leads me to believe your experiences may not be so one sided.

can ,

It's not so cut and dry with Lemmy either. Admins can still view it (though not as easily).

can ,

Ultimately you need only a tiny fraction of that data to emulate the human brain.

Point for simulation theory.

can ,

Maybe you can ask one of your human friends to help?

can ,

That's not a lemmy.world link

can ,

Right, so it's a Lemmy thing, not a Lemmy world thing,

can ,

I feel like you're missing the point. Maybe I wasn't clear. Yes, Lemmy World does use it, however it's a feature of Lemmy itself, not just of Lemmy World. Lemmy World is just one instance of Lemmy and they all use the same markup.

My point is calling it the Lemmy.World markup is inaccurate and potentially misleading. Lemmy is more than just Lemmy.World.

can ,

and I've been arguing with people that take any slight ambiguity from me as ammo to attack me with,

I'm sorry if I made you feel that way. For the future anything hosted at join-lemmy.org would be part of the Lemmy software itself.

Can you explain it?

can ,

That markup formatting for spoilers isn't even supported by Lemmy.

Its literally jus holdover from Reddit's way of doing it.

can ,

I was trying to think of what the impactful differences between IRC and Matrix are (it's been a while).

“While being as open as IRC, Matrix provides a user experience which is similar to Slack or Discord to some extent. It’s modern, it’s persistent, and […] it’s actually less confusing to newcomers than an extremely simple application like Jargonaut.”

Persistancy! It's funny how that completely slipped my mind. The expectation from a chat room app has changed a lot since I last regularly used IRC and I guess I forgot what it used to be like.

can ,

I also get this periodically on WiFi and data.

Besides lemmy, what's another good reddit alternative?

Hi! Recently exiled reddit user, here. I'm curious what other alternatives to reddit there are, besides Lemmy, and Raddle, of course. Also, imho, Phuks is a good alternative, there's no hate-speech (that I'm aware of) and people are pretty respectful. Anyways, let's hear your suggestions! Thank you!

can ,

It's like Mastadon (but better) and very popular in Japan. Firefish is fork of it.

can ,

Together with Firefish developer Namekuji, Panos Damelos have started the Catodon project, a fork of Firefish. In the announcement blog post Catodon dives deeper into what makes the project stand out, noting the community driven aspect of the project. Catodon joins IceShrimp and Sharkey as recent Misskey fork projects that are all gaining popularity as small-scale fediverse servers.

What a world.

Downloading/torrenting kids cartoons

Hey all. noob-ish pirate here. Skipping long winded post. I'm struggling to find sources to download/torrent kids cartoons. Some are easy, but I'm looking for paw patrol and it's scarce on 1337. The more modern stuff and the super popular stuff are a little easier though. Not really any information on the Wiki about this stuff....

can , (edited )

And if there any hickups there are other addons

can OP ,

Device information

Sync version: v24.03.26-14:56

can OP ,

Thank you. Maybe it's just me.

can OP ,

No that is helpful actually. Thank you.

can OP ,

Samsung?

can OP , (edited )

So I guess it is a Samsung specific bug. Very interesting. The black background when swiping back also seems to be a Samsung only bug.

Maybe we should crowdfund lj a Samsung phone.

Edit: Spoke too soon.

can OP ,

Android 14?

can OP ,

I wasn't aware there still was a beta channel

can OP ,

I have not but I also haven't made much effort to. Now that I know it's not just me I guess I should make an official report.

How do you know if a book you pirated is complete/original/full etc ?

I downloaded a certain epub from Anna's archive but as i have never read it before and i don't know if it is a bad/incomplete copy or the real thing . I don't think I'm allowed to say which book it is but do feel free to correct me and i'll edit it in . So how do you solve this issue ? Like if it was a movie or tv episode i can...

can ,

That reminds me, many years ago I was reading Stephen King's It from an epub I found online and when I reached that scene I stopped reading and went online just to make sure I wasn't reading some long con prank someone edited in.

can ,

It doesn't really spoil much of the plot tbh and it's still a great book but going from memory:

the scene

Why is this so hard to put into words. Have you seen the movies or even the trailer? You know how It flashes between when they were young and later when they return back to the town? This scene is late in the book and takes place when they're young. The boys in the group all take turns having (consensual) sex with the girl

the rationale?

it represents them maturing into adults or the bond or something that makes them no longer vulnerable to It? Like I said it's been a while but on much later I remember it frequently being referenced as a gangbang and someone would always correct sharing it's a train 🤷‍♂️

I swear it's otherwise a fantastic book.

can ,

You could see if Broward County still let's everyone get a card and try with the Libby app.

can ,

Interesting. Maybe it's geolocked? Even though I'm not in the US. Do you have a VPN?

can ,

this video mentions Mastodon, and helped an investigation.

can ,

THIS VIDEO MENTIONS MASTODON, AND HELPED AN INVESTIGATION.

Would you teach your kids how to pirate?

My gf and I have had discussions about teaching morals to kids. In that vein, I asked myself, would I teach piracy to my kids? Yes, it’s technically illegal and carries inherent risks. But so does teenage sex carry the risks of teenage pregnancy, and so we have an obligation to children to teach them how to practice safe sex....

can ,

I will teach anyone who will listen.

can ,

Bought by Epic Games and sold a year and a half later 😩

can ,

That's really cool, thanks for the link.

can ,

I guess it's a zero tolerance policy here. Just like reddit, but that's fine, we have options here.

can ,

Anyone with that much wealth values human life far less than I do. I can guarantee you that.

can ,

Making a new reddit account was trivial to anyone willing to put in a little effort as well. It's not pointless though because I'm sure it does stop some unmotivated bad actors. Mod tools here definitely leave something to be desired right now however.

But it's different because if I feel the need to make some flippant violent comment again there are communities hosted elsewhere that won't take it so seriously. This is a good thing. dot world admins have every right to run their instance and remove content as they wish. Hosting a large instance takes a lot of work.

can ,

Too high. How about 100 million?

can ,

This is apparently a feature of Lemmy itself that has recently been implemented in Sync

can ,

I'm pretty sure headers and hashtags resulting in this is not intended so at least that should be fixed at some point.

can ,

Any progress being made here? I was really hoping that not being able to view certain communities such as !newbrunswick would be considering bad enough of a bug to bring a little development back.

can ,

Hey! Good to hear from you. Hope you took some good time for yourself. I appreciate the progress update on the merkdown.
