i used NordVPN for years, even the security seems pretty decent, you never really know about outside factors, so i decided to just do this by myself. however, this comes with a number of issues and roadblocks that needed to be taken care of. such as: Ease of use wide array of locations for endpoints […]

Microsoft Windows getting worse every day, i used to make a joke like “the only way to keep Windows stable is if you put the Reboot command in the autostart folder” recently that seems to become more true than ever. the constant spamming is becoming increasingly annoying, like seriously what the fuck? i paid for […]
