A college buddy saw a newspaper ad (this was in the 80s) for a medical experiment project for $500. He went and it was for attempting to impregnate a chimpanzee. He thought about and said he’d be willing to do it only if: nobody ever finds out about his involvement, that the progeny (if any) be treated well, and he’d need a week to come up with the $500.
ISPs don’t usually care about iptv streaming, it’s uploading that gets you in trouble. Unfortunately I don’t have much advice for providers as most are garbage unfortunately.
Why do you want to run IPTV through vpn? What country are you in?
The offsite NAS at the family’s house - how did you configure offsite access? Did you have to upgrade their router?
And you must enter password through a 2 character wide menu screen with only up and down arrows
I’d first change DNS servers to quad9 or something other than the default
Then I’d try accessing behind a VPN a couple times and a couple times without VPN to ensure it’s repeatable
If they are blocking it, very odd and annoying
That’s too bad. I joined because of piracy. But they are a bit rigid in their ideologies as one would expect from a niche tech community but this is too much. Where should I go next?
MySudo sometimes will get messages from services that block google voice as voip but not always. I’m thinking about a cheap burner line…
What does UK change?
I added a second one and had a lot of trouble. Years for them to coexist relatively peacefully. I also recommend people foster to ensure it’s a fit before committing, it can be difficult if they don’t get along.
And this is why lemmy can feel unwelcoming lol
It’s a joke on how off putting the computer nerds can be here to normies.
Ok but a common indicator of a drop shipper is all of the items I listed not just free returns.
Correct but eBay is full of shippers who drop ship from Amazon. You don’t want to go on eBay to accidentally end up ordering from Amazon.
Just gotta avoid Amazon drop shippers. Thousands of feedback + free expedited shipping + free returns = maybe a drop shipper.
Yes there’s a whole community making new games for retro consoles (played on emulators). There are original ones and modified ones (called romhacks) where they change and implement QOL fixes to classics. Like Pokémon has a whole set of romhacks, such as Pokémon Emerald Seaglass. Gameboy in particular has a ton. A $30-40 Chinese emulator can run it all.
If it’s a mesh system yes running wires would be a nice upgrade
Wired backhaul?
RIP what a hero. Anyone know of a replacement? Will these eventually stop working?
Honestly if you are doing only torrents, then using a debrid service works great. I have tried VPN, Usenet, and debrid. You copy the magnet link or upload the .torrent file and if it’s a popular file, it will already be downloaded and you can download from them immediately. Otherwise you wait a little bit for them to download it. Doing this does not require VPN and typically it is hosted at a fast server and will download as fast as your internet can go. It’s 3€ a month which is less than a good VPN anyway.
