Oath, I started reading comments and when I saw a 5 part example, that was then corrected and added to, I peaced out. No health system, private or public, should require a 1500 word essay response to “How much do I pay for this procedure?”

Terrifying. OP- I sincerely hope something changes for you guys over there because that insurance process is lunacy.

But that is no longer a niche community for my specific interest. Tai Chi, Muay Thai and BJJ are all martial arts. They are not alike.

Nothing changed with Helldivers. The game is still blocked in over 100 countries and people who rightfully purchased the game still can not play it. Sure we don’t have to create an account, but that was annoying -not an actual issue. The real issue was thousands of people suddenly losing access to their game because Sony wants conversion.

Sony made a social media post. They didn’t fix shit. But now the backlash is gone and the countries are still blocked, they can silently reinstate the bullshit in 3 months time.

Are we talking easier than Plex+ VPN and torrent? My buddy can access all his content anywhere he can login to Plex. It just means pre-downloading.

Genuinely curious if it’s worth giving up an already setup Plex server to look into this.

The linked wiki page mentions enforcement is rare, but reading on it does detail they have enforced the law. They did this by killing the man AND the child he was raping. That does sound like a fun time for all involved, I would love to visit!

You are only as safe as you let yourself be.

I’ve had no issues with most of the sites in the mega thread, and if you utilise a bit of common sense you should be fine.

Get a VPN, download Malwarebytes and check the torrent comments before you download anything. New torrent with zero comments and no way for you to verify? If it’s not a site you have grown to trust, give it a miss for a week. Even if you do trust the site, if something in your head says “this isn’t right”, just wait or find an alternative.

Most other content is easy because hiding malware inside of a movie torrent is more difficult and easier to detect. Games require you to pay a bit of attention because I can name any malware I want “setup.exe” and a lot of people will mindlessly open it expecting a game to install.

For what it’s worth, I used FitGirl when I was a student and didn’t have any troubles with her packs. Not sure if anything has changed in the last ~4 years though.

Aussie here. Using Firefox and UBO, but with default settings. I downloaded the extension, popped it on about 4 years ago and haven’t done anything since. I’ve had the same experience as you - no video delays or pop ups.

Could we just be “lucky”?
