I’ve been using a pi3 for about a year as a full time VPN on my cell phone and laptops. 3 is only 100mbit eth, but I’ve had almost no issues with it. Connects fast, no problem streaming HD video or cloning huge git repos. Maybe when I get h

Ive had a WireGuard install running for about 6 months on a pi and as far as I can tell it hasn’t been a bottleneck. Plenty of spare cpu and bandwidth. And I’m using the 3 which only has 100mbit Ethernet. Granted I don’t generally watch a t

Exactly. And daydreaming is death when you don’t have a steel cage around you.

The best thing that learning to ride a motorcycle taught me is “always ride like everyone is actively trying to kill you”.

Tangential, but it appears openwall.com is on several of my pi hole blocklists. I'm guessing its because of the tools they offer?

Thanks to all that ruckus I discovered Ripcord and have been enjoying how snappy it is. Not pretty but works well for me.

I’ve been using a projector as my only tv for years, and even during the daytime it’s still usable. It definitely is better in the dark, but usually I don’t even close my blinds during the day. I’ve had to replace the bulb once in about 4 y

If it’s interesting content people are willing to put up with some less than user friendly practices, I’d wager.

After 12 years of catholic school, I don't recall anything specifically, although I bet some would argue the commandment 'you shall not commit adultery' might cover that. What I do know is there is a ton of stuff the bible re

Glad I'm not the only one. I never had a problem with formatting code in slack until this release. And the hotkey (Shit+Cmd+C) doesn't work for me, although that might be my window manager interfering.

Most of the changes they are touting as improvements sound horrid to me. Amazon...? WiFi? Every park Ive been to is already crawling with tourists with selfie sticks, or that one guy who thinks I want to listen to his Spotify station. Now i

It’s very depressing, I also TA’d in college and ended up grading one of the mid terms for a programming class I had the previous semester. I found a group of students who clearly shared some code over gchat or something... weird variable n

At one of my previous gigs there was a big push to get out of the colo and into the cloud, part of which because of perceived “cost savings” vs running our own hardware. I think most of it was “everyone else is moving to AWS”. All I know is

From what I recall from various forums and reddit threads it was not just users who generated sexually explicit content, but any streamer judged to be a “thot”.

This was SOP for me when I worked as the receiver in a supermarket from ~2007-2011. It’s a shame, I must have thrown thousands and thousands of books away, instead of donating them to a library or something. But then again, I guess the libr

I only recently watched python for the first time this year and really enjoyed most of it, but you’re right. Almost any scene that featured a “Chinese” person made me cringe.

No screaming red banner, but each bucket does indeed get marked with large orange rectangle that reads “Public”. It’s easily noticeable. In my limited experience, a lot of the open buckets problem comes from the fact that access to * is the
