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,...
If nothing works out; look into Android Debug Bridge (ADB) and use these package names to remove all the google bloat. Perhaps it's a bit too involved, but AFAIK this is the easiest way to gain a semblance of privacy on your phone. I don't screw about with custom roms either.
LMK if you do try to use it, I can provide some guidance if you need.
I just used gThumb recently to try to post something I had inverted, but posting it to sopuli/lemmy scrubbs the exif data and it was posted as if I didn't do anything.
So, gThumb uses exif data to modify pictures which is likely what is added.
“When I was a kid we were lucky if we only had to wait 9 months to rent a theatrical release. The generation before mine had to hope and pray a favorite of theirs would be re-released or air on one of, like, 7 TV channels. ‘I want it now’ is not a real justification for piracy.”
They would do the same if they weren't so old and crusty.
*I'm probably around the same age as this bastard. At least I'm not as crusty.
I honestly don't believe I will have any legal trouble because I don't do anything like cp or worse, I just pirate media I like, not even porn. But across users of communities, or on public trackers, is IP exposure something to be concerned about?
I'm in the same boat. There have been numerous copyright lawsuits that have been thrown out by the courts in my country; however, I pirate because I'm poor AF so I can't afford a VPN anyway.
Are you saying America doesn't suffer from ongoing systemic racism? Most of the 'upper class' as it were are old and white because of the racism inherent in the system. Pretending it's not there and calling someone a racist when talking about it is nothing more then concern trolling.
If only these groups spent all that money in underserved areas and paying artists. Classically, they'll instead go after the people filling their own service gaps.

I would probably bring a really thick permanent marker with me and some chewing gum for the speakers. I'm lucky enough to live in an area that has pretty good cycling infrastructure so I don't have to deal with that shit. I'm sorry you do though.
I don't have a twitch account, but try NoScript. The site works when only allowing twitch.tv and twitchcdn.net to load (as in I can navigate and join streams) but this might disable account features. I think the ads you're referring to are coming from amazon-adsystem.com but ads directly from streamers can't be disabled afaik.

AFAIK none of my steam games are only accessible through steam servers. All of my games are installed on-site in my HDD and I really don't think Steam can uninstall them without my knowledge or consent. E.g. I can play any one of my games without an internet connection.
I understand that the threads about the dumb shit microsoft is doing (ads, ai, etc.) are primarily just for venting frustrations; however, I just want to help. People complain about a problem, I know a good solution. Obviously I'm going to tell people about it but in the end it doesn't really matter to me if you switch or not.
Looks like something I would want to watch. Isn't it strange how the first time I've ever heard of it in the five years since it's inception is on a forum devoted to piracy? 🤔🤔🤔🤔

A big thing you can hide is the distance between your eyes. Cover one of them with hair or something and any FR tech won't work as well. You could also have a bunch of infrared led's on your hat or something then the camera wouldn't see shit. There's a video out there that's an interview with an ex-CIA agent or something that talks about disguises and whatnot.
I wouldn't mind paying for netflix if I didn't have to pay extra to not get ads, and if I didn't have to use a "smart" tv to actually get uhd, and if I trusted them with the data that they would get from that tv, and if I could share my account with my family in different cities, and if they had shows I actually wanted to watch and probably some other stuff too, but i stopped caring.
The spacing in the email screwed up the formatting:
Dear Andre,
I'm Gianpiero Morbello, serving as the Head of IOT and Ecosystem at Haier Europe.
It's a pleasure to hear from you. We just received your email, and coincidentally, I was in the process of sending you a mail with a similar suggestion.
I want to emphasize Haier Europe's enthusiasm for supporting initiatives in the open world. Please note that our IOT vision revolves around a three-pillar strategy:
achieving 100% connectivity for our appliances,
opening our IOT infrastructure (we are aligned with Matter and extensively integrating third-party connections through APIs, and looking for any other opportunity it might be interesting),
and the third pillar involves enhancing consumer value through the integration of various appliances and services, as an example we are pretty active in the energy management opening our platform to solution which are coming from energy providers.
Our strategy's cornerstone is the IOT platform and the HON app, introduced on AWS in 2020 with a focus on Privacy and Security by Design principles. We're delighted that our HON connected appliances and solutions have been well-received so the number of connected active consumers is growing day after day, with high level of satisfaction proven by the high rates we receive in the App stores.
Prioritizing the efficiency of HON functions when making AWS calls has been crucial, particularly in light of the notable increase in active users mentioned above. This focus enables us to effectively control costs.
Recently, we've observed a substantial increase in AWS calls attributed to your plugin, prompting the communication you previously received as standard protocol for our company, but as mentioned earlier, we are committed to transparency and keenly interested in collaborating with you not only to optimize your plugin in alignment with our cost control objectives, but also to cooperate in better serving your community.
I propose scheduling a call involving our IOT Technology department to address the issue comprehensively and respond to any questions both parties may have.
Hope to hear back from you soon.
Best regards
Gianpiero Morbello
Head of Brand & IOT
Haier Europe
