If you aren’t strictly concerned with having it losless you can check out yt-dlp and download straight from youtube.

Mastodon i guess.

Just putting all your stuff in one big .7z so you can unpack it to directory then scan them all w/ AV.

http://phrack.org/issues/71/6.html#article here’s the original paper for the intrested.

He didn’t, malware guys use UPX and it’s true that antiviruses scream bloody murder when they see it. It’s also true you can’t see what’s inside unless you have special tools to do so. UPX also has one huge downside, it’s its RAM usage, due to it’s inner workings it’s unable to use optimisations that normal binaries can like page sharing.

They will not because it wouldn’t be profitable to them.

Tidal and tidal-dl. You can ask me for stuff.

Depends on country you happen to be in. If it’s Poland or eastern Europe noone will give a damn. If it’s Germany then you might be screwed. If you’re on a good VPN you should be ok even in Germany.

I’ve found a old CD and put it up on Internet Archive, it’s a place for old stuff to go.

If it’s not a 3rd world country ofc.

Sounds reasonable, but they won’t be able to take it out, they would only be able to not send new movies there.

Friends in other comments suggested that the file is 100-300gb size, it’s quite a lot of RAM if you asked me, but not much for a harddrive. If i were to design this machnie would store the movie heavily encrypted on a harddisk and store keys in RAM. Sb ealier mentioned you need special keys from special compamy to decrypt it so it would be doubly encrypted, one key stored in RAM and another inputed by technican. Ofc if i were to design this i would try to make it piratable by introducing some “accidential” vuln.

Yeah, there’s no need to pirate at the cinema when you can pirate at the studio. Anyway how in my Lord Satan they made that file that huge, it’s 12K resolution or what?

Now i wonder what it does when battery dies, whether it wipes itself or not. And where it stores it’s keys, in TPM or in RAM or where.

afaik audio hookups are recording of radio broadcasts for impaired not unauthorised rips of media used in cinema or recordings made using some tricks with wires and clamps.

I2P makes anti-hacking server protections go mad. You first need to check whether your servers TOS doesn’t say anything about port-scanning or hacking.

Sounds cool!

Sadly, no. You can open https://github.com and look for name of service you’re intrested in.

yt-dlp does a great job at ripping on majority of websites. If yt-dlp can’t rip something then likely there is service-specific tool to do that i.e tidal-dl for Tidal (hi-fi music service). There’s also a hardware method that involves cheap chineese hdmi splitters (it needs to be a cheap one, b/c they lack support for DRM) and hdmi capture card. Sometimes it’s DVD or blu-ray ripping.

I mean efficient clients that are both easy for non-techy ppl and their 4GB of RAM.
