2·8 months agoI’ve personally encountered some hybrid torrents on public trackers. Even if you only have the v1 hash, your client fetches the information of the v2 version from compatible clients, which is pretty neat. Maybe this was done by people trying to promte v2, but it is more likely that they used qBittorrent to create thier torrent, since if you use the newest version, the default option when creating a new torrent is to create a hybrid torrent.
You could embed the videos via WebTorrent and simply seed the torrents from elsewhere.
Webtorrents can simply be played in the browser, there is an example on their website.
Better publish the torrents elsewhere, so that you have more peers. Use a VPN or a seedbox provider (those ignore DMCAs for the most part) to seed yourself.

4·9 months agoGive me Gen 5 Pixelart. I’m begging you. Don’t give the Unova remake to ILCA. Give it to Square. Make it look like Octopath Traveler and the Live a Live remake, please.
Since this seems like a preventable issue for me, I wanted to disable the Set As Desktop Background… option in Firefox.
That was not as straightforward as I thought it would be:- Settings: nope
- about:config: nope
- userChrome.css: The Internet, and LLMs tell you yes, but actually nope
What you have to do is create a
policies.jsonfile and put that somewhere…
iknowwhatyoudownload.com is pretty unreliable. It lists some torrents downloaded from that IP and then likes to add some torrents (mostly porn in my experience). I’ve tested this with many connections over the years, and it’s not just sharing/rotating IP addresses that triggers this.
(My use case for iknowwhatyoudownload.com is mostly to see what public torrents other people have in their seedboxes.)
Also, I wouldn’t worry too much in Germany unless you’re downloading the latest YTS release or something. There are a few horror stories out there about being sued, but they are mostly exaggerated and not recent. That said, your setup sounds very solid and you should still use a VPN.
