There are quite a few cheap IPTV subscriptions out there with 50k+ channels, but my question is, why do you still watch live TV? With piracy, you can grab any movie or TV show you want and watch it on demand with Jellyfin or Plex. Am I missing out by not watching TV channels myself?
I enjoy listening to the news once in a while in the evening while drinking a coffee after supper. I like just putting it on and not having to make a “choice”.
I thought about using OpenVPN for piracy, since it’s open source and can be easily set up on Arch Linux. Does anyone know about the quality of it or if I should use another VPN?
And even if you get a VPS, there is a money trail coming right back at you unless you pay with cryptocurrencies (and even with cryptocurrencies, it’s not impossible to trace it back).
And there’s nothing stopping the VPS provider from cancelling your service if they get too many inquiries from anti-piracy groups about traffic coming from your VPS and keeping the balance of the money you spent.
Does anybody know of a way to use their IPTV service to watch together with friends besides screen sharing? I wanted to watch some sports with friends and I hate that when I use discord, there’s lots of frame drops and quality issues. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
One thing I found that helps for sharing an IPTV stream on Discord is to use OBS as an intermediary.
Instead of sharing the IPTV window directly into Discord, I capture the IPTV window in OBS to send the output of that as a virtual webcam stream, which I then share to Discord.
Hi. My school just started issuing devices last year, and they have this Lightspeed spyware on them. Last year I was able to remove it by booting into Linux from a flash drive and moving the files to a separate drive and then back at the end of the year. This year I have heard from sources that they have ways of detecting...
It depends what they use for monitoring. If they use Intel vPro then they can technically take over from any operating systems since it runs at the TPM/firmware level.
After trying endlessly for two years to run a file sharing site with user anonymity we have been tired of handling the extreme volumes of people abusing it and the headaches it has created for us. Maybe it is hard to understand but after tens of million uploads and many petabytes later all work of handling abuse was automated...

It doesn’t fit well into my life. With work, the kids and all the responsibilities that comes with it I can’t afford to sink a lot of time into it, so if I get a game I’ll focus on single-player games, or I’ll go with multiplayer games with a co-op to at least enjoy the game without it being a competition.
I’m wondering if there’s a place like crackwatch for new movie/show releases, news and such? Not like direct links of course but news when things have been posted or sourced.
I recently noticed that the default background for Ubuntu 23.04 “Lunar Lobster” has a purple star missing and now that i noticed it, i can’t unsee it. The one towards the bottom right is barely visible so that passes.
So my family has a few containers of unused blank dvds that are just lying around collecting dust. i know dvds are almost useless because of streaming, but can they still be used. Theses dvds can only be written to once and they only have like 3 gb of storage on them, can they still be used?, do they have a use?
