P2P requires at least 1 person to have open port forwarding. Ideally, everyone has it open on their VPN. The more people start recommending vpns without it, the more torrents as a whole start to die as everyone I inherently becomes a burden on the system.
Airvpn or Private internet access seem to be the good options nowadays, MAYBE protonvpn if you can separate the product from the owner, due to the CEO making inflammatory statements on his socials. That’s a call you have to make for yourself and your own threat model.
PIA (Private Internet Access) seems really good. I am currently finishing up a 2 year discounted Protonvpn subscription but am reevaluating it as a viable option due to recent political posts from the CEO. As far as the service goes it was great though.
Advertising for mullvad harms the peer2peer network. (They blocked port forwarding and won’t be bringing it back)
Sad to hear as a long time Toyota fan, but really not that impactful personally. The cars from Toyota have really dropped off quality wise post 2019, and used market purchases don’t give any money to the company.
Wasn’t this in news cycles back in July? I feel like I’m going crazy here.
Pennsylvania has plenty too. Yes you will have to commute or work from home, but often that’s life here in the states. Yes we are being outpriced and our quality of life is trending down, but there is still housing for those trying to get by with tempered expectations. I’d rather move to Mississippi and own something than rent my whole life, but that’s just me.
You can still find sub 50k homes, but you will have to temper your expectations for the area and condition. Can’t be afraid to learn a few renovation tricks and get your hands dirty!
The idea of infrared pupil trackers is terrifying.
Imagine the tracking potential for insurance companies, law enforcement, etc…
I know this is offtopic, just the first thought that comes to my mind :(
What??? Where did you see this? I would assume the mobile market is still skyrocketing.
It does not, but I don’t sign into any Samsung/Google things and replace every system app with one from F-Droid including the launcher. The experience is fairly similar to my old pixel with grapheneos like this. I am sure it is far cry from as secure, but I am realistic about my threat model and am willing to make trades to be more sustainable and convenient. The only other difference is the system ui skin, which does its job just fine IMO
Typing this on an samsung xcover 6 pro right now. Costs less than 200 used, has a removable battery, up to 1tb micro SD card support, and a headphone jack.
Here’s a much crazier bug report that has been open for 14 years: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=627771
Mullvad disabled port forwarding. Bad for torrents. That was when everyone I know stopped using it.
I also find cruising on the highway with other safe drivers enjoyable, but maybe that just makes me car brained :D
Cars feel fine anywhere but a city. There they induce so much danger anger and waste.
sys + v can be bound to bring up clipboard history if you are using KDE!
Problem is a lot of them would agree with you on the first one, and say all the billionaires are in fact democrats. It’s impossible to even backwards reason with the right/YouTube/fox mind…
Yeah, how dare he be born in a different country/not have the finances to leave. Poor + bad + ratio, he is just as bad as Trump.
Don’t you see how fucking idiotic you are being? Bad things happen to a country when the people overwhelmingly lack empathy. You are a prime example of one of those people.
The Americans who have a problem with this administration and are also gun owners are unfortunately rather few in numbers.
Maybe not massive issue for individuals yet, but I guarantee anti piracy orgs love everyone switching to a VPN that inherently weakens the torrent ecosphere.
