From the article: “Unsurprisingly, this skyrocketed searches for the best VPNs. According to a SlashGear report sent to Mashable, searches for “Texas VPN” jumped by 1,750 percent in the past day. It also spotted a 1,600 percent increase for the phrase “How to access Pornhub.””
My isp uses cg-nat, and many others do too, so source ip is hidden from most except for my isp, which I have a contract agreement with.
As someone that manages networks and security, you know what piques my interest? When I see hosts using vpn. I look up the host using the service, the service in use, and see what other interesting things are happening.
I don’t see a path forward that doesn’t start with the US government making the change first. They are one of the only employers that don’t have market competition.

They are not. Other vendors are just as expensive as the new VMware pricing. Only options for cheap VMs is going with a solution that most 3rd parties won’t support.
Yeah I hosted some apps because my “@home” service wasn’t capped at 128k, so I was getting 5mb up/down. Would spend a lot of idle time shooting the shit with people, lots of regulars.
I was watching a film yesterday (went in blind) and during the opening credits I saw something along the lines of “Special effects artist for the Creature”. I had no idea the movie was going to have a creature in it before reading that, so when it was eventually revealed later in the film I was kinda annoyed that I knew it...

I agree, we should be providing these things, but you need a magic wand to get them done. To think it’s simple, easy, or straightforward to combat homelessness isn’t helpful because every solution requires money, time, physical space in amounts that are nearly unimaginable.
To start, find money, time, and space to house 60,000 people in Los Angeles that need local access to unique healthcare and, due to their circumstances, require unique security services too.

I will always vote and support opportunities to fix this problem but I’m well aware that society may never be able to fix it beyond a few percentage points.
Sometimes the moisture sensor needs to be washed out with cleaning solution/vinegar, or replaced.
Condensation dryers like this one, or heat pump models, don’t cook clothes like standard hot air dryers. They might not feel 100% dry but by the time you fold them they are.
I think as a child I got viruses from one of the ads, you know, the ones would put on the side of the site. We had to call in a guy, to clean parents’ computer. I felt really guilty and never touched those ads again....
I’m on this and noticed right away that I was seeing things such as thinking a small shadow moved. Also made me a lot more assertive. Talked with my dr about it and it hasn’t progressed further.
Sadly it does wonders for me. I had problems renewing my Rx and after two weeks I could tell I was having trouble breathing.
I can’t believe I played sports at all through high school considering I likely had undiagnosed asthma.
