To be fair, I cannot remember a software where no anti virus program turned red. Those cracks always look suspicous to the heuristics.

Well you would just have to download it once. But install it 1000000 times. Sounds like a lot of work.

That has nothing to do with piracy or not. Its just a device to play media. You can use a firetv to 100% stream pirated content via kodi or plex and still have to see this shit.

Hi-Res scans of paintings and photographs. Like starry night from van gogh:

Would love a library of photos from Feininger or Salgado, paintings etc.

I would love a private tracker for art digitalizations.

Whats a slot light?

Good for you. It does not change my point though that a device which can stream media having ads not really has anything to do with more piracy.

Which OS is good for this? Which remote can be used? I use my Stick to launch several apps like Plex, Smarttube Next, ARD Mediathek (German TV series). Not needing anything more. But a snappy remote and support for various audio and video codecs is key.

Edit: unfortunetly doesnt work anymore

Before you upscale it is crucial to get the best rip possible. To my knowledge the best ripping and deinterlacing process is called QTGMC.

After that, experiment with AI upscalers. But the best Upscalers will only get so far when the initial rip isnt as best as possible.

I got a 4K Max one because it was only 35€. I want to upgrade to a shield pro successor which is overdue by now.

Get a used M1 Macbook Air. MacOs isnt restricted like their mobile devices. Its passivly cooled, relativly cheap, portable and also capable for more serious productive work.

Maybe the easiest but not quality wise.

Oftentimes anything copyrighted like warez, music and movies are called 'linux isos' to hide the fact that you are doing something shady.

Like: "I got a NAS with 20TB of Linux Isos to enjoy."

Thats 50€ a month, its ridiculous and a punch on the mouth for those who supported the product in such an early stage.

As a comparison, I am using an S20FE 5G which I got for 300€ two years ago. Thats 12,50 per month and it still gets updates. Sure thats no high end phone, but I dont miss anything, fast OLED screen, 500GB storage through sd card, blazing fast, good camera.

Install Android Studio on your PC and create a new empty app. Plug in your mobile and deploy that app. Now select that app as the second one for the lower half. It should be all black, if its all white, change the background color.

Or look if there is an all black app in the store, probably a screen tester app.

It does.

Make sure to use a vpn when your country cares about this stuff. Its not fun to pay 800€ for one episode of the fucking walking dead. (Germany)

I am very happy with podcast addict on android. Powerful, not the cleanest ui though.

Just a thought: these resources are great. But to be helpful printed stuff is way better because you dont need electricity for that.

And the network is way smaller since it only uses phones which have the tile app installed.

Everything which is aired on the public channels lands in the mediathek and you can legally download it for a while. Here is a handy search tool:

I think its great to explain the concept and even some details of the process. This removes the mysticism from the topic and someone who has no big knowledge on the topic may umderstand that it is a pretty easy process nowadays and can give up the mental image of hackerman with a black hoodie.

Use docker with a container which can only go online thru a vpn like transmission-vpn.

You could hookup a toplist into radarr: https://trakt.tv/users/g4zz0l1/lists/stevenlu-s-popular-movies?sort=rank,asc

That does not solve the problem. Its just an app installed onto the firetv. You do not replace the launcher or circumventing launch screen ads.

Ans reason I shouls look into iptv when I am not into sports?

Can you install adfree youtube on it with sponsorblock?

Sure. Buts its also an inside joke.

Its amazing once you start to realize how little you can watch even when you are subbed to all streaming services. In the years I used Netflix and co my consumption changed to 'I watch whats available'. Once I pirated again and joined a similar Plex server with a catalogue which contains pretty much every movie and tv show ever made, even international ones, it changed to 'What weird shit I really want to watch today'.

Even if would sub to every streaming service available to me (which would probably cost 100€ per month) I could only see 20% of the movies I have watched.

Samsung has this feature build in and its called 'Extra dim' or similar. Its a quick setting one can get when customizing the tiles.

I used to use third party apps too, but it was annoying that you couldnt grant permissions or install new apps without deactivating the dimming app since it was a security risk to have an app which draws over other apps.

Video or still image?

There is one private tracker I know of: DimeaDozen

Hard to maintain a ratio though.

Totally serious. Never knew there is a difference. Thanks for the explanation.

Never heard of geopdf but i found this:

https://help.locusgis.com/support/solutions/articles/47001094929-how-to-import-geotiff-or-geopdf

So you can convert your files with qgis (free) on a computer and than have a broader selection of apps like locusgis. You could also try locus (non gis) or osmand which is foss.

I heard they stopped port forwarding though.

Definetly get the base model, use a NAS for storage and just download more RAM

Third party apps like nova cannot go that deep into the system like good lock. You couldnt realy use nova and have great navigation animations for example.

I love my samsung devices as a poweruser because you can customize much more and they offer really useful tools which are missing when one uses vanilla android.

Also I would really miss the option to use smart tags which still arent available for pixel devices.

Thanks for the answer. If I remember correctly, this plugin works by accepting all cookies in the background. Is this correct?

If so, do you also have some kind of cookie cleanup policy/plugin? Or do you really dont care about cookies?

Use docker. There are docker images which have vpns and torrent clients inside. The torrent client only gets connected to the internet when a vpn connection is established.

This looks really promising. Not available on mobile though, but I will test on my desktop.
