I’ve had people think since my mastodon account ends in todon.eu
they think I’m like a secret agent, but too stupid to notice that the .eu
would give me away. It’s Qanon-level of thinking, of how there’s secret clues everywhere that only they can see but the shadow cabal left them there for the truthers to find.
I hope he finds a missing guard rail and falls to his death.
State-owned media censoring art is only bad when the other red white blue flag country does it.
Terf island strikes again.
I personally use AirVPN. I detest the software client. It’s open source at least, but it feels like it was made for Windows XP and just ported forward.
That said, it supports Wireguard, so making my rpi log into the VPN anytime it goes offline is simple. Same for my laptop and phone.
Decent rates, good ways of dealing with per-device things, easy to lend the account to people who need a VPN, and often has sales.
I have tried a seedbox before, but the bottleneck is the last mile of my home internet. I just have a Raspberry Pi 3B+ hooked onto my router via ethernet. I just log onto qBittorrent and tell it to go as I sleep, and turn it off when I wake up. The downloading is done already onto a spare laptop drive I have, and then I watch it via Jellyfin or sneakernet it over to a friend.
I won’t say a seedbox is useless, I think it’s great, but due to how my living works, it’s not great. I’ve waited several minutes for a few PNGs to download, game updates often take hours. Not even counting how the actual fucking wind slows down my internet, due to the copper wiring being on poles like electricity. And I live in a place with so many windmills due to the natural features of the land creating daily wind storms from 4 PM until 7 AM.
I really do appropriate the advice however!
One of those dudes who you knew he was in something you loved, but never could remember quite which one. Because he was lovely and blended in every time.
RIP to a wonderful actor. I was looking at his Wikipedia page not that long ago.
My internet isnt fast enough, My average download speed for the entire place is maybe 18 MB/s, and 0.5 MB/s upload.
Torrenting helps solve the problem as I can just tell it to download in chunks and then turn it off when I need more leg room on my copper wire internet from 2003 that AT&T doesn’t change.
I have some of the slowest speeds where 4G Data is a massive upgrade, so when I need to offload some jpgs to discord or something, its faster if I just send them to my phone and upload that way.
With the debate, I’m not swapping my vote for Biden. It’s “not all there, can still hold a valid and truthful talk, but not as racist” or “lying fucking piece of shit, who’s brain is melting, and hates way more people” as the two options.
Biden is the saner option, but holy shit what a bad debate. I was flummoxed on why Biden’s team just allowed it to happen. Faux News is probably lapping this up like a dog on a summers daty.
That’s it mainly. Port forwarding improves my torrenting enough to where I get better reliability.
Wonderful software, easy payment, great rates, but lack of port forwarding is a major fallback. I understand it was due to a very minor chunk of bad actors, but that minor chunk was hosting CSAM and other horrible internet-accessible things, and no way to track what traffic is where, means they had to remove the feature for the 98% of good faith users.
But I almost refuse to use AirVPN’s software. It’s so… weird. I’m thankful they support wireguard with zero issues, so I can just use the default network manager and apps for Linux/Android, but that client interface is so backwards compared to Mullvad and iVPN.
Still miss port forwarding.
“Fine, if you’re not going to vote Biden, at least vote down ballot. Primaries and local offices are the next wave of politicians.”
[Funds into primaries to remove progressives from office, backs conservatives because of “electability”.]
“Oh uh, sorry. By the way this is you, the pleb’s fault, not the rich we gladly accept. Maybe next year we won’t pull the football out of the way when someone pays us to?”
Can’t buy products if the products aren’t for sale. That’s why they keep doing it. It lets people blame the Russian government and people on buying it and the American government and people for failing prohibiting the sale of it.
When the simple solution is: Don’t allow companies to sell products to your enemies when it’s war.
HIPAA violations aren’t state, they’re federal.
It doesn’t help Adobe has software patents for their products, so anyone who makes a similar program has to either live in a country that doesn’t recognize the “right” to claim you invented math, or be risk being sued.
Jesus Christ, we learned that fixing the economy via tariffs was bad in 1930. Like holy shit, tariffs are nearly universally agree by every field of economics to be shitty for citizens, businesses, and then the country. It makes no one inside want to buy anything but the simple basics, even with the basics now costing much much more.
I am not a “free trade” person, but this is not how you “Make America Great Again”. Even Ronald Reagan and Dubya didn’t do tariffs as a replacement for other things.
I’m going to say it. I was trying to be funny on the internet. I apologize.
If someone is unaware of piracy: Tell them.
If someone is aware of piracy and doesn’t care: “I don’t really know, I just got it off of a torrent site.”
If someone is aware of piracy and cares too much for a company they don’t work for: You can ignore them.
I am, and they wouldn’t care in a draft. I’m a suicidal weirdo who refuses to harm anyone, I barely have the will power to harm myself, let alone others stuck in similar situations.
I just will say anything to get out of service of a war.
