mullvad works with tailscale

bind the client, but also be sure that it’s locked down to force everything to go through the VPN as well
preferrably with a VPN that will continue blocking traffic even if the entire VPN client is closed
- Comment on Add a third, larger bar for "knowing the right people" skills 1 week ago:
You need to have that level of skill to get a job, because 99% of available jobs have recruiters that want you to kiss their asses.
maybe things wouldn’t suck so much if companies hired based on who’s the most qualified only. Instead of going off a set of instructions bigger than a phone book of the entire world

before you needed a cable box, you could plug the coax cable directly from the wall to the TV, so starting the splitter from the wall outlet would work like I said

Pretty sure splitters were allowed as long as they didn’t split into another home

Here’s what proton Lumo could find about the allegation you just brought up with no evidence
Brendan Eich—co‑founder of Brave—has publicly disclosed one political contribution that often comes up in discussions about him: in 2008 he gave US $1,000 to California’s Proposition 8, the ballot measure that sought to ban same‑sex marriage in the state. That donation was made years before Brave existed (the browser launched in 2016) and was aimed at a social‑policy cause, not at supporting the browser or its development.
There’s no record of Eich (or Brave Software) making a monetary donation to a third‑party organization specifically to promote or fund Brave. Instead, Brave’s growth has been financed primarily through:
Venture funding and private investment – early rounds led by investors such as Founders Fund, Pantera Capital, and others. Revenue from the Brave Rewards program – a portion of the Basic Attention Token (BAT) ecosystem that shares ad revenue with users and publishers. Partnerships and affiliate programs – e.g., collaborations with nonprofits like Japan’s “Code for Everyone” (Minna no Code) where users can direct BAT earnings to the cause, but these are partnerships, not donations from Eich himself. So, while Eich did donate $1,000 to Prop 8, that contribution was unrelated to Brave and did not serve to support the browser’s development or promotion. The browser’s financing comes from venture capital, its own ad‑revenue model, and strategic partnerships rather than personal charitable donations from its creator.
So he donated to a group that also supported prop 8. To be perfectly clear, I don’t think any marriage sanctions by the government needs to be a thing. If you want to be committed to someone or even more than one person, as long as you’re all consenting adults and you’re all keeping the sexual things you do with each other private and out of sight of anyone who doesn’t want to see it, you do you

Brave Browser’s CEO is an anti LGBT+ bigot.
what did he say that makes you think that? Do you even know what he said? or are you going to be yet another person who has said that to me who never answers that question?

the moment that Brave stops working well is the moment I stop praising it.
unlike chrome and firefox, it’s easy to turn off the crap in brave, the options to turn those things off are right in plain sight and easy to figure out
I’m not so sure how politics got into a web browser with integrated adblocking though. Supposedly the creator of Brave was fired from mozilla for being a bigot. But no one who says that has ever been able to tell me what he said that was so horrible that he had to be fired. Which leads me to believe it’s either a flat out lie that didn’t happen at all or it was blown out of proportion
on top of that, Google’s war on adblockers is more than just blocking you from accessing youtube, there’s also lots of google-funded propaganda about the makers of adblocking software and the software its self. But it’s not just google funding that kind of propaganda it’s all the other malware companies funding it too.
what do I mean by “malware companies”? all online advertising is malware and blocking it should be considered part of any security setup

The big railroads are laser focused on short term profits these days
every company is laser focused on short term profits, none of the executives care about long term sustainability because they get obscenely large severence packages when they get fired or if the company goes bankrupt from their stupidity
not caring about the big picture or what might happen in the future is why everything sucks

My commute to work would be A LOT longer if I wasn’t able to work from home.
Traffic is a fucking nightmare between where I live and my workplace, parking is even worse. I have to have a truck with all wheel drive and 4x4. (It’s pretty neat, I can lock and unlock the differential whenever I want.) to be able to get around during the wetter and colder seasons. that’s not compatible with the parking spaces at my work
