Starbuck milkshake is like tobacco
  • wdym? i notice them either way. i consume them because i want to taste them. like when i want to taste phosphoric acid and caffeine, i drink coke. if the taste didn't matter, i wouldn't go through the hassle of getting them and just drink tap water and eat plain toast or rice

  • I'm so sick of every single medical-related question people have online constantly getting spammed with 'talk to your doctor!!!!'
  • there are a great deal of people who don't go to the doctor even if they should until it's too late. i have people like that in my family. repeating to them they should go can actually prevent disability or death.

    therefore i think you should both, give advice, if you have any, and remind them to go to the doctor.

  • Very nuanced issue
  • this is stupid, because it can be (and probably often is) both, a genocide and a complex issue. acknowledging the complexity of a situation that grew 80 years into this doesn't mean you swipe an ongoing genocide under the rug or have to be complicit.

  • How can I prevent my PC from connecting to the internet without a VPN connection?
  • There are probably multiple ways. You could configure your Linux firewall to only allow the VPN interface for all destinations different from your LAN or you could make sure the default gateway is set to a VPN IP in the route config.

  • SSH through VPN
  • You would either configure the Linux firewall of the router or server to drop everything on the SSH port not from the VPN IP/interface or change the ListenAdress in /etc/ssh/sshd , but be careful: Don't lock yourself out!

  • SSH through VPN
  • The SSH port can be set to just accept connections from within the VPN.

    However, what I meant is: VPN does allow for more than SSH. Let's assume something like you allowed your girlfriends phone to use your wifi, but she uses an app with a Chinese backdoor. The Chinese hacked your network printer which is available to all using the wifi. Your linux CUPS printing service talks to the printer and gets infected with a worm, but being linux it's confined within the things the cups user can access.

    At that point the attacker/worm has no access to your personal files yet, except for what you print. Nor does the attacker/worm know about your server.

    Now when you use just SSH it will likely stay that way.

    If you use VPN though, it will allow the worm/attacker to find out about the existence of the server and send network traffic to your server. Hopefully, that doesn't get them far, but it's an additional attack vector they get.

    I think the dollar sign doesn't show in markdown code blocks

    I saw this funny code block I linked, but it's missing a dollar sign when viewed in Sync.

    I don't even know where to report bugs and if its github I won't because github is becoming cancer and i deleted my account.

    If your movie starts with a flashback, you suck

    If you make a movie and it starts with a scene that would chronologically happen after the next part of the movie, you're an asshole.
