    Printer ink. I got a cheap canon printer and drilled holes in the ink cartridges so I can refill them using generic ink for 1/1000th the cost of what the printer companies charge.

      That’s 3d printing files right? Where can you pirate them and what wouldn’t be on thingiverse?

        Depending on your political views you could download open-source files for guns in case they get taken down

        There’s a ton of commercial/locked-behind-patreon stuff, usually around things like RPG scenery or figures and such.

        Like, an immense library of shit that’s not free.

            I don’t have a specific place; just some of the private general-purpose trackers I’m on will occasionally have someone come by and dump a pile of STLs from various places on them.

            (The private part, unfortunately, means I can’t actually share more, sorry - fight club rules and whatnot.)

            Check out kemono.su / kemono.party. They’re a patreon(among other subscription service) archive site that makes use of crowdsourced keys. It’ll initially look like 110% porn, but you can often find other patreons there if you search those specifically, such as those for 3d printing stls. It can sometimes be hit or miss whether they properly archive downloads, but they’re usually a worthwhile option.

      Educational content. I’ll get udemy or pluralsite content if I’m studying a topic. It has helped me earn certs and stay informed on different tech.

          Its been as easy as searching stuff like YAML or AWS on tracker sites. There is a surprising amount of content. I even got some cool cooking content from Master Class

    Can you explain pirating of unraid licenses? I have already paid for one but didn’t know this was possible

      There’s a crack of it running around that tricks it into thinking you have a license. Of course idk if they also changed something nefarious.

      I ran it for a while before I decided it wasn’t worth the risk and also run more Linux now

    I don’t think I’d like to admit to anything. But during my research, I found large compilations of leaked passwords, sheet music for not so popular music instruments, vintage software and abandonware…

    Apps that have what I think are unfair payment structures.

    No, I’m not paying a > hundred dollar subscription for your app with server-side features I didn’t ask for.

    Might be controversial, but I pirate OnlyFans content (porn). I ain’t payin a monthly subscription for that shit. Telegram is pretty great for that.

    Comics (though it probably falls into ‘basic media’), well over 1TB at this point either way.
