Look into the history of this news outlet.

Did they spread the lie of “WMDs in Iraq”? if the answer is “yes” and they’re not a legitimate news outlet

Avast isn’t what it used to be, stop using it

It could run 11 but MS won’t let me.

The stuff microsoft is making mandatory for windows 11 is good stuff. You can’t enable core isolation on hardware that’s not compatible with windows 11

Any PC running hardware that’s too old to have the features you need for 11 would need to be replaced soon anyway

there’s ways to not install it and there’s ways to get rid of it. Just so everyone knows. You can also use an app like simplewall to block any of the garbage in windows from connecting to the internet at all

any computer still using hardware that’s not compatible with windows 11 will need to be replaced soon anyway

Oh…so they just want to take all control away from the user? I won’t be buying that, I’m sure it eats up a fuck ton of bandwidth too

youtube shorts deflector?

Mullvad will sometimes have a delayed startup on one of my machines.

The sign-in only applies to the app.

It doesn’t matter which IP address you connect to Mullvad’s proxies through.

now we just need proton docs inside of the proton drive desktop client too

This is why perfect forward secrecy is mandatory even if you have quantum encryption on your VPN.

As for file storage, even if it’s quantum resistant, we may see a time in the future where you need to periodically re-encrypt your files to keep them a little bit less in danger

I wouldn’t know, I’ve had a paid proton account for a long time now

Maybe tailscale could help?

LibreOffice?

Proton Docs?

Just saying.

foreign governments to sponsor hacking groups to do this kind of stuff.

Foreign governments, in cahoots with the US

it’s a pain in the ass to get around this, make a throwaway reddit account with proton pass or some other password manager like it

When? Never, because this is overwhelmingly likely to be propaganda to manufacture consent for another war.

Remember 20 years ago when they said Iran was only a few days away from being a nuclear armed power? or when they said that same thing 30 years ago?

They keep trying to make everyone terrified of russia and china and keep talking like they want to kill everyone else on earth.

CNN was one of the outlets that said “WMDs in Iraq!” for my entire childhood and most of my teenage years. That alone should be enough to never trust them again.

your internet provider might be blocking connections to mullvad’s proxies

Do you have any other VPN to use as well? Like Proton or iVPN? See if the problem happens with that too and then that will rule a few things out depending on what happens

Then again, if you’re using wifi, maybe the connection to your router is being blocked or interfered with in some way by something in your house?

A very rare instance of two companies merging together being good news

Proton VPN, Mullvad VPN, iVPN, adguard VPN.

Any of those will do.
