- Comment on Why do so many boomers and even some gen x believe so peristently that if you dressup and show up in person anywhere you will get whatever you went there for? 1 day ago:
Probably, yeah.
It’s how I found internship a year ago. It was really just vague “something related to computers”, so I ended up in a small PC repair and sale shop. I just asked the owner, and that was that. Although, since that was for free…On the other hand, the large company where someone else went in the past… they just told me “write an email to this person”.
But also, that was kinda rare. He usually wasn’t there, especially soon before I left, as he apparently ended up receiving some threats and a few mad people showed up after he helped organize some protests.

There’s parents who don’t care about which games their kids play.
There’s parents who only allow games appropriate for children, perhaps like Sims.Then there’s kids who play GTA like driving simulator.
And then there’s this one kid. - Comment on On January 1st of 2026, Texas will be required to give ID to download apps from the app stores. It doesn't matter if it's NSFW or not. 4 days ago:
I am sure you can rewrite it in some way.
“Software and services proxying traffic destined to public internet through another countries or states”, perhaps.
But from the lack of brain matter I’ve seen so far they’ll either:
a) Require blocking of ports 1194 and 51820
b) Manage to make routing illegal - Comment on On January 1st of 2026, Texas will be required to give ID to download apps from the app stores. It doesn't matter if it's NSFW or not. 4 days ago:

Check out racknerdtracker.com to see all past deals that can still be used.
If you just go for bandwidth, I guess 4TB for $10.29/year sounds good: racknerdtracker.com/?product=810%2F1-gb-kvm-vps-a…

- Comment on Cloudflare Tunnel? 2 weeks ago:
I only used their quick tunnels for some testing as it doesn’t need a domain and natively runs under Termux. For that at least it worked fine.
But I probably wouldn’t use them for anything serious. Typically you’re doing everything to avoid MITM, and now this is just the opposite of that. - Comment on Rise up 3 weeks ago:

As always, a difference. That’s it. That’s all. Needs no logic. A difference from main crowd. If just color of the skin is enough, then logic clearly isn’t needed in these cases.
If someone wants to find the justification for themselves, they will.

- Comment on Chrome VPN Extension With 100k Installs Screenshots All Sites Users Visit 1 month ago:
And sure as fuck never use a free one for anything remotely sensitive.
I think ProtonVPN might might be an exception here. They’re pretty trustworthy as far as I know, and have some free servers.
But my go-to is Mullvad, mainly for the flat pricing. I hate how most only have good prices if you buy a full year or so.

Hell, even Android ProtonVPN app can not only be used for free, but also without sign up:
If you prefer, you can use the app without a Proton Account. Simply tap Continue as guest. Doing this allows you to access all the free features available in the app. To access our premium features, you’ll need to sign in with a paid Proton VPN account.

Well, that’s exactly why they do.
You give them an iPad and they shut up, and that’s enough of a reason for many parents who shouldn’t be ones.
- Comment on Shit like this is why we need open source printers! 1 month ago:
One and a half bottle.
Seriously though, I don’t know what to do with it. I had to print something for school, around 200 pages. I printed them white on black, only consumed half a bottle.
I bought that on sale on AliExpress for like 70 cents (last I checked it was around €18).Anyway, quite funny when you take out the paper and have to let it dry. Also, I had to use 120g/m^2^. Standard 80g/m^2^ paper would wrinkle up and roll up while drying.

I’d argue it’s better to call it “sell” when you get paid to do so.
Just like I am not donating money to Lidl to buy sour gummy worms.
