I downloaded a cracked version od CLO3D from a torrent link. I got the link from a reddit thread where the guy said you had to copy paste the crack to continue, what does that mean?

I have the downloaded file, which contains the software and a folder called "Crack". When I run the software in the main folder it requires registration, so I'm assuming it hasn't been cracked. If I run the file inside the crack folder, it says some files are missing. Im pretty new to piracy and this is the first time I've had to do something like this.

Any help would be appreciated :)

Am trying smartcric and it works sometimes and sometimes not. Other way is bet365 but only shows match and nothing else. CricHD is also difficult to navigate to right channel with every click taking me to neighbourhood milf

Any other website.

1. Filehosters

Whenever using DDL for games, the download speed matters and many filehosters limit your download speeds and even have trackers. I made a nice and naughty list for you containing some prominent hosters. If you have an option to use the good ones, use them.

  • Gofile, Buzzheavier, Mediafire, MegaNZ (though you may not like it cause it downloads using browser)
  • MegaDB, Uploadhaven, 1Fichier

2. DDL is safe without VPN, torrents are not

Torrenting + VPN must go together. Bind your VPN to your client of choice. DDLs do not need a VPN to use.

3. Use Internet Archive

There's a very good collection of Linux games, and you can find many things on archive, although use the torrents because their DDL is slow due to server overload (i think).

4. Use a download manager

IDM on Windows can be bypassed and on Linux you can use XDM.

My parents bought a "MAG box" in India and have been using it in the States - however, they're hard of hearing and we can't seem to enable subtitles. Anyone have a solution for this?

So, I just found out that my copy of Minecraft—yes, the one I bought and have a receipt for—apparently won’t work anymore because I missed the account migration period. According to the receipt, “All our games are distributed digitally and you can download them any number of times from any number of computers,” which now seems like a fucking lie. I had no clue about the migration process because I haven’t played in about a year, and all their emails went straight to my spam folder.

I could pay again for something I already own, but I’m not about to do that. Does anyone know how I can actually download or access the game I paid for?

Hello!

I've been using the megathread for awhile now, but most of the movie streaming sites are blocked by Norton - are they dangerous sites or is Norton working overtime to stop me from watching sonic 3? How do I get it to allow these sites while also protecting me from danger.

Thanks a happy new year!

Asking for a friend that downloads suspicious research material and doesn't want it to be discovered by anyone but wants to keep seeding to build ratio on private trackers. They use qbittorent for general purpose torrenting

I'm completely new to this and was wondering why wma songs under 320k have a slight cracking sound in the background?

If I'm describing the sound incorrectly I apologize. That's as best as I can describe it.

Is there a way to get rid of the noise? I have an older mp3 player (RCA Lyra RD1071A) if that helps with the question.

My guess is that my old mp3 plays 320k better for whatever reason.

I say this because I noticed my mp3s that are in 320k sound very clear. Anything lower than 320k has the cracking noise in the background.

So what do you all think?

TL;DR -- Streaming services have terrible apps and terrible quality so I resort to piracy. Anyone else?


I'm subscribed to a few streaming services: Netflix, Disney, Apple, Prime, Discovery, "Now"

I would expect to enjoy all the shows I want from my Apple TV 4k, but of course not.

Prime is basically unusable because the whole app UI loads at 720p, making it painful to find and select the episodes. Also, the cards that suddenly expand any time you stop scrolling just drive me nuts.

Disney keeps loading HIMYM episodes at 720p and only one episode out of ten loads okay, and of course the splash screen animation runs a couple of times in a row to make sure I understood I'm on Disney. Sometimes it even shows up while I'm watching a show and press any button. Same quality issue for Netflix, but there it's enough to quit the episode and start again to fix it. Mind I'm on a 2.5gbps fiber connection.

"Now" has the worst UI ever created, I can favorite shows, but there's no place in the app to see a list of my favorites! They even have a buggy app icon that is cut out.

Most of these apps just straight out forget my watch history or decide to not show a "continue watching" button somewhere prominent.

I'm forced to use my pirate setup, composed of Infuse, Trakt, Plex, and Synology Download Station, to download shows that are already available on the services I'm subscribed to just so I can watch them at full resolution, have a good UI, and good watch history.

Am I just the unluckiest man on earth or is this a common issue?

p.s. The only service that just works is Apple TV+

I am just wondering if anyone here had any issues using the unofficial qBittorrent plugins. Are they safe?

Thank you taking the time to write your answer ♥

Im trying to find an app to download Spotify songs for offline listening but i cant find a good one. All the ones i have either just give you the mp3 or they dont have any functions. I would like one where im still able to use Spotify functions like skipping songs, shuffle, etc. Does anyone know an app that has this? Thanks in advance!

But I'd sure as hell pirate one, rather than give Elon Musk full access to the "telemetry" of my car.

I have an Android head unit in my car from Xtrons, they have a built in app that is used to modify settings etc.

Each of the main pages are locked/ hidden behind secret codes, Xtrons provide you with the Factory Settings passcode (0000, how inventive) which has majority of the settings.

Going through activity launcher i have found there are more pages including one that is used to hide Stock Android options such as Dark Mode which i enabled using Wireless ADB.

Xtrons haven't provided anything helpful when i reached out, I've tried searching online through many places like XDA and such and asked in one of the Android/ Android Head Units a few weeks back but no one replied and I fear that is because they think i am trying to find something for cracking passcodes.

What I am looking for is the passcodes to that app and wonder if there is a way to decompile the app to obtain them or if there is a APK that could brute force the passcode screen the app presents, when I've searched into this it only brings back results about unlocking the device itself not specific apps.

Or if i can decompile but not find the codes could i modify the app to bypass them?

I am sorry it is not directly piracy related but feel it can be considered piracy to gain access and have full control of the radio when im clearly not meant to

I'm looking for free STLs for Warhammer 40k, I don't feel like spending 30$ on 3 plastic miniatures and a 6 paints paint set.

Does anybody know of maybe a Telegram channel I could visit for that matter?

It's one of my favourite Jackie Chan movies. Typical Chan comedy, has a lot of adventure. It took a while to download even with a 1 gb fibre optic line because it didn't have a lot of seeders. New releases don't really have that issue, so I don't seed everything. But this movie is a gem, and I don't want it to get ignored or forgotten, and I will seed it till I can't anymore.

Basically the title. How safe is it to use in Germany and how high is the risk? Are you anonymous there or are you tracked, as with torrents, and then receive unwanted mail? What should be considered in general and what security measures should be taken (e.g. VPN?). Thanks in advance!
