Not related much, but imagine being a citizen of ancient Greece having to walk for hours under killing sun, gushing barbarians’ eyes and slicing wolves on your way to the Olympic games only to be told by a feller with a lisp: “Excuse me, sir! Video recording is not allowed here.”. It’s a comfy time we live in actually.

#2. Use a VPN. Mullvad is great but they recently removed port-forwarding so if you care about port-forwarding I recommend going with something like ProtonVPN (paid).

#3. Bind your VPN to your torrent client. (I recommend using QBittorrent)

Maybe before suggesting these two, which are more go-to than they should be, you should have suggested checking their national, cultural and legislative view on piracy and, if at least two result positive, should have suggested to search for websites that are totally shady but look good and work better, that host downloadables either via torrent or direct downloads. Many nations have their own.

Feel free to consider the above as #2 and then go from there, my bud PRUSSIA_x86

Whatever you want, man, that’s the trick

Ignoring its existence is spitting in the mouth of pragmatism, and not in a good way

How about the good old Danny Trejo?

Who cares about performance when you can have performance

Bummer

Aren’t you?

What is the perceived problem, then?

Make sure to read this thoroughly this time.

[…]it’s almost always a manufactured limitation.

Doesn’t that sound like a good description of a problem?

I think I’ve only ever encountered a single website that didn’t actually technically work on Firefox[…]

There’s gonna be a hell of a lot more of them, buddy. You’re gonna have to hang your cat on your balcony to get an estimate of future weather if you want to avoid using one of them how-are-these-even browsers.

Imagine yourself as a homosexual man in Iran (should be easy). Would you say that hiding that big part of you from everyone and even go as far as marrying a woman you don’t even like just not to arouse suspicion makes the problem disappear? Just the fact that you need to spoof your useragent to view a shitty website, the developer of which would (should) die under a car one day 🤞, is a solid proof that you will soon be that homosexual man in Iran.

Doesn’t solve the problem tho, which makes editing the useragent nothing but a temporary solution not worth being smartass-megamind about
