Four years ago many popular torrent sites added an option to donate via Bitcoin. The Pirate Bay was one of the first to jump on board and still lists its address on the website.
Pirate Bay users began noticing that their CPU usage increased dramatically when they browsed certain Pirate Bay pages. Upon closer inspection, this spike appears to have been caused by a Bitcoin miner embedded on the site.
I don't mind it, I close the tab after I get the torrent anyway. They have to get money to pay for the server so I think this is better than bloating the website with ads (that most users will block anyway).
Connor Adams
Don't let Hiro hear about this.
Grayson Morgan
You're late to the party fucknugget >Piratebay is the only place where u can get shit from guys! xD
Logan Foster
Who uses piratebay anymore? Member only rapidshare groups or invite only torrent sites are the only choice for me. No malware, english only, good quality only for me.
Best invite only site that has regular registration openings is probably TorrentDay
Logan Reed
well it is in the uk
Jose Adams
>he's doesn't keep java blocked It's like you want to get infected.
Christopher Hughes
>fucking pirate bay >he isn't in a secrit club tracker
Tyler Davis
Boy you're fucking retarded
Tyler Rodriguez
last invite only torrent site i went to went down
Christopher Hughes
>this whole time >the first line of the article literally says this has only started a few hours ago >article was posted yesterday So "this whole time" is only one day? Not that it matters what I say here, everyone will only look at the OP and fall for the bait without doing any fact checking the link.

Levi Price
the miner used javascript faggots, do you even read
Sebastian Ward
heh, this
I have no doubt that chief chinaman will make Sup Forums a bitcoin farm.
Adam Young
Speaking of, what are some nice piratebay alternatives? Been a piratebayfag since my young days and am looking for other possibilities.
David Ward
He already has ways to make money you wouldn't like.
>mining via javascript That yields them something along the lines of 1$ per 2mil users every day.
Grayson Fisher
Pls ;_;
Nicholas Phillips
I genuinely thought I was the only one who actually knew to use that shit
Lucas Peterson
>>he isn't in a secrit club tracker he truly is a lucky man
Benjamin Brown
>still using the FBI honeypot known as Pirate Bay
Nathan Cook
>load up piratebay >search what you want >browse through 1-2 pages and het your torrent >somehow enough to merit an entire minute if this affects you beyond spending an extra dime in energy every time you pirate something, you're retarded. pirates stronk.
Charles Hill
lmao i just went to their site looking at my cpu usage and once it loaded my cpu dropped to 2% rofl (due to other background applications ofc) either way i dont care im still getting the shit for free
Austin Clark
>browsing any site without uMatrix/noscript not a real pirate then
Sebastian Sullivan
Better option than the fucking awful ads torrent sites usually run. Besides, you spend like a minute on the site before leaving.
Lucas White
>he doesn't block everything
Julian Davis
I do. What does that have to do with anything?
Jaxson Jenkins
java=/=javascript mr retardinho
Brody Collins
I've saved thousands of dollars thanks to [/spoiler]cgpeers[/spoiler] so it's ok.
Camden Sanders
rarbg and 1337x for public trackers
Xavier Martin
>being so autistic you can't discern context clues
Jaxson Kelly
Oh no, he didn't write "script" at the end. How will anyone figure out what he's saying now?
Ayden Murphy
clues about what? your autism?
Jace Young
the only context is he's retarded, and by extension, so are you. if you say something is written in C you don't "really mean it's C++". they're completely different.
Lincoln Robinson
>spending more than a few minutes on the bay
Ryder Cooper
I would imagine most people who download off the piratebay are savvy enough to realise that they're probably going to be infected with some mostly easily ignored malware from their misadventures. I know I just kind of assume it as a likely consequence of downloading free shit from sketchy places like the piratebay.
Not really a "checkmate" or even surprising situation and easily dealt with anyway.
Michael Jenkins
Does it have lots of vidya, retro vidya and books?
Leo Evans
java and javascript are two different things thats why no one refers to javascript as "java" because then they'd just mean java
William Lopez
Are you fucking retarded? Java and Javascript are two completely different things. Why would you say Java if you actually meant Javascript?
Christopher Powell
then why can you compile C programs with a C++ compiler?
Chase Roberts
Pretty sure I was in a thread discussing this topic beyond just yesterday
Caleb Lopez
>piratebay is the only source of torrents Idiots like you amuse me
Christian Mitchell
Wow.
Luis Rodriguez
No shit retard. I'm just saying you're being too fucking pedantic. It's obvious what he was trying to say.
Zachary Williams
unless the person is trying to infect you with some sort of threat that explores an OS vulnerability that is not yet known you are safe from pretty much any sort of attack on your system. As long as you don't run unknown files or extensions that is.
Oliver Moore
Please, stop this.
Luke Fisher
depends on what you want? Games there are plenty of sites, you can even go to reddit for the mega links they seem to drop when a new release gets cracked
Landon Gutierrez
He still missed any point, though.
Adam Wood
no block everything besides the bare essentials to make the website function
Ryder Martin
great argument C++ is just a subset of C C = C++
Andrew Anderson
C and C++ are very similar though.
Robert Morgan
How does one get into these "sekrit klubs" to get torrents? Or is it just a meme with kiddies with torrents with ebin malware?
Christian Rodriguez
How can you use that analogy to defend someone who obviously did not know the difference between java and javascript? Or do you actually think that the differences between C and C++ are in any way comparable to the differences between java and javascript?
Sebastian Perez
They do know the difference between Java and Javascript, you fool.
They also have the ability to use context clues and realize the conversation topic at hand is about browsers and a website. So we are obviously talking about Javascript.
And the comment >Block Java isn't wrong
Justin Wood
By not being a fucking noob.
Jordan Brooks
It's not pedantic.
Methylenedioxymethamphetamine is MDMA Methamphetamine is meth
Those are completely different things.
Logan Jackson
fight me right now kid
Elijah White
It is. Javascript is not Java. They are 100% unrelated. Using Java to refer to javascript is wrong. It can't be used as a synonym, since it is a competently different thing.
Jack Reyes
I tried but cannot block adxprts
Camden Phillips
>Using Java to refer to javascript is wrong. Nah, it's really not you autist. Literally nobody cares about this little pedantic thing but you.
Java = Javascript
Lincoln James
You are a retard. I study CS, I work as a software developer and you are fucking wrong. Do you call ecstasy meth? Because according to your logic, that would make sense.
Henry Phillips
So is a carpet a car?
Parker Fisher
We did this 15 years ago. While you were playing UT99 i was browsing your files. The price for pirating.
Brandon Ward
>uMatrix I'm using adnauseam which is built on Ublock origin, will i be fine?
Jayden Peterson
No, I call meth meth and if someone walks up to me and asks for meth, I don't question them if they want meth or MDMA because I can use context clues and tell the difference.
This is really simple that your apparently big brain can't solve. Language changes over time and normies will associate words to make it easier for them. You just have to get with the times, gramps. And whats a software developer? Do you make apps or something? >he doesn't have a pet car
Camden Kelly
Everyone knows Java and Javascript aren't the same. Why do you bother responding to people on the internet trying to get you mad? What do you get from explaining this to him? Please stop before it's too late, I beg you.
Jordan Martin
igg baby
Blake Wood
>he doesn't access pirate bay in a noscript enabled browser
William Jenkins
he got called out for being retarded now he's doubling down and pretending he was being retarded the whole time. it's a common and obvious tactic.
Cooper Richardson
>2017 >Piratebay >Javascript >Cryptocurrency lmao. Are all buyfags stuck in 2007 or something?
Dominic Bailey
I do both.
Brandon Torres
While downloading a backdoor.
Brayden Gonzalez
i have this site open for like 5 minutes max a week, i dont give a fuck, enjoy your $60 games + paid online
David Reyes
>tfw Gazelle has been down for days
Julian Lopez
feels like i play games for free faggot
Levi Lee
>And whats a software developer? Do you make apps or something? Too obvious.
Hudson Powell
How petty could you possibly be in order to believe that helping TPB pay for their service with a bit of processing power is a bad thing?
You are stealing something through their service ffs
Jose Rogers
>tfw been kicked out of gazelle twice because their rules for ratio are retarded
n-not like I pirate games anyway, h-hah
Cooper Hill
>search torrent >get link >close site I like how you laugh at TPB even though most of you faggots still use utorrent
Mason Jenkins
Because I hate it when people pretend to be smarter than everyone else. Also, you COULD use Java instead of javascript in the form of applets. So yes, it does make a difference. Also Why would you do MDMA if you have meth? Are you trying your hardest to get brain damage?
Joshua Sanders
If you don't understand the purpose of the app comment, you're stupider than I expected and obviously a CS grad.
Words usage change over time.
Blake Sanders
>Do you want to run this application? Yes. Yes they will.
Brayden Gutierrez
How does one even find sekrit clubs?
Joshua Sullivan
>all software is now apps Please please please go die in a fire. You don't have a clue what you are talking about. Is an operating system a fucking app to you? How about a server backed? Are plugins to exsisting programs also apps? PLEASE ENLIGHTEN ME!
Noah Morris
And if you knew what someone meant without a doubt, yet still felt the need to spend 10 minutes talking about how they're wrong, then you're a fucking pedant.
Colton Perez
They just changed it recently, seems a lot better. But yeah having to seed a torrent for possibly forever is stupid
Andrew Bennett
>all software is now apps Please please please go die in a fire. You don't have a clue what you are talking about. Is an operating system a fucking app to you? How about a server backed? Are plugins to existing programs also apps? PLEASE ENLIGHTEN ME!
For all I know, he could have been under the impression that TBP runs on a java appelt.
Caleb James
Yeah sure, why not. Sup Forums is my favorite app on the internet too.
Chase Fisher
This
I also dont seed
Brody Lee
lmfao
Chase Torres
>For all I know, he could have been under the impression that TBP runs on a java appelt. I mean if you're retarded I could see how you might think that.
Joseph Butler
>not using umatrix to block java script and other questionable items
I'd also recommend noscript, but I heard it advertises malware on its website, so I'm staying clear for now.
Samuel Baker
Your fault for using wrong terminology. Also I'm not retarded, since java applets still exist. Just accept that you are a faggot.
