Specific niches that don’t see much love in public trackers. Are you looking for a spanish dub for a recent movie? An eroge? Indie rock music? Your chance of finding it with a private tracker dedicated to such content is way higher.

The addresses they’ll send are mostly shipping companies that take stuff and ship them directly to another country. Check their address, you’ll very likely see such a building that advertises to ship stuff.

AoE2. I played the hell out of singleplayer back in the day, and with Remastered they both added new ones and improved the storytelling in old ones. Art of War campaign also is a good introduction to multiplayer combat.

If you like historic stuff; you’ll like it. There also exists lot of community campaigns

If only i had an invite

Never knew it was dead, that’s a sad loss. Hope it comes back, I used to use there quite a lot.

With the way federation works, not much. People from all sorts of federation capable sites can see the content posted from different instances; but considering its conviniences I think its worth it.

Not needed (unless the target site is blocked in your country); as the videos themselves are publicly viewable. yt-dlp behaves like a typical viewer to these sites.

Thumb of rule is, If you don’t make enough to comfortably pay for some software; you simply don’t pay for said software.

this is a repost

Cool. Biggest reason I quit reddit was I hate was them enforcing their dumb layout. While there exists other reasons like powermods, If I can visit it through mastodon or lemmy; why not really?

Could you try yt-dlp? Not sure if it’ll work; but it’s worth a try

tip: use haveibeenpwned to see where your passwords have gotten leaked.

You could do unintentional linking if you don’t want to be subject to DMCA claims, like putting in the description

“We do not provide support for external projects that use our code, like shadow-website. Please contact them for further assistance.”

or

“If you’re using external services like shadow-website, please say so while reporting issues/bugs.”

This gives off an air of legitimacy to the shadow-website to anyone who’s interested in looking at mothership, but doesn’t explicitly associate it with mothership.

From their description, we can easily assume site M is mangadex.

Going after the sole legitimate scanlation site is the dumbest idea ever, considering there have been many instances where manga sites have collaborated with scanlators from there to provide legit translations; and the scanlators often does stop releasing when an actual english release is available digitally in a good pace with japanese releases.

Change email password just to be on the safe side. Make sure no device connected to your local internet is compromised. Give a Malwarebytes scan to your PC and look up your IoT devices (if you have any) to see if they had any history of vulnerabilities.

Do NOT use same passwords on multiple sites, or at the very least, salt your password based on the site. (add characters based on what site you’re visiting). For maximum security, use a password manager like KeePass.

Do NOT use a similar password to your very crucial passwords (your email, goverment sites etc.) anywhere no matter what.

Inform macys about your account being compromised; if your credit card was charged; issue a chargeback.

Their troll slogan has to be “Let’s turn the frogs gay”

You can’t really expect to find your account’s stealer unless you have some legal authority. There are all sorts of middlemen from all around the world in acquiring the accounts and selling them on forums. Finding the person who stole your friends" account is like finding the same thief that stole from you in a holiday trip in another country, selling their stolen goods.

Speaking of; you could research where some database leaks are dumped to find out where these deals are happening. Can’t link any bc of instance rules.

You should visit [email protected]

Instructions unclear, wanted to serve a pizza for my vampire friends and now they’re dead.
