You'll find that with any major VPN. The IP addresses they use to proxy your traffic eventually get flagged and blocked by lots of major players. Which is why VPN companies cycle through them quite often. As others have said, you'll either need to switch servers (and thus ips) or figure out another path.

I don't use mull but most have a way to exclude a given url or site from the tunnel if you need it. i.e. the site will work for you but it's coming from your own IP and unencrypted.

I set up Bunsenlabs on both of my elderly parents computers and then basically automated login stuff to the sites they use, pinned those tabs. Blocked all ads and trackers. Set Firefox to auto open on boot. Basically made them a Linux version of a chrome book where everything they need is in the browser and already active, no mudding around.

8 months later zero complaints from either of them.

Do your research. Birth rate declines as cultural stability and wealth increase. Period.

The person said they'd pray for you because they thought you were a dumpster diver i.e. that you were gonna eat out of the trash so that's what happened there. And so... It was also probably just a bag of food waste going gnarly.

It's actually really funny to me that a cop has to go look in the funky bag. That's a better use of their time than a lot of things they get up to of a day. Nice one!

I read somewhere awhile back their platinum donors gave a certain tier (10k or 100k or whatever it was). To be clear I'm more than open to being surprised here, I want Ladybird to succeed. I just resent Shopify being involved in any way, I'm a little bit petty after slogging it out at that company awhile because I know what they're all about.

Starts about midway down their page at ladybird.org

You may have misunderstood. It was Shopify who did the big NFT play on their platform. I don't know much about the Ladybird team, I'm not trying to throw shade on them.

I mean I hope Ladybird devs do a great build and go their own way without being corrupted by their donors and all that, don't get me wrong. But whenever I see that dumb shopping bag logo I get the no feelings.

You can also read up on how the vast majority of Mozilla's funding has been coming from Google for a very long time, and draw your own conclusions from that fact.

Shopify (i.e. Shittify) being their top donor already has me looking sideways at this project. They'll invest in anything they think they can get an edge with and if something starts to happen they'll fuck it up and wallstreet-ify it as fast as possible if they can.

Their (Shopify's) guru founder Tobi made a huge NFT play that went absolutely nowhere while I still worked there. They spent a lot of time and money on it, right before they laid several thousand people off.

I'm in testing and almost ever fucking week I'm trying to QA a release cycle while they're pushing three last minute features and fucking with the backend, meaning all the frontend stuff I've already tested needs done again.

Yep.

Obligatory Bunsenlabs plug. Nice light Debian based distro with no DE. It cleverly uses openbox wm and tint2 and some other tricks to make it feel like you have one though.

Confirm it runs awesome on potatoes.
