I'll start. Did you know you can run a headless version of JD2 on a raspberry pi? It's not the greatest thing in the world, but sometimes its nice to throw a bunch of links in there and go to sleep.

Yandex is currently the best search engine for pirate stuff. You might need to change the language setting to only show english results, tho, as it gives preference to russian stuff.

If you're on Windows, you can block any address "forever" by running Notepad as an admin and opening the file C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts

  • Any line starting with 0.0.0.0 will automatically "fail" to find the page. For instance, 0.0.0.0 www.whatever.com will completely block that domain. It won't block www.whatever.co.uk or whatever.com, so you'll have to add one line for each top level domain. It's great for blocking the worst ad networks (the ones that leave 6 clickjacks per page)
