Мой Компьютер

Кек, роутер starlink при подключении по SSH выплевывает такое

Выглядит просто бомбезно для нашего времени безликих плоских прямоугольных лепёшек

Правда подпружиненного флипа с кнопкой, как на прочих моделях, тут нет, поэтому приходится вспоминать давно забытое движение пальцами

Всратая дич, мне это надо

How to media piracy the communist way:

1. Download QBitTorrent
2. research whether media piracy is prosecuted in your region. If so, get a vpn, its incredibly cheap in comparison to a single streaming service. If not, proceed with 3.
2.1 start the VPN service and tie the VPN to QBitTorrent in the advanced options of QBitTorrent (Tools > Options > Advanced > Network Interface)
2.2 while in the settings, go to BitTorrent, disable DHT, Peer Exchange and Local Peer Discovery, choose "Allow encryption" and enable anonymous mode
2.3 use the torrent option of something like ipleak.net to find out whether you are leaking your actual IP, if so, you might have picked the wrong option in the network interface. Nothing to worry about, pick another option until you have the right one and no IP leaks.
2.4 now get a legal torrent like a random linux distro (e.g. linux mint), and check whether it only seeds and downloads when your VPN is running and whether only your VPN IP is shown.
3. in the top bar of QBitTorrent, click "search"  and then go to the bottom right, click "Search Plugins" and "check for updates". Enable all plugins. Now you can use the built in search engine to find practically all popular media you might want. You wont have to worry about viruses or anything as long as you only download video or audio, dont download exes or other executables. For those, do your own research.
