Colored button stands out more than white.


There are even companies selling lists of IPs for all sort of behaviour and characteristics. Just adding one of those is trivial.
Though google has a lot more data and engineers so they could just create a better one themselves.
It is a constant cat and mouse game between VPN providers and other actors. A few IPs get on a list, they try to find others, repeat


In their defense a very tiny percentage of users even open options and of those an even smaller actually change stuff.
Maybe slighlty different for Firefox as probably more power user use it than other random programs. But basically if something is not enabled by default, it doesn’t exist.
Testing doesn’t get security updates as quickly as unstable, or even stable sometimes.
For desktop I run debian sid (unstable), despite the name it very rarely breaks. And once in a blue moon when it does it gets fixed in a few hours/a day. Usually it is just some package that doesn’t play nicely with something else, so not like it is unusable during that time.
The unstable part is that they do not guarantee that it will work, it is still more stable than most other distros and you get new packages.


There are lots of companies selling data, just one of them is a list of known VPN IP addresses. Updated every X days. Just plug that into your service and it gets a lot harder, but still not impossible, to use with a VPN.


It will just be a few approved sites that you are allowed to visit, and just by chance those sites are the ones that pay the goverment the most! Those sites will have records in the approved DNS, that you can not change. Other DNS requests are blocked, along with everything else that isn’t approved.


I am kinda turned off by how awful and hacky it is, but sadly it is used everywhere. And the Facebook ties is another big minus.


Left: start/stop playing music via xmms2
Right: open a zenity file selector to load music into xmms2


Yes, but 1000ms latency is super bad. No service has anything even close to that high.


It is rejected, for now. But that could change, only really takes one massive game to do it to open the floodgates.
U don’t think it will happen, but what if GTA6 did it? They would be big enough to be able to pull it off, and most of their revenue will probably come from online anyway, so adding a base game subscription could make sense for them.


Very much depends on the game though. A bit of lag in strategy/city builder/etc is not really an issue. But in a competive shooter it is a huge deal.


Levitate? Do I look like some priest? I just blink away!
Or more likely, hit blink, it bugs out and you go half a meter backwards instead… But then you can always ice block or slow fall to save the day!

It is always the warlocks that are the problem.
Signed, a mage


Getting a replacement SIM from the phone company is often shockingly easy, just a tiny bit of social engineering. And then you have access to the number and everything that 2FA “protects”


They also know that just a tiny tiny percentage of users will go into settings, and even less actually change something.


I used (g)Vim on windows back when I used that
That is good advice, however sadly a lot of install scripts are basically: download this script from us, and pipe it to a root shell.
I would say it is a tie between Andersson and Svensson.
