I used to use qbittorrent because it had so many search plugins. Now I want something I ran run on a headless server. I've found qbittorrent-nox, but I don't see anything about plugins in the documentation.

Has anyone used it, or can recommend something else that has search sources already configured?

Shadow libraries, sometimes called pirate libraries, consist of texts aggregated outside the legal framework of copyright.

Today's pirate libraries have their roots in the work of Russian academics to digitize texts in the 1990s. Scholars in that part of the world had long had a thriving practice of passing literature and scientific information underground, in opposition to government censorship—part of the samizdat culture, in which banned documents were copied and passed hand to hand through illicit channels. Those first digital collections were passed freely around, but when their creators started running into problems with copyright, their collections “retreated from the public view," writes Balázs Bodó, a piracy researcher based at the University of Amsterdam. "The text collections were far too valuable to simply delete," he writes, and instead migrated to "closed, membership-only FTP servers."

More recently, though, those collections have moved online, where they are available to anyone who knows where to look.

The purpose of this site, then, is to have all these libraries at our fingertips when in need of a certain text or book.

As Aaron Swartz put it:

"Information is power. But like all power, there are those who want to keep it for themselves."

We need to take information, wherever it is stored, make our copies and share them with the world. We need to take stuff that's out of copyright and add it to the archive. We need to buy secret databases and put them on the Web. We need to download scientific journals and upload them to file sharing networks. We need to fight for Guerilla Open Access.

With enough of us, around the world, we'll not just send a strong message opposing the privatization of knowledge — we'll make it a thing of the past. Will you join us?

Hi there,

As title says, I do not want to continue paying for every single streaming service.

I want to try MovieBoxPro, however it asks for an invitation code. Does anyone here have experience with the service? Is it worth?

In an age of censorship and book burnings, piracy is a morally legitimate and necessary form of historical archival.

I tried a torrent of photoshop 25 beta but it wouldn't installed. I also did some looking up and heard that it currently doesn't work on torrented copies on macOS, only on Windows and with GenP.

I have downloaded every season of MAS*H in beautiful 1080p, there is a problem however, the only audio track includes a laugh track. Hard for me to watch and enjoy.
I downloaded another copy of the series, this time in only 480p, but there isn't a laugh track, hooray!
Is there a way to remove the audio stream from one and replace the other?
Is there such a program?

I have a lot of iTunes songs from the 2005-2010 era that are all drm’d and can’t be played with anything but my iTunes logged into my account I purchased them with.

It’s 2023, I hate iTunes, but I can’t play half of my library. Does anyone have any idea what I can do? There are paid tools that claim to be able to do it but I’m not convinced…

I'm looking for a site where I can stream hockey games for the NHL, but requires a subscription/donation.

Essentially the legal way you need like 4 different services to watch all the games due to local blackouts (which is close to 100$ a month..). The alternative was stuff like sportsurge but the quality and reliability makes it frustrating when watching games.

I'm sure someone out there is streaming those games in good quality for a reasonable price but I just can't find it.

I haven't used it in a while, and as far as I understand, the current approach is to open the site via tor, register an account and get a custom domain for further use.

however, when I open the site url (from wikipedia) and try to sign up, I do not get a 4 digit verification code.

I tried one of my gmail and proton mails, but nothing.

Am I doing something wrong?

Has anyone used this? I haven't seen it recommended before in the typical arr stack and it seems like its infinitely more useful for those who are trying to easily maintain ratio on private trackers.
