Rapidshare is dead... Let's switch!


Recommended Posts

Yea megaupload is good my friend owns that, he said soon he will be getting more bandwidth and speed put into that so soon it should be faster :)

Hate to tell you, but megauploads is the biggest garbage ever :x

Whenever i had to use it (because some idiot uploaded something there), it was always extremely slow - pitiful 20kb/s at the very best, most often even well below that.

So that's why I curse everyone who uploads there to bloody hell and back :angry:

There are certainly many other free upload options (besides rapidshare) with decent speed so you don't have to use this braindead megaupload garbage :x

I tried divshare and it's not bad (pretty cool actually).

BUT there is one thing - they will put ads in the near future, so let's hope they wont be way too intrusive.

Yeah somethings got to pay for the site unfort :crazy:

The only problem with rapidshare is it reads the ip address wrong.

It wont read the actual ip but rather the transparent proxy your isp puts you through. So everyone on your isp has an extremely small chance of ever downloading something. Yes, I'm pointing towards ntl.

My Rapidshare was due to expire 4th jan 2006. Used Paypal to make a further 12 month sub on 5th Jan 2006. Paypal had my earlier details for rapidshare and sent off the payment. Now I find that I have been credited to Rapidshare.de not Rapidshare.com which was in use till 5th Jan. Now get a receipt for payment from Rapidshare.de with a notice that the server is full so I cannot download. What gives? during last year there was no problem in de. transferring to .com. Now they appear not to want to help in any way. Any suggestions would be welcome other than sending them another 79 euros.

It is fairly obvious that the two are connected.

No wonder the net is getting to be like a Robbers Roost.

    • When will the Photos app be updated to remember the window size and position when reopened? They addressed this issue in a 2024 version of the app (though I can't recall the build number). Unfortunately, after that specific version, the problem persists! Please prioritise this fix in your K2 schedule. Additionally, the Snipping Tool has lost the ability to capture the Windows Taskbar starting from the 2024 version!
    • Same, never saw it on Android or iOS. Guess only some people got it *shrugs*
    • Anthropic pulls Fable 5 and Mythos 5 after US export control order by Pradeep Viswanathan In April this year, Anthropic launched the Claude Mythos Preview frontier model with state-of-the-art cyber and coding capabilities for a select set of companies around the world. After preparing appropriate guardrails, early this week, Anthropic launched Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5, its most capable AI models. Claude Fable 5 is for general users and comes with strict safeguards, while Mythos 5 is designed with fewer safeguards for cybersecurity and biology use cases. Today, Anthropic abruptly suspended access to its Fable 5 and Mythos 5 AI models for all customers after receiving an export control directive from the US government. The company received the directive from the government today at 5:21 p.m. ET, and the received letter did not provide any details regarding the national security concern. Anthropic understands that the government became aware of a method to bypass, or “jailbreak,” Fable 5, which might be the reason behind the directive. The order was issued under national security authorities and requires the company to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether they are inside or outside the United States. The restriction also applies to foreign national employees working at Anthropic. As a result, the company has disabled both models for all customers to ensure compliance. Access to previous Anthropic models like Opus and Sonnet is not affected by this government order. The company highlighted that it had developed strong safeguards to reduce the possibility that Fable is misused for tasks related to cybersecurity. In fact, many developers are complaining that the safeguards are going overboard. Additionally, the company worked with the US government, the UK AISI, multiple private third-party organizations, and internal teams to red-team Fable’s safeguards for thousands of hours. Finally, Anthropic noted that no testers have yet been able to find a universal jailbreak on Fable 5. As expected, Anthropic disagrees that a narrow potential jailbreak should lead to the recall of a commercial model used by hundreds of millions of people. It warned that applying this standard across the AI industry could effectively halt new frontier model deployments. Anthropic concluded by mentioning that it is working to restore access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 as soon as possible and plans to share more details within the next 24 hours.
