Is it possible to keep youtube videos AND their stylish captions for myself offline?

The thumbnail image is a screenshot from a Youtube video, for a song. the lyrics in gold color are Youtube closed captions, they look cool and stylish right? This is common in videos of 4K scaled anime openings. Can I get these offline? I know I can download videos using yt-dlp, and include subtitles in the container using the `--embed-subs` flag, I think you can also download subtitle files in vtt extension, but VLC can't read them I think. I didn't include a link cuz it might become a hustle for dbzer0, but since some are asking here you go: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CXzoiiZo5LA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=StLX4kITjWU there were better ones (Kaguya-sama openings) but I can't find them anymore on Youtube, stupid copyrights, thus my obsession of hoarding what I like Update: [@Majestic@lemmy.ml](https://lemmy.ml/u/Majestic) provided the solution, 1- download the subtitle file in vtt format using yt-dlp: ```yt-dlp --skip-download --embed-subs https://youtu.be/5i3pX-2NLKk?si=waYB6Jv4d6gxsVuh``` 2- use [Subtitle Edit](https://www.nikse.dk/subtitleedit)'s batch converter tool to convert the vtt file into .ass format 3- now just import it on VLC while watching your downloaded video, the subtitles will appear in the same styling as on Youtube, additionally you can embed them to the video container using ffmpeg

How do I know if a certain movies uploader on 1337x is trusted ?

I heard that it is possible to inject video containers with malware. I also heard malware is rampant on 1337x. And I don't have an antivirus to scan files for the moment cuz I'm on Linux, also it would be too much for me to upload the movie to virustotal. I found a release that suits my need for the movie I'm looking for, but I don't know if I can trust this uploader (TGxGoodies). the number of seeders is over 120 for the movie. the reason I'm reluctant is that a very active uploader on 1337x: IGGGAMESCOM is labeled "Vip Uploader" despite a simple search on reddit shows that there are victims for their malware-injected uploads.

anyway to block lemmy.world?

pure liberal cringe. And propaganda. When I tried to post the propaganda that I believe my post was deleted. Also a lot U.S.A drama of politics, like any of that matters. How do I make lemmy.world disappear from my feed in dbzer0 ?

Is cwhub.eu a legit database for cracks and crackers ?

Yesterday I was looking for a niche game and I almost downloaded it from IGGGAMESCOM (which r/piracy claim is not safe). Anyway while searching I stumbled upon a cwhub link for the game that shows the date when the game was cracked and the name of the group (in this case it was DARKZER0). So is cwhub the database that everyone is using ? Cuz searching on r/crackwatch isn't efficient I think (reddit search), and you need sometimes to be sure that you're looking for something that actually exists

Last week, I re-took the national baccalaureate exam this year, Algeria. and this came up in the English exam.

here is the full subject for context: https://imgur.com/a/HmNaMIu You have to choose one of 2 exam papers. Would you choose the second subject ? the one revolving around piracy denial that is.

where do people with pirated copies of games meet to play online together ?

I recently got into fighting games (like: kof - street fighters - Mortal Kombat - Guilty Gear...etc). Now you can pirate the game, and you can play it online with someone if the two of you agree on using same pirated copy and Hamachi for example, but where do you meet these people to play with? are there dedicated forums for online games lobbies? I don't even know how people with steam copies find opponents online, I just see them mention "the steam lobbies". But from observing people's reviews on their online experience with kof XIII, I understood that it overwhelmingly sucks. I took fighting games as example here cuz I already know fps games like Counter-Strike 1.6 have sufficient sites like this: https://www.gametracker.com/search/cs/ I remember we used to play pirated Yu-Gi-Oh! using Hamachi, organized through facebook groups, so is that the only hope for these situations? praying to find a facebook group for organized matches of your niche?

the encryption keys, why can't the government just sneak on them?

disclaimer: I'm just asking to get understanding of the theory behind network traffic encryption, I know this doesn't happen irl most likely. Let's take https connection for example. I like watching revolutionary things on youtube and do not wish for authorities to know what I am watching, we accept here for the sake of showcase that google won't sell my watch history if asked (LMAO what am I even saying?). So if I'm not mistaken since youtube has https implemented, our communication is encrypted, the keys are shared only between me and youtube. But when Youtube shares the key with me/my client the first time, is that also encrypted? Wouldn't the same question keep getting answered until there is something unencrypted? I know this is a bit too much unlikely, but if ISP automated the process of gathering keys and decrypting web traffic for a certain site with them for all users, would that work for them? I'm taking https here as an example, while I have the same question for like VPN. EDIT: Thank you everybody. I am not a member of this community, but every comment was a golden experience to read!

have we defederated from lemmygrad or is it the other way around?

I tried to interact with lemmygrad using this dbzer0 account but I can't. They also seem to refuse accepting my signup request. when I tried searching "lemmygrad" locally, I found relevant only this comment from captain [@db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com](https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/u/db0) appearing on the attached screenshot. I tried to follow [the comment's post](https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/comment/2330075) but it is not to be found. Just wanted to know the lore.

I'm happy he did actually say it

 >This statement was made by Ubisoft's director of subscriptions, Phillipe Tremblay, who recently spoke to Gamesindustry.biz about the digital future and Ubisoft Plus specifically. Tremblay states that people eventually "got comfortable" with not owning their CD or DVD collections, and that a similar shift in attitude "needs to happen" in gamers.

Pirated video games SOURCE CODE

So there are multiple sites&groups that pirate video games especially on PC. I was wondering if there are places on the internet where you find source code for games especially the highly modifiable ones like Half Life 2/Portal and Skyrim. Or groups that crack into the source code of games (or even software in general), not only for PC maybe PS, XBox or mobile too, and share it. I just wanted to see some code samples of games or their engines, maybe I get hooked into video game design. Shout out to Valve for [sharing a lot about the creation of Half Life 1](https://github.com/ValveSoftware/halflife)

how do I get desktop or at least browser notifications when someone here replies to my posts?

I'm on Ubuntu using Firefox browser. I get the notifications from reddit on my desktop. On the top toolbar, there is a bell icon where I can find unread notifications from telegram, firefox (from the sites allowed to send notifications), the package manager (about software updates) ...ect. Whenever someone replies to my post or comment on reddit [a notification with sound appears on my desktop](https://imgur.com/a/UZJ2bPo), and even if I miss it, [I can see it if I click the bell icon](https://imgur.com/a/0H6HGhz) on the top toolbar, which has a sign to indicate there is a notification I didn't click. I'm setting permission for lemmy.dbzer0 to send notifications to "allowed" on Firefox, but I receive nothing. For instance I would forget to check replies to my posts and comments here. And it becomes even worst since I have an account in more than one lemmy instance, so I have to check every one of them for updates on discussions I missed!

why aren't r/piratedgames here? I thought they migrated to lemmy too

Not to start a war, but I think the place here is better for free discussion of games piracy. the lemmy community they site on their subreddit is literally dead, has just one or two posts. It would have been good if a rival community to r/piratedgames appears here on dbzer0 too, I mean r/piracy is still there, but this place is better, right ?

I know this is not how dbzer0 works, but can you help me get cs 1.6 working on my linux system ?

I downloaded the game from soft32 (this file used to work on the old days). I installed both WINE and Lutris, but the game runs like sh**t. I get .NET and Vulkan errors from Lutris&WINE. Can you give me a newbie friendly guide for the right way? I'm tired of scrapping the web and it doesn't help that I have limited data. My system: Device: HP 15 Notebook PC i5-4210U OS: Ubuntu MATE (basically ubuntu 22.04) GPU: Intel® HD Graphics 4400 (integrated) & Nvidia GeForce 820M (I'm not even sure which of them I'm using).

[discussion]: regarding the best OS for a pirate

This post started out as a question, but throughout two days of googling it became this compilation of links. I will tell you everything worth mention that I found, share my plan with you, and expect some critics (for the infos of course, please not for the silly hyperactivity of my ADHD brain over such a trivial matter 🥲). Tell me what do you think, is windows 10 enterprise LTSC IoT actually the best OS for piracy? Is it Windows 7 for best fps with games despite DirectX11 being outdated? Or maybe everything could be done through Linux + Lutris&WINE for example? I'm moving out from ubuntu mainly cuz I still don't know where to get Nvidia&Intel Drivers from 😂 So the windows community would infinitely shame you for using Windows 7 because it has no more security updates. Also I heard you neither have support for DirectX12 nor optimization for SSD, So windows 7 isn't optimized for ex: gaming even though most repacks were released for it. I don't know anything about Win8.1 and my experience with Win8 isn't good, so I disregard them here. So it is Windows 10 or Windows 11, but both are bloated with ads, telemetry, useless apps, processes and services (why do I have Cortana!?) and forces you to update. Win10&11 presented what is called "windows as a service" instead of "as a product", a policy which sucks for us users. But I heard about Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC, which has minimized telemetry and non of the annoying apps, I don't know about auto-updates though, but I heard it doesn't receive them often. I also learned that I better choose IoT version of the later for longer support (2032 vs 2027 for non-IoT LTSC). Now I have multiple choice of guides: # Downloading Microsoft's official copies, debloating and activating them: 1- the [r/piracy guide](https://www.reddit.com/r/Piracy/wiki/guides/win10upgrade_activation/) which suggests [these two files](https://mega.nz/folder/ChNTDaiL#nNqH2PTfIzTLAEs8nc-U0w), which are both 2019 versions. But I'm happy to see the size is 3.78 GB, so I can burn the 64x on a DVD! 2- the [r/WindowsLTSC Megathread](https://rentry.org/windowsltsc) which sites to [this guide](https://rentry.co/LTSC), which again suggests [this friendly thread](https://rentry.org/fwt), and seems to be extensive and up-to-date. The [friendly thread](https://rentry.org/fwt) suggests [tb.rg-adguard](https://tb.rg-adguard.net/public.php) for downloading the iso. If you choose the options on [this picture](https://imgur.com/a/fkIcZ6d) then according to the files.rg-adguard.net database you're downloading `en-us_windows_10_consumer_editions_version_22h2_x64_dvd_8da72ab3.iso` . Not Enterprise Edition, so I think we just disregard this particular part of the friendly thread and download from [the pastebin in the Megathread](https://pastebin.com/qhiDBfT2). --->cons: This is a bit extremely hard, especially since I'm on Linux rn. 3- Microsoft Activation Scripts developers also provide [direct links to download ](https://massgrave.dev/windows_ltsc_links.html), without the heavy guides. But will I be able to uninstall Microsoft Edge for example later? This one might be the easiest yet balanced route for now. honorable mention: [This Russian site](http://nnmclub.to/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1584455), called nmclub, claims it offers 22H2 version of Windows 10 Enterprise IoT, but it is not LTSC I guess? # Modified Windows copies 1- [Ghost Spectre Superlite](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EXoBHxCvxlE) which apparently doesn't have an official site, rather an official Youtube channel (which I linked) but it is constantly updated on the [tech-latest.com website](https://tech-latest.com/ghost-spectre-windows-10-superlite-version/). the videos prove that the system supports android emulation well (I think, tbh I'm not considering this one, just included it cuz people who tried it speak positively about it) 2-[Revi Os](https://revi.cc/) I heard it has an active Discord community and has a GUI tool that allow you to enable whatever you want, 3-[Atlas OS](https://atlasos.net/) (this one is open source and has a [Github page](https://github.com/atlas-os/atlas) and is said to give the best gaming performance and least resources usage, I'm really considering it!). --->PS: as far as I understood, both Revi OS and Atlas OS are applicable on your installed win10/win11 using this open source project called [ameliorated](https://ameliorated.io/) which itself had [its' fixed Win10 1903 version](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nwkiU6GG-YU). 4- [Slimdown10](https://forums.mydigitallife.net/threads/slimdown10-%E2%80%93-turn-windows-10-22h2-or-ltsc-2021-into-classic-legacy-windows.86552/): from the mydigitallife forum. The creator states: >The tool eradicates all cloud stuff, telemetry stuff, spying, tracking stuff, UWP bloatware, suggestions, ads, etc by removing them directly from DVD media (before installation, not after it). It also integrates latest updates and turns Windows Update into manual mode (no more forced updates). **It is fully open source with no hidden stuff or blackbox features**. # using Scripts 1- [Win-Debloat-Tools](https://github.com/LeDragoX/Win-Debloat-Tools) Looks like the most maintained open source one out of them. Along with Sophia... 2- In [this reddit comment](https://www.reddit.com/r/Piracy/comments/rl3e3u/comment/hpdt831/?context=3), a user recommended to: >install Windows Enterprise or Pro, and use [Sophia Script](https://github.com/farag2/Sophia-Script-for-Windows) to remove the Bloatware that comes installed and use O&O [ShutUp10](https://www.oo-software.com/en/shutup10) to disable the telemetry and spyware that is possible. Because security updates are extremely ultra important when you are connected to internet.(?) 3- [privatezilla](https://github.com/builtbybel/privatezilla): This one seems lightweight and easier to use, but not up-to-date, idk. honorable mentions: - [This redditor from 2021](https://www.reddit.com/r/Piracy/comments/rl3e3u/comment/hplcsq1/?context=3) seems confident that the three tools he mentions, combined, fully remove telemetry? - [winutil](https://github.com/ChrisTitusTech/winutil): an open source supposedly "One Tool for Everything" as the title of [the youtube guide by the developer](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vXyMScSbhk4) says. # my plan: - I will just download [the r/piracy 64x ISO file](https://mega.nz/folder/ChNTDaiL#nNqH2PTfIzTLAEs8nc-U0w/file/6sVhQQpZ), - burn it on a 4.7GB DVD that I have (probably using ubuntu MATE's Disk Image Mounter) cuz I don't have a USB rn, - Activate using MAS Tool, - Download Drivers Manually, - Maybe use either [Win-Debloat-Tools](https://github.com/LeDragoX/Win-Debloat-Tools) or [winutil](https://github.com/ChrisTitusTech/winutil) if I feel deranged. ngl, they got me sold just by having gui and being open source
