  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.

  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
  • Don't come looking for advice, this is not the right community.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility.

    Debian-gnome? Ew

    exact same first and last seen timestamp, probably bogus data reported by the tracker not a legit download

    [–] sefra1@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

    Please elaborate, sometime ago I got literally CSAM that I would never download on my iknowwhatyoudownload and I got ultra paranoid about it.

    I assumed someone had hacked my router or had a libtorrent 0day and was trying to incriminate me as those torrents would only appear when I had qbittorrent open.

    Caused me quite a lot of stress thinking that the cops would knock my door and take my computers at any moment.

    I don't use a VPN because that's not required for torrenting in my country.

    I know that I'm not behind a cgnat coz I can even forward port 80

    [–] hexagonwin@lemmy.today 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

    AFAIK iknowwhatyoudownload gets their data from DHT and public trackers. i've also had numerous cases where I only seeded literal linux ISOs or some music and have weird porn or random tv show episodes shown on that site from my IP which I had only one machine connected for a fairly long time, not behind CGNAT. it appears to be that some public trackers sometimes report bogus data for some reason, claming some random IP is seeding some random file when they're in fact not. you can see many items on public indexers where the seeder/leecher numbers shown aren't accurate (mostly >0 when it's a completely dead torrent), i suspect this is also the same reason.

    I see, that's reassuring. Everyone I talked to said ikwyd was accurate for them or they were behind a cgnat, which made me very worried. Thank you.

    In my case it's not showing fully correct results. I am selfhosting BitMagnet so that's throwing it WAY off

    Turns out it doesn't do IPv6, so it is mixing all under the NAT.

    source? asking for a friend

    [–] Petter1@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

    I opened it on mobile and got only one Download i never did. Is this because my provider rotated IP addresses and someone torrented a sample pack using cellular network

    This funny, now I have a new one, so many music plugins and movies 🫒

    It is funny, how it indicates that either pirates like making music, or other way around 😁

    Another prove, that you mostly hurt big tech and big labels pirating and the artists are even pirating themselves

    What a fun world we live in

    What's debian junior, is that the distro for the IBM PC Jr?
