I’m sorry, but I cannot help you with finding pirated movies. Piracy is illegal and unethical 😉
  • That's just the nature of peer-to-peer file sharing. When you download a torrent from a large site your client broadcasts your IP to any of the available seeders. Seeders are just anyone who downloaded the torrent before you, and you generally download from many seeders for one torrent.

    Using a VPN or seedbox masks your IP. The actual torrent itself isn't "traceable" unless you continue to seed after its compleled downloading.

  • can you imagine an American grocery chain standing up to their vendors?
  • The Fred Meyer (Kroger) in my neighborhood has 4-5 armed and body armored security guards stationed at the entrance and exits. They ask to check your receipts at the exit and search all your bags.

    Its actually illegal to force someone to stop since its not a private club like Costco, so you can just tell them no and keep walking. Thats not well known though so you have stormtroopers checking old ladies papers and searching all their belongings.

    Oregon allows off duty officers to moonlight as armed guards so a lot of them are cops from various departments. During the 2020 protests there were a few Federal Protective Service agents patrolling the store.

  • Do you pirate? And do you justify pirating? i.e., what is your piracy philosophy?
  • I pirate a ton of stuff, but I also see more movies in theaters than most people I know. I'm lucky enough to live in a place that still has an awesome local video store that has a ton of hard to find, obacure films. Like shaw brothers kung fu films, or documentaries like Jefftowne.

  • Usain bolt racing in reduced gravity
  • Like everyone else I wanted to go to space as a kid. My dreams were dashed year by year as I picked up habits that barred me from going, dropping out of highschool probably the biggest one.

    Now I realize going to space fucking sucks. This video was filmed in "the vomit comet", a converted passenger plane that fly's in a way to mimic weightlessness. Its like being on a roller coaster dropping and a lot of people puke, leading to the nickname. The ISS is essentially in constant freefall, so your stomach will always be like that and you just have to get over it. It smells horrible because no one can take a proper shower. Taking a shit hasn't been perfected yet either so loose turds floating around is a common problem.

    You lose muscle mass and all your joints drift apart while you're up there. Just returning to normal gravity makes your entire body hurt inside and out. Reentry flights don't come down gently though, you go from nothing to multiple g's immediately.

    Space fucking sucks and I'm glad I decided to smoke weed instead of exploring essentially nothing.

  • What is gravity?
  • The James Web Space Telescope's Instagram page posted the phenomenon recently. Gravity from nearby galaxies magnifies space near them, allowing the telescope to see incredibly far away galaxies.

  • Shell Silently Abandoned Its $100 Million-a-Year Plan to Offset CO2 Emissions
  • A shocking number of our laws are written by lobbyist. Like you can't import foreign cars unless they're the exact model sold in the US or over 25 years old, because of anti competive laws created by automotive lobby's.

  • Bernie Sanders urges left to back Biden to stop ‘very dangerous’ Trump
  • For most people that's impossible. You need to raise an incredible amount just to run. In the state I live in elected officials get paid about $15,000 les s than a living wage for a single person, almost assuring that people need to be well off already.
