Do as I say, not as I do!

This is why piracy is actually a fundamental human right. Because if we left everything up to companies, they would do whatever the fuck they wanted and hide behind the legitimacy of being a company which in most peoples eyes makes them inherently "right".

Fuck wasps

So he just whipped it out for fun? This just gets worse as more details emerge

Only like 8 years too late for this one bro.

FBI testing heavily damaged the firearm before Baldwin’s team was able to examine it for any potential modifications, and authorities failed to photograph the individual elements of the firearm beforehand, the defense had argued.

Looks like he's still sticking to his "the gun just fired by itself" defence. Which is both sad and confusing as he pulled it out on set with the intention to pull the trigger for the scene. Whether it went off on its own is moot as even if it didn't, he would still moments later have pulled the trigger. It's not like the gun flew out of hits holster and shot Hutchins.

The FBI and an independent firearms expert found the gun functioned normally and would not fire without the trigger depressed, but Baldwin’s defense team has argued that the firearm was prone to malfunctioning.

So you admittedly used a known, malfunctioning gun? How is that better or even exonerates him in this case? I guess based on his history with finance, he got one of those bargain basement lawyers to build his defence.

The entire set was a gong show and this is what happens when you don't follow the proper safety rules and bring in a bunch of unqualified people because you stiffed the former crew for pay. Sad that an innocent person had to die.

Not that the over/under debate was even a thing, but this should convince those diehard lunatics not to hang their TP improperly!

Not the best patent to use if you want to settle the debate. This one from Wheeler is the nail in the coffin: patent

It also shows why it was over and not under as at the time, the TP holder was a hanging wire, which kept the paper against the wall. Not protruding out like todays hangers.

Dynamite in water is the same basic principle used for sea mines. History has taught us those actually work. With the bullet, it’s more about surface tension which makes sense as falling from a high enough cliff onto water if you don’t land right is nearly the same as falling onto concrete.

Cool stuff regardless and I always found their testing to be quite spot on, scientifically.

It’s a song and dance on macOS and Linux but yes they do: https://protonvpn.com/support/port-forwarding-manual-setup/

LOL. Oh no some random dude made a list a long time ago. Oh no. A clone of what? Because rarbg was shutdown a while ago. Maybe think for yourself.

Also, the site looks nothing like the original rarbg, so I guess they failed there to. It’s another website linking to torrents, nothing more. I’ve not seen a single thing suss about it and I’ve been using it for months.

There is always something you can do about it. Always.

My fav was if you could shoot someone in water. Turns out that just 3 ft. of water was enough to stop a 50 cal! So as great of a film as Saving Private Ryan was, the opening scene where bullets wiz thru the sea killing soldiers was pure fiction.

Visit yandex.ru. It’s not the main Yandex domain just go visit it. Bro. Please. Stop.

Only 15% 🤨

Gotta at least have a name bro lol. Without a name what do you want us to do?

But if you don't have that, you will want to find some movie clubs in Maltese and ask around there. You can also try to find some Maltese movie groups too. One thing I've found is that there's always a group interested in everything. Vintage vacuums? Yeah, there are people that deal in just them and likely know every vacuum made between 1920 and 1960. You just have to find them.

When you have the name, find out who their distributers were or find out what studio produced it. Then reach out to them.

Sadly most go bankrupt so the originals are lost or even destroyed. There are plenty of indie films with some decently big names that end up this way too (I've been trying to find a decent copy of "Live Free or Die 2006" since it was released but sadly that movie looks to have evaporated despite having some huge names attached).

At this point, DDG is basically Bing, which heavily regulates piracy. Most often searching for a list of scrapers won't even result in a search return. I know 1337 is pretty blacklisted.

You should be using something like yandex.com for your search queries as they are one of the last ones I've seen that still return pretty unfiltered results.

DDG/Bing, Google, Ecosia (Bing), Yahoo, all of the US based search engines have long filtered torrents or websites known for piracy. Places like steamunlocked or steamrips have also been removed.

Except that no good VPN does this anymore (I believe Mullvad was one of the last to pull the service and cited massive headaches due to CP violations). So if you find one that does, it's most likely pretty sketch or just not that secure.

BT protocol works thru both parties. You have seeders and leachers (called peers). Both need to make a connection but how that connection is initiated and opened is important. If a peer initiates the connection and has their ports open, you're good, regardless of your own setup.

Unfortunately not every seeder does this (for various reasons). And that's when having your ports open makes a world of difference. Because if the peer also has their ports blocked, you will never get a successful handshake between the two of you.

On torrents that have hundreds of peers, you're likely fine; they'll be plenty that can initiate the transfer for you. But when you get obscure torrents with only a handful of peers, you're likely fucked. I'm over simplifying for the sake of discussion.

Every website is safe or not safe on its own merits. Their location makes little difference as far as you're concerned despite the people here replying that Russia can redirect you (news flash: every government on the planet can; it's how DNS works). Russia is far easier of a country to pirate from. And that's the most important part to you: how a government treats piracy. The US is a far less safe place because they favour corporate greed above all else. Russia, not so much.

I'm sure there are some here who could debate this endlessly but you need to treat every website as its own sovereign space. Failing that, you also need to take the area it's in into consideration should you have any legal disputes. For example, let's say a website is hosted in a country that has a lax view of cyber law enforcement and this site is selling images you took as photographer. You send endless DMCA notices but because they don't really have a governing body to handle this crime, your photos are never taken down. Contrast this to the US, which actually does enforce such laws and will actively penalize and even shutdown hosting providers, your DMCA notices are taken much more seriously.

None of this impacts piracy. And if you give out your CC number to any pirate site, US, RU, CA, you run the risk of it being compromised. The rest really doesn't concern you.

Some have claimed that Russia redirects websites, etc. but again, that has nothing to do with piracy. And they certainly don't steal every website and send you to their own versions via DNS redirects. That's insane. Now if you want to say that disproportionately, Russia has more scam websites, I can believe that. Or that their country doesn't really use the advanced encryption and security measures to protect your private details (CC, name, phone number etc.), I can believe that too. But to claim that Russia itself is doing a ton of shady shit to trap you seeding a torrent and then sending the KGB to assassinate your family... that's some real tinfoil hat stuff.

Just use the standard protective measures you would use anywhere else (VPN, never give out CC or real name, etc.) and you'll be fine.

I prefer yandex for piracy. If you search "Furiosa x265 torrent download" you get pages and pages of hits. Run the same search on DDG (Bing) or Google and there won't be a single torrent hit because their search engines have long removed any pirate related content and monitor for it to protect their investors.
