My TV controller has a dedicated Netflix button. Around 2 months ago I sat on it and it started playing a movie. Turns out “meh, it seems about right” is not a good way to check your credit card statements.
I don’t understand it. I know Netflix and pirates but I see no connection. What is TF?
TF = The Fuck.
TF = (what) the fuck
Sometimes people drop the “what” part
I was hoping that it’s some kind of piratey alternative to Netflix.
I’ve stopped pirating more than a decade ago but streaming and “buying” content is getting worse and worse.
Now I’m just downloading older movies from YouTube and similar services or look it up on archive.org.
Pirating was quite simple in the olden donkey / emule / kazaar etc times. BitTorrent was simple at the beginning as well. Now it seems to be done via invite only forums and special rules and quotas.
IRC seemed complicated as well and I can’t bring myself to ever look into usenet because to me it was my first “social media” and it breaks my heart to see what it turned into.
Also it’s super weird because it’s not meant for this purpose. It’s like using twitter to share base64 encoded warez. It kinda works but it’s not meant for it.
There’s still tons of content available on public trackers. Just be sure to use a VPN so you don’t get nasty letters from your ISP. It’s not hard, just connect to the VPN and bind your torrent client to the VPN interface.
letters from your ISP
glad I don’t live in your dystopian hell hole.
I’m happy for you too
You can still download an entire blockbuster from piratebay.
Arr software and Jellyfin make it easier and accessing it convenient, but at the backend, we’re all still doing the same shit.
VPN yo ass up and download some movies, choom.

A Shadowrun reference in the wild?
Cyberpunk 2077 grabbed ‘choom’ and threw it into their lexicon so it has a whole new group of choomies enjoying it.
We’re self-actualizing a real cyberpunk dystopia.
But don’t use the pirate bay…bad place. Other places are much better and have good reputations.
Now it seems to be done via invite only forums and special rules and quotas.
This isn’t really true. Maybe you have that impression because piracy communities tend to be filled with snobs who constantly humble brag about all their private trackers and paid services. You can still find good quality versions of almost everything through public trackers.
Depends. Like OP I stopped pirating when they made Netflix available in Denmark, and like OP I’m also feeling the deteriorating device. But finding danish content in the public trackers seems a lot harder than it was in ye old days
TF = The Fuck
WTF = What the Fuck
I don’t know, Torrent Freak maybe? But that doesn’t make much sense,honestly.
nah its “the fuck” as others have stated
That doesnt make much sense to me either, but more than Torrent Freak
It’s like Jellyfin but with a red UI.
Netflix is a building in hollywood, near a pretty solid vegan mexican place and a cost efficient thai place last i checked. Right across from a historic fire station that i think does tours i kept meaning to take.
adfree experienceThey rent you DVDs and Blu-rays via postal delivery. I think.
Reminder that your local library likely carries Blu-rays and CDs.
MakeMKV is also free while it is in beta.
Technically. But it has been that way for years and I find it useful, so I paid for it.
